Best Posts in Thread: The Meepcraft Effect.

The Meepcraft Effect is a simple equation I've made up.

Towny Server = Players want to create their own town = 9/10 players owning their own towns = No space in towny worlds for more towns = Results in more towny worlds being added ea.. alpha, beta finally gamma = No players joining everybody's town which results in players quitting = Less revenue for the server.

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

Meepcraft needs a serious update. Lets look at Meepcraft's past to understand why the server was so successful.
Towns were expensive. Not everybody and their mother owned a town.
Item values actually fluctuated in value depending upon players buying or selling.
Focusing on Events (Server Drop Parties, TNT runs, wild hunts etc)
Focusing on the Towny Aspect of the server, not so much Mini-Games.
Custom Items specifically for the Towny world.

I'm not trying to bash on the server. I'm just pointing out it's flaws. Flaws that will hopefully be brought to light and fixed.

 

The misconception is Trello was not designed for this size of a server. At the time it came out (for staff purposes only) the server was much larger. The issue isn't Trello, but players demanding too much to be done, not enough staff to do it in a reasonable time, and the staff promising to do too much originally.

 

When you take a look at the server, the only word to describe it is.... well... depressing. People talk about leaving all the time and how the "old meep was better." Who wants to commit to a server like that?

 

Its also due to minecraft being a dying game. People cant make content that people will stick around for. I don't think I've opened minecraft in 5 months.
