Hello, currently, I am searching for around five like-minded individuals
who are interested in creating a community-oriented Minecraft server.




THE IDEA




My
idea is simple, first, I want the server to community oriented. I do
not care much for a large player base or things of that nature. Rather, I
would like the player to be able to join and feel as if it is their
home away from home. I also wish to appeal to more than one demographic,
in the sense of having more than one 'mode' on the server.




EXECUTION




The
main mode would be factions but without the raiding and killing. Iwant
it to encourage mingling between the players of the factions, which
would also encourage a fully player ran economy rather than just
creating a shop. It would be a PVE experience, that being said the
people who would want to PVP will have their own game mode. The way I
see it is there are two solutions, solution one being that we create an
arena in which PVP is enabled so the players could settle any rivalries.
Solution number two being we create a whole separate world in which
raiding, PVP, and just your basic faction server operations.




POSSIBLE PROBLEMS




The
server would not only consist of those types of game modes but also
things like mini-games and creative. These things would come later as I
think it would be inappropriate to introduce so many options to players
without a player base, which would cause the player base to disperse
into all these game modes, which in essence would kill the community
aspect. This would remain like this until the player base became strong
enough to support multiple game modes for the players.




CONCLUSION




This
is, in a nutshell, what I would like to attempt and achieve. I also
realize in order to execute this properly it would require more than one
person, which is obviously the reason I am posting this to the forums. I
would prefer people with the same goals, those goals being a community
rather than a large player base. I am of course open to opinion but I
would like to stick with the general goal of the community first and
apply to most, if not all players.



I would also like to
add, there would be no 'owner' and 'co-owner' system, all players who
'found' the server would simply be admins. All of us would have the same
powers and access to most things. Some things will be limited to just a
select few, as nothing can be completely open,an example being payment
details/logins.




The way I see it, the more time you
put into something, the more you become attached to it and are less
likely to give up or want to cause itharm. I feel like this is a good
standard to go by as we built trust within our group and ensure that all
of us are compatible and dedicated.




I appreciate your time reading this and I hope that we, as a team, can accomplish this.
