Cool Tips

Press and Hold Left-Shift and click on any item(s) while in a Chest will instantly move the item(s) into your inventory and vice-versa.

Press and Hold Left-Shift if you are working really high you will not fall off. as long as you hold the shift you will not fall off the block you are standing or walking on.

Press and Hold Left-Shift and then Preess and hold ALT. This will freeze the game, but if you press ALT again after the key is released then the Left-Shift or Sneak is permanent until the sneak hotkey (Left-Shift) is pressed (AND released) again.

Dearest Robin

From time to time Robin goes AFK (away from keyboard) he is busy with his real life chores, and while he is AFK the fun begins, they say never go AFK in an online multiplayer game, so one day this happens.
As Robin was AFK I made a small stand around him

 ~OC~Mittens: wait

Robin sends me the chat between Ata and him

Ata sends robin the following screenshot of F.E.A.R. Deathmatch which he just won.

toggles wether or not the specified player is being watched. Player doesn't have to be logged in, or even exist for that matter, it will add their name to watchplayer list, and if that player does something it will log it.
The /bbhere command set allows you to find changes made within the surrounding area by Players or the environment. For large areas of griefing that may involve multiple griefers.

Becarefull using the rollback command.

Rolls back changes made by specified player since you began watching them (or since the last rollback, whichever was more recent). You'll be notified if there are no changes to be made, or if the player has no log. This will only replace blocks destroyed by the player and remove blocks placed by the player had you been watching those blocks.

following big brother commands are not allowed for now but worth mentioning.

Teleports you to (x, y, z). May change y coordinate if the location is a block (so there's no in-block damage)

/bbhere X Y Z (example: bbhere -546 71 -424)
to see all changes made in a 5 block radius around the x, y, z coordinates.
/bbhere X Y Z blockradius (example: bbhere -546 71 -424 10)
to see all changes made in a in the specified radius block radius around the x, y, z coordinates.

Cuboid Commands
Cuboid selection:
to easily understand a cuboid area think of a 3D Box shape. while holding a wood shovel, right click on the Front Bottom Left corner block you will see the message "First point is set", then the Back Top Right block you will see the message "Second point is set". check out this image for easy understading the two blocks/points that you have to set up are A and G. if you have followed the instructions you have selected a cuboid area you are now ready to type a ommand. Issuing a treatment command on a cuboid DOES NOT reset the selection.
- Requires the right to use /protect or /cuboid command

/protect <player/o:owner/g:groupname> <name of the cuboid> : The big one. This sets the owners of the selected cuboid.
Flags to added players are the following : o:playername ==> an owner ; g:groupname ==> an allowed group ; palyername ==> an allowed player (no flag).
Owners, members of the specified groups, allowed players, and unrestricted players can build and remove blocs in the newly defined protected cuboid. Chest, furnaces and workbenches are also protected from outsiders.
Owners can add more allowed players/groups/owners with the /allow command, and revoke the allowed players/groups with the /revoke command. Owners can not revoked their rights from one another.
In case I didn't say it explicitly : there can be several owners to a same protected zone.
The command is NOT case sensitive. "John" and "john" will be considered the same player.
Protection is active on server restart (I plan to make this a choice).
Groups members are checked as often as needed. This means that if you allow the "merchant" group in a certain cuboid, then insert "john" into the "merchant" group, he will instantly be able to interact with the cuboid.

Here are some examples of commands : /protect o:Relliktsohg home--> I will be the only owner of the area, now called "home"
/protect o:Relliktsohg g:admins g:moderators John Potatoe --> any member of admins, moderators and john will be allowed into a protected zone called "Potatoe", and Relliktsohg will be the only owner.
/protect o:Relliktsohg g:mages o:hey0 magesTower --> the order doesn't matter.
- Requires the right to use /protect command

Newer cuboids have priority over older protected areas. That means you can now set protected areas inside one another. This is great for city protection.

Minecraft Downgrade Tutorial

This tutorial is created to help you downgrade since it is asked so much. One reason for downgrading is when Mojong releases a Minecraft update, we have to wait for the plug-ins to update, So while you wait you can still play on the downgraded server like you always did. Unfortunately this requires you to downgrade your Minecraft which can be a little frustrating! but is not so hard to do. Currently Our Minecraft Server is running version 1.1.


Disconnected by Server
Outdated Server!

While joining Our Minecraft Server if you see this screen then you need to downgrade Minecraft in order to play on our server.




Follow these steps to Downgrade Minecraft:
  • Download the version you wish to downgrade to from the version list below.
  • Go to your %AppData% folder. You can do this by opening up your windows explorer (My Computer) and typing %AppData% in the address bar on top or just copy paste this with quotes in run "%appdata%/.minecraft".
  • If you are on Windows 7 (or vista) you can also go to "C:\Users\<Your Username\AppData\Roaming"
  • If you are on a Mac go to " /Users/~Library/Application Support/minecraft/bin/"
  • Backup your the Minecraft.jar you already have, Place the downloaded Minecraft.jar in the ".minecraft/bin/" folder and be sure to make a backup of the current minecraft.jar
  • If needed rename the downloaded JAR file to "minecraft.jar" after deleting or moving the old one.
  • Now you are ready to play on downgraded server, When asked "Would you like to update?" click on "Not now" button.
Always try to keep a backup of the bin folder just in case.

Minecraft Madness

This was an ordinary day with the usual online chat on Xfire with my good old friend Robin (I’ve known him for years now just online mainly due to our common interest in F.E.A.R. the game. We had a clan for that game called OverClocking), this was 19th September 2010 as registered in the Xfire chat log when Robin first tried to sell me to play Minecraft (and believe me he is a good seller). And my first response to him (after watching a few videos of it on YouTube) was “this game looks old” and Robin complained about how his social life got destroyed due to playing too much Minecraft, and the chat continued in some other direction and finally ended. A few days after Robin tries to sell it again (he was damn persistent at it), after sharing a link on YouTube for Minecraft my response was again “still not liking it” and again Robin continues with some negative/positive mix comment about Minecraft by typing “ok, the game seems dull, I agree. In mp mode however there is the social element added to it all, it’s actually a great game. Even though it’s far from finished” he was willing to donate one copy of the game to me just to support the creator of Minecraft. And after a month or so he tries to give me Minecraft again because I had enough of playing F.E.A.R. by the end of December 2010 I finally downloaded Minecraft after rejecting Robin a dozen times or so. He finally made me play Minecraft.

So I start playing some Minecraft, Robin gave me a starter video link for it and I was unable to understand the concept behind it and Robin goes by typing “the goal, which depends on the person. My goal is to create large structures. I like architecture so that’s my thing, kind of. There is item collection, a little boring perhaps, or exploring. The main thing is building though there is more advanced things to do as well if you are interested. Like a simple computer, in game”. Robin was still trying to sell it to me and after a few comments from me like “your game is cheap (just making an conversation here, don't take it seriously) u are not selling it the right way, I mean I’m not interested in joining and playing it again”, and “sell sell sell” Robin types “I’m not going to force this on to you more than I already have. If you don’t want to, that’s alright”. I did play it a few times and was a bit amused by it.

It was finally when the year 2011 started so did the madness, And after just a week or so I was very much addicted to Minecraft and I still am it took a lot of poking and pinching but Robin finally got me into Minecraft. This is the start for me and I don’t see the end any where near.
