Spoiler: Read before you comment Alright, so before I get into this, I know most people would be against a survivall reset, and I completely understand. I agree with you as well. Survival is what kept my love for NC alive after Plots got really boring. Survival has really overpowered items, as a lot of you may know. Enchanting vanilla items has become literally pointless. I have collected a little bit of information from people who have been around since the beginning of Survival. (apparently) The original point of Survival was to have a vanilla world where players can survive on their own. It seems completely legit to me. Now, there are so many legendary items, more being added every other update (it seems), and Survival is just overpowered now. We donors have fly, god, and of course the legendary items that literally don't let us take any damage at all. I know players have made REALLY amazing creations, from iron farms, to amazingly detailed pixel arts. However, I don't know a single player who has played on Survival for at least a month who does NOT have any legendary tools/gear. It ruins the original point of Survival. Here's an alternative solution. We could open up a VANILLA survival server, where there are no enchants over the Vanilla levels. (eff5, sharp5, unbar, etc.) Flying and God Mode would still be a thing, because its important for builds. Survival isn't always about mining, after all. If none of this happens, and Survival stays the way it is, that is fine by me. I love Survival, but I have heard about many complaints that Survival no longer retains its original glory and focal points. If Survival resets, do not (fully) blame me. I know SO many people love Survival, and I know how it feels to have your favorite server reset after you've done so much work on it (For me, that server was Plots). However, it's Minecraft. Anything you've done before is possible to do again. If you're too lazy to do it again after a reset, that isn't my problem. But its good to try new things, other than build hundreds of iron farms.
I would agree with a reset However all of the Houses and builds would upset a lot of people and some would leave but there's ways round it. but just normal vanilla server not alot of people would play It, dont get me wrong id love to play vanilla minecraft id love it. I just Hope there is one soon ^_^
NO! NO Flying and NO God mode. Why request a vanilla server if you're just going to OP it with flying and god mode? In fact, if any Survival server is needed, it's a much more challenging one than what's currently provided. Yes, I mean hard mode or even what Incomp was saying, a coded hard mode. There is NO point of having to fly or use god mode in SURVIVAL. Your objective is to survive. If you want to build something without challenge, use Creative. You people infuriate me with your always wanting things easier.
There are no plans to reset Survival. Keep an eye on the forums for some kind of announcement regarding something very soon. Spoiler: Something
As you said in a previous thread there are three main types of players on the server, and I think it would be great to have a separate server: Vanilla Survival with only basic commands like /set home, /tpa and Grief Protection, the server could make money by selling items such as a diamond pickaxe or something simple like that. Resets are good, I use to not understand this, but they just make the game mode better (at least try to bar the hundreds of lag issues and such that come with it) and generally result in more players playing and buying stuff which ultimately benefits the server and community, it is awesome for a new aspect to be added. I remember on my old server we had an iron farm deal with tons of iron farms, this was great but boring, then iron generators were added (chests that generate iron) but they were overused and people got rich QUICK, and then a craftable economy came. One in which players had to craft pumpkin pies (which required Auto Sugar, Pumpkin, and Egg farms) which is great and still is, though you still need pistons which need iron for the auto farms, but much fewer iron farms and lag are/is created. One more idea, should we implement a craftable economy one day in these resets? The craftable economy I talked about above was for an OP-Skyblock server, but this could apply to the OP-Survival server very well.
