The server didn't seem amazingly original - to me it looked like a simple towny. (which isn't necessarily a bad thing). I noticed you had some kind of mythical enchanting thing which uses essence, this is pretty cool however it doesn't drastically effect game play especially for new players. I checked out the website and liked the fat guy and the player market. The spawn was a little confusing and overwhelming, It could be simplified slightly. Also the teleport portals didn't work for me plus /rtp teleported me underground.

I don't know how popular vanilla survival is these days however your server seems to be pretty nice. Simple idea - Clean and simple spawn which looks nice. Everything seemed to work fine.

I managed to connect, however I am not going to rate your server due to the fact that literally nothing works. you need to sort out your permissions. When you've got things working get back to me.

Can't remember the name. He had a typical 'teenage boy' skin. I think. And don't give in to players or lower ranks than you when it comes to giving out stuff. Take that /v away. They do not need that.

As you said, you downloaded the spawn, So I wont take that into account. The server felt like it had a nice style despite it being very unoriginal. I spoke to a mod who had access to /v and permission to spawn in items - Moderators should not have access to these commands if they are playing alongside regular players. When I asked him why he had access to /v he rudely exclaimed "Dont tell us how to run our server". Another major issue with the server is that its still in 1.8.9 ... you really need to update if you want people to join.

You got the highest Originality score so far on this thread :p You just have to improve the quality of the gameplay.

Nice idea for the servers. both have potential. On the space one - maybe give a little more info on how to travel to different planets / use your ship. With the marvel one I wasn't entirely sure what I was doing. I was aimlessly walking around a city (which is a really nice build) Maybe give a little more direction in what to do and how to play that. Possibly use mythic mobs or something to populate the city with civilians and maybe even bad guys. The lobby/hub was quite bad. It didn't look great and I fell off and died as soon as I spawned.

I liked your server. A simple concept very well executed with a nice chat layout and easy to follow instructions. The spawn could maybe be a tiny bit bigger? Its a shame there aren't very many players though.

About the warps, I apologize for not being totally clear. When I clicked the desert warp it took me to the forest one. And saying "We have tons of programming and scripts which are custom" is just a fancy way of saying you can use a plugins configuration... Even so; who, honestly, even cares if you have a nice looking /help menu. Its not like you have a complex server where players constantly rely on /help.

Vivian's Factions

When I joined I was impressed by the tutorial/spawn place - it was refreshing to see a spawn that isn't some kind of glorified box. The general concept of the server (factions pvp raiding) is very unoriginal and overdone which means you are less likely to attract new players to your server. My advice is to come up with an idea to make the server more original.

themodem
I joined all 4 of your servers. Ill give a mini review of each server then base the score on the average of all of the servers.

Freebuild:
It was evident that little effort was put into the spawn - the idea of the server was very boring and unoriginal.

Factions:
Again, an extremely dull spawn, if you can even call a flat patch of stone slabs a spawn. Factions is extremely overdone.

Anarchy:
I'm not a fan of the concept of anarchy servers. However this one is evidently terrible. There was no spawn or players except from 2 afk people, presumably staff.

KitPVP:
This was the best of the 4 servers. The spawn was fairly nice and it was clear and well organized. It's a shame there was no players online to actually PVP with.

Having 0 players online was a recurring theme on all 4 servers. Understandably I wasn't online at peak times but I doubt anyone would even want to play here. My best advice is just to focus on ONE server to start with until it has enough players active to branch out (if needed). Try using your imagination and utilizing your discord server to come up with an original idea for a server and execute it with skill.

KaoshKraft


A typical hub server with the usual mini-games. (survival, creative, skyblock. etc) everything seemed to be functional. Although I joined on a weekday (not peak time) it seemed like there was somewhat of a community. The idea of the server isn't very original or unique however if its true you have been running for 5 years that is impressive.

RealSurvival

When I first connected I had high hopes for this server, I really enjoyed the tutorial as it gave a professional impression. The more I played and walked around I noticed it was fairly messy, you had a load of plugins (some of which I believe are quite unnecessary). The warps for the different biomes didn't work and the terrain near spawn was very messed up - lots of griefed buildings and craters. The spawn was quite boring (probably downloaded). However I can see potential in the server.

Craft Your Town

Quite a nice server from what I saw. Towny, a pretty good player base, quests and slimefun. The spawn seemed fairly boring - a spawn you would typically see on a factions server. The chat was an absolute mess - The very disorganized titles with the &k magic letter thing. Hurts my brain :P but overall fairly good.

When I first joined I could see that this server was quite original however literally nothing worked haha. I couldn't get past the mage - I'm assuming the torch was the button but I don't think I had permission to use it so the door didn't open despite the mage telling me to go through.

Come back here when you can get stuff to work! :)

Simpleprison.com

The name of the server says it all - simple prison. Nothing wrong with it however there is not many original features. Why would a player want to play on your server over another prison server? correct me if i'm wrong; you downloaded a prison map and a few prison plugins then put it online.

I liked how there are shops and player plots as well as cells. if there were lots more players it would be worth playing but unfortunately your server, the way it is, will never attract that many players.
