Painfulsliver Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 So, since a lot of people seem to prefer SMP communism yet I never find such a server, would some of you be interested in us starting a technic server with commie economics? I would.
MrFly Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Me too. I can't host however. I usually could but I switched over to shitty FiOs a while ago. The tech support is really bad. I tried finding out how to port forward myself but it went downhill from there. If anyone would care to discuss the server making please add me on skype: evanprosser
stringburka Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I could host a smaller server, got a good connection and 8 GB ram but it's the same computer I play at. I could have it up most of the time, not 24/7 but well 20/7. My time is GMT+1.
Mooseman9 Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 If your setting up a server like that, count me in.
Dr_Appleman Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I usually go capitalist but a communist server might be a fun change.
Lear85 Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 If you can manage to actually maintain communism, I'd love to take part. Most communistic environments I've seen deteriorated into something less effective.
geniuszack Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 On my friends sever there are two factions and one of them has the two ops. There is supposed to be trade but most people are too busy arming themselves and building resource grinders to care. Thus we have one businessman and a bunch of well armed barbarians.

The logical method? Ban all swords. That should suppress the human's desires.

poryy Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 We went beyond swords, we now use cannons. Nuke it from... underground? I guess you could just caps out the policy and ban all who do not comply.
geniuszack Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Nuke it from... underground? I guess you could just caps out the policy and ban all who do not comply. Whats the fun in that?
poryy Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Whats the fun in that? Explosions and politics. My two favorite things.
okamikk Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Explosions and politics. My two favorite things. eeewww.... politics
poryy Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 eeewww.... politics Politics give you excuses to nuke the other guy. What's not to like?
Xylord Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Politics give you excuses to nuke the other guy. What's not to like? And they also get your thread insta-locked, unless you're in 4chan.
poryy Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 And they also get your thread insta-locked, unless you're in 4chan. The Offical United States Presidential Election thread didn't get instalocked. EDIT: Okkamik got banned! Ohhhh nooooo!
Xylord Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 The Offical United States Presidential Election thread didn't get instalocked. EDIT: Okkamik got banned! Ohhhh nooooo! Yeah, it had the destiny of the retarded cousin of the insta-lock, the delayed-lock.
poryy Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Yeah, it had the destiny of the retarded cousin of the insta-lock, the delayed-lock. I would post the picture of the retarded owl next to the regular owl, but it's a meme. Wait... isn't this topic 4 pages of politics?
stringburka Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 And they also get your thread insta-locked, unless you're in 4chan. This is the only forum I've ever visited where political threads were frowned upon, actually.
Xylord Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 This is the only forum I've ever visited where political threads were frowned upon, actually. Well, to take the sus-mentioned thread as an example, The mods are alright with political discussion at its basis, but it quickly generated in angry people being angry at each other, rather than a rational discussion. This is simply one of those subjects that make people emotional. Rule of the thumb, if you can't bring up the subject during Christmas without spoiling the eve, it will probably make people butthurt in forums as well.

Rule of the thumb, if you can't bring up the subject during Christmas without spoiling the eve, it will probably make people butthurt in forums as well. Well, in most forums there generally seems to be either A) quite slack attitude towards people being angry at each other (which can nice, because there's nothing wrong with emotions and it's usually strongest to those closest to the discussed issue; some of the best debates I've seen has involved shouting matches and death threats) or are generally soft and nice enough that people don't get mad (generally, forums where mostly people who don't have to deal with hardships are). Generally I must say the technic forum is very strongly moderated, though in an uncommon way. Things that are very rarely (or practically never) against the rules in other places are forbidden here (signing your post, posting a meme) while things a lot of forums would ban for are accepted and even encouraged here (lots of comments in the PAINS thread comes to mind). But, now we're slipping off topic which itself isn't really appropriate... So back to thread. Do you people tend to favor different governing methods in different modpacks?
The_DarthMoogle Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I'm having uber fun (What's the alt code for umlaut by the way...) on andrewdonshiik's Technic Battles server. The corporate attitude was at it's height a while back. We seemed to get plagued by people who were oblivious to the entire point of the server. They went for explosions instead of politics, rather than both. I broke into someone's forcefield, stole all his stuff, then went back to openly admit it. At which point I was tricked to walk into a death room, and promptly lost all my stuff. Proper corporate politics, ya know? M-Tech is taking applicants, by the way.
MrFly Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 We need the ICBM mod if we are actually going to do this.
