Factions

Khafra

On the note of bringing more players, how do we compete with the hundreds of hundreds of servers that have, factions, and a good number of servers that are as dedicated to factions as we are to towny. How do we compete against them for players?
~ @Deinen

Towny servers are dying. Many other games, on top of servers, have the "build your community/city" aspect to it. Just by gaining new players isn't enough. I wouldn't play on a server where you can't make money, people are rude, and new players (which would be me) being ignored.

Even with all the changes there's still some unfixed games... aka tntrun, boomo, and ctf. It can't be harder to fix some minigames than completely making new plugins.

Back to before, if you were to look on one a minecraft server list, like *Removed link due to ads* it doesn't give you an option to look for towny servers. After I looked on the link up above I looked on Google. I found some towny servers, but every server had factions also.

I play on a factions server where there is cursing, but rarely anyone does... even though the server has 250/250 in it on all times. The staff are more lenient than staff on Meep and yet, less people break rules.

Factions isn't that hard to moderate, especially since it seems more people hate when their town gets raided instead of when their bases gets raided on a raiding server.

Also... why does everyone base their opinions on donations... people wonder why kitpvp is pay2win, but if you see posts like:

would still bring in more players and/or donators.
~ @mrli1

then more donators
~ @Landonator419

Who cares about donors? Make a fun server to play on, have good perks for donors, and have an incentive to donate
(ie. Letting players join full server.)

Hasn't this been denied several times?
~ @SirCallow

So, many people have suggested it before? Doesn't that seem weird?

Please don't base your opinions on the past... if you have active dedicated staff then you wouldn't have problems in the first place.

cheaters/scammers
~ @j00mad

Cheaters are in kitpvp... that doesn't mean it should be removed.
Scammers... are part of factions... if you don't trust them then don't trade with them.

NO NO NO NO NO NO
WE ARE NOT BRINGING IT BACK
NO WAY
NO HOW
~ @Toostenheimer

This is why people don't respect you. If you actually gave people a reason instead of typing in caps "NO" then you would get respected a lot more.

I don't like playing on other servers @@j00mad lol

Nope. Nope.

Factions people are brutal. 90% of servers have factions. It's not gonna help us in anyway, and by the looks of it, not a lot of people are in a huge favor of it. I'd make an essay on this, but too tired and I got homework :p

+1 I would come back if they added Factions.

Matt has some good points, good job to him

Sure factions has been denied many times, but the fact that people keep on suggesting it should tip something in at least one of the staff's brain that it could be a good idea. Yes, it might take some hard work to make a factions that is unique compared to other factions, but isn't hard work the thing that got Meep to where it is today? Factions is a great way to draw in players, as long as it's done right. I'm sure that a great server like Meep can do it right.

To the people who tell others to go to another server, you sure are supporting Meep by telling them to go to another server. Way to go!

I know I'm not like every other player on this server, but I'm sure many agree with my experience with factions. When I joined minecraft, factions was one of the first things I did. This is because I thought it would be so cool to rise in the ranks of the factions and become powerful. I spent hours building bases and finding other bases to raid. I looked at my clock, and boom, the whole day had gone by. I was caught hook, line, and sinker. Isn't that what Meepcraft wants, some new and permanent players?(if not please tell what we do want)

I really hope the staff will put in some serious thinking into factions this time instead of just waving it off like many times in the past. This seriously can change the server for the better, if some good thinking and ideas are put forth.

Meep can be on top again. Think people, think.

No, Factions is a bad environment with mean players. This would ruin our nice player base.

You can't possibly say all of the players are nice :p

We can hope but the truth is the truth

I guess I'm a mean player then? I joined meep for the factions.

~ @OneBreadSlice

Well not you but many people on factions are very rude. Its just an all around bad environment and Meep does not need that. I used to play factions all the time and I'd love to play it again but it is just not right for this server.

I understand but we can make rules. We could make rules then when they break them report them. I see your point to but I would really love to play factions again too.

~ @Landonator419

That is actually a good idea. If we place strict rules in place to keep it under control is would be ok. The only problem with this is if people join this server for factions, they arent expecting a nice community with no swearing. If they are a factions player they wouldnt want to adjust to a server like this and the rules.

~ @xDoctorDerek

Reminds me of kitpvp

+1 and maybe...just maybe... TNT404 will come back in game ;-;
Why can't we add this back? Everyone loved this ;-;

Toostenheimer

Did I forget to mention that faction servers are also filled with luring noobs, hackers, and betrayers?

~ @Toostenheimer

That's the point of factions, disregarding the hackers part.

Which is also the reason why I do not like to go to faction servers.
Literally.

-1 factions would do nothing for us considering towns is an improved version of factions.

~ @adlovesdogs

Towns and factions are two different thinks you know. Factions is meant to be a griefable pvp environment where there are really no rules other than the basics. It's meant for players to kill each other and loot their enemies bases. It's Not meant to plan an economic breakthrough
