Alcsaar Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 Does anyone want to explain what's going on? Like why is the server down? The "owner" is going to school or something and won't let one of the other admins take control of the server. The owner says its an "extended hiatus"
Asderfy1 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 The "owner" is going to school or something and won't let one of the other admins take control of the server. The owner says its an "extended hiatus" Okay, so when should I be able to play?
jjd210 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 To clear some things up, i do "give a shit" about the players otherwise I wouldn't have spent the hours i have on running this server, sometimes being up until 6am, being woken up in the middle of the night to fix things etc etc, unfortunately i have returned to university to complete my final year and do not have anywhere near the time required to keep the server running as i would hope it would. the reason i don't want someone else to take over is there i can't ensure that the levels of service and professionalism i expect would be maintained. I hope that once i have graduated i might be able to revive the server and don't want people to be annoyed by the staff that have been looking after it if/when i return additionally "admins offering to look after it" nobody and i mean nobody has spoken to me about it, i have had no offers AT ALL
MaggotKing Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 I would love to run the server but I don't have the time or knowledge too.
angeleon898 Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 i can completely understand jds point he is amking alot of sence we just have to hope that jwl gets revived when he is donr his school he does care about the server and alscar is a dick so im going on jds side with this one.
MaggotKing Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 But there is no other way? He cant let someone else take control of it for half a year?
Rex__ Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Good job Rex I applaud your wisdom Well I asked tom about it, as i never saw jd online on Skype to actually speak to him about it, and let's be honest I never said for certain I was going to have it
CaptainCommunism Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 This is unfortunate. I can sympathize with JD on this, as I have ran a vanilla server before and it is quite difficult. However, I feel like even though I have been on for a short amount of time I know that this server was a good one especially considering the fact that it has no whitelist. I sincerely hope that an agreement can be made to turn control of the server over. After all, burden of server rental, maintenance and plugin upgrading would fall on the inheritors at any rate. This is no easy task and requires technical skills usually beyond the ability to use Google. I still think it's something that should be considered, however. I think the only caveat would have to be that a trustee of the server who wishes to inherit the server would require the technical knowledge required to operate the server and the funds available to keep the server going. All things considered, I hope that the server can be up and running again soon. I wish JD the best of luck in his academic pursuits and that wisdom will guide his decisions with his server.
wallydxd2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Good luck at the university JD Im still waiting for a good european host! like good old days!
Katniss Everdeen Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 I wish you the Best of Luck at Uni JD and hope that you will do well in life! P.S I have one Statement that none of you will be able to deny JWL Is and Always will be the Best Tekkit server in all of Tekkopia (thought of the name randomly lol)

I am quite sure we are all wondering that right now

I am quite sure we are all wondering that right now MrBabe also does not have the time, he is in a similar situation to me
angeleon898 Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 i hope you do great jd and mrbabe hope to see you on jwl soon
jippuper Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Yea sorry guys (and ladies? O.o) I would love to run the server, but im in college and have 0% knowledge on how to run a server. Im sure that JWL will be revived after JD gets good grades at University. I had a great time with the most of you guys and I wont forget that, I hope that you guys feel the same about this :3 The main reason why I wasnt really active for so long was because there is an awesome vanilla (omg look at dat noob playin vanilla, wat a weirdo.) server that has been on top of the best server list on PlanetMinecraft for the past year. Look for Gazamo if youre interested. <3 you all and peace out
MaggotKing Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 When JWL does get revived, I hope there is a massive overhaul. New improvements and features.
angeleon898 Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 LETS KEEP THE MAP ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!! and it would be nice if you could send me the map :D
MaggotKing Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 I say new map. New features. New plugins. A fresh beginning. Doesn't this get annoying?
Clawx207 Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Just think IF jwl goes up again it will be more fun and nostalgic than ever!
Clawx207 Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 *JD awkwardly stares at the comment with hatred*
MaggotKing Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 I thought you spent half of the time slacking off at college!? At least in the US its like that...
