I think the way the EULA was handled could have been better.

1) NEVER remove perks from people who had bought ranks SPECIFICALLY for that perk. It would have been easy to give all "Pre-EULA" donors the perks they paid for, and block off all future people from buying them in the store.

2) Allow some way to obtain perks ingame. I've seen servers do this before, where they allow you to unlock previous donor perks for In game money. This could be a goal and a meeble sink in the game, because you can charge a high price for perks, as long as they are somewhat reasonable prices.

• /fix - (3 Mill, because it was an elite perk and very valuable)
• /Spawner (Tier 1)(750k), it was a supreme perk but not all too valuable imo
• /fly (10-12 mill, because it was the most important perk in the game to most people)
• /nv (1-2 Mill)
• /Spawner (Tier 2)(1.25 Mill, must have purchased Tier 1 first)
• /heal (175k)
• Job Slots: (10k for 2nd, 30k for 3rd, 60k for 4th, 150k for 5th, 400k for 6th, 1 million for 7th)
• Ultimate Shop access: (5 Million, since it is no longer attainable to access unless you're already legend)

3) Allow minigame reward multipliers to be obtainable IN GAME. This could have been either a meeble or time investment. For now, let's just say it's a meeble investment.

• 1.5x Multi cost: 100k
• 2.0x Multi cost: 400k
• 2.5x Multi cost: 900k
• 3.0x Multi cost: 1300k
• 4.0x Multi cost: 3000k
• 5.0x Multi cost: 4300k

These ideas could be a meeble sink for the economy AND a way to give people a chance to unlock these now unattainable perks while also letting people who previously had perks keep their perks.

 

Yes! Genius!

 

If they did this, Mojang would have shut them down.

 

What i think is those perks should be buyable in game, but some of them should be given for free to people with ranks already, if not the money used to buy the rank would be useless

 

Plus a server got in trouble with the EULA, and they literally moved everything in their store to be purchasable in-game and they were fine.

 

I have seen this one minigame server allow pre-eula donors to keep their currency multipliers, and they were fine. Unless it's evident that Mojang told fuzzlr to remove perks from previous donors, I wouldn't see the big issue with allowing these people to keep their perks.

 

There will be so many servers shut down because they tried to bend the rules, we don't want to be one of them

 

Mojang literally gave the server a matter of hours to become compliant or they would shut us down. I think that removing all perks for the time being was the best course of action to simply avoid being shut down.

I reckon that our next move should be to contact Mojang and see what we can do to add back some perks, while remaining compliant.

 

I agree. With such a short time to do something about it, Fuzzlr did the absolute best he could have. Next step would be how to get some of them back. Priorities, I guess.

 

They didn't have hours' worth of notice, they had almost two years. The best way they could have handled this is by reading the EULA, and planning ahead of time. Sticking their heads in the sand and telling everyone we're good is one of the worst ways they could have handled it.

 

I cannot express this enough.

Mineplex already adapted to the EULA months ago, Meepcraft all of a sudden adapting to it seems so unprofessional.

If we're gonna call Meepcraft the greatest towns server, we're going to have to compare it to the greatest minigame server.

 

You know when you were flying through the spawn the other day, then you woke up and you can't even fly anymore...


the feels

 

I was reading an official Eula post,many it said if the perks were made avalible epto everyone, (e.g. 2mil for /fix) the people who payed can keep the perks

 

incorrect

 

You can't have any non-cosmetic perk which another rank doesn't get.

So even if they remove all perks for _future_ purchase, if any player group was left with perks, violates EULA as well.

+1 it needs no explanation.

Lol I thought this was a suggestion thread make this a suggestion.

 

My bad; I didn't realize they revised the EULA.

 

This may be a good thing. More servers shut down, more players available, more players on the existing servers, more players on Meepcraft.

 

Haha, let's all complain to EULA lel
