    There are usually 30 to 40 players per towny world. Why in the world wide web would you want to split them up even more?
    "No risk no reward", there are so many things wrong with that statement. I don't even know where to begin, with explaining what's wrong with it or asking what it's got to do with a third town world? Are you saying adding a third town world is a risk? A risk of what?
    "Will be called delta ofc. smh,", but why? Delta isn't after Beta.

    We don't need more worlds. We don't need more fancy minigames. We need what we have now to work.

    Based on common sense - you add something new, people leave the old, now there's less people in alpha and beta and more people in the delta. Even after a few weeks of implementation, when the excitement of a new gamemod has wore off, the community is still well going to be even more split.
    When beta was added to meep, alpha was split in half. I can now pretty much say that it's 50/50. Ofc that's not exact but you get it.


    'once new players realize that we have more than two regular towny worlds they'll be more interested in it.'
    Now do you plan on grabbing their attention? Towny is already a confusing mess for some people and especially a new player. Becoming interested in a third fancy towny world just isn't realistic for MOST new players.
    I'm gonna say what someone else said, I think it was killer2themx
    if yo u have 10 burger places, and 9 of them are just normal fast food burger places, but one of them sells 'the big fancy new extreme burger with all these cool things you've never seen or heard of'' how likely is it that I, as a person going down to this place for the first time, that I go get the extreme burger?
    Pretty unlikely I think.
    ''They'll most likely play the mini games first, find out about Towny, then play more Mini-game's to earn more meebles, or go to the wild. And after a while find out about Delta. That's what happened when I first joined. Nothing in life is always a guarantee. If everything was, then there would be no point at life in the first place.''
    What do you base this off of? How many people have joined this way? How do you know this would happen?
    Nothing in life is always a guarantee, love.

    Also, how do we plan on getting new players with minigames if we are too busy making and dealing with this world and not fixing the broken and/or down minigames?

    We need to fix what we have before adding anything new. I'm not shutting this idea down completely, but at least for now I' don't think it's a good idea.

    I believe that was Deinen0 that has said that statement.

    The aspect of your argument is so abhorrence in nature its sicking. You're constantly bashing on the server, stating things are always broken, we're never going to get new players etc. I've said many times in the past that I agree with you on current issues need to be fixed. But this idea isn't going to be implemented instantly 'love'. There is a reason why it's called a ''suggestion.''

    For once, I would like to suggest something for this server and not have the negative part of the community come out and bash on people's ideas. It's a suggestion, not something that is going to be the only thing focused on from now till ever. It's not rocket science to understand this, and the constant ''This idea's stupid'' ''Based on what facts'' ''You don't know what you're talking about'' are some of the mains reasons why people don't want to suggest anything in the first place. Because of fear of the one person who everyone likes dislikes it.

    We as a server need to understand that MeepCraft isn't going to go anywhere or be anything if we don't come together and realize that we need to work together on new content. We can't constantly rely on others to do the work for us. I understand that we need to fix current issues, and work on already accepted suggestions. But we're not going to be able to do anything if Fuzzlr only has 1 or 2 Techs working on everyone's problems.

    This belligerent fear that MeepCraft isn't going to become as big as it once was needs to stop. It's not going to become anything if you keep thinking that way. It's time we stepped outside of our safe zones and explored a little. Test new ideas, fix current ones.

    EDIT EDIT EDIT: And yes it's most likely that towns will split, but the main reason 'I believe?' Beta was added, was simply because of the constant random towns scattered everywhere. There was almost no where anyone could create a town. Sure you could join a town for a bit, but people are going to break away from this and decided on their owns that they themselves wish to create a town.

    not true at all??
    there's a difference between bashing, ''this server sucks ! Nothing is good!!'' and actually trying to be constructive towards the issues.

    But then again, this isn't related to the topic, so why bring it up?

    rip

    You are refusing to look at all of my points and reply to them in a constructive way. You are attacking me, not my points. My points are valid.

    New does not always mean good.

    I want the damn server to be bigger, but if we make life a confusing hell for new people, ( ''where do I go? what towns world do I pick? How do I play?'' etc) then they aren't going to stay longer than a week.
    It's not a damn fear of getting new players, it's a fear of losing current ones and not keeping new ones.

    Not really. that's why towns wild was reset. There is so much room to make a town lol.
    It was mainly added due to large amounts of lag and the rollback issue was 10x worse than it is now.

    Ok, so we have skyblock, kitpvp, pvp, towns, halo, infected, hg, ect. Well, something shocking here, so do other servers
    What is it that makes meep unique? ...
    ...
    ...
    Yeah, this is a sad reality, but I can go on Bukkit or MinecraftForums and make a meepcraft clone in weeks. If you want a successful server, you need something unique that separates you from the rest. Then, you need to surpass other towny servers with more exiting gameplay and incentives. Someone isn't just going to grind meepcraft so they can say that they have 1 million meebles on a minecraft server. There needs to be something substantial behind those numbers, or it will remain just a number. A common incentive is owning a town, buying rank upgrades, ect. However, coming back to the main question: Why is meepcraft better than the rest of towny servers? There are a plethora of towny servers that I can make a town on, why here?
    • Community
    • Rank Upgrades available for meebles via rank sellers
    • "Custom" Jobs (because *no* towny server has a similar jobs plugin)
    ........
    So, we have a slim list. How are these helping us to bring in players? The reality is that they're not doing a spectacular job given the recent player counts (even on weekends).

    If we want the server to keep living or even hit the constant 1k mark that we did in the past, we either need to make what we have now stellar with exciting incentives or take a unique route like this. Otherwise, we are simply going to be a server where people log in to talk to their friends who also log in to talk to friends and not a server which brings in a fresh playerbase and actually hits it's donation goal every month.

    In the process of making this new world, there would be a new updated Tutorial, explaining key functions of the server, Mostly simple commands, like shop, modreq, /g /w / <- local /shout /ncb /nca /tca /tcb so players can understand how to communicate with the rest of the server.
    Individual tutorial sections for a brief understanding or the Wild, Towns, Mini-games hub, Parkour, understanding how to use /shop and communicate with everyone.
    And at the very end since we're a towny server, have Alpha, and Beta be in the same part of the Tutorial, and then have Delta be by it self, explaining that it's basically a Hard core towny.

    The tutorial would be interactive, because who tf likes to take quiz's?

    Tbh I like the way the current tutorial is set up. I wish it were longer and had way more info in it, but the way its set up is pretty neat and nice- looking.

    Community is not unique. There are hundreds of servers with communities like ours.
    Rank upgrades via meebles unique? Lol I've never been on a towny or faction server where people didn't take ingame money to buy people ranks.

    There's another thread explaining this. We don't need to be unique. We've tried for the past 3 years and look where it's taken us.
    We need to fix the gamemodes we advertise we have like infected and hunger games (both have been down for months)

    We don't need another world to attract more players, We already have 2 worlds that are completely perfect. I am EXTREMELY tired of people wanting a new town, its a good idea but it should not be put into use right now. Right now we need more games. If there was a factions towns, new towns would just get completely destroyed. Anyways its still a -1 for me. but GOODLUCK

    You will go a long way to getting me, if you can kill Towns B first.

    I don't think they'll ever ad this, and it would take a long time to build, but +0.5 because you do have some good points

    You don't understand. This isn't what we need. I hate to say it, but it's throwing money away. It's a great idea, and I completely support it later. But right now, the server needs to add new gamemodes and spend money on maintenance. But for god sakes, NO MORE WASTING MONEY ON TOWNS.

    The economy died years ago.
    Steps for refreshing
    step 1: Delete server but save files
    Step 2: Figure out new name
    Step 3: Make in unique
    Step 4: Get 1000's of players :)

    It is, or was at its height, a Towny server. No? The attraction over 100 other servers is that they're all the same - all minigames and no long-term substance. I understand the concept of why we added all these minigames, but to make that the direction of the server seems counter-intuitive for a server that on the "Multiplayer" page where all the servers are listed, says MeepCraft Economy Server. When you log in for there, the first thing you see overlaying the graphics is text forming Fuzzlrs head and the words

    Welcome DaddingtonBee to MeepCraft!
    We are the largest towns server ever.

    I guess that is what is preventing me from understanding your position.

    Again, just want to throw this out there - let's merge Towns A and B. The justification for two identical Towns worlds escapes me.

    Denied. We already have a towny and wild. It would be sort of pointless to have both and we would have to reset it frequently which would be an isssue.
