    Dear community,

    Mojang (The creator of Minecraft) has started to enforce the EULA. Many Minecraft Servers including GuildCraft have received emails about this.

    What is the EULA?
    The EULA is a list of rules we automatically accept when starting a server. These rules state that we may not sell items or perks which improves the game-play for the buyer. You can read all about it here: https://account.mojang.com/documents/minecraft_eula

    What does this mean for GuildCraft?
    This morning I heard that we're added to a blacklist for the up-coming 1.9.3 update. The blacklist is only active on that version so do not update to 1.9.3 yet. 1.8.* and 1.9.1/2 are perfectly fine for now.

    We are currently in contact with Mojang in order to get us of that blacklist. That means we will have to change our store to comply with the EULA. We're hoping to receive a new date on which we have to comply so that we can prepare new purchase options. So yes we will comply with the EULA.

    What changes?
    We will no longer sell the current ranks and most perks in the future, there will be a new set of ranks and perks which will be EULA compliant.

    Ranks and perks purchases before this will not be removed. You will keep all current non-eula compliant perks. The old ranks will become so called "Legacy Ranks".

    There will be a 50% sale until we release the new set of ranks and perks.

    FAQ

    Will I lose anything I've bought?
    No, you will keep your rank and perks. The current ranks will simply be no longer available at the store but you will keep it if you already bought it. All the perks will also stay.

    When will the new ranks be released?
    This is currently unknown since we're in contact with Mojang in attempt to get a new date on which we have to be compliant.

    What can we expect?
    The newest ranks will have perks for chat related content, particles, hats, companions, pets and anything possible within the EULA. I do hope they will give us more breathing space since these perks are quite limited. And I'm afraid we will have to start advertising on the website and in-game. Feel free to post your ideas for ranks and perks but do read the EULA first.

      Soccer has a goalie, doesn't mean you can't score ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Also 97% of server owners didn't comply not because they are money whores and not because they want to break the rules, renting a server isn't cheap try it and then come talk, and hosting a quality network (not just one server) is impossible. Mojang doesn't see that minecraft multiplayer is alive because of player paying for it. On other games such as LoL, CoC, or Fifa the game's company is the one that host everything and pay for all the hosting, while mojang make millions everyday but tell server owners to host from thier own money without donations... (ye ye u'll say ppl can donate to cosmetic items but tbh no one will buy that on a cracked server and making it prem won't solve anything)

      I honestly agree with this. Too many stupid pay-to-win servers... Didn't follow the EULA before you set up the server?! I'd estimate 95% of ALL servers (cracked and premium alike) didn't even bother to read the EULA before saying "Hey, let's setup a server!". Not Mojang's fault, not Microsoft's fault. They just wanted everything to be fair for everyone. Even for those without any stable source of income.

      :D

      Now I know like most people say The new EULA blows... I say this because us old players who have ranks in soon future what we've paid for will be changed. Saddly. Also for our dear owner Axed who has or will experience dramatic fund loss.

      Here's my remedy KEEP the rank system BUT here's how say you buy your rank in game you get an item a chest or what ever and you place said chest per say factions war zone only or survival within so far of spawn. In say 10 seconds it drops a skeleton within so far of the chest or item and you have to kill the skeleton and that Skelton drops an item that once in your inventory when right clicked or used it'll give you your rank. THIS makes it a global event not only that it gives "equal chance to all players"thoughts and opinions will be appreciated
