Can this be clarified, please? Is it only shops, or other projects such as community builds?

Anything that doesn't benefit community as a whole. So the aquadome is ok to plug because it's public in a sense. But me advertising my shop or build project that I can only use or only benefits me is not ok. So Vander your shops book is ok to plug everyone gets something out of it.

Cool, thank you for clarifying

So....with the time change due to daylight savings, people may want to make sure that they factor that in for their local time zones in case daylight savings is not recognized, as Craig Ferguson would say, [in your region].

I haven't gotten the file yet. I have asked for it. Hopefully it will be soon sorry for the wait.

[PosterAnonymous Profile]

Old Man PA asked for a location to upload said file earlier. No advice/assistance was given. He needs help with the newfangled Interwebs and the Your-Tube.

It's up now patience is always welcome. Reminder we do have an RSS Feed so you don't have to check the forums over and over.

Quick summary:

Wolf spawning: This is thought to be a Spigot issue. If Curley and the mods cannot figure out a way to fix it, then another solution will have to be found. Some of the suggestions included selling wolf spawn eggs (unlikely), creating artificial populations in the wild, or offering wolves as prizes for community events. None of these solutions have been decided on.

The End: The End will be opened up to public transportation within the next few days/weeks (Meaning an Overworld road, a Netherroad, and possibly a rail). I, personally, will start working on the Netherroad later tonight or tomorrow.

Nether Spawn Regions: Regions to protect each city's Nether portal room will be created soon.

Nether Spawn Portals: The city's portal rooms are still under construction. If you want to help out with the community, start working on the portal rooms! The only thing we'd like to ask is that you try to keep each room's style in sync with the city's theme. (Example: stone, gravel and spruce wood for the Medieval spawn.)

Rule limiting soundboard use and music in mumble: No rule is necessary. All that is asked is to use proper manners.

Encouraging use of the forums: Possible community project: a group of donors could offer to pay new players a diamond/in game money/etc. for anybody that creates a forum account (that doesn't already have one). To keep continued interest, get more community contests, projects, etc. with prizes (such as spleef, parkour, more geocaches, puzzles), and post notifications of them in the forums.

Rails: There is a strong possibility that rails may be faster in 1.8. I would like to add rails to the Netherroad. Also, Overworld rails underneath the roads for high traffic areas may be desirable in the future.

Shops list: VanDerProtofsky has been working on a shop list, which can be found in the shops section of the forums. To help him out, mail him in game or private message him on the forums with your shop's coordinates.

Getting rid of horses: If you have a horse that you don't want, use the command /stables abandon <horse name> or /stables abandon, and then punch the horse, or punch the horse with an unnamed nametag. Also, please, if you lose a horse, check the stables at spawn!

Netherroad: Restating the Netherroad rules. See the post in survival discussion for more info.

Again, I would like to thank everybody that attended
