SmallWorlds Minecraft Server Planning (Building Begun!)

ImagineIt

So, does anyone remember when we had so many servers on scratch with small communities that were active, so you got to know everyone well? Well, now let's plan to make one of those!

Things we know
Plugins:Essentials, YAPP(Permisions), WorldGuard and a rollback plugin.
Name:SmallWorlds
Host:GeonoTRON2000(ReaperoftheMine)

Nothing yet. :/

So, we need a name, hoster, type of server(Possibly multiverse if we want multiple things to do. Such as normal survival, factions, singleplayer pvp), and more.

Multiverse is broken. Multiworld is the next best thing.
I could probably get berberberber to build spawn too

ImagineIt

Well, before finding people to help build and stuff, let's try to come up with basics for the server.

I think we should have survival be the mode if we DON'T have multiworld, because it seems that we're extremely lacking in those.

Factions, Essentials, Multiworld, YAPP(Easy to use permission plugin) Are just a few plugins that would be nice to have.

ImagineIt

Factions should be restricted to a single Multiworld world then. Everything else seems good. Oh, and don't forget some land protection plugins so that we don't get griefed all the time.

All we need to do is set the spawn to the default SafeZone faction, then nobody can break the spawn.

ImagineIt

Alright. Still though, what about people's houses? If we don't protect those, they might get griefed. I've had that happen to me once

True, we'll just get WorldGuard and a rollback plugin.

Alright, I think we have a good selection of plugins then!

Wanna come up with a name now?

I don't play Minecraft very often, it's normally my older brother, but I like naming stuff! How about..:

SmallWorld Servers Well, you want everybody to know each other, so why not SmallWorld? And if you have multiple worlds in the game, I guess you can make Server plural

CloverCraft I don't know, I like clovers, but not so much the craft part (So unoriginal!) but that's really all that sounds good with Clover.

FrigCraft Frigus means cool in Latin, so why not? * sounds better though. Again the craft, but it's hard to figure something else out!

Xylo PvP I know, “XYLO?!”, but it sounds good with PvP, with luckily isn't craft. :D

Hope you like my ideas!

“Treat others how you wish to be treated”

ImagineIt

Ok, no crafts, as those are overused. It's not a fully PVP server, so not PVP, and instead of calling it Smallworld servers, why not just call it Smallworlds? Thanks for the ideas!

If any of you played eRKSToCK's old server last year, it was great, so perhaps something like that. The community was very tight-knit and watched out for one another (despite the fact that there were no ways to stop people griefing or stealing stuff, it never happened), no-one had creative, there were no official staff/ranks, all builds were relatively close to each other, there were no plugins (essentials was added a few months in, then factions and mobarena after that, but the server was best when there were none) and everyone was friendly towards each other.

Yeah, I played that a few times. I agree.
How about a creative world for those that do like it though, and maybe a few plugins, like worldguard, and factions for the factions world.

I like the name SmallWorlds the most.

Are the plugins required to play, if this gets started?

We'd for sure need a survival at least. For me, that's what makes me play Minecraft. Great idea.

If this gets to the point, I could help build stuff like the spawn. I can't code it or whatever for teleports, but I'm a pretty good builder.

What do you mean by required? You don't need to use commands like /spawn, you could just find your way there if that's what you mean. And you could start a faction independent of the plugin, without claiming land.

Plugins make things cool, but they are not required.
Factions is essentially survival, but you form teams and try to blow up the other teams and their forts while trying to collect as much prot. 5 diamond armor as possible.
We're not quite looking for builders yet, we will once we can find a 24/7 host.

I'm glad this is going well. Now, we will first need to think about this:

Start once 1.6 is out, start in the snapshot, or start in 1.5?

We also nee to know who can host the server.(It would be best if they could host it 24/7)

ImagineIt

Guys, does anyone remember the events that Phoenix used to have? Maybe we can do something like that!
