Ok so there are a few things I would like to share with everyone who has posted a Factions server. Minecraft is suppose to be a game where you let your imagination go to work to create something no one else has ever created. If you click the servers tab all you see is "Factions, Mcmmo, pvp, raiding, awesome!" My question is what is the point in making a server if there are 209183302 others like it. Create something ORIGINAL something you thought of using your imagination. How do you think Skyblock got so popular? The guy who created it was a young teenager using his imagination and it succeeded. I promise you will not have a huge server if you do something many other people have done. Why am I creating this blog? I am creating this blog because I want to see unique servers that might interest me joining. So far, its really hard to find one from how many Faction servers there are. It just annoys me that Minecraft is also being used to just earn money. I see many owners only making servers for the money and it bothers me more than anything. Minecraft, like I said earlier, is a game where you use your imagination and share it with others.

So far you have posted 2 things on PMC. This blog wich contains the line: "It just annoys me that Minecraft is also being used to just earn money". And a really nice build wich however has the line: "I build custom spawns for people! I charge $30 - $100 per spawn, please message me!".

I agree with the blog, but I guess you don't agree with yourself.

Edit: You removed the other post. Good for you :-)

What I meant was by people making servers just to make money and not actually care about the players. I probably should have described it better. I'm posting on this account because my other was banned for some reason? I build server spawns for people because I enjoy building and getting some extra money out of it would be nice. Again what I meant was server owners only make servers to milk the cash out of their players, which annoys me.

There is no shame in making money in what you are good in. A great builder can be rewarded if people like to. And a great server can be rewarded to. But in my opinion, a reward must be given after people can rate/use it. Not before. Because then you are running a business.
Do you get payment before the 'cliënt' recieves anything? Thats a business and not much different as those server owners you describe.
Do you let people evaluate your builds before you recieve payment with the option of refusing if it doesn't fit there needs? In that case; thats the best way to make money for both sides! I hope you are that one :-)
