lol I forgot about him D: HE WAS SO YOUUUUUUUNG

 

The drops are pretty much the main reason why people level up excavation though :D

 

Woo! I'm totally staying up I'll see you soon ECC!

 

what do u have against pumpkins?!

also with the enderchest. i dont know everything about them but when they link do they link to one person who places them or does everyone have a enderchest inventory linked to everyone

 

Yeah, but the skill still isnt gone XD

Im tired lol.

He doesnt have anything against pumpkins. He's just trying to keep the economy fair and balanced.

 

DARNIT I just made a gravel monster! :evil: Also I really hope that the excavation drops will be back because I'm not getting rid of it ;). I'm gonna be asleep at the time it comes on so no cactus for me :eek: or emeralds probably. I wish there were emerald tools :p.

 

So a question.. can those of us that have not updated.. do so? Meaning no risk to server going back up without 1.3?

 

I doubt that this server uses 100% of the resources it has access to in the system. So here's a question: Why not, in future updates, have an updated test server that you add the updated plugins to in order to test them? That way, you could check for compatibility issues/bugs while the normal server is still running? It would help further reduce downtime, and when you are ready to update, it's as simple as copying the test server to the main server.

 

yep

 

@The_Jugger

Yes you can update to 1.3 now.

 

y u delet my post

 

Why pumpkins and wewin do you know what the price of emeralds will be

 

Thank you for the backup.

Cisrox, what I mean was to run a second server on the same machine. Not buy a new server, it wouldn't require any extra funds. You can run multiple servers on a single machine (depending on the machine's capability). What I was suggesting was to reroute some resources from the ECC server to run a second server for testing.

In case you were wondering, I've played minecraft before joining this server ;)

 

I think that the reason as to why they don't just make a test server is because they need to allocate a lot of RAM and processor resources to the test server, which will render the normal server nearly unplayable. Then, no one will be able to do anything and everyone will still complain. The server does use up most of its resources because, when it does stuff like redraw the maps, the player count is significantly reduced.

The mods did state that, if there were any issues found with the 1.3.1 update, they will downgrade back to 1.2.5 and conduct further testing. Therefore, unless the server is up again with 1.3, I would strongly suggest no one update to 1.3.1 yet. However, I was an idiot and updated anyways. :p

 

oh why didnt you say that in the first place

 

But, some machines aren't capable of it :\

 

Probably like double, or even triple the price of diamonds lol.

 

That's what I wasn't sure about. The test server wouldn't need near as much resources as the ECC server requires due to there not being 50+ people on there at all times. Now, if the ECC server was using all of it's resources on the machine (which I doubt), then it wouldn't be possible.

I figured it was common knowledge.
