Here's a brilliant idea. You and your friends buy the damn game.

The server is up and ready for any new applicants. Hope to see anyone interested on soon :biggrin.gif:

Ex Cinere Surgimus
ECS-server
"Rises from the Ashes"

The Main Goal

The server has been online since August 31, 2011 and is still in it's first stages of creation. It is rebuilding itself from the ashes of the recently closed down Van-craft build server. The staff and many of the players thought it was time to open a smaller more dedicated server where we could just play Minecraft. The goal is epic builds, a fun/mature community, and a chance to get yourself known.


Our server is building a mature, strong community focused survival server, unlike some of the Minecraft servers today. We play to make amazing structures without the spawning of materials.

How does this work?

We keep the community like this by having an application process that isn't overbearing but can keep the people who just want to grief out. This application needs to completed to it's fullest potential. Once read and you are accepted you will be added to the servers permissions file giving you the ability to build. Before applying you can connect and survey the map.


The server runs Bukkit with a selection of plugins to ensure our players don't have to worry about the problems faced in normal SMP. Worried about thieves? Lock your chests, and door so those fools can't get in. TNT is also toned down slightly so that it is effective for mining but useless for griefing.

Donation benefits

All donators will receive a yellow [VIP] tag infront of their name and the following commands based on the amount donated.

$5 - a diamond tool of your choice, superpick and fly.
$10 - a set of diamond tools and a stack of items of your choice (no precious metal ingots or blocks), superpic, and fly
$15 - a set of diamond tools + armor and 3 stacks of items of your choice (no precious metal ingots or blocks), superpick and fly
$20 - a set of diamond tools + armor and 5 stacks of items of your choice (no precious metal ingots or blocks), superpick and fly

Tutorial on how to fix it yourself!

1. Stop server [obvious]

2. Edit WorldGuards config to disable TNT-explosion/ignition. This will stop the lag, continuous detonation, and prevent further damage to land/buildings/etc.

3. Start server back up and connect to check for TNT still detonating. If explosions have subsided go to affected region.

4. Use WorldEdit to regenerate landscape.

a. Be above target chunk.
b. Do //chunk
c. Do //regen
d. Profit

5. (optional) Back to WorldGuard and reenable TNT if you so choose.

If you so choose, I'll edit configs, etc. for you. Otherwise simple fix for a very BIG problem :tongue.gif:

I agree with Meapa. Crig000 is a bit suspicious with that kind of an offer. But just our opinions...

I'm happy to do (if you want) every bit of coding you need done

There is no coding to be done, only configuring... what are you talking about buddy? Also looking through your "offer" I noticed you made no attempt to use proper punctuation in anyway at all. That makes me even more skeptical of your "qualifications".

I believe I have fixed the problem for you. Fixed version right below here.

Cheers mate, we'll give that a shot.

Also reading about how you want them to be able to use buttons/switches etc. Residence actually allows you to disable letting them break blocks but let them use items. i.e - chest, doors, lever, buttons, etc.

Just give them the flag for that area and to learn how to use flags use the Residence wiki Believe me when I say you'll need that wiki for a while because the commands are this long all the time:

Command Examples:

/res create [zone] - Create zone
/res set [zone] build false - Disallow building in a zone except for zone creator
/res pset HerpyDerp [zone] build true - Allow player HerpyDerp build in a zone

Good luck! :biggrin.gif:

Try Residence out. Just a suggestion :wink.gif:

Click me for Residence download!

Why is this posted in Server Administration again? :dry.gif:

This is not the place to be posting this.

Dark clouds obscure the horizon. Fat droplets of grey water spill down from the heavens onto the blood stained streets. The lonely man stares from his window, safe inside fortress of solitude. Crazed parodies of former life hammer on the door. Vast skyscrapers of concrete and glass stretch out into the distance, obscuring the flashes of lightning. BOOM! Thunder splits the air. The man jumps, spinning, waiting for the dead men to come streaming up the stairs. But nothing happens, the solid metal door holding for now. The man turns, picking up his last supplies, a few chunks of bread, an old wrench, a small piece of apple, a mysterious piece of paper with some letters scribbled on it. He stuffs them in an old bucket quickly, the hammering at the door growing louder. The fluorescent lights above him start to flicker, the emergency generator growing weaker. The darkness grows nearer, the lights dimmer. The man steps neatly out of the emergency exit, sliding down the ladder into the darkness. Now is the time to run, to fight, to discover why. This time, the darkness won’t leave.


This map can either be used in a single player game or a multiplayer game. It is recommended for a single player game, as multiplayer can have lag issues. Fighting monsters with lag = incredibly difficult.





If you download it, please leave a comment of some sort. It helps raise support and will give us the confidence to keep going.



1. There is 1 (one - un - uno) rule: No building a portal or cheating!It is still in what you would call an Alpha stage of release: All the items and buildings are in, but we are yet to test and tweak the items.It is also just a demo. There is no escape, no story line and nothing outside the box. The full release will be much better!

As of right now, There are 2 dedicated people working on this project:

You are more than welcome to build *modern* buildings and send them to me via schematic (upload to dropbox/mediafire as a schematic using MCedit). We will add you to the contributor list and maybe use your building in our map. To get ideas, look at buildings we have already made and try to use them as an example.

• Buildings - make them and send them to us.

Note that, at the moment, we don't need any more buildings for the CBD. We are looking for buildings that would fit in to industrial zones (warehouses, production/manufacturing facilities), tourism zones (shops, parks, theatres, hotels, resorts etc.), slums (our current inspiration is the Favelas of Brazil, so look up a couple of pictures for that) and rich districts (Mansions, golf courses - very upper class. If you have wanted to make a mansion...now is your chance)

• Graphics - banners/posters/promos etc.
• Trailers/let's plays - please post - we might feature it
• Music - upload a playlist of self made music as a soundtrack and we'll definitely feature it
