I know many will say that since I am 32, I am way too old to be playing minecraft, but thats not true at all. For me Minecraft is really meditative. I like to simply load up the game dig some holes, build a shack, farm some plants, ride some horses, etc and think out my real life problems, and it be honest it works really good. I’d say nearly as good if not more than having a real nature walk.
The problem with minecraft is that ALOT OF annoying kids play it, and they’re probably the top group of people who do play the game, so I’ve pretty much been limited to single player, which I’m okay with, I play the game to think out problems and to relax my brain, not to be social.
I’ve been thinking about putting up another Minecraft server for a while now. The good thing about running a server is that you can mod it and add features to it. You may be able to do this to single player to a limited extent. The only thing that was stopping me from putting up a server is all the BS and having to babysit kids.
I don’t care for power, i don’t want to be an admin. I only like to set up my own services, and servers so I can make sure there is no admin abuse, and that they work properly. I just want to play the game, and not have to constantly deal with kids who are trolling or being total dickwads.
Anyways, I decided to give another server a shot, so I set one up.
I want the server to be more survivalish, so i’m tryin to only add features to the server to help make the game funner itself. I didn’t want to use any protection stuff, such as land and chest protection due to this removing the survivalish feel, but I know in Minecraft we need this, so i set up a few things like lockette where you can lock checks (i might remove this though) and Factions which will allow you to gain members into a group, build your own community in the Minecraft world, and gain power to claim and protect land. I like factions because its not permanent power. The more your faction members die, the less power you have, which therefore leads you to lose land. So its not some magical power thing. Chests and other things are locked on your land from enemies or people who arent in your faction, so the lockette plugin might be removed due to this.
I’ve also added some other features, and a real time map, which can be viewed at http://mc.hyzteria.com:8123/
I decided to use the HyZteria name for the server. I wanted to use the server to promote Grunch in some way, but I gotta understand that these need to be separate identities/services, etc. I want to have a gaming community on HyZteria for DayZ, Minecraft, and other Survivalish games, which don’t really require zombies.
There are many more features and ideas, which you can lean about by navigating to the info page: http://www.hyzteria.com/minecraft-server/
For right now All new members need to be manually approved by me. hopefully in the future known trusted members will be able to promote guests to membership status where they can interact in the world, but like i said before, i dont want to have to babysit people so i dunno.
Mature players only, you can be promoted to member by chatting with me in the comments on here, hyzteria, or talk to me on the server.
lets have a cool fun super awesome server 😀
