1. INFO

In this installment of Server Hopping, I am reviewing the Extreme Eco Craft Economy/pvp server. This server has griefprotection, mob arena, and lots of economy-based plugins.

2. PERSONAL EXPERIENCE/DATA

This server seems well planned out, albeit a bit confusing. The spawn looked great and most of the plugins seem to fit in great. The only issue with the spawn itself is that it was way to big. There was a lot of empty and unused space that just served to eat up your hunger bar while looking around (I say this from experience. -_-). There was also a room that clearly explained all of the plugins and what they do, along with a space for some of the custom recipes there. The rules seemed rather thorough and well thought out. I was welcomed upon login and the available staff were very friendly and helpful.

3. OPINION

I really liked what I saw of this server. The staff was really friendly, responsive, and helpful while I was on, and the plugins are great. I can tell that they put some serious time and effort into the server instead of five minutes to download any plugins they could and launch it. My one major complaint its the gigantic spawn. It may look nice, but it is way too big and empty, and could be shrunk down to a much smaller size, making it much easier to traverse and much easier to find what you need. Another complaint is the local chat. It would be nice if you could make global the default with a command like /hc global or /hc local or something like that.

4. RATING

1. Execution: 3
The huge spawn and annoying chat drove it down a few points.
2. Aesthetics: 4
Spawn looks nice, but the empty space in parts of it look terrible.
3. Balance: 4
Prices look good, voting does not give you diamonds, but "notch armor" is available from lots of referrals, which assumably makes you near invincible.
4. Staff: 5
Staff was very friendly and helpful, and there was at least one staff member on the entire time I was online.
5. Hard/software: 5
Very good plugin choice, little to no lag, along with a dedicated server.

5. AFTERWARDS

This series hasn't been noticed really yet, so not many people are even going to read this, so I'll say something silly. green waffles selling heretic fruit loops to giddy bananas are always stale. Take care now.

Very nice Blog! Thank you for reviewing our server! Hopefully, once we finish adding in all the places, the spawn will feel a little bit more filled out! I will look into the idea of focus able global, yet I am slightly wary of this due to the fact of spam. Thank you for the review and I hope you will review it once again! :D

well the spam issue is still viable without it. Someone could program their spam client to say "/g blahblah spam" instead of "blahblah spam".
