Player Warnings

I've made a slight change to the warnings system, players will now be notified of how many warnings they have each time they join the server.

This is just on a trial basis for now.

Server Down - Power Cut

The server has been down since around 09:05 due to a power cut.

From our hosting company:

UK network outage (Outage)

Priority - Critical

Our bandwidth provider in the UK appears to be experiencing a major outage at the moment, as a result our services based in the UK are unreachable until resolution.

Update 09:15 - there was a power outage in the area, we will keep you updated.

I'll update here when I know more or the situation is resolved.

Update 09:30 - Power has been restored but I am unable to start the server due to some file corruptions, I am working on fixing this now!

Update 09:45 - The server is fixed and back up! 

A few mods had to be restored from backup, Ender Chests have had to be rolled back 2 days and players who were online when the power cut happened may have lost part of their inventory but other than that all is well so it could have been much worse. If you were online and have lost items from your inventory then please open a modreq to let us know so we can restore the items for you.

Freaky Friday The 13th

I hope you all enjoyed today's "Freaky Friday The 13th" mini-event!

$18,000 was given away in the spawn Industrial Diamond hunts and 50+ creepy statues were randomly spawned in peoples homes, factories and even at spawn, containing various prizes!

If you missed out then don't worry there will be more events in the future!

New Spawn & Other Changes

New Spawn:

The spawn is now open and fully functional! There are a lot of changes so I won't list them all here, it's better if you just explore for yourself!

The biggest change is the player mall which is now a hybrid of the two mall systems that came before it, check it out and follow the instructions at the end of the mall to rent a stall or shop!

Donator/VIP Benefits:

Players of Donator & VIP rank no longer have to pay for nickname changes!

Buyable Commands:

Two new buyable commands have been added:

/enchant - Allows you to enchant using a simple command, see the Admin Shop for details.
/fireball  - Shoot fireballs like a ghast! (works fine with no-PVP areas).

The pages of this site have already been updated to reflect these changes.

New versions of the Helper & Moderator Handbooks are now available for download!
