Minecraft

Hey guys!

This isn't really new news but I thought I'd put out there that I have a kick-ass minecraft server thanks to @qwertyoruiop :)

It has minimum 1024M RAM with permission to go up to 8GiB if it want to. It runs on a quad core i5 with a super-fast internet connection. To get started head to minecraft and add the server cake.blackthund3r.co.uk - yes you read it right. Cake :D The name of the server is thund3rShadowLand (it is the old ShadowLand server rebuilt by yours truly and REPLACES vps.blackthund3r.co.uk (RIP VPS!!!)) and is the new cake (cake.qwertyoruiop.com is the same thing - in fact I am merely CNAME'd to it :P). Backups are 30-minutely and anti-grief tools are implemented and sophisticated. Every 12 hours a backup is uploaded to my FTP. These backups are so that if cake is messed up no more than half a day's work will be lost and if there is irreparable griefing (or a massive server issue) the whole server (plugins, craftbukkit and all) can be rolled back in half-hour intervals. Major props to @qwertyoruiop for allowing me to do this :D


On connecting you will be unable to move. If this is your first visit, simply type /register - this is to stop people with cracked versions of minecraft stealing your username whilst still allowing them to play. On logging on in the future you can login with /login . Next bit of info: newcomers cannot build. Please speak to a moderator and say you're new and the mod will make you a member of 'Regulars'. Regulars are basically builders. Ask an op or above for a gamemode change. TNT will not detonate so don't try it!


The server is a mix of survival and creative. Mobs spawn but they do not do damage so you are safe to build stuff out of wool if it so pleases you and a creeper will not destroy it! Griefers are not welcome but feel free to pick a spot and build :) You may use creative gates - ask an op first though please as many of the materials are used already.


Enjoy and see you on 'Teh Cake'! ;)
