To make information about the server more easily accessible for both new and experienced players, we've created a new MeepCraft Guide. It can be accessed by typing /help or /guide. The guide is designed to streamline the moderator request process by providing automated help. The MeepCraft Guide filters out requests that do not require the help of a staff member. With a system specially designed to allow our writers to add content easily and effectively, we plan to add much more content to this guide to make it the ultimate medium for delivering gameplay instructions to new users.

We are happy to announce the reopening of one of my favorite mini-games, Colonies Capture the Flag. In this unique variant of CTF, players can modify blocks and craft items in the arena. There is a base in the center of the map that gives its a strategic healing advantage if captured. The updated version of CTF includes map randomization and streamlined game rotation.

Additional Updates:

• Profanity is now filtered on MeepCraft. When a message contains inappropriate language, the player will be notified and the message will be automatically removed from chat.
• Effects are back! If you are a donator you can type /effect to reveal a list of cool effects you use to decorate your character.

We are excited to reveal a new feature called player holograms. Instead of exclusively advertising in global chat, players can now rent a hologram at spawn to advertise their warps or etc. Each hologram can display a message that is up to 50 characters long.

If you find a player hologram that is available to be rented, you can use these commands to rent or modify an existing hologram:

• /pholo rent <text> <time> # Rents a holo for a time
• /pholo delete # Delete your current holo, no refund
• /pholo settext <text> # Changes your current holo's text
• /pholo prices # Current prices

The current prices for player holograms are as follows:

• 1 hour: 3000 Meebles
• 3 hours: 8550 Meebles
• 6 hours: 16200 Meebles
• 12 hours: 28800 Meebles
• 24 hours: 50400 Meebles
• 48 hours: 86400 Meebles

Have fun renting the advertising space and promoting your MeepCraft-related venues or services!

To moderate this feature, SuperMod+...

Recently, players have voiced concerns that the virtual shop and minigame servers are not being given the proper attention. I can assure you that both of these issues are being worked on, but these are not my assignments. We are waiting for Coelho to finish important development in this area. Expectations for the virtual shop and minigame servers have made it increasingly difficult for me to release new features to the server, and nearly impossible to gather constructive criticism or suggestions for those features because the topic of conversation consistently returns to "vshop". It is impossible for me to have a normal conversation without this topic being brought up.

I am well aware that the vshop is in demand. Thank you for informing me every day, I appreciate your concern. I assure you that there is nothing that I can do to expedite Coelho's work. I can also assure that many issues are being addressed simultaneously while I am working on updates, they simply are not announced...

In our efforts to prevent the likes of trolls on the TeamSpeak server, a new system of verification has been implemented. Guests are now restricted to the Lobby of the server. A server group named "Player" has been created and requires a staff member to grant the rank. By receiving this rank, users will be able to join other channels the same as before, but with a new shiny helmet icon.

Please notify staff members on TeamSpeak for the rank or in-game if necessary. Happy Meeping

A little bit over a week ago, we announced the opening of a new entrance for the Terrarium PVP Arena. As expected, this was not the ultimate solution for the Terrarium, so we are following through with our plans to improve the terrarium and increase its popularity among players.

Here is a list of improvements that we have made over the past week:

• Hit detection has been improved
• Rules and directions have been improved
• Illegal potions are now automatically removed and unusable in the arena
• Disguises are now automatically removed in the arena
• Teleportation into or out of the arena is now impossible
• A new exit ladder has been added for the new entrance
• You can now earn money from kills, the bounty is determined by your killstreak. Bounties are calculated using the equation 50 * killstreak up to a maximum prize of 1000 Meebles.
• When a player achieves a killstreak of 8 kills, he/she is legendary. At 10 kills the streak is announced to the entire...

MeepCraft now has it's own version of the popular game, Spleef. Simply jump into the portal at /warp spleef to play! You will have to destroy blocks below the other players, allowing them to fall into the lava and removing them from the game. The last remaining player on the field is the winner, and will receive a prize of Meebles. The prize is determined by the number of competitors on the field, so invite your friends to play for a larger prize!

Don't forget to also check out the leaderboard next to the arena. It displays heads from eleven of the most recent winners.

With over 21 available songs, Club Meep is the ultimate musical experience. It is a specialized space with three rooms, each with its own distinct musical genre. There are two small dancefloors: one plays classical and the other plays 20th century pop, rock, and R&B. The largest is a sunken dancefloor, featuring popular music from recent years. Our stunning decor and unique NoteBlock Surround Sound System will blow your mind. Once you are in Club Meep, there are no ropes or rules.

Invite your friends to Club Meep, located at /warp club.

Earlier this week we removed the spawns for the Alpha, Beta, and Wild worlds to expedite traveling time between the worlds. Now we are taking it one step further. If you are a resident of a town in Alpha or Beta, you will now automatically be brought to your town spawn when you enter the world.

Similarly, when you join the Skyblock world, you will be immediately teleported to your island. If you haven't created an island yet, the server will automatically create one for you. In addition to this, we've removed the Skyblock spawn. There is a new Skyblock shop that is accessible through the /shop command and we've added six additional items. You can access instructional material for commands and features by typing /skyblock.
