Opinions on Wolf Event Server

[DrGemMiner]

Now firstly, I typed this on my IPad so any format issues are merely the fact that typing threads on a mobile device sucks.

Now, more to the topic, I want to know others opinions on the Wolf Event Server. Should it stay, should it go, is it an enjoyable server or not are the type of questions I want answered by the community. I know that if this had to become a permanent server on the Blocktopia network it would need tweaking, such as maintaining a low amount of werewolves and vampires (Werewolf count was 150 last time I checked). Also some basic plugins would have to be added to make it a decent server as of now it runs on the most basic server interface.

So, before I end, I want everyone to remember this is a friendly debate and discussion, so no rage quits or insulting behaviour. If you disagree please leave a reason why you think it shouldn't be a real server and possible ways to fix that problem. Same applies if you agree with the question.

I dont think the wolf and vampire plugin got enough features for being a "permanent" server, and as it doesnt got block log plugins, nor staff except the HA's I dont think it would work out well. I can say that I will enjoy it for a slong as it is up, it have, and will continue to be fun, but I dont want it to be a permanent. It is a great plugin/server to have as an event from time to time, and I rather wish to keep it like that.

Now that I think about it, I agree with Danni's post. It's a great server, but lack of block log plugins isn't exactly a good thing considering that even though the rules say "no griefing" people do it anyways and unless there was an Op on at the moment, nothing can be done about it. Not to mention how the Werewolf potions are glitched in that you can't produce them and the server regularly crashes on a daily basis.

As I created this thread I was in a neutral state of opinion, but after reading Danni and Fjm's opinion, the idea of it being say a once a month thing is quite appealing. The only requirement would be an addition of a block log plugin and the ability to brew/buy a cure potion. To my knowledge there is a cure for werewolf, consisting of a timely process that is also costly.

The timely process being infected by the dark disease and then cured using an altar of light, however to build an altar of light is really difficult considering it uses 2 diamond blocks in addition to other rare items such as glowstone and lapis lazuli. You could always ask someone to use theirs, but they usually charge at least 2 diamonds.

I charged 2 diamonds, 6 iron and 10 redstone for the cure XD

Oh goodness xD

Wow, what a way to use economy, supply and demand, and velocity to your advantage!

Perhaps instead of a block-logging plug-in, we could introduce maybe LWC or zone-protection blocks?
This way, staff will be less-needed as players will depend on their plug-in protections.
And then allow grief outside of the zone-protection blocks.

The only problem is players being idiots and protecting zones that don't belong to them.

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to plugins, is it the golden shovel claim plugin.

Also I think, unless anyone else has anything to add, the main feeling of this debate is that, it couldn't become permanent but, with say the golden shovel claims and some other basic plugins, it could become a monthly thing? Obviously if it did we'd have to swap from Wolf to another event server genre.

I do like the idea of having event servers like Solitude and Vampires/Werewolves to pop up every once in a while, say, once per two or three months, but I don't think I'd enjoy them as much if they were permanent.

I think it was the best because it was honoured in my name sorta.

Or, protect an area that's not your zone: ban.
