February 8, 2026 update

First of all, thanks to everyone for playing, sharing the server with others, reporting the server’s bugs, and sending all your suggestions! Keep them coming!

The server will stay open throughout February break for those who want to get ahead of everyone else.

Highlights

  • Added [ELITE] rank for those who give back to the server and get perks (DM me if interested)
  • Shops now work! Use /createshop <name of your shop> to create one and start making $$!
  • Increased animal and mob spawn limit
  • Added nicknames to see everyone’s real name
    • People who don’t have a nick will be marked with ^
    • Set your nick with /nick <first name> <last name>
  • Added mob and animal protection in land permissions
  • /land cooldown removed
  • Land protection made much more robust - DM me if you’re having issues, might have broken some things - countless bypasses patched
  • New server icon:

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug preventing shops from working properly. Create your shops now with /createshop!
  • Fixed a bug that allowed explosions on others’ land
  • Fixed a bug didn’t show all players when setting permissions
  • Fixed a bug causing a server crash
  • Fixed countless land protection bypasses

Coming soon

  • Require only 3 players to sleep for daytime
  • Mending enchantment
  • Recall potions (reference? 😉)
  • Queue to the server

Regarding bans

There have been two already. Don’t be the next! Due to the amount of mischief going on, I’ll probably be introducing a phone number requirement to join the server.
