Server is back

The Server is back so come on and join us

Never mind that, it is gone gone gone again, it may come back or maybe not.

The server needs to be back up right?

Hey Guys,

These days i've been bored, im sure you all have been really. Thinking that I just want to go back onto minecraft and play again, the singleplayer just isn't the same as the multiplayer and I would love to see the server come back online so I can set my mind on a goal to keep me busy. The server does need improving and atleast getting rid of the shops because it pretty much defeats the object of survival and it is nice just to be simple. So if anyone has actually read this go ahead and moan at Robin if you have a way to chat with him and tell him to get the server back up! :)

I miss Our Minecraft Server, now that it is closed I miss it more than ever, it was our playground and a way for us to stick together, I am with Chiink on this one to bring back the server, there is always room to make the server better and I would like everyone's suggestions how we can improve it. Please do comment on this post and let your voice be heard.

Although I might not play as much as before and probably shouldn't but I will surely be coming on once in a while.

The Game

Giddy up horsey!

Mojang's lead developer on Minecraft, Jens Bergenstern has made no secret that they plan to add horses to the game in its upcoming 1.6 update.

The developer today said that in addition to horses, players will be able to tie their steeds to fence posts so they don't wander off. Players will also be able to equip them with horse armor so they'll be able to take a beating from zombies and the like.

A Mojang developer Marc_IRL joked that "Mojang announces horse armor, is sued AGAIN by Bethesda." The joke comes from the fact that one of the first ever DLC released was a piece of downloadable horse armor for Oblivion, which sold for a dollar and made the company the butt of jokes. Those who made fun of the company were incredulous to the fact that it actually sold well, prompting many other studios to follow in lockstep to Bethesda's DLC experiment.

In addition to the horse armor announcement, another developer, Nathan "Dinnerbone" Adams, says that the team is considering the implementation of regional difficulty. "The longer you spend in one area, the harder it gets".

There's a good chance that we'll be seeing the feature in a future snapshot of the game.
