Hello Everyone, I have Important News for anyone in the United States. Recently a Bill, Bill S.978 was presented to Congress that will make it to upload videos of copyrighted materials.
Although this is a great idea the wording of the Bill is so broad that it makes it illegal to upload user created videos of video games such as Let's Plays, Red vs Blue, game tutorials, and speed runs. The only way anyone would be able to upload videos with games in them would be to contact the company and try to go through the impossible process of contacting them and gaining specific information.
I urge my fellow gamers in the United States to send letters to your local representatives in order to stop this bill and make them either get rid of the bill entirely or re-word the bill to be more specific.

Why do you want to join: I would like to join a server that is PvP, war-based, and seems to be quite fair when it comes to rules and the use of Lapis Lazuli.
Have you read the rules: Yes I have.
Anything else you want to add?: I'm a member of byak's clan returning from inactivity and have realized that our clan has moved from its old server.
I am really confused as to why they would do two updates with 2 days of each other, I mean like shouldn't they have done whatever they are doing in one update? It doesn't even say what was fixed or added with update 1.5_01
Oh well i guess we sit and wait because we have nothing better to do. I really wish I was on the server with my right now =P
