General Discussion / New World?

« on: 26 January 2020, 10:22:01 PM »

Would adding a new world separate from the main one we use now, with a separate inv and economy, increase the amount of players that stay on the server? I feel like new players don't stay as often because they are overwhelmed with how much is actually built around spawn, and the towns around spawn have been dead for years. Old players have nothing to do anymore except make their already massive farms even bigger, and it seems to me like if we had a fresh start, it might attract more players back.

We could keep the old world and have a command to bring you there, but have new players spawn in the new world, and that one could begin to populate more.

I know this might not be a popular opinion but I think it would be a good idea.

Parliament | Suggestions / Mob Catcher

« on: 4 January 2020, 02:35:51 PM »

Cyphur says he found a version of Mob Catcher that actually will work with 1.14. I haven't personally tested it at all, but I'm pretty sure Cyphur knows his shit. If anyone is willing to give feedback or try it out, that would be neat. I know that people have been asking for this plugin to be added again, and it looks like cyphur might have found a solution.

Here is the link: https://songoda.com/marketplace/product/ultimatecatcher-the-ultimate-catching-plugin.51

EDIT: I have now tested it with Cyphur and it seems to work very well, the eggs are just made with different ores and ingots and a regular egg, it's pretty simple to do and fun as hell.

So we've been toying around with the idea of having a weekly hunger games tournament on top of the events on the CM schedule, what's everyone's opinions?

General Discussion / Feedback on Events/Ideas for the Future?

« on: 27 November 2019, 01:47:19 AM »

There is a lot in the works for revamping the events scene in VC. I have been working very hard with staff and some players (I'm looking at you, Cyphur) to plan and organize events for the 5th term of CM events. I was just wondering what everyone thought of the events on the list, and if anyone had any feed back or events they would want to see in the future. I would also love to know what time works for everyone, as no one gave me much feedback last time.

In addition, i would love to hear feedback on the server in general (ie. Qualia, public utilities, villages you find cool, projects in the works, ect.). We would love to hear feedback and make the server as comfortable and as welcoming as possible for players.

I would also love to hear any ideas on how to attract new players and keep them coming back to VC. Over the past couple months, there has been a lot of new activity, and myself and some staff members have been talking and we'd love to hear ideas on how to keep players coming back (events, better starting gear, etc.). While there isn't much I can do as CM, I would love to pass ideas on to staff, so feel free to comment below with ideas!

PS. If there is anything you don't feel comfortable with talking about here (staff complaints, other misc. confidential stuff), feel free to message me on discord, you can find my account by looking on the server chat, I'm basically always active.

Thanks for reading, I can't wait to hear your feedback! Please comment ideas below!

General Discussion / Event: "End Of Life"

« on: 18 November 2019, 08:12:27 PM »

On November 30th (date subject to change if people can't make it) the Wither will strike Qualia, and you all have to fix it! Armed with weapons and armor given by staff, you all have to fight your way through Qualia's Market and make your way to Parliament. There, you will fight your way through a secret pathway, ending the Wither's Takeover of Qualia for good! More info on prizes will come soon, just wanted to announce this event and get some feedback on it!

Also, a full schedule for events will come soon as well, thank you everyone! Leave what time will work for this event so I know when everyone can make it!

General Discussion / New Staff?

« on: 2 October 2019, 12:33:26 AM »

Since the server is getting more populated, and more and more new people are coming to VC, I believe it is time that we consider adding new staff. Much of the old staff are inactive, and myself and other frequent players are continually asked to do things that only staff can do. Not having staff on when people need help can be extremely frustrating, and for this reason it would be a good idea to consider adding some new staff.
