hi bobwa, I haven't really been playing minecraft much recently.
a modded server sounds neat, it's been forever since I've played with mods.
I was considering joining the server you mentioned, but the discord link is invalid.

It's cool that both of you are doing well, glad the site works

Hey Intangir!

Sure, that's kind of what I thought. Never would have advertised back in the day.

Nothing that I know of that makes it look more realistic. The mods I've seen just dramatically change the gameplay.

I've played quite a bit of Ark too. If you ever feel like playing with someone else let me know and I'll re-download it!

Never got into WoW -- I feel like I'd like it way too much haha.

Good to hear from you too! Stay in touch.

hey man, glad to hear from you

i actually don't even have minecraft installed on my new computer yet.. i got a new one like a month or two ago, but haven't managed to buy an actual video card yet..

back in the day id be against advertising other servers, but this one has basically been dead for years now so its fine

its should technically still be up and running actually, but i haven't checked on it for quite a while

i think i might be done with minecraft unless some mods or something come out to substantially improve the look of the game, its just too blocky looking to me now.. it was fun and charming and quaint at first, but after so many years it just started to feel unrealistic and not editable enough

i played Ark for years and years, ark has much better graphics and a pretty sweet building system, i still play ark but i played it for so many years i pretty much got played out of that now also, i just haven't let go of it yet

lately i got back into WoW leveled up some characters to the new max (which is 50) and am waiting for the expansion that comes out this month

Hey everyone!

Still find myself playing quite a bit of Minecraft -- especially this week. I'm quarantining due to a possible exposure.

My thoughts go back to all of you often and how much fun the server was. Wish it could go on forever with all of the old regulars.

I hope this doesn't go against any rules on here, but I currently play on a modded server if anyone is interested! Right now we're playing Stoneblock 2, but there's rumors of switching to FTB University soon. The modpacks we play are really user-friendly so even if you aren't used to playing modded, I'm confident you'll catch on.

Discord is: https://discord.gg/xfvbD75v

Hope to see some people join!

hey bud.. ya im not really maintaining it that much.. the server has some faulty hardware, i think its bad ram.. for like a year now.. but its 32 gigs in like maybe 4 sticks and i can't remember but they might be dimms? so in order to fix it id have to probably replace 16 gigs.. on an old board.. so .. i haven't done it..

instead im letting the software play russian roulette with bad ram and things randomly crash and break sometimes without me noticing for months...

thats why only the survey server is up at the moment, the others kept crashing, i know i have some good backups, but unless i fix the ram problem they will just keep crashing

no idea what im going to do with it long term.. so im just letting it limp along until i determine a better use for it

oh, so that's why the site never worked.
I think it's been that way since the spring at least
yeah I noticed the server's up, it's neat to go on and look around at stuff every once in a while
I appreciate that you're still maintaining stuff
hope you and everyone else is doing well, as well

Apparently one of the forum DBs got so damn large it crashed the table and broke alot of things..

i don't know how long its been broken but no one has apparently posted for a LOONG time.. maybe it was because it was broken, i rolled back to an VERY old backup, since no one had posted anyway. it didn't even fix it!

so i had to manually recreate the table empty, everything else seems ok now

any password changes or new users will have been lost

the webserver seems to be fully functional again, minecraft server is also still up on 1.14.2, but everythings been preeeetty quiet.. i haven't been playing or working on it myself either

hope everyone is doing alright

i use the old launcher cause its the only one that works on my ancient linux install, but it broke with 1.14.4 and 1.15+, it crashes when you launch

but i found an update for the old launcher:

https://launcher.mojang.com/v1/objects/eabbff5ff8e21250e33670924a0c5e38f47c840b/launcher.jar

you need to actually launch this actual jar, not any minecraft jars that will auto 'upgrade' to the old version breaking it again

i put it in my ~/.minecraft dir and use:
java -jar launcher.jar

no support for it on the server yet but if you wanted to play the new versions like i did then this might help

hey did you return for the 1.14 recently?

lots of people did i can't remember who all, but it was nice, you mustve missed it i guess

we tried to find alot of the old vets

thought id visit. Its been awhile
