A grinder is just as bad as asking a creative person, only you don't actually have to ask.
Not really.

Yes really. You weren't around for the last one.
Well since I wasn't, what does that have to do with how things work now? :p

Well for starters, what is it that a grinder would make a lot of that the world seems of so baren of by claims? Ever wonder why Fenris grinder was shut down? It could have been left running if the concept of a public grinder was a good one.

Weird sign at spawn which I removed, it read:

frinkle frinkle
little far
how i wonder
is a cat


Well we now think to know who the griever is thanks to Qaz, good work. :)
That was me, knowing of nothing better to do.

heh, makes me wish for a server where you could use image tags on a sign to add online images, it wouldn't cost the server any bandwidth, though there would have to be a client-side switch for those who dont want it.

Or you for trying to start another fight, I answered mongoose's question and nothing more.

EDIT: The topic of grinders being good or bad and their history on the server is a completely different one anyway, why are you dragging it back?

Was the server updated to 1.0 again?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

>.> wow you really do have no sense of humor

EDIT: Speaking of humor, my place seems to have turned into a mushroom swamp biome with teh weird coloured grass and water o.O
Also seems to have (partially) happened in the fenris arboretum, looks quite odd. It is possible to fix that?

Seems to be something wrong with minecarts or the track too, my cart won't keep any of it's momentum and stops after a few meters o.O

I'm terrible at detecting sarcasm solely through text, so lemme set the record straight (hopefully for the only time):

I am not getting in the middle of your dispute with Kyad, I don't want to be in the middle of your dispute with Kyad. I just wanted to express my personal opinion on mob grinders on our server, which, I will reiterate is as follows: mob grinders and Creators can both result in large stacks of items with little external effort. Grinders require a little startup effort, but in the end, the final result is the same.

@Mongoose: then don't ask for stuff from Creators. I'm not above asking for a little gunpowder or some string or somesuch if I can't find any mobs myself. (disclaimer: I've never actually asked for free stuff) Again: disconnect between means and the end.

I don't want to be beating this quite-dead horse of a topic, but I felt it necessary to speak up. Hopefully we can move on now; I know I've said my piece.

Just wondering, why do we still have all the abandoned subways and stuff on qaz's server? Because I dug into one of them by accident while looking for redstone last night.

I can see why you closed them off, seeing as it would take ages to fill them in, but really - there's a lot of good stuff down there.

I think it should have the minecart tracks moved to the storehouse, and opened up as a public mine or something.

Ignoring the previous topic, here are a few random observations about the server on 1.0:

1) Okay...whatever the reason before, mobs are back.  Like, back.  It's a nightmare trying to run outside at night, which is probably how it should be.  Yeesh.

2) However 1.0 handles biomes now, it's really mucked up some parts of the server.  Grimper's area looks pretty bad now; the trees, grass, and water all change colors about every 20 blocks.  Oh, and apparently half of the Fenris arboretum is now in a swamp biome, since that looks bad too.  I can't begin to describe how asinine the concept of an update affecting existing biomes is.

3) Something's up with the rail system, or more specifically booster rails.  They barely give any boost at the moment, so the rail network is essentially useless right now.

4) Changing the sunrise/sunset direction seems like it was a rather stupid idea, though it does give me a cool sunrise view through a glass wall I just built.

More stuff as we find it.

R.I.P 2 of my wolfies and a set of leather armor. Awesome fun though :D
(and I can breed my remaining wolfies now ^^)

Server seems to have crashed tho.

Guys, the server is not working again. What happened?

 
Not sure, to me it seems like a somewhat random event. It's a little annoying however. =/

Well, there's always powered minecarts available as a work-around, if you don't mind a slower ride and some coal usage.

They don't even work in single. Soon as you try to go up a hill the carts will glitch thru you, if they can even push you up it in the first place.

I was unable to get them to actually push in the correct direction in single player, I can't imagine getting it to work properly in multi.

At that though, I thought that a minecart train mod was installed on the Qaz/rhx server which should allow the carts to link up.

Yes, you can link carts but I don't know how well powered carts will pull up hils. Maybe the mod fixes that.

The sever has crashed at the moment and I have no way of restarting it, I texted qaz but no reply.

afaik the boosters are fine:
