PTTG, how difficult would it be to turn your site, or a subsection of it, into a central repository of information about Eisenhauge? Perhaps a wiki?

PTTG??

Oh, a wiki...

Well, it's possible to install those... I think a forum would be just as well, though. I could clear out the cobwebs at the old forum and set up a section for the project.

I don't really know how useful that would be.

Considering the size of our community and the level of activity we're experiencing, it won't be that much help.

If, as I suggested before, we decide to strike out and try to become a bigger server, that might be of use. I'd probably be up for that.

I'm just thinking it'd probably be a good idea to have all our planning stuff and lore in one place, instead of scattered about this thread. We don't really have a large enough community to bother with a forum, but a wiki would, I think, be just right for the size we are.

PTTG??

Ok, let's consider expansion. We could put up post or two on /r/minecraftservers, the minecraft forums, and any other likely place.

We need to keep the whitelist, and I don't want to handle the crush, so I'll give a few ops access to the whitelist email account. Currently, I have a spreadsheet I use to keep the whitelist organized, but that doesn't seem to do anything anyway.

If we do this, I'd like to reinforce the blacklist as well. Is there a public list of known troublemakers?

And, if the population grows, it's going to be necessary to add some kind of hourly backup script. There are a few ways to do that. I could hypothetically do it all with shell scripts, though I'd have to do some research.

Dragon: I'd have to build the wiki to get it working in the first place. A forum would be somewhat simpler to implement, since I have one already.

If the population grows, I guess we'd need to start taking donations. We'd eventually want to upscale our network connection.

I'd be glad to help on that front. I really do think a wiki would work better than a forum for lore about the world we're creating around Eisenhauge. Plus, in my experience, it's a lot easier to keep a wiki clean than it is to keep a forum clean.

hmm just some questions:
 - what server soft are you using?
 - any plugins or whatnot? (permissions?)
 - any java coders available?

I have my own server, it's a Bukkit server with lotsa useful plugins, and supports up to 5 people at a time :P

Allow me to introduce you to forums. Forums allow you to view the entire conversation. Often you can find useful information by looking back at previous pages, particularly the opening post, or as it is called, the OP.

If you're looking for people to blacklist then the 2 in the OP of Aklyon's server thread might be a start.

Short story, they dumped lava all over the place

Before striking out like this, PTTG, I must urge you to start using third-party server software. Without it, us OPs will be very weak in terms of power and ability, not to mention that it would allow for many things from the console and convenient commands like /players for the userbase.

Anyone willing to make some PR/advertising? We won't start yet, but it'd be nice to have some peeps spreading the word when needed.

Ok, let's consider expansion. We could put up post or two on /r/minecraftservers, the minecraft forums, and any other likely place.

I could be willing to make the OP for that, should it be needed. There's also the DSZ forums, Facepunch, Something Awful (I can't believe I'm even suggesting this), Bethsoft (I migrated from this place a few years back. Nice place, a bit strict).

We need to keep the whitelist, and I don't want to handle the crush, so I'll give a few ops access to the whitelist email account. Currently, I have a spreadsheet I use to keep the whitelist organized, but that doesn't seem to do anything anyway.

That'd work nicely, I think. More people to man the recruiting stations, then.

If we do this, I'd like to reinforce the blacklist as well. Is there a public list of known troublemakers?

There is also a list of accounts in the Jaycraft thread. Additionally, it's probably a good idea to preemptively ban proxy servers in, say, HideMyAss.

And, if the population grows, it's going to be necessary to add some kind of hourly backup script. There are a few ways to do that. I could hypothetically do it all with shell scripts, though I'd have to do some research.

Probably.

Dragon: I'd have to build the wiki to get it working in the first place. A forum would be somewhat simpler to implement, since I have one already.

Once we need a separate forums because of the activity and you manage to weed the bots out, co-opting the nowherepublishing forum would be most welcome.

If the population grows, I guess we'd need to start taking donations. We'd eventually want to upscale our network connection.

Nothing wrong widdat, as long as it doesn't branch out into something affecting gameplay (such as MC currency, items etc).


hmm just some questions:
 - what server soft are you using?
 - any plugins or whatnot? (permissions?)
 - any java coders available?

- Vanilla, for now.
- No plugins.
- I'm a middling C++/Javurr coder, and Tahin might have some experience, but that's it, I think.

if you want to make that work for us, then sure, go right ahead.

Huh.
If you guys plan on setting up a 3-rd party soft server, I can help you with setting up Bukkit. The plugins are immensely useful for server operation, and you can even make more groups (different from Player and OP), such as Visitor, Builder, etc.

PM me.

P.S. I am ashamed of it, but I'm currently running a pirated version of minecraft. There is an option to turn off legit-checking in the Bukkit server, I have this on but it's your call.

If we expand, I will probably install bukkit to get CrowdControl (creeper disabling) and some kind of backup plugin.

I am only considering this because we know it will be so long until 1.7 anyway.

If we do implement a wiki, I'd put foward my help as I've worked on a few other wikis recently.
