Okay, first responding to floof. Your assumption that the only reason we want this is to get more people around us just shows that you didn't even bother reading the OP.
It does not only benefit half the community, it benefits everybody, as it creates a much less dead server. And no if left as is we cannot just advertise it or gather friends, I've been doing just that since I started playing here in june, and there's still no pvp.
If you think combat is laggy and not fun, then why go to simplicity
pvp.net? Go find a nice server where you can build and not have to pvp at all, or better yet just go play singleplayer.
We do get new members, but far from enough to keep this server alive. Even during primetime evenings there are at most 15 people online, does that sound like an active server to you? 'those people who look forward to coming on during their free time may decrease' I presume you're referring to yourself, this statement is of course false, and should instead be 'those people who dislike combat and look forward to coming on during their free time may decrease', where people who do enjoy pvp and only come on during their free time would obviously increase.
Now on to Rev
So without a map reset we will potetialy not have access to new eliments upcoming
Yes we would, most features don't need new map generation at all, and those that you can simply use plugins to generate them. The only time when a map reset was needed to get these new features was when the entire map generator was remade.
So when the tables are turned you don't want to lose your stuff and would even oppose updating to keep it
Nope, I'd have no problem with losing the fort I've put a lot of time into, if losing it was a necessity to creating a better server. Besides you're really quotemining me there, I was referring to not having access to new things such as the new biomes in 1.9, not losing access to what people had made.
If you bury yourself even 3K is good enough to remain cut off from everyone without xray
That is of course true, I even noted it myself a couple pages back, where I also said that the people who did that would be few, as most people will go to spawn if they're nearby anyway, even people who would otherwise never go to spawn.
I want to play a vanilla server and this one suits me just fine you're the one who has a problem with it so you should go find another server
So you're saying that nothing on this server should ever change, and that it should just stay exactly the way it is because people who dislike it can just go find another server? How about we just stop accepting new players then? That way it would stay exactly the way it is, with only the people we already know on it.
A world limit won't make people go to spawn most people are smart enough to realize there is nothing worth going there for
Again, people avoid going to spawn because it's too far, not because there's nothing there to go for. Right now it has nothing to offer, but that's exactly what this suggestion is suppose to change.
this is of coarse just your opinion although there is still combat just the way it is you're just not happy the amount
Well yes what little combat there is, is okay. You are exactly right with stating I'm just not happy with the amount.
I'm strongly opposed to this kind of nazi thinking in real life as well as online give me liberty or give me death
In your mind any rule is nazi thinking? What about rule #2 then? Isn't it a nazi rule for not giving you the liberty to choose whether or not you want to cheat? Rules are there for a reason, just because you might not like them does not mean they are useless or do not server any purpose in the society, and obviously societies with rules are much more successful than those without, good luck convincing every nation in the world to give up their 'nazi thinking'.
This is like life i give up my freedom to kill people in return of others giving up their right to kill me. If i give up my right to travel what right will you give up in return
This is compromise-thought, the common notion that nothing can be reached but by compromise is very stupid, both sides don't have to lose for an agreement to be made. and quickly no I will not lose any right by this suggestion.
Okay you're a noob so I'll give you a brief history. This server started out dead and only gained players when Yukar bought top page advertisment space. It was capping out the 50 player limit and pvp was active because of the large protected spawn site. It did NOT have a limit. Activity still hasn't gone as low as when i started. But this would suggest that advertisment is what the server needs and i'm sure yukar wouldn't mind one bit if you paid for some ads. But i'm sure you won't because this isn't acctaully what you want
Firstly I'm not a noob, I was on when the server was averaging 2 players at primetime, and I do quite clearly remember being able to sleep through nights. Acticity was that low 2 weeks ago, but I agree it's increased since then and is now averaging ~8 people. When the server was capping 50 people there were lots of people, but still not that much pvp. I have plenty of money and I'd have no problem paying for some advertising, in fact I'll go donate a couple hundred euros for yukar9 to use on advertising right now. While getting more people would definitely help a lot (relatively), it wouldn't solve the problem entirely, as most people would still just be hiding from far spawn and never actually fighting.
it will? oh just cuz you say so well as long as you know it will it must be true see above how to get it active
I know it will because the amount of good pvp servers out there is nil, making a good pvp server would draw in the medium-sized crowd of pvpers ~ more activity. Even if I'm wrong the activity can't drop much lower, so there's not much to lose.
I agree, but in your case the defense consists of separating yourself entirely from everybody on the server you don't trust, and the offense is entirely non-existent.
This again just shows that you yourself do not think the majority of people want pvp
Uh, I was referring to you and not the entire sever.
We can't force people to play only when you want to there server is bound to have pak and off peak times
I was saying nothing of forcing people to play when I want them to. I was saying that just because the server peaks 2 days a week does not mean it's an active server, besides peaking at 25 people is not that many anyway.
I think you still don't realize most of it is ocean. which is fine for hidding under but we all know you don't want people hiding from you
^
How is it not freedom? It's called right to travel and in life it is one of our inalienable rights.
Right to travel to a fictional world entirely identical (but more remote) than an identical world you're allowed to travel to. Real freedom you get there.
Well glad you tell us the truth of how you feel i'm just surprised people still follow you
Sorry, I just presumed you were capable of understanding sarcasm, seeing as you are not I'll stop using it entirely.
Why will every one play the way you want just cuz there's a limit i'm pretty sure people that want to hide will still do so
^
and people who join and ask is this vanilla will leave when they here it's not
It isn't vanilla now, people who come for true vanilla already leave quickly.
And people that see there is no trees or food will still quit right after joining.
I stand by my belief that a pvp server shouldn't be accomodating of noobs, so if people incapable of gathering food/wood decide to leave, I'll have no problem with that.
And yes i want to call it a theory because there is no evidence supporting it
Oh the irony, I disliked the term because it doesn't have
proper evidence supporting it (and I know that'll be paraphrased to me having no evidence at all, I'm used to it by now)
what's your position?
That this server's pvp is dead, and that a world boundary world solve that issue.
Why shouldn't I bitch at you for building where no one can find you?
Because i don't bitch about where you build
Not a good reason not to, I'll bitch at you for playing singleplayer all I want, even if you don't bitch at me for building where I do (which you by the way have).
So if you'd please tell me why you think adding a limit will increase the player population.
Yeah I think that about covers it.
