RoT of War Minecraft Server (War Server)

[Boss]

Alright, i decided im not giving up on my war server, and by "war server" i mean no restrictions, you can do whatever you want to eliminate in your enemy. War is war.

Alot of us will be on this weekend, we need competition though, yes, thats a challenge
GENERAL INFORMATION

Everyone who joins the server is encouraged and expected to join different groups and clans to survive and fight with. Everyone has to think about every action they do, with other words everyone that master the game will be entertained. There will be no silly mods and plugins that prevents you from harming your friends and teammates, no vile commands that allows you to travel from your location to somewhere else, and lastly no ranks that allows others to have any advantages over you.

Hierarchy
There is no hierarchy, the only form of rank there is is the Op rank, the Op rank basically on allows you to ban/kick players and a few other things that will not be used.
Speaking of the Op ranks, I'll need some responsable and trusted players to help me adminstating the server, let me make a few things clear about this, you can not apply or ask for this rank, I choose which players who'll fit for this rank, I'll only choose players who've contributed something for the server, I look after the following things when choosing the Ops:
Activity: The player needs to be very active on the server, obviously.
Contributes: Has the player contributed anything usefull to help the server?
Maturity: Self explanatory
Loyalty: I obviously dont want any Op that don't listens to me.

Bans
One will only be banned if they perform a direct infraction of a written rule. When banning someone, an operator will make sure not only to ban their account, but also have their IP address banned as well.

Exploting bugs, hacking, using X-ray texture packs, IMMATURITY, and joining without being accepted are all grounds for an INSTANT BAN with no warnings given.

Server Rules

- Whining, or spamming, in the game chat is grounds for a kick, temp ban, or perm ban depending on the severity.

- Respect the OP's. They are dedicated to the server and spend so much time trying to add to your gameplay experience.

- Do not ruin the roleplay of others, even if you do not roleplay yourself.

- This server is primarily a clan war server.

General PVP Rules


Spawn is a PVP Safe Zone, if you try to kill people in spawn, you will learn that it will NOT work.

Everywhere else is free reign. Anyone can kill anyone else. People can stake terrain and protect it as lone wolves but there are no rules regarding anyone just coming in and taking valuables from you. Items in chests can be stolen or destroyed. It is your responsibility to protect your own valuables and your own territory.

Espionage
- Espionage on the server does NOT consist of sneaking into enemy bases while they are offline and destroying/stealing items.

- Espionage consists of these two things:
Trafficking Information, and Trafficking False Information.

- By this, it is meant that a spy is not physically useful, but only metally.

- A spy can discover the location of an enemy base, or secretly join the enemy team while actually being on yours the whole time. It takes a skilled leader to manipulate spies in the correct fashion.

Rules on RP (Required to Play)

- Even if you do not roleplay, these rules are required.

TRAPS
Traps are one of the best things in a war server, i mean I cannot stress this enough, having a master redstone engineer in your faction is almost 100% guaranteed victory.

Server IP: 68.101.226.9
Server Status: UP yey boiii


BONUS INFORMATION
Only OPs will be able to make a faction, please apply for OP and to make a faction below (Only trusted)

Server is down because there is no ops on right now :(

[Defaulter]

Server will go like this for th most part:

Person 1 "hey buddeh...hey you! yeh you! over here!

Person2: "uhhh,hey....your not gunna kill me and take all my shit right?"

Person1: "no of course not! letz uz build a bace!"

------------A FEW HOURS LATER---------------------------------

Person1: "loldumbshit" *kills person 2, takes all the stuff, and then tnt's the bace"

------------

Meanwhile around 30% or so of the ppl will just feverently dig for diamonds and then just camp the spawn, or run around like headless chikens and spawn kill eachother.

------------


And then there's the fact that you state "there are no rules" if there are no rules? WHY OH WHY do you require admins? they have nothing to enforce. That wil lalso drive away any serious players.

Now, there is an <@> war server, which offers exactly what you do, but with fairness (i.e the ability to make a safezone, by claiming and and then building wall/door) it also has a fair amount of admins.

^ And i'd storngly suggest you try it out! its a lot of un :D

But GL with your server all the same!

Our server uses the same faction plugin as the minit.nu one, so the above scenario isn't a worry exclusive to here.

I think the "no rules" part refers to some of the reservations that we have on player regulations on the <@> server, regarding restrictions on in-game mechanics. The only real need for admins here is to enforce the rule of no hacking, anything else is basically free reign for the participants. You know, like a real war.

[Defaulter]

Like a real war? to an extent i suppose.

Given that nearly every army in the world DOES follow rules,

The rules of engagement for example.

Or the geneva convention and other such instances.

Also the fact that wars ARE HEAVILY moderated and controlled.

But heh, im not here to argue, just say my bit. See ya.

I agree, which is why there are a few limitations. Such as the "no hacking" one. Us at RoT just had some disagreements over some of the limitations on the "official" war server, such as the idea of being unallowed to build TNT cannons or use creepers to blast holes into enemy bases.

[Boss]

then just camp the spawn,

you say this
i say read the thread

Spawn is a PVP Safe Zone, if you try to kill people in spawn, you will learn that it will NOT work.

[Boss]

Im making a non bukkit server to use until bukkit updates to the new minecraft 1.1 that was released today, IP is the same

then just camp the spawn,

^..........*sigh* they will stand just outside the spawn. and wait.

[ReubenMcHawk]

People would do that anyways. Most of the issues you bring up are problems with the plugin or the game itself, not the server.

[Boss]

The safe zone stretches far and there is plenty of other routes to take away from spawn, its not a huge building or anything

[Boss]

BUKKIT HAS UPDATED
We are now using the latest version of Bukkit
NEWS
We are considering getting a different war plugin, because the factions plugin makes it so you cant break blocks in people's territory without claiming it.

[PapaKhan]

Whitelist Please.

[Boss]

Alright, we added a different plugin called SimpleClans which is, in my opinion, a thousand times better then factions.

[PresidentEden]

I am the president of the enclave and I approve this server. <3 RoT.
