Any chance you could add the Followers of the Cosmic Toad to the sanctus kingdoms list. Call it Cosmicus Toadus.
Also, for the benefit of those interested in the server, the Cosmic Toad needs more worshippers

I've been rather curious why Minecraft servers in general always seem to gravitate towards two general server models: anarchy, and pure PvE, and yet very few try to strike a balance between the two models.
On most PvP servers, the populace will, quite sensibly, set up hidden under ground bases and pursue one of three activities on the server: scamming, fighting in arenas/pvp areas, and raiding the bases of people who are offline.
Meanwhile, the populace on PvE servers will spend most of their time doing stuff that could be just as easily done in singleplayer, and occasionally participate in various server events.
I fail to see how other people find these activities fun. Why have few people tried to do something different from these models?

What is the war system on this server exactly? Are the rules/goals of war agreed to by its participants, or is there a set system for the entire server?
-
What MC version is the server on?
-
Lol does the mudpack include mud
I've almost made that mistake so many times.

I'm loving these updates.
Join this server.

My new computer is prepped for battle old friend. Tolgoi and Athabasca will be coming back right?
I seem to remember Mensrea having people rename the IW folder in the installation process. Have you guys resolved or encountered that issue?

To me the server's that run the modpacks define the ups/downs in it. If a mod is op or just stupid in general than the servers can disable it, resulting in a fun experience.
The mod that always irritated me the most was Voltz. This modpack definitely has a lot of potential, but it's most fun stuff (particle accelerators, force fields, etc) always took absolutely op amounts of resources to construct. Maybe people who don't have a life are fine with this but it annoys me.
As for least favorite modpack I'd have to say Hexxit because of its bugs. Many servers disable some its mods such as Dimensional Doors because it is so laggy.

An idea came to me on the topic of anti-cheat plugins a while back and I wondered why a system like what I'm suggesting hasn't been implemented.
Couldn't a small program be tacked on to the MC launcher which cross checks the client files with an established list of cheat files. An "if" statement which checks for the presence of a file and then modifies a Boolean variable based on the presence or lack thereof of cheat files should not be too hard to implement. The value of the said Boolean variable could be in the list of profile information which the client sends to the server. Since this approach seems non-invasive, easy, and beneficial to 99% of server operators why hasn't anybody implemented it?
Currently I have about 1 chapter of a Java programming book under my belt so feel free to enlighten any ignorance I might have on the simplicity of this program.

Might there be any wars happening on this server? I'm seeking a server with a large scale town vs. town experience.

IGN: halitosisman
AGE: 16
HAVE I GOTTEN BANNED: nope
WHY DO I WANT TO PLAY: I'm interested in some warfare.
HOW WELL DO I KNOW THE MODS: For the most part, I'm new to the modpack, however, I am familiar with a few of its mods.
WHY SHOULD I BE LET ON: Warfare tends to liven things up and encourage activity.
HOW OFTEN WILL I BE ON: As often as I am able.
-
Will it be returning at some point?
-
Again thanks for the input. I didn't really expect a lot of new high quality mods anyways. I was simply exploring my options.
-
Thanks for the input. I am well aware of these mods, however I'm interested in learning whether there have been any mods fit to rival the ones mentioned in the above post since the 1.6/1.7 release.

Recently I started looking into making a mudpack for a friend's server. This modpack would be designed for pvp, with a heavy emphasis on technology as well(e.g. factories and the like).
Obviously I would like this modpack to run on the newest version of MC available, and thus I was wondering whether there were any new mod releases since MC 1.4.7 that would fit in with this theme. Currently I'm drawing my list of mods from the ones in the official Technicpack modpacks, and since these modpacks wouldn't include very new releases, and I wanted to know whether there have been any gems since the 1.5+ releases that I would do well to be aware of.
For a very basic idea of the type mod I'm looking for, think about Voltz with guns.

I'm using a tutorial which requires me to have Eclipse. Now, when I go to the downloads page of their website, I'm presented with a whole menagerie of download options and I don't know which to pick. If some one could tell me the type of Eclipse I need for modding, that would be great.
-
If a tutorial, like some of those suggested in the op, is a couple years old, will it still help me? And as far as using Forge goes, when the installer comes up do I want to install Forge client or do I want to extract the files?
-
I can't wait for a high tech pack with big explosives to acquire different types of trees as well...

The key to a good trolling is to troll so lightly that the person being trolled doesn't realize it. That's what makes for a good Whale Box thread, especially if you can drag it out for 2 or 3 pages.
Luckily the world has a good stock of dumb thread makers in it so trolling them in that way isn't too hard. Although it isn't easy either.
-
Most of the threads in there were intentionally trolled.

Unless your experience has been remarkably different than mine trollers don't go this kind of effort. Honestly though the whalebox gets all kinds of people so there isn't really a wrong answer as to what the posters there are up to.
-
Very few trollers can intentionally create the like of whale box threads. The all-mighty creators of the Technic pack must be great indeed if they have exorcised the idiots of WB quality from their forums.As the all-mighty creators of the Technic Pack have stated, they do not like the Kitty Jailer's attempt a trolling to get Whale Box threads, and therefore most of us do not really attempt to troll them anymore. -
As Appollo mentioned certain D&D games are very good. My personal favorites are probably Baldurs Gates 1&2 + expansion packs. Also, there's another game called Magicka which is a bit more recent but does resemble some of the old style games. Both of these games I have mentioned are also quite fun to play multiplayer. Steam also recently released an enhanced edition version of BG1.

I don't know, I think various sources of amusement on the internet fill in when other sources(such as Honeydew) get boring.But that means we'd have to laugh at Honeydew more often. And I do respect that man, despite his voice.
The admins probably know better than I do, but I think there's the same number of retards on the forums, it's just that all the spectacularly theatrical ones have been sorted out.well, there not being any thing new in the whale box just means that we have been getting less retards.That is a major win.
In hindsight maybe it was too much to complain that the Technic people didn't provide entertainment in addition to modpack support. :D

Mensrea's PvP servers are among the best in the world and I'd strongly encourage anyone wanting quality to check this place out.
