Hello Everyone, I'm here to announce that our content pack is currently updated to 1.9.5 BETA pack and has added many an improvement and a few new additions as well as some trimming of the plugins and addons that make Pi-Craft unbearable and or unsightly. Since our last few updates since 1.5-1.9 we have trimmed the plugins and modifications through extensive trial and error and some hard code edits and hacks but everything is running smoothly and is keeping memory usage and processor clock to a minimum. ------. As a notice we are still looking for responsible players and members to apply for the positions of [Operator] x2 (Head and Assistant), [Moderator] x3, and a [Dungeon Master] x2 (Head and Assistant). With these positions we also require at least a minimum age of 16 (although exceptions can be made) and English speaking willing to donate their time to the server and be able to support the players in terms of general assistance in various formats. Here is a Short Description of the roles you will play in the staff roster. [Administrator] ([Admin] in-game): Administrator's are server administrators who have access to the serverbox and can edit large portions of the world. At the moment this rank only belongs to Vulgaris [Developer/Owner] and A.Soldier [server-Manager/Chief of Staff]. Administrators dedicate ample time from their personal lives to the community and love to see others thrive and create and develop on their own without micromanagement. If a large community issue arises we will take proactive steps to either come to a equal understanding or resolution through peaceful means. [Operator] (Head Operator and Assistant Operator) Operators are trusted staff members (both a lead and assistant operator) that have administrative access to the server to some extent and can perform nearly all the functions of an administrator except in regards to those that deal with the server box and major game changes in general. If an Administrator is unavailable to answer or solve an issue an operator can make decisions based on community guidelines and assist players to a greater extent then other staff members. [Moderator] (Up to three Moderators possible more depending on server populations] Moderators are the eyes and ears of the senior staff, while operators have very limited powers in regards to permissions they can resolve most community issues and deal with the majority of all players within the server and if a issue requires a higher authority then they will setup that connection. If at all times problems should be brought to moderators before being brought up to senior staff to prevent "Daddy-Mommy" Games (going over somebody to get something once someone has told you no) and to allow senior staff to concentrate of issues or enjoy the game themselves. [Dungeon Master] (Head DM and Assistant DM) Are elevated normal users who have build authority within the server, although many dungeons and towers are created through the world generation by default sometimes a nice touch is to make a custom dungeon or maybe an aesthetic NPC village and require approval from a senior staff member to be made part of the world. DM's are trusted normal players who love to build and create small to medium scale structures and have a good idea how to make RPG style dungeons. Pi-Craft Finalized Rules and Code of Conduct: Respect all guests and staff members of the community, these individuals come here to play the game and be proactive in the community. Staff Members are chosen for a reason and their word is final. If you have a grievance with a staff member contact a senior administrator of the next tier higher (sorry you cant complain about the Owner/Co-Owner). We have a community Zero Tolerance policy for any kind of racism, sexism and are an equal opportunity host. We do not base any decisions or allow community involvement that involves infractions against the policy against a specific race/gender/creed without dire repercussions. If you violate this policy you will be dealt with very swiftly. This is a MPS (Multiplayer Survival) PvP (Player versus Player) server. We allow players to play the game however they wish as long as it conforms to the rules of the community. This also means that base raiding and base griefing is allowed on the server but to some extent using our Grief Prevention plugin. At any time a player can attack and kill you for no specific reason and there will be no repercussions in doing so, some of the more popular ways to prevent your character from being killed have been removed such as using/teleport commands (including /home and /factionhome) and if players disconnect from the server (weather it was be connection error or by manual means) during the combat phase of grief protection you will be killed and all your items will be dropped onto the ground for your attacker to pickup. This only works with Player Versus Player engagements and not monster engagements. Unauthorized Modifications that allow clients to gain an unfair advantage to other players are NOT ALLOWED. This means modifications that perform actions such as X-Ray, Client Side flying, ESP, Allows world edits etc are a kickable and or bannable offense. Overall Have fun and play how you wish!
