Frequenter Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Welcome to Verve Tekkit. RECRUITMENT: OPEN [email protected] Verve is built on the idea that all a successful server needs is an invested community. Our aim is to harbour that ethos, and work to produce something incredible. We've had a popular few opening days, but we still have an absolute STACK of room to build, with big community projects in the works for those interested. Never too late to join us! Verve is spearheaded by our extremely experienced and dedicated team of Staff (that motley crew above), who work tirelessly to ensure that our server is running at peak performance, 24/7. This ensures that players are able to foster their creativity and exercise their survival skills in perfect conditions. Whether you are a new player, or an experienced player, Verve is, quite simply, the Vanilla Tekkit server you've been waiting for. This is not the first server that our staff has hosted. We know what we are doing. We've done it very successfully before. Plenty of great servers are offering what we are offering, but with what we view to be some concessions. No EE, no Buildcraft, no IndustrialCraft, or a limited play style etc. That often works really well for them, but for us, it's not what we are about. We want it all (the cake and the implied eating). We have a huge, open, sprawling map, ready to be explored in any fashion you please. Heading in any direction from spawn will set you on a path to every biome you could ask for, even the mushroom kingdom! It's rich and unexplored. We implore our players to travel far and wide to find their perfect home. Once they do, they will be able to design a little (or large) teleportation hub, and one of our staff will come and install a free teleporter, power included. That way, no matter how close or far you are, you're never more than one click from spawn (or two clicks from any other player). Thousands of miles away (they'll never interrupt your beachfront views), we have the specially made PVP section, which plays host to numerous fantastic PVP maps. We've got a custom made Walls map. We are halfway through a huge Survival Conquest map, riddled with hidden rooms, puzzles, boats, mazes, castles, prisons, slums, chests and the search for Glory. We also have a ridiculously epic Egyptian palace precinct, originally built on an older server by the talented Gazamo Build team. We plan to host numerous PVP events for teams or players who are interested, with fun prizes and recognition. We'll also be on the lookout for awesome personal builds to feature here, in turn winning the constructors some sweet loot. First exterior shot of Spawn. Still being developed, but this is the direction we have decided to go in! Looks even better from the inside! More shots coming soon. We want all players to be able to get the most out of Verve from the very start, so you won't find much limiting here in the way of items, or commands. The implementation of ranks does allow us to make sure we have made the right decision when whitelisting a new player, but also strengthens the community, as people are rewarded for being active, helpful and fun. Player: Every whitelisted player begins at this default level. You can protect your stuff with LWC, use ChopTree, and have access to a bunch of the basic commands. You'll stick here for about 2 weeks of active play, before you become a... Member: Members show the community that the player has worked hard, had some fun, adhered to the rules, and is generally a trusted and worthy addition to the server. As a reward, they get access to a few higher level commands, such as seeing nearby players, other player information and getting a couple more 'homes'. If they continue in this vein for long enough, they will become a... Regular: Regulars are the epitome of what every model Verve player should embody. They help out with community builds, they are fairly active, always giving a hand to new players, and just an all round awesome person to have around. The reward for being all round awesome is upgraded commands access, such as 'Hat' (let's be honest, the only reason people strive for this rank :-) and 'Workbench', as well as custom message colours, and even more 'homes'. Awesome. Moderator: These guys and gals have been around for long enough to warrant almost blanket access to all commands. Huge bump to command list, unlimited homes, and the authority to hand down the long arm of the law. Administrator: By special appointment only. Administrators get it all. Owner: Pretty self-explanatory this one: It's me! PermissionsEx ChopTree2 Essentials LWC (with added custom protections; Condensers, Solar Panels, Macerators, etc...) NoItem Hawkeye Above everything, we want Verve players to have fun. To ensure that we can offer an environment where people are free to do what they want (as long as it does not affect other players adversely), we have implemented a few rules. Don't get us wrong, we love a good prank (Hidden Alarms, anyone?). Just use your common sense, you know? In saying that: Do Not Grief. Do Not Steal. No Homophobia, Racism, Sexism or ANY other form of discrimination. No unwanted PVP. The following items are not available by default. However, our Moderators, Administrators and Owner will happily give you whatever you need, if you can justify its use. Nuke Nova Catalyst Nova Cataclysm Hyperkinetic Lens Catalytic Lens World Anchor Applicants should have done the following before filling out the form below: Read the rules. Agreed to the rules. Pretty easy, huh? The application is going to be pretty simple too. Initially, we will be sticking with the maturity stereotype, and looking for people 18+. If you think you can exemplify the reasons that you should be an exception to this rule, we strongly encourage you to show us why! Your In Game Name: Your Age: How often are you planning on playing: For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building: For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: Additional Comments: If accepted, you can join our server on IP: 198.15.78.66:25573 (the whole number, including the port at the end) You'll be at Player rank immediately, so dig in and have fun! We cannot wait to see you there.
Frequenter Posted October 13, 2012 Author Posted October 13, 2012 An example application would read as follows: Your In Game Name: Frequenter Your Age: 101 For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building: I once built an animatronic, walking, talking T-Rex. For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: I'd like to learn about Tekkit under the tutelage of some friendly people! For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: The level of freedom. Additional Comments: I love cake
aidan mayer Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Your In Game Name: 999rDucati Your Age: 19 For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building: I have not build a ton of buildings in tekkit however i am incredibly good at building in regular minecraft. Ive taken 2 years of drafting and design classes IRL and i am also very creative so i know what im doing both in and out of the game. Ive also participated in a build with the well known FyreUK group and on my own ive build an incredible city, however the server it was on has been shut down. It consisted of a large dam in the middle of the ocean in which almost all of the water was cleared out with the exception of 4 layers or so at the bottom. I then made the inside extremely elegant and added floodgates that would open/close to let water in on the flick of a lever. I put circular plots in suspended on the water by stilts. Connected to the dam was a large suspension bridge made of water and lapis blocks that went to land and into a MASSIVE hand-carved valley that was filled with a dense forrest and a very large central tree, as well as glowstone hanging from fences so it appeared to be floating at night time. For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: Im somewhat new to tekkit so i suppose il answer this one as well, im hoping to make some new friends who i enjoy building and creating with. Id also like to learn more about tekkit without worrying about a ton of immature 10 year olds interfering. For me small servers are the way to go and by the sounds of it this is exactly what im looking for. For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: ^^^ Additional Comments: Im really hoping that you will accept me into your server, im looking forward to experimenting and talking to yall here. Im quite happy about the fact that nothing is banned, its one of the major factors that made me look at this server. If you have any other questions please let me know, otherwise i suppose reply if you accepted me. thanks for the time and consideration, much appreciated.

Mike Schmitt Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Your In Game Name: Mikety2257 Your Age:18 For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building:The structure I am most proud of building would be my house in my world. It is not a giant mansion, but I really like the design and it was fun to build. For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: I am pretty new to tekkit even though not new to Minecraft. So i would say that I would like to join others and build cool things, like factories, towns and other things. For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: All I have been looking for is a server that has one world and a great community, I hope this can be that server. Additional Comments: I also am attracted to the small list of banned items. Most other servers are full of long lists of things you cant have, which I think takes away most of the fun. I know some people make it a challenge to allow those items, but I am not one to use them to destroy others' hard work. All I ask is to be treated as I treat the people on a server.
Nexaddo187 Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Your In Game Name: nexaddo187 Your Age: 25 For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building: I have been proud of several castles I have made, none cookie cutter, but my original still stands out in my mind as a living, breathing, awe inspiring megalith. For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: This is my second Tekkit server I have played on, so I still fall in this category of needing to expand to the Tekkit mods. Look forward to learning everything there is in Tekkit. For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: The structure and maturity level that is expected, but still with the flexability to enjoy the server - seems a heavenly concept compared to recent servers. Additional Comments: The cake is a lie.
SebbyGibson Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Your In Game Name: SebbyGibson Your Age: 15 (mature) For experienced players, the structure you are most proud of building: My proudest creation would have to be a large multi-purpose compound I built in Vanilla Minecraft with some friends. Nothing spectacular but it was the first big build I undertook and it will always have a special place in my minecraft memories. For new players, what are you hoping to achieve on Verve: Fairly new to Tekkit, I have played a fair bit on a single player world to get the basics, but I still have a lot of learning to do. I'm looking to expand my knowedge of Tekkit and build some of the things only possible within the mod. For everyone, why do you think Verve is the server for you: I have been looking for a small and friendly environment in which I can comfortably get to experience Tekkit to the fullest. I also love the flexiblity that this server offers, something that is becoming harder too find. Additional Comments: Although I am under the age level which you would like, I hope to demonstrate that I have a high maturity level and that I am here to enjoy this server in the same manner as the older members.
