Welcome to Server Problems Weekly. I decided to start posting weekly about my issues with minecraft servers, and what admins should take into account. There will also be Server Sunday where I will do a review/shoutout to any server that I might see/play on. But for now SPW.

First on the agenda, we have those guys. Yeah, you know which ones I'm talking about. I'm talking about those guys geared up in their diamond armor, ready to kill the first new guy who happens to try to slip by. Yeah, those guys. I personally think that some servers should have this revoked.



Ok, I know that they're PVP servers, but come ON. I just want to survive, and maybe be like you guys. But that's really difficult when there's a team of 10 full enchant diamond armor guys, Sharpness 4 swords with fire aspect 2, Bows with Power 4 and infinity 1. Seriously, It's not fair at all. I always say when someone dies and cries about it, It's just like: Dude, it's how a PVP server works. But the spawn campers just take that rule to a whole new level.



Let me give you some perspective if you're not following. Let's say you login to a new server (We'll call it Baconcraft) and you want to go out into the world and survive, find diamonds, make friends, and do all sorts of stuff. Now imagine a long-ass wall of 8 players with full, enchanted diamond armor, diamond sword, and bow. You think that they'll let you pass, then you get raped by them. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

I just request this one thing, and suggest to others. If you're not going to revoke it, please make it a little bit easier for the new people to get out ALIVE. Maybe expand the safezone, because you cant do /warp wild, they'll spawn camp the hell out of it. If the safezone had a wider area, maybe it would have more safe spots to get out and actually DO something.



This is been Server Problems Weekly 1. I hope you enjoyed. If anyone reads this, give me some feedback on other blogs I can do on other days of the week. I think that with this acception, SPW is going to be on Tuesday, and don't forget, Server Sunday every sunday. If you have suggestions for Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, let me know. Thanks guys, you're the best.

I know the pain. That is why I wrote this blog, in hope that admins see this and understand how we as players feel about their Spawn Camping. I just hope that they keep a rule that Spawn Camping isn't allowed, only at PVP Arenas.

This is why I play on small servers with no pvp including an average of 5 people on. Nice blog, and diamonds to you!

Not to be mean or anything, but can you not curse in the title (even if you DID censor it)? It makes me thing less of the blog even when it was actually pretty great. Thanks.

-Happy Blogging,

I'll do my best to remember that. But if I feel it's necessary, I will do it. But I promise, that I will censor out any and all cursing done in these blogs.

So you will get 3 blogs a week from me. Thank you :)
