Starting a mature community..

[ebiladdress]

I'm starting a web community shortly, craftclan.com and it will be a little hangout for people with mature minecraft servers.

 

First is the 'mature' thing.. I envision a cozy community of players that are mature, along with servers which are pro-maturity. Mature is used in the sense that we don't allow childish antics and work as a community to cross-ban for offenses that define such. This makes for a place that folks can wonder around, find different venues and, I hope, a few places to call home.

 

What I can already provide:

 

- A website with a forum solution and robust members solution, my company does websites and while this is far from our cup of tea, I can personally pull together something that looks good, works well and has several fun functions. I have planned it so that I can host forums for several servers as well as personal homepages for each. The homepages would include blogs and layers of other features to help your server be on the web. I can also help with social networking and the websites can also, so this is a gain for sever admins as well as players looking for this type of environment.

 

- A server, while small in configuration it is large in aspects of planned direction, currently holds 32 players and easy to upgrade. My direction (which is in progress as I am a builder) is to make a central city that reaches out to span great distances and allow massive map access. This along with an economy and hopefully Factions should make a fun structure.

 

I will update this later when the website is up and running, but please reply with ideas / concerns / alike and let me know your thoughts. I also have another minecraft domain name I am considering not using for it's intended goal, so if the branding sucks I can change that.

PvP or PvE? Factions imply PvP

I'm looking for PVE for the most part, but unsure if I wanted to remove all PVP options or not.

Which modpack on server?

It's running Tekkit Lite, bukkit, WE, WG, and a few others. I'm still researching the best plugins for permissions and economy. Taking my time a little as I've been away from Minecraft for about a year.

Tekkit Lite? (Minecraft 1.4.7)? There won't be any support for those outdated mods.

That's a good point.. I was hopeful they would do an update to it sometime in the future.

 

I'm a big fan of the tekkit lite features, I suppose I could install them individually however.

Getting into this and now really thinking about it, I'm unsure what to do with my server exactly. I'd be open to more recently seasoned people as co-admins if there is interest.

 

To the website topic however, I'm thinking to use my other domain, http://minecraft.university/ and push that it is for 18 and up (as those are typical university ages) and create a community for owners of servers that are a bit more mature.
