Hello again!
Today I decided to finally make part 2 of my minecraft story. A story about my server!
Here it is, enjoy:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My brother, for a long time had and still does, run an SMP server that I loved to play on with him and our 2 friends. We were all op and no-one else ever came on. Then we got griefed. Two players came on and blew up the castle that we all lived at. (That was long ago though, we have a new map now.) But anyway, Robert, my brother, did a map reset and we traveled for 4 hours away from spawn. Ok, this is supposed to be a blog about my server, so to speed things up let's just say, after a while I got sick of his server and decided to make my own. And so I did. It was a great success at first, but then somehow it got un-portforwarded D: and it stayed like that for a while. I didn't start it or anything since no-one but me could get on. After a few months of that, I payed Robert $30 so he could buy some ram, and in return he helped me with my computer and all things related. It was so worth it! He re-portforwarded my server, he got my dad to buy me a new graphics card, and quite a few other things (=. Around this time, I got a new map on my server and my two best friends, Adam and Samantha messed around for a bit before we got the idea to post my server on planet minecraft. We built a nice spawn, then had to do it again 'cause the spawn changed, and then I posted a server submission right on this site. As soon as I finished uploading it, total chaos. O-o. I had 20 new messages, and 25 people running around on my server, not reading the rules and just being complete yahoos. My moderators had banned like 30 people and counting by the time it started to settle down. And also by then I had promoted 2 new moderators: Samdaltrey and elmokilla99. Awesome players and awesome moderators.
That's about it! I'll get more in detail about what happens afterward in part 3.
Thanks for reading and feel free to give a diamond if you like. (:
