Yeah. We don't want to be suspicious. They shouldn't know it until it's too late.
I say that we should get a survival server that doesn't have TNT banned. We could easily make a few mobtraps and farm gunpowder until we can blow up some poor fucker.

Also we should probably have a method of communication that doesn't rely on Minecraft. Because. Y'know. Everyone else can see it.

Ooh, I've never heard of RaidCall. I'd prefer that over Skype though since it's less personal.

If we're talking invade and pillage wouldn't it be best to do it on a cracked server? That way some/most of the people we'd be pillaging would be playing minecraft illegally. Or by invade do you mean mass settlement?

EDIT: Also a lot of cracked servers have little to no protection and usually populated with 12 year olds.

I loved the last time we did it but, as everyone has already said, it got boring when we ended up on a server where we were basically 2/3rds of the server owner's faction, in a gigantic invincible base.

So far as servers go, I'd suggest Gontroller. It's quite large (500 slots), very active, has a significant community, and I happen to already be on it with a pretty large faction so we wouldn't just be marooned like on other servers.

When asked what happens when you are then shot in the other eye, he said that you put an eyepatch on that eye. When asked how you'd be able to see, he said that your first eye would have healed by then.

You have to tab away for that.

As for what server we choose, I would really prefer a server without factions/land claiming. It makes actually invading a place basically impossible. Since bases can be utterly invincible.

As for cracked servers, I don't see why it matters whether or not the other people are playing illegally. If anything cracked servers just tend to have more cheating.

Bases can be cracked through the use of cannons, even the strong ones. Factions just makes it so that getting attacked requires the attacker actually be half competent.

I personally vote against towny/factions, as I strongly dislike it and the mentality behind it.

Not a huge fan of factions, or any other heavily modified server. It makes it feel less like Minecraft and more like Let's-Watch-People-Who-Pay-For-Donator-Privileges-Do-Cool-Things-Craft.

We were always going to destroy those that opposed us. Some people are just a little more destructive than others.

So, what's the general consensus on server selection?
