Few questions from a Newbie Miner
By: brennec Date: July 30, 2012, 10:32 am
---------------------------------------------------------
I understand from the server guide that monster traps and
spawner camping is not allowed. How does one easily acquire
experience levels for enchanting then? Do you just do it from
killing monsters in the wild?
I'm pretty purist in my vanilla preference, but I do run with
Optifine because it makes the game run so much more smoothly on
my computer. Is this mod allowed?
Thanks in advance for your consideration, and I'm happy to be
the newest member of this community!

So far, we haven't had any real issues with monster
traps/spawners. They are known to be a factor in server lag.
There have been a few players who have made them, and so far
they haven't caused us any problems. If it got to that point we
would say something to everyone, but as of yet it isn't an
issue. I think most players who have made them would be happy to
share, but you're welcome to make your own also.
As far as spawn camping, that would be for PvP, waiting for
players at spawn to attack them. That is not allowed. Nothing to
do with spawners (mobs).
As far as Optifine, that would be fine. Thats just dealing with
your textures. We have been frowning more upon mods that have
more 'cheats and hax' built into them that give people an unfair
advantage over others. Things such as xray, no-clip, see thru
walls, and so on....
All good questions! If there is anything else, don't hesitate
to ask! Thanks!!

Oh, cool. I'm glad to hear that I can build a spawner trap. If
one that I made is causing any problems, please let me know and
I'll disable it asap. I tend to build them small and efficient,
so hopefully there won't be any lag issues.
The hacking mods are of no interest to me since my preferences
are for nearly a completely vanilla experience at this point.
Being able to see through walls to find diamonds and whatnot
would run counter to the kind of gameplay I prefer.
Speaking of PvP, I forgot to ask what the PvP rules were for
both servers. I'm a generally peaceful fellow, but I don't mind
mixing it up either. Is it every man for himself out on the
frontier?

For the most part, there isn't much pvp, altho there are a few
arena's on the servers set up where ppl can go, or welcome to
another area being created and marked as such.
We are in the process of looking at a PvP world on the main
server, but that won't be available until early fall sometime if
we do that.

Yes, we are currently discussing a world that is just for PvP
meaning, everything and anything is aloud ex. lava, griefing,
killing, stealing.
As long as you are aware that this WILL happen, im sure you will
be fine. As Wolf said it wont be till fall sometime, but im
excited to get a world going for PvP.

Interesting. I don't think I'd like to live in that world, but I
might like to visit it once in a while. Also, I saw in another
post where someone suggested a Hunger Games type tournament.
There are maps already made for this kind of event, so I think
that running one wouldn't be too difficult.
