aet2505 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Gearz is a new 24/7, EE disabled Tekkit classic server. Players can take advantage of the implemented Towny plug-in to get together and start up towns and nations to further create a small village or quite possibly, a vast civilization! Then comes the ability of war; players can take a break from their town to induce in PvP battles in the arena. As well as Towny, Gearz uses Multiverse to accommodate players with 3 unique worlds: The Lowlands, the main world for all towns, buildings, and other structures. The Pit, the resource world, mainly for mass mining and use of quarries. The Flatland, which holds all major arenas and mini-games, and is also used for most of the server events. We strive to keep the community involved by throwing new activities at them, such as fun plugins, events, and more! We also encourage players to suggest their own ideas on our forums. Gearz uses many plugins, keeping the server functioning properly and letting players enjoy their time much better. The server's plugins include, but are not limited to: Auto Message Auto Rank Channel Chat ChestShop Cookie Monster CoreProtect Dynmap Essentials iConomy LWC McMMO ModReq Multiverse No-Item Towny Treasurehunt VanishPro Votifier WorldBorder WorldEdit WorldGuard We ban very few items however the following items are banned and attempts to access these items will not be tolerated. Tank Carts REPs Cannons Dynamite (Sticky and regular) Chunk Loaders (World anchors, etc.) Water Strainer ITNT Nukes There are also a number of restricted items details of when and how these become available can be found in the Ranks section. You have the ability to play the server to its full extent but, of course, you must abide by the following rules. Keep in mind if you break any of these, you may be punished by being kicked, or even banned from the server, depending on the particular offense. In General: No griefing or stealing from containers. Do not use any sort of hacked clients or mods unless approved by the staff. Do not build or mine within 100 blocks from a town without explicit permission from the town's mayor. Only place a quarry in the Pit world. Do not intentionally abuse glitches or game mechanics. No major pixel art; try to keep it small. No placing of big lava or water walls. Do not kill people as they spawn (No spawn killing). No block jumping. Chat-Specific: Do not harass or discomfort any players or staff members in any form. No discussing religious or political views. No marketing, promoting or advertising any products, services, websites, or other servers. Do not spam the chat in any way. Do not impersonate any staff members. Do not encourage other players to break any set rule in-game. In public chat, only speak English; you may speak any other language in private chat.

Moderator: This rank provides a promotion from the original Temporary Moderator rank. This comes after you have helped out the community with questions and problems and have proven you are worthy of partaking in more of a professional position. Administrator: Administrators are the most respective and trustworthy rank of all, meaning it is also the hardest rank in-game to achieve. There are very high standards to earning this position.

Inside of the Arena - for PvP fights with guns, swords, bows, or whatever else you'd like to use! Outside of the Arena - for PvP fights with guns, swords, bows, or whatever else you'd like to use!

Urgist Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Great server! Probably the best I've ever played on, and that includes some major ones who I won't name ^^ Most mature community I've yet seen on a public server too. Epic builds, .. honestly there's too much to mention without this becoming as large as the original post
aet2505 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Thank you Urgist for your compliments. Server is all set up and running and receiving great feedback so far. Hope to see many more of you in the future.
MrAddictiveGamer Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Server is really fun and I'd highly suggest it for anyone who is looking for a server with friendly staff, grief prevention and overall very safe protection :)
gdhs2 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Gearz is a great server! Even without EE its very fun and you dont get bored easily the mods and admins are also very kind as well as the rest of the community there is PVP enabled but people would rather help you instead of killing you for your items and the mods also respond very quickly if you need help. There is also no lag what so ever and it is growing so if you want a great server to play on try Gearz you wont regret it. There is also no griefing if you do get griefed the mods will come and undo all the damage done they also give back items if you lost it due to someone stealing it.

toadcannon Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 ive been on the server for a long while now i love it alot come check them out and i recently heard a rumor that you guys was going to be adding more different servers that are not possibly part tekkit or not tekkit down the road if so you guys going to create a server /lobby link so we can move around to each of the servers with a unifiying lobby system or are they all going to be individual ?

Thank you for your feedback. My focus is on building Gearz as both a community and server for the foreseeable future, however the group we are part of bxbservers.com are potentially looking to set up more servers both modded and vanilla. This is not something I am directly involved in as my role is primarily with Gearz however I will put forward your idea of a lobby System. I appreciate your suggestions and I hope I have been able to clarify the area.
Mr.Rage-Quit Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 This is a great server, excellent uptime, no lag, impressive and complex builds. So far this one of the best servers out there even though its small atm but this WILL grow into one of the best servers out there IMO.

leeber2002 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 One great server, the community is great, the lag is non-existent, and there is a smooth economy starting to form. Removal of EE is probably the best thing that could happen with this server, and it makes tekkit as a whole a thousand times more enjoyable.

I'm glad you enjoy the dynamic no EE brings.
Vhista Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 One of the best server's I've played on, and surprisingly there is no server lag like most big Tekkit servers are and I do go as far to say it runs better than most normal minecraft servers, Great Staff and amazing player-base. see you ingame <3. - Vhista

We are running on a high quality machine that is very well managed. The community is what makes this server what it is and I am very grateful for all the support.
aet2505 Posted February 3, 2013 Author Posted February 3, 2013 Just updated our website visit bxbservers.com and tell us what you think.
Mr.Rage-Quit Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Moved our thread to the custom mod pack sub forum today and released our first mod pack. Its not much but it was my first time doing this kind of work. Hope to see you on our server.
aet2505 Posted February 10, 2013 Author Posted February 10, 2013 Server is now fully up and running all the teething problems have been fully ironed out. Hope to see you in game soon and please contact us if you have any ideas on additional mods or updates you would like to see. On a side note the first major server event will be running next weekend. more details to follow in next few days.
aet2505 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Posted February 17, 2013 We have reverted back to an EE disabled Tekkit server due to the lack of popularity of the new pack. This means there is no need to install the custom pack to access Gearz however if the pack is installed you can still login.
Cody_the_Great Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Amazing server with no lag to be found, and a great community to play with. I have never before had such a great opportunity to enjoy building what I like, without the mess Equivalent Exchange usually brings to even the best servers.
