    Also I'm not sure you can use + in your kit name.

    What version of essentials are you running?

    Have you tried adding one line at a time, saving, uploading, /essentials reload and then use the kit? If its an error with one line on the kit it will tell you it's not defined.

    As Amles123 rightfully said. Getting a player base can be hard. I myself operate a whitelist to try and minimize the wrong type of player joining and shouting their mouth off before quitting. This infact makes it a little harder to recruit, but I went about setting up a FREE forum, which can be done by googling free forums... Once I had one set up, I started advertising my server on these types of forums and asked ppl to submit applications on my forum before I added them.

    Players that take the time to do this, in my opinion, are almost always the kind of ppl that i'm looking for. Players that do this are often ones that are sick and tired of joining an endless list of servers only to find next week its gone, been refreshed and all their stuff is gone, or they've logged off for the night, only to find when they log on the next morning their chests are empty, and their house is burnt to the ground.

    But, one thing I will say.. You're gonna get it wrong many times before you get it right. Don't be put off.. there's millions of minecraft players out there looking for a server to call home. Sooner or later, you will have a server you are proud of.. so stick with it, and ignore those who don't appreciate your line of thinking.

    Also you will need to decide what kind of server you want to run. Here are 3 of the most popular.

    Vanilla

    Basic Minecraft, easy to maintain, but very hard to protect from griefing and cheating.

    Bukkit

    Minecraft but with plugins. This means that you will be able to add protection to your chests or world if you need to, make life easier with simpler commands, and give you access to many many other features. This kind of server is probably the most popular, however it takes up more RAM, and more CPU usage to run it. It will also mean it will take you some time to get to grips adding and removing plugins, and also configuring them. Its not that hard, but it will take some time if you've never done it before

    And thirdly.. TEKKIT.

    This is the kind of server I run. Not only will it accept plugins, but also comes packed with built in mods both server and client side. This kind of server will take even more RAM and CPU to run smoothly, but adds new blocks, machines, ores.. and in my opinion, is how Minecraft should be played

    I recommend you join a few servers that don't have whitelists and take a look at how they run there spawns.

    When players join my server they spawn in a large room that has partition walls to make sure the player proceeds through to the end of the room, reading the RULES of the server before proceeding out into the world.

    So Basically, Player will spawn and be welcomed. He/She will see an archway with a sign in it, and proceed to that. The sign reads "Please take a moment to read the rules before moving on".. they look up to find a wall with RULES, and Exceptions to RULES.. after they read through, they will see another archway.. they move over to it, where the sign allows them to teleport out of the spawn area to the world. They will then find themselves on a small island.. where no monsters can spawn. they spawn with basic armor and stone tools, and they can take a Boat from another sign.. from there, they can sail off in which ever direction they want, to start their own adventure

    Phantomcraft:x... i have a problem.. ive been wanting to get my own server for about a year, now i finally can host one..but, i have no ideas at all. And also nobody will join please help me


    Hi there, as a server owner myself, I HIGHLY recommend you don't just add anyone to OP. You're better of doing it with a close friend, someone you can trust. If you need some advice then just let me know what you're trying to achieve, and what you want from a server, and i'll give you some ADVICE.

    Hope it all goes well for you
