    Hey guys, I'm Apolleyen. Formerly known as RlRivside, and most notably Caminnether. I was introduced to Mineverse when I was around 9 or 10, and for years it would be the only server I would play on. I haven't been on in years till now but I must admit no matter what I LOVE this server so much with my deepest gratitude. The Countless hours I've spent on it in the past has not only given me many life lessons. It's given so much happiness, sadness, angriness, and all those nice sweet human emotions. I've cried, I've laughed I enjoyed. It sounds like I'm saying goodbye, I know. I'm not. I absolutely hate endings and saying goodbye, I hate it so much when things end. That's why I'm semi-returning to the server that gave me my older-childhood. I want this thread to be a place for people to reminisce about the older golden days, of this server or even just Minecraft. So please, please share the pasts that you miss, and take a walk into the Nostalgia. Thank you so much for reading, and always have a nice day.

    I miss OPFac, OPPrison, Creative.
    I play Infection myself a lot and I miss when we hit 120 players. That day just made my whole year of 2015!
    I miss the old Mineverse so much but I love this one as much as I did back in the days

    It was a lot bigger, at least 1k people on the server, as of 2016 the count was usually at around 2,100

    Dang! Then what lowered the player count? Was it removal of servers? Or just people growing up?

    If you played Prison and Infection in 2014 I suppose. I've got a few OpPvP shots but the map's barely changed so no point in posting it.

    And there's a shot of a pretty old lobby.

    I didn't leave due to it so I don't know all or the best reasons, but I assume most people left because ranks had their perks removed(except cosmetics) and most game modes were more or less pay2win.

    It was much bigger. Even during off-peak times we never went below 1,000 players and reaching almost 3,000 players online at peak times. Hell, we were competing with Mineplex for the No.1 spot back in 2014-16.


    Mainly due to EULA and poor management. When the EULA blacklists came around Mineverse decided to stirp us of all non-cosmetic perks and items in our purchased ranks. Essentially leaving players who paid $250 for a green name and a few commands. The staff realised their mistake but not until most of the player base quit.

    Then we have what happened to the faction servers. All the active players on OPFactions wanted a reset for like 2 years before we got one, and regular factions went ages without resets too. When the servers were finally reset and improved they added changes suggested by players that didn't play the game mode and didn't play after the launch day. Most of these changed made such as limiting mcmmo and disabling ALL commands in combat were HATED by the active players so they eventually left too. The active players who did stick around had to deal with countless bugs or unresolved glitches. Hoppers on the faction servers were disabled back in like 2014 due to "duping" and we never got them back. Even after the staff fixed the issue and readded them to prison almost immediately we still never got them back.

    Oh, and at the spawn on the 2nd OPFactions server, we had boss mobs that spawned constantly. Even if one was still alive they'd keep spawning and since spawn was chunk loaded they never stopped. Some players who did /spawn ended up crashing due to the number of entities were registered. (Every boss mob spawned 4 blazes every like 20 seconds ontop of it too)
