I'd like to apologize for not being on recently.
1. I feel stuck because of the constant grip of the Hunger Overhaul and my housing situation.
2. I got Starbound on Christmas, and, as such, am completely hooked on it already.

I heard what happened in relation to Kowgan, the full version. What I need to say about that is:
I Will not stays on a server where the Admin decides to use the OP privileges to curse players (without remove the curse) just for fun. This kind of troll behavior is something that I do not wish to experience, just proves the lack of maturity of those involved (and anyone who could intercede, but did nothing).
In addition, there is a very long delay in making a simple update, but every time I log in on Dolby, Steel is on-line playing something (this proves the existence of free time to at least update the server).
I rather prefer playing in a place with more maturity regarding commitment. I thank all the players for the receiving spirit and courtesy, but the admins and the server practically "expel me".
Please, remove my name from white list; I no longer want to play here.

1. One incident of joke-trolling (which, by the way, is allowed via server rules) and you leave? That is immature. Seriously, if someone does something to you that you don't like, tell them. If said person is using admin powers to do so... Well, okay, that's pretty darn bad. I'm sure whoever was doing that to you would have stopped. If not, you could get another admin to come in and fix it, perhaps punishing the player in question.
2. I'm sure few people want to update the modpack constantly, when there's a huge number of problems that could come out of that, including potential server-breaking bugs. Not to mention needing to delete all the mods and configs, then re-adding them all from the modpack file, after downloading said file. Besides, Steel doesn't run the server anymore, Q does, and they need to communicate the files and configs to eachother, not to mention fix any block/item/dimension/biome/enchant/etc id conflicts which can take bloody ages. Then Steel/Q needs to upload it to the download site, and who knows how long that takes. Updating isn't as easy as get new versions, "drop in, TA-DAH! It works fine with no problems at all!"
Go to ArcanaCraft or something. After your little outburst without thinking things through, I don't particularily want to see you on the server, as you sound extremely entitled.

My gawd, I take a leave of absence from Minecraft for a bit and this is what happens?? (Been hooked on FF:XIV, btw) Who trolled who and who went too far (if that was the case)?

1. The joke-trolling was me giving air and siyo potion buffs/debuffs via console.
2. The curse was legit, i did not use any admin powers to give him it.
3. I unfortunately lack the materials to remove the curse at this moment.
4. If you have a complaint with me, please say it to me directly. Not on the thread.
5. Both me and steel run the server, i just pay for it.
6. I have been dealing with some health problems and so have not been reliably available recently.
7. On a happier note, I'm working on a website for the server, if anyone has any ideas or wants to help, please PM me.
I'm sorry I haven't been on recently... In fact I haven't been Playing Minecraft for a little while too.... I've been hooked to some new games, including Terraria, and a few more. Anyways, I will be on either today or next week. Hope to see you all on!
Hey all, been busy with back to school and assassins creed 4 so I haven't had much time for minecraft but I am looking to go back soon especially since I go a new laptop for Christmas
Hey all, been busy with back to school and assassins creed 4 so I haven't had much time for minecraft but I am looking to go back soon especially since I go a new laptop for Christmas
That's me right there minus the new laptop. I did log on yesterday but nobody was on.
We should totally get Thaumic Tinkerer KAMI on the server next update. 'Cause I'm sure Steel would looooooove that.
On another note, I'm starting to get a bit Starbound-ed out, especially with the upcoming final character/world wipe. I'm mostly done with Assassin's Creed 4 for now. TV, as usual, ain't that great. Other games I play are being m'eh right now, one having severe server issues due to DDOS attacks. As such, I'm probably going to be playing Minecraft some more in the upcoming [insert time, probably equivalent to SoonTM] Hope everyone's doing well. I'll see you all on the server mayhaps at some point in the near future.
Edit: Aha! I claim this page in the name of... Errr... Dam </beaver> it appears I've run out of terrible jokes. Hmmmm... Errrrmmmm... Maybe..... Perhaps............ I give up. I claim this page in the name of page 76. There. Perfect.
So hi... I tried this back before AM2 and TC4 were added. And since this thread has been dead for the past 4 days - I'd like to suggest a mod - BetterStorage. Also another one. That one is purely purely for a new challenge even though I haven't played the new world yet.
Btw, Steelflame "would you kindly" update or just flat out rewrite the OP?
Guys... I... I think it's dead. Magipunk... Is dead.
Either that or my timing sucks... Probably the latter, as it's a well known fact that my timing sucks.
Nobody's ever on anymore. This server deserves so many more players...
It isn't dead. But due to some serious bugs, I can't get on at all. And a lot of players have gotten to the "its an old world" part, as well as some odd server tick lag which shouldn't be happening, which neither me nor Q can track, which causes game crippling lag when only a few players are on. I know for a fact Siyo gets on a ton still. I would get on if I wouldn't instacrash the server in a way I can't even fix with console commands.
So what I decided was that I am going to put up a non-official poll on what people want to do. If they want me to just leave the server as is until I have the barebones of a 1.7 update ready to go, and we reset then, and then again later, I'll do that (think what we did for the 1.6.2 update, effectively). If not, I'll delay and leave the server until the full modpack has updated, or at least the core of it, and do a full reset then.
Just say what you think in the thread, not going to put up an actual poll. I actually want to hear reasons behind both.
Due to the fact that this will be a reset (Especially if we do the double reset stratagy again), this would be a great chance to talk about any MAGIC mods you might want. I'll still use my standards of judgement, but I'll be more open due to this being a reset and the fact we will need some filler material while waiting on the big ones to update.
EDIT: Oh yea, in response to Slaggywolf talking about rewriting the OP... I hate touching the thing with a 50 foot pole. The Minecraft Forums have a very heavy handed tendancy to break long post, especially ones with a lot of links/images. I have had to fully rewrite the thing from scratch about 5 times. I don't want to do that 1000-2000 word essay again for no good reason.
Well I say that you should reset the entire server again right now. Mostly saying that cause I want my friends to play on the server - we need to play on a server with players again or we'll just abandon playing at all again. Otherwise I still think that the server needs to reset because:
A. Some people I know(and don't know) want to start fresh with no one having an edge.
B. I mean come on - I probably need to go about 5k blocks to get to a territory that's not settled and used up.
C. Somebody probably retrogenned - I hope not - massive lag.
D. Uh... uh... *scratches head* ...Ooh, I wanna play!I want BetterStorage - I would like to lock my stuff
Otherwise for magic mods I would never suggest stuff like the Sorcery Mod or Minegicka II cause those are way too broken compared to the stuff here. If you want a server destroyer then add Mystcraft
Regarding the original post, I would like for you to rework it and update it with new info - like updating the DynMap. And you can just Copy/Paste the information you need to an outside source and paste back it in here.
EDIT: We have a server PC just lying around doing nothing mostly. Not that it's my in custody.

A. Some people who have been playing on the server for a long time though would want to keep their hard work. What about those people?
B. Yea, at least if you follow a cardinal direction. Although a lot of turf is just "looking for specific world gen" such as the magical forest styled biomes, which are needed for some Thaumcraft things. If you head in a non-cardinal direction (NE, SE, SW, NW) you will quickly find unexplored chunks.
C. Don't think anyone retro-gend the mods. Pretty sure a big part of the issues is linked into how villages currently dislike modded structures (they can't plan around them correctly, and sometimes make them overlap... which causes chaos in the chunk data, which is what crashes it).
D. We had Mystcraft at one point. Lets just say the antics of the Dev at one point in our past has made me hate his mod. Pretty much, Forge updated an event to use a new tool they had. Literally a 4 line change to fix it on the Devs part, something he could hot fix in about 5 minutes. We had to update to said Forge to fix some very heavy handed crashes going on on the server for Thaumcraft, and..... Mystcraft's Dev pretty much gave us the middle finger, forcing us to run on a very unstable version of the pack as a result. IIRC, Q removed dynamap because it was causing some partial lag. It wasn't the primary source of the lag we have had, but it was causing enough to be a problem.

That's probably a good thing anyways. I imagine it was the main way thiefs planned their heists. Sit on dynmap, check out where players stay when they come on, get the coords written down, wait until they're off, and bugger off with their stuff. It made having a "hidden" base essentially impossible unless you're underground, anyways.
If anyone wants dynmap-like functionality, I suggest MapWriter, it lets you view anywhere you've been no matter where you are, like Dynmap, and any dimension too. Unfortunately, it's Waypoints are limited and it has no radar. Not to mention you'd need to remove Zan's from your client.
Not a magic mod, but it does miracles with your storage and inventory: Could we start packaging Inventory Tweaks with the pack? It's had some issues with Hunger Overhaul's custom stack sizes in the past, but they're relatively minor, and basically nonexistant if you keep food items seperate from the rest of your stuff and manually sorted. I used to manually add it every time I updated the pack, but I figured not everyone might know of it's majesty and utility.
Also, I vote Server Reset Whenever. Honestly, I couldn't care either way, so long as it's functional sometime in the future. Also, since the populace seems to be at an all-time low right now, have you considered trying to mess around with the mod setups to try and find the source of the tick/random lag issue? I imagine it's probably some conflicting mods or something.
Oh, on that note, I also vote Remove ATG For The Update. I don't know about you guys, but I miss deserts and biome variety. I'm sick of only seeing only grass and snow.
On a final note, have you tried writing the OP in an external editor or something, then copy/pasting it into the forums until it works? I sometimes do that with long posts, lest the forums bug out and not post it properly.
Heyo I'm back too! Its unfortunate that I was never really able to get on the server because of just raw lag. I am getting a new computer soon so WOOOHOOO!!! I'll finally get a decent fps on modded minecraft! And I can get into modding full swing. Cant wait for the reset. And as for mods…. please. I know this has been rejected a lot of times but…. Drop the freaking hunger overhaul. Please. And as much as I hate to do it, ATG needs to go. It seems to be a lot of mountains. and thats it. ALL mountains. Everytime I use that mod it's mountains. I miss having all of the simple plains and deserts, and having large oceans (though most people would disagree with me there), and last I checked (mind you a long time ago so don't hate if its been fixed) it has a hard time generating mod structures, and villages too. So yeah! Look forward to playing with y'all!
1. I feel stuck because of the constant grip of the Hunger Overhaul and my housing situation.
2. I got Starbound on Christmas, and, as such, am completely hooked on it already.

Curse PremiumI Will not stays on a server where the Admin decides to use the OP privileges to curse players (without remove the curse) just for fun. This kind of troll behavior is something that I do not wish to experience, just proves the lack of maturity of those involved (and anyone who could intercede, but did nothing).

I rather prefer playing in a place with more maturity regarding commitment. I thank all the players for the receiving spirit and courtesy, but the admins and the server practically "expel me".
