superg2009 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 i second nightrage reset would be ideal
xxmikegigsxx Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Reset would be nice. But we need ways to protect from griefers.
superg2009 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 how do i put it lightly the destruction HAS BEGUN nuclear warfare !!!!!yeah too early but only damaged was already messed up stuff and nether bits warning change settings some lag may occur
battle_bas Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 how do i put it lightly the destruction HAS BEGUN nuclear warfare !!!!!yeah too early but only damaged was already messed up stuff and nether bits warning change settings some lag may occur well in that case i got only on chose. vote for the restart :D
GreenWolf13 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I'm game for a reset. It will putnthe companies on more equal ground, and allow me to finally find the perfect spot for my castle (the currebt location is a bit too small). Commence the nuclear destruction of the current map!
The_DarthMoogle Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Although I shall not be joining you, I would like to put forward a suggestion. Now that we are mostly back at school, with the temporary exception of any uni students, Andrew should start making a list of playing times and time zones so as to make sure company employees are on at mostly the same time during the week. I wanted M-Tech to have an anti-EE stance, but the tagalongs on the West Coast of the US I never saw thought otherwise, and built 50 HV-Solar Arrays in two bloody afternoons.
GreenWolf13 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 why would you complain about 50 hv solars? I'd be happy to have that many solar arrays.
The_DarthMoogle Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 why would you complain about 50 hv solars? I'd be happy to have that many solar arrays. Well poo to you, they goddamn CHEATED They also used it to power their own super condensey cheaty nonsense. While the rest of us were cool and building underground labs and airships 'n' stuff. You know. HAVING FUN.
GreenWolf13 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 they used ee for it? that is cheating. and what super condensey cheatu thing? a uu-matter factory that made more HV solar panels?
BritoO Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I agree with a map reset, but what about having some fun on the way. If the Map IS going to be reset, then all the companies should declare war on each other, have some fun and then reset. After all we will not be using that map anymore
superg2009 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 way ahead of you brito me and buzz have a nuke per second factory line ive blown up some nether and some blob remains and other stuff because its fun btw no real building that were intact i didnt hit i only got scraps of building from blobs last assault i didnt touch anyone really else
andrewdonshik Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 Ok, will reset whenever people say they're ready. Also, I'm closing apps, which is my way of dealing with griefers. (note: if you know someone personally that would like to join, let me know!) Could a mod move this back to General Tekkit? Anyone who would like to continue playing should post here with their timezone.
superg2009 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 im pacific standard time british columbia FTW or vancouver time at the currently times its 8 50 pm and ill let you know if my sis gets premo account to play
gavjenks Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 A reset is not a bad idea. However, it won't solve anything if that's the only real thing you do... The other things that I think need to change are: 1) At least some sort of attempt at a much Much MUCH better application process (or I guess closing apps entirely like you say, but that seems like it would kill the server from boredom soon enough). 2) Possibly an area of the server that is only open to people that the community trusts beyond the application. Like, for instance, the End could be protected by worldguard so anybody not on the second tier whitelist just gets teleported to global spawn when they try to go there, or killed or whatever a plugin allows you to do. Then there would be a sort of wild west of the overworld and nether (still governed by rules if people get caught though), and a much safer haven for trusted people to build prettier things and play nice together. 3) A good solid setup for rollbacks. NOT protection, which is utterly useless as several people have said. But just rollbacks. Because if and when we catch a griefer and ban them, then a rollback is a useful solution, because the threat is then gone and it won't immediately happen again. they used ee for it? that is cheating. and what super condensey cheatu thing? a uu-matter factory that made more HV solar panels? EE is not against server rules. Only EE glitches are against the rules, or "non-collector EMC gathering methods" (e.g. huge ridiculous laggy things like milk machines) Reset would be nice. But we need ways to protect from griefers. There is no such thing. The only way this can be done in tekkit is to essentially disable like 75% of the fun things in the modpack. The fact that this server is vanilla is the main reason it is so much fun compared to others. However, I do encourage any number of plugins andrew is willing to try BEHIND the scenes. Things like rollbacks, backups, logging, etc. that doesn't hinder gameplay but does help fix things or catch people breaking the rules.
gavjenks Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I'm just going to clarify, I said wireless redstone was unadvisable because I planned to have an electronic warfare suite on my airship. (Interestingly not using any jammers at all) Blobture's battleship that they were building before they got griefed would have been screwed over by me anyway. Oh by the way, I already build something like that in M-tech (and then moved it to my new base when the nukers missed it). I just never had a chance to us it, really. It was a redpower computer that automatically scanned all frequencies or broadcasted to all frequencies in about 16 seconds each. And it had the capability as well to listen and pick up on any wireless signal broadcasted for more than 1 second (50% chance of one for half a second, etc.). At which point it could be instructed to "jam" that signal by broadcasting its own signal (continuously or randomly) at the same frequency. Basically, it would have acted as a worldwide jammer by making it so whenever you turned any frequency on, it would STAY on even after you turned off your remote, for the 16 most recently used frequencies in the world. Making wireless redstone basically completely useless. But nobody ever really built anything that seemed interesting enough to mess with.
GreenWolf13 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 My time zone is GMT -7:00 or US Mountain time. can't go ln every day (honework) but i should have the weekends free.
xxmikegigsxx Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 EST GMT-5 EE is not against server rules. Only EE glitches are against the rules, or "non-collector EMC gathering methods" (e.g. huge ridiculous laggy things like milk machines) I think if you company leader says it, that is what goes. Things like rollbacks, backups, logging, etc. that doesn't hinder gameplay but does help fix things or catch people breaking the rules. This is what I meant.
battle_bas Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I talked to IRL friends of me that are also in the server (nanoblieb and Yojesse). All of us are in the same timezone so we 3 like to work together in minedustries.
gavjenks Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I think if you company leader says it, that is what goes. I was referring to the server in general. Although incidentally, the very first thing anybody said to me when I entered the server at M-tech was "oh hey, there's some dark matter in that flower over there. Feel free to grab some to get started," referring to the huge flower smack dab in the middle of the base...

andrewdonshik Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 Coincidentally, I constantly requested for that bloody flower to go... Just curious, are you going to play again?
gavjenks Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Oh sorry ill play again, and am in central US time And if you're going to wipe the server, please wipe it ASAP now that it's been announced. There's very little or zero motivation to build anything on a server that has a known wipe date in the near future, so the clock is ticking, and people will begin to get bored and leave the server for good the longer it takes. From personal admin-ery experience.
