Hello Guildcraft community, First of all, I'd like to wish you a happy new 2019, I wish you a year full of happiness and most importantly good health. Now that 2018 has ended, I believe it's time for us (the staff members) and the whole community in general to try to improve some of the flaws we've had in the past, especially in 2018. In my honest opinion, I believe a goal of 1k+ players by the end of 2019 is quite realistic, even tho some people might think I'm nuts for saying that, but sometimes the biggest miracles could come out of hard work and dedication. For me, I've noticed a lot of improvement in GC in 2018, compared to 2017 & 2016. The higher staff have started listening to the community and working harder, even the lower staff are motivated and work their ass off to one day obtain a higher staff rank. There have been a lot of successful resets, Anni is starting to rise up again, Bedwars has been added, Skywars 3.0 is out, and a lot more new and hype things are coming out. But, there's always space for improvement, here are some of the things I wish will improve in the Q1 & Q2 of 2019: - More focus given to servers such as KitPvP, Bedwars, Eggwars and Skywars. - Making servers lag-free. - While adding more features is good, I'd wish we'd fix some of the current bugs there are evident on GC. - Promoting GC and new features added to GC more. - There's still room to improve the communication between (higher) staff members and members. Now, I've been criticizing the server a lot publicly, ever since I've joined GC forums in the late 2015, and I personally do see that as a good thing, because without constructive criticism GC wouldn't be able to improve, none of us could. Sometimes I might've been too harsh, but well, I myself have changed a lot over the years. Many of you have seen me rise, and many of you have seen me fall, but no one has ever seen me give up. So, I'd be truly thankful if you guys could share things you'd like both me to improve about myself as a staff member, and things that the server can improve in 2019, so that we can make that 1k+ Goal more realistic. Hard work can sometimes do wonders, and I hope that we will all be able to see proof of that by the end of 2019. Happy New Year! Vojkea
first of all happy new year to u and i agree with you #unbanRahil help me getting unbanned https://www.gofundme.com/need-help-for-10-euro-unban-on-minecraft-server
- aXed has been giving eggwars a lot of focus and it also has an active (and amazing) development team so thats fine - arjen already focuses on skywars - with kit their staff team (mainly adro) are actively trying to improve it by making events and attempting to get people to develop it so that will definetly be reworked on this year. aXed just needs to improve his hosting for this. this is also already being worked on plus i made an advertising thread not long ago which could help . We need a community manager who is willing to communicate with any members no matter what and is active in the community.
By focusing on Bedwars/Skywars I've meant adding Anti-Fly Protection. Almost every game of bedwars there's someone who uses flyhacks to destroy the beds of other people at the start of the game. There's also more things that could be improved on those servers. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the faction server should be able to support 150+ without any lag (Has enough RAM), but that the cause of it might be something else, overall they should keep an eye on it. I wasn't only talking about YT advertisement, new features should also be promoted on the forums, faction has a lot of unique features that a lot of people don't know about because they're not promoted, same with other gamemodes as well. Overall I do know most of these are obv suggestions, but the main point of this post is to see the communities opinions on possible improvements to the server, and for me to receive personal constructive criticism.
And Again. Won't happen until aXed makes a decision... I would help this server with anything but aXed... smh
Yes it does. Doesn't have anything to do with RAM - if GC ran out of RAM the server would crash lol. It its obvious that GC is using some overclocked crappy hardware, which'll solve at least half of the lag problems. If hosting was just based on 'RAM' there wouldn't be 200+ host bragging about their fast processors and whatnot. Also using an optimized fork of Spigot will definitely help. There's tons of them on the market. Fly hacks should be the easiest hack to block.. if the anticheat is this behind, you'll need to pay someone to develop an anticheat that deals with ghost clients. Assuming that you're referring to https://www.guildcraft.org/threads/faction-reset.79141/ , as harsh as it is, it's not enough whatsoever to draw in people. The moon feature is as half as unique it gets.
not being funny but whatever we try, were not gonna get listened to. theres been 100 of these threads, nothing changed, 100 times saying new resets will have new features and whatnot, 100 times saying aXed will listen to the community, here we are. We need to actually be able to help, I don't wanna keep bringing this up but,, I offered to provide configs and his reponse was "I don't want some downloaded config" without even looking at it. If hes willing to pass on opportunities so easily, this is probably not gonna help the situation. Admire that the community is trying so hard to help, but as you can see our result is the exact same.
I'm not a fan of premade setups etc etc., but if he isn't willing to take in a plugin configuration, not sure what will.
"I believe a goal of 1k+ players by the end of 2019 is quite realistic" what kinda crack do you take?
