    Missed opportunity with not calling it minecraft.world, though I imagine that has probably already been taken lol

      grief alert would only become more moderator work. As it would just notify instead of really claiming anything and you would have to dig down to bedrock and build it up to secure a chunk or some of it.

          Those things are not allowed just to claim randomly and building nothing. It will get abandoned automatically. ( or manually from an admin

          Assuming the claim plugin used on the server is GriefPrevention (the most common one), land claims by default get removed after a certain amount of time unless you have enough claim blocks (usually gained passively via active play on the server, and you need a lot of playtime going off the default config)

      yeah that’s my preferred way to play. it feels more like a community that way as opposed to a neighborhood run by an HOA lol. buuuut it is a lot to moderate so I understand why claims would be good for a server with a large playerbase

      I’ve been playing bedrock for a little while, but I’m new to servers. Is there a guide somewhere for claiming on bedrock?

          Seems to work, I went to chat, typed /createclaim or /claim …can’t remember which one, but it worked a treat. Playing on PS4, so vanilla as it comes.

    What is the average age on this instance? Maybe I was too old already when Minecraft came out, but I thought it was a game for 10 year olds.

      Me and my army buddies all discovered the alpha version of Minecraft in 2011 while deployed in Afghanistan. One of our Intel guys brought it back on an external drive from R&R and we all installed it on our laptops. Soon, the entire camp was playing it when off shift, including old, crusty infantry platoon sergeants. It’s an ageless, timeless kind of game. Like someone else said, it’s like building stuff with Legos.

        it’s like building stuff with Legos.

        I got Minecraft when it was still in beta, for exactly that reason. I was in college, I had some free time, and I liked messing around with the demo - it reminded me of all of the fun I had playing with Legos as a kid. I think it cost me maybe $15?

        Now, a decade later, I still play it fairly often, and given all of the content that’s come out since then, it might be the most worthwhile $15 I’ve ever spent.

      I’m 40. Minecraft is so good. I play harbored games mostly like Elite Dangerous and a ton of RTS or FPS games. Minecraft is different but it’s magic.

      There’s no age limit for enjoying things. I made that mistake once, and I realised afterwards that those enjoyable things make me feel alive.

      If it was a game for 10 years old, and it’s been 10 years from release, then we get 20 years olds :) Also its like Lego, anyone can enjoy it

      You’re never too old to start enjoying things. It’s nice to escape from being an adult for a while and just have fun.

    I can’t fucking believe people are just allowed to swear up in this bitch. Gone are the good ol days when a motherfucker was safe from the shitty reality of the world and it’s fucking pottymouth when they logged into a Minecraft server…

    Nice. I’d kinda like to see games like Minecraft become more like the Fediverse, where you could walk between worlds hosted on different servers in-game

      I’m pretty sure server connections themselves are mostly P2P so that would be difficult, might be doable though since there are plugins to allow hopping between multiple worlds on a single server but that’s very different than hopping between multiple servers.

        In fairness that task would likely fall on server hosters and server software maintainers as Microsoft and Mojang only provide the Authentication services and Game Jar file repository. They have little incentive to provide more than the bare minimum since their primary concern is updating and maintaining the game itself, servers are a secondary concern to them.

    I played minecraft with people on that other site, after they invited me to the 100somethingClub. And then some guy who told me he was high on cocaine kept greifing me for no reason.

    Is there an open source option to Minecraft? Some of the latest decisions Microsoft has been taking with it have been quite anti-consumer.

        Minetest is an opensource voxel game engine. The minecraft-like game made with that engine is called Mineclone2.

      There’s minetest, but don’t expect compatibility with Minecraft servers.

        Forcing migration to Microsoft account and the deleting Mojang accounts, forcing chat reporting in all servers along Mojang’s rules, even servers not hosted by Mojang, banning ‘mature’ themed servers - and more

            It’s done both on the server and client side, using signatures and block chain, something like that. There’s videos you’ll find online that explain it much better than my 2c would, and I’d imagine wiki.vg would have it documented in detail if it’s still maintained.

      Microsoft has mostly contributed to the majority of enshitifications in Minecraft.

      So many stories to tell… :/

    Really a missed opportunity to not run and promote a Minetest server (with Mineclone2 or similar).

          The cutoff for migrating was only a few days ago actually… I think they’ve somewhat extended it so if you want to keep what you’ve paid for, I’d strongly suggest looking into migrating.

          If you don’t have access to the email linked though, good luck…
