Title: Connecting to Planet Minecraft
Post by: Quinton_P on June 28, 2014, 07:43:27 pm
Alright so hey guys, havent posted on here in a while, I think I'm going to join back on opti and actually get active. But here is a suggestion I was talking about in game and a bunch of people agreed with me on this. We need to connect opticraft to Planet Minecraft. This will help pool in tons of players, especially if we connect Opticraft to votifier and everyone on opti takes 30 seconds to vote. I put my server up on PMC and got 15 players in about five minutes. I really think this will help the community strive again. I know the problem of "I'm from PMC make me op," but it is simple enoguh to say "alot of people are," or just saying "No, your'e not special". So I'm basically just saying I have no idea why this hasnt been already connected. PMC=More Players=Striving Community= More donations= Server to be up longer. I think this is a great idea, I would love to see the server go past 256 people! Let's connect it!

I'm down for anything that'll bring in more players, there are a lot of people on PMC and with people out of school for the summer they'll be looking for a server to call home for they're free time, now is the perfect time to advertise!!

I don't know how many times this has to be suggested to finally get approved

I've talked to a few other server owners, it works out great for them.

Well the thing is, I dont really think it should have had to been suggested so many times, it should have been approved a while ago!

This has been brought up a ridiculous amount of times. Nothing's clearly been done, I have an account and I'm willing to post  the server so a new acc doesnt have to be made.

Just saying it will probably have to be someone with console to run it taking in that you have to connect it through console. :P

This should fix the lackofplayersitis the server seems to have caught. You have my approval.

I think it would give some of the older players, like myself, some incentive to get active again, so definitely supported  :)

This is definitely a good idea but before we do this we have to fix what ever caused players to leave in the first place, or else they will all just leave again.

I believe our problem was advertisement, we didn't have enough of it. As for the people leaving, they just lost interest and moved on to other things.

What made a lot of people initially leave was when melons, pumpkins, and cacti were banned from the market. Then a few more people left when gold/iron ingots were banned too. But, banning those things is understandable.

Also, SMP's main traffic flow came from Classic back when Classic would have hundreds of people in any given moment. There were ads telling those people about our SMP server and some eventually migrated over (a lot of our senior staff and members started in Classic). But when Classic died, that source of traffic stopped. So Mojang can be blamed for that one for killing off Classic.

Another thing that may have attributed to people leaving, based on what I've heard anyway, may be our reluctance to change and adapt with what the rest of the Minecraft community likes (good pvp, creative, factions, skygrid etc.). So, people eventually lost interest here.

So ya, a lot of things contributed to our loss of players.

But that's all besides the point (I don't want to veer off topic) that connecting us to Planet Minecraft would help us

Even though PMC is filled with 10 year olds, I'm fine with it. Anything for more people.

We have mentioned that we would like this to Opti, so he does know, we need him to link up the vote sites and rewards etc. Still awaiting a response.

Perhaps a bit of a reminder is in order.
