Honestly i would like to see a nice new map for the server.... But at the same time.... People that do not know of this situation willl rage very hard... I think its possible to have 2 maps per server... Maybe we could have 2 different worlds to move our stuff to the new world before the reset? its a suggestion that may not be condsidered, but i think it would be nice for people to have some of their stuff when/if the server restarts, i vote not to reset the server based on my opinion :D

Original I was for the reset but now Im not sure. I was not happy with some of my builds and I kinda do want another fresh start again with them or other builds, also I had such great fortune to have the server maze built near my town (Thanks Lazt!) and now have a beautiful view of someone's giant wood house right outside my town. Anyway I feel the server could still grow more and player could learn to trust each other better.

Im still on the fence about the reset but hopefully I'll make my choose soon or I wont have to cause one will up by like 10 votes, idk. :P

I do really want a reset, even though I just started building on my new project that I've already spent a lot of work on but still I'm all for it.

Just an incentive to make people accept the reset. Also, people who enter the capsule get moved to a new group, the "frozen" or something. Makes a list of people to keep files from and makes them not able to use commands to teleport.

We want people to pick fairly, we don't want to bribe players to pick one over the other. If the server resets, I think it's only fair everyone start on the same level. There's no fun in people having unfair advantages over others. ):

good idea, tarquin u hurd em, bring back lockers :D. im for a reset, yeah hours spent wasted on my village and the town i live in, yea months spent waiting for something to be finished built. walk outside spawn, walk outside any server build from lazt's race, to the grand prison... what do u see?? doors? chest? random blocks? old houses?.. on LD map 2 Arcania had a huge spawn protection which was nice, if i brought a friend on or shot a video 90% of peoples render distance really couldnt see the jungle ripped up.

Yes our builds will be gone, yes our money will be gone, and yes ur favorite animal in the farm u have as a pet will be gone, but think of it this way.

1. You know what u want to build and u know how its gonna look so build it again... but better

2. money is money im sure we will be able to sell cobble, sand, gravel

3. A whole new spawn of animals.. wolves, cows, pigs, chickens all of em back

and this is the last thing i wanna say and im done.. please if the map restarts dont iron and gold farms...

>.> Don't even joke about the lockers. You weren't here for that pain. It was horrific. <.< Also if I read correctly Massalia would be coming along so if all the shops are open right away it means you'd be able to sell more than just cobble and sand.

It may be a disadvantage or unfair, but for those who DON'T want this at all, they should be provided with the option to keep some items. People who DON'T want this are already at a disadvantage, being forced into a decision they really don't want. People people who want a reset can choose to not have items transfered over, by simply having nothing in their inventory upon reset, easily solution.

As I said in my previous post IF people really want to start over then do it..GO, disband your town, give away ALL your items...Start fresh, it really isn't any easier then that..

As for all the garbage lying around..Doors,chests, random junk..Maybe a bit of work can be done, by Tarquin, Abyssal's, mods to get rid of them, essentially that is what is going to happen anyway with a reset. Check to see who built it, placed it, see if they're banned or haven't been on in a reasonable amount of time and make a decision. If it's not in a town, and hasn't been touched in a while, it's a safe bet that it's been abandoned.

There ARE alternatives to this problems that would make both sides happy.

Maybe give Premiums, and Vips the option to store items safely in their house in Massilia and transfer that over.

-_- Why is everyone talking about me?

Also, my opinion on the reset: I don't want it, mainly because being 'bored' for me just means I need to find a new building project, not start over entirely.

Basically, I agree wholeheartedly with everything Sed has said. (Hey, that sorta rhymes!)

I think most people voting against the reset would think otherwise if they could bring things over...

I agree with this.

And for the people who have just joined in the past few weeks wouldn't it be better to reset now and start fresh, then lose everything you worked on when the next reset happens? I do understand that this wouldn't apply to people who have been here since the last reset but idk.

Just saying.

If the map does reset I hope theres a tax for the town instead of just t spawning all the time, I really feel that in the 2nd map the Stress was High but to the point where it was fun. And so I am really looking forward to a map change.

I highly agree with your statement....like I said about the second map and the third map it wasn't as promising because of the fact that the tax was gone so you had no stress on checking the town and such.

    • Public Server Reset Coming Soon
      By SpitefulBatman
      This is a quick announcement that yes, the rumors are true, after several years we are finally revamping the public server.
      Not alot of information has been prepped for release to the public, however we are working on a few ideas we hope you all love and some extra fun perks for the premium and VIP members.
      But Tarquin, you haven't told us anything?!
      You're right, well I can tell you a couple of things;
      The first you won't like but it has to happen. Your inventory nor any chests or items of ANY KIND will be coming over. So have fun with them while they last. We will possibly run an apocolypse like normal, so feel free to gather and prepare your Diamond armor and Swords, although it usually doesn't help against my mighty horde of Withers. There will be a new rank available, exact details haven't been finalized. That is Builder. Builder's will be approached by management (You cannot apply for it) based on the quality of your builds as well as your community reputation. Builders will be involved in server builds whenever we are doing them (We hope to be more frequent) We are no longer taking applications for staff, much like builder we will be approaching trusted members with a positive community reputation. We ARE taking suggestions (Nothing is guaranteed), you may reply to this topic with a suggestion. All suggestions should follow the rules below. The date of the reset is not yet confirmed, we are currently working to build certain aspects of the new server before we set a date. Stay tuned. More information will follow once we finalize the features and details. Also stay tuned for this!  
      Suggestion Guidelines
      First and foremost, serious suggestions only. Don't reply with "me too" responses, simply click the like button (Bottom right of posts) to add your support. Reply if you have your own suggestion or a similar but different one to an existing one. No debates or arguments in this topic. Tell your friends to come have their say also. We are remaining survival multiplayer, not creative.

    • LDShadowLady Server Donations
      By Moonwolf2
      I noticed the LDShadowLady server has been going downhill lately and I really want to bring it back to life but I need your help. Every little thing you can do can make a HUGE difference. I have been playing on the server for 4+ years and it would break my heart to see it get shut down. I remember when it used to be packed with players and everyone was making towns and little shops.
      If you can please donate to the server or spread word!
    • Website Upgrade & Server Status
      By SpitefulBatman
      Upgraded Website
      Today I am posting to officially announce that the website has undergone some fairly major upgrades, as you can probably see.
      As of this post, we are still waiting for the upgrade of our own look and feel to be completed for the new software, however most of the functionality has been restored already.
      In addition we have some nice new features such as the Member Map and new Support System. All punishment appeals will now be run through the support system to better streamline the responsiveness of moderators and other team members. We hope this will ensure faster and more efficient responses from the team overall. In addition you will ALSO see that suggestions and bugs can be posted through here too. We prefer them posted there but if you want community input, you are welcome to use the existing forum to nut out your idea before posting it officially via the Suggestion Submission system.
      Hopefully we will all notice some performance improvements with this upgrade as well as a much much higher compatibility with Mobile and Tablet Devices!
      Server Status
      We are currently finished the prep work required to reset the server. There is a temporary Ancient World that has been put up to allow users to play around during this time. We expect the entire process to be completed before the end of this weekend.
      As far as towns and emeralds are concerned, we HAVE calculated how much each town Mayor will be given. All recorded town mayors will be receiving a partial refund to allow them to establish towns of reasonable size after the reset. The number was built upon how many users each town had at the time our original announcement was made... NOT how many plots or outposts the town had.
      Why can't we just get a full refund?
      Villagers spawned at huge rates due to the way that towns were spawning. This resulted in a massive influx of ill-gotten emeralds that should not have existed. As mentioned in the previous topic there were towns with hundreds upon hundreds of emeralds and even a few with thousands... all within 2 weeks. As such we felt it unfair to take them all away as at least some would have been obtained legitimatly. Partial refund calculations have been saved and will be issued within the next week to mayors.
      For all other members: look to your mayor for a re-invitiation or to otherwise negotiate your share of the refund. The Mayor has discretion at this time and we will not be stepping in to divvy up the spoils.
      Premium Users
      Over the coming weeks I will be organising 2 week passes for Premium users to reimburse for the past 2 weeks.
       
      We sincerly apologize that the plugin failure has caused such a mess. We hope to rectify it and leave it be after this final set of fixes rolls out. We hope that you can all understand the reasons behind the reset (Even though the members voted for it)
      Web Store
      Along with the server and website upgrades, the webstore has been updated to reflect both sets of changes. This includes the new currency and new discounts offered for Premium and VIP members. View the new store here.
      We are still accepting suggestions for new items and even entire kits via the new suggestion system. While we try to take every suggestion seriously, we certainly can't guarantee that your idea will make it to live. You may suggest names, text colours, item stats and even the price we sell them at. If sold, you will be given the first created one (free of charge) and your name will be displayed in the store as 'Designed By: '
      SIDENOTE: The TeamSpeak server has also received a minor codec upgrade which should improve the voice quality. Please let us know if there is anything wrong and we can rollback to the previous config.
      Thank you for reading my Text-Wall. We sincerly welcome feedback and are thankful that you are all here to enjoy the new features with us.
      Kind Regards,
      The Abyssal Gaming Network Team
