Hey everyone, This is going to be my thread to lay some cool down and throw out my opinion. Since this is the 'rant' section of the forums, I figured it'd be better for me to have one, general thread instead of numerous threads. If you disagree with my point of view, that's cool, but keep calm and be respectful - Everyone is entitled to their opinions and that's how it works. Thank you and enjoy my rants! I'll do them well, whenever I want. :P
OP PvP Mods. Well, I basically spent the time I was on Minecraft this weekend playing OP PvP. I was quite astounded to see that when I was pvping I'd encounter a hacker just about every 10 minutes. Give or take. Now, I know people are going to say "oh but u shud recurd dem n get dum bannd!" For those of you who have this POV, I did 18 reports on OP PvP and 8 on KitPvP. Now, the purpose of this rant is to outline the necessity of OP PvP mods - To outline the fact that more mods are needed, and regardless of how much we say "Oh but the admins know what they're doing" or "Mods will come when Cyp is ready" or "Ugh another one of these threads", well, people won't stop until it happens. I'm here to make a basic point and that point being that OP PvP needs mods. Paradox fortunately was quick to handle 6 of my KitPvP reports extremely quickly while not one of my OP PvP reports have been handled. Back when Soul was a mod just for OP PvP, or when Yerrt was an OP PvP mod, my reports were handled insanely fast. It was honestly amazing. I really hope that Cyp knows mods are needed, but sadly I don't know when this is coming. I'm not here to brag about my reports, but I'm sure others are having the same problem. Having just global mods won't work, they've stated about how busy they get, and yet they are expected to carry out the deeds that mods stuck to one server are expected to do. This is beyond fair, and the OP PvP community is becoming abandoned and forced into staying with hackers. The same goes with infection, I've logged on there quite a few times and despite it's tiny community, there is always without doubt a hacker online. The server cannot rely on the reporting system alone. It needs mods and it needs people to step up. Thank you for reading.
Lack of People who Actually PLAY Mini games. Hi everyone, I figured I'd find something to rant about and I thought up this topic. Mini games. They're fun during prime time(Australian Mornings), but otherwise they are dull and empty. Certain mini games are just laggy and boring but could easily be fixed. MV needs to advertise it's mini games specifically to appeal to more people. For example; People who don't have beast PC's such as myself can't actually play Bake the Cake. Now, the mini game itself sounds and feels like an awesome mini game but dayuuuum it drops my FPS consistently to beyond playable. There's an easy fix for this - Change the lava. Make the lava either one thick, just void, or just make it so you die. It's annoying with all that lag and perhaps it is why people don't play this game mode. Survival games. MV doesn't have enough players for this mini game. I really do wish I could play it on MV, but there is just no one who wants to play it with me. The only way to get players is by jumping servers spamming "Join /bw3 NOW!!! C:". Thanks for reading ya'll.
I agree that the mini games could use more people but it should not be left to the staff alone, I think the players need to make a difference and try get people to play themselves because what can a mod to to advertise that we can't?
Mineverse KitPvP Despawn. Hi everyone Today I'm going to talk about something which I've been trying to get passed ever since the server updated to 1.8, and that being a change of the KitPvP despawn. You see, before 1.8 on Mineverse, diamond armour and diamond swords didn't despawn(until they were at least on the ground for 10 minutes or so). It was so much easier. It was actually possible to get a FULL set of P4 from a p4 kill. Ever since that has changed, soooo much diamond stuff has went to waste. This needs to be changed. I, and I'm sure others would agree that it is almost impossible to pick up all of the stuff we want from a p4 kill. Furthermore, this also leaves the server open to scammers. Constantly I am asked to repair for people, and I do it but with the fear of their armour despawning while I repair it. Let's put a scenario together - What if someone who is default asks me to fix for them. They throw me the armour, and I get their full set of P4unb3 except their p4unb3ds3 boots? They may think I scammed them and be unhappy? This shouldn't be the matter. Any who, I've created a convo with Cyp containing the following message: ————————————————— "Hi Cypriot, As you may or may not know, there have been numerous threads about the KitPvP Clear lag plugin. I, myself have posted a thread also once, and I am unsure whether or not you have seen it. I strongly request that you please hear me out. I understand that being the co owner, you're extremely busy although I feel that this desperately needs to be implemented. Ever since the server updated to 1.8, it has been like the plugins reset, including the Clear lag plugin. My requests are simple: Implement a Clear lag warning. This has been done on many of the servers and I believe that it used to be on KitPvP. Make it so that when clear lag does happen, it doesn't affect diamond gear. Before mineverse updated diamond armour/weapons didn't despawn on Clear lag. Why should this be added? Recently I and others have experienced the loss of valuables due to clear lag. Not only were we not given a warning, but we also did not expect diamond armour to despawn. If possible could you make it so that other items such as Gold, enderpearls and God apples don't despawn as well? I request this as these items have slowly but surely become more valuable as time has passed. I truly hope that you hear me out Cypriot as I am extremely active on KitPvP and feel that this being added would strongly improve KitPvP. Every small thing adds up to be a big thing. Thank you for your time today. Yours truly, GizzBots." ————————————————— I really do hope that Cyp eventually gets this message and sees the importance of this. I understand that he is busy, and that not many others have voiced their concerns about this, but I can guarentee that this is a hassle for others as well, and that they would agree with me on this matter. Thank you for reading.
Very recently I've been wanting to join Bed Wars but at least 5 of em are always started and the ones that aren't have a lot of players on. I no longer have to spam on different game modes :P
Redstone on KitPvP Hi everyone, As you may or may not know, the working of redstone on KitPvP has been completely disabled. I am unsure as to why this has happened, and I could possibly be provided an answer that would be great. There are various contraptions and tricks around the KitPvP map that are open to exploration. I believe that these were disabled due to the updating of MV(into 1.8) but as stated, I am not sure. Why is this important you may be thinking? Well you see, these traps are not only a great source of fun but also a way to escape or trick people in PvP. They also give the map an extra sparkle. Without this, the map just seems dull, empty and lifeless. For example, in the mines outside of spawn, when you travel to the end there is a trapped chest which usually activates some pistons which open up the floor to a small room below it. This can be quite useful when activated to trap someone below and kill them. Another example is behind oldspawn and it's in a house. When inside the house there are 9 buttons, displayed on a wall in a 3x3 formation. When clicked in a specific order they open up a room which can be useful for again, trapping people down there. When I refer to trapping I mean luring - having them chase you to get them down there. I remind EVERYONE that TP Trapping is strictly NOT allowed. If these could be fixed that would be amazing. I actually once made a video about it: Thanks for reading.
What is the code for the safe?? I downloaded the map in single player but i cannot seem to figure it out :'(
I can agree with this completely. We have no OP PvP mods that aren't global, and we are trying to get this covered. I'd like to thank you personally for recording so many of these hackers, Gizz.
Thank you bb. It's good to see that I am somewhat noticed, a lot of people don't actually see what happens 'behind the scenes'.
Hackers on KitPVP. Hey guys, well... How to start. This is beyond ridiculous. I know people are going to say "oh, well you should report them!" No. The answer to that will just flat out be: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSQyWSfiP1JYzOiNctb6HLA Anyway, the hackers on KitPvP are simply ridiculous. No, I'm not complaining that I didn't get mod. No, I'm not complaining that I died(Well, to an extent I am), but I have heard from others as well that there are way too many hackers on KitPvP. I've recorded and reported time apon time and you know what? There is nothing that I get out of it. I quite literally log on the next day to see next to no improvement, and with the lag issues on Mineverse currently, it makes it hard to record. People have quit due to this and there has been no improvement. Mods are promoted and then resign/demoted, and time passes by while these hackers get away with it. I really cannot stress anymore how annoying it is being ganged on by hackers constantly. Is there any way that there could be an anti cheat or something? I am over recording. We need mods that are active and only play KitPvP. Heck, it's on all the servers, not just KitPvP. I know that there will be hackers no matter what server you are on, but there is no use in getting people banned anymore. Appeals aren't taken seriously and people are getting unbanned way too easily. How do I know this? Well, when I go on one of my hacker banning rants, I report many people. I am quick to notice when they are back in the community, and it isn't exactly long. I don't even know what to say. It's beyond annoying. I can find a hacker on KitPvP/OP PvP within a minute at any time. Thanks for reading.
