Didn't start playing it until 2013 so I wouldn't of ever known about it if it had.

Have you ever wondered why some people are so god damn gorgeous? ;)

Why should you be a JMod:
I believe that I should be a JMod because I would like to help the server grow more popular as well as help ensure everyone is having as enjoyable experience on the server as possible. I can, if needed get on at almost anytime of the day providing I have access to the internet. Additionally, I think that having been around for two and a half years I've picked up some skills that would benefit not only myself but others if I was given the opportunity of becoming a JMod. For example having the knowledge of what sorts of things players like/dislike. Despite this always changing the majority of likes/dislikes I feel have remained similar over my time here. Finally, I feel I should be JMod because I am an active user of the forums, although not a frequent poster I make an effort to read through new topics/replies to posts which interest me twice a day.
Do you reach the requirements:
Yes I do.
Do you try your best to help players ingame:
 I would like to think so. Despite not being able to every single question I have a good range of knowledge which allows me to answer and help the majority of players.
How much time do you play on the server per week:
8-15h on school weeks, more on holidays etc.
Have you been banned before? If so what for:
Yes, in 2014 for advertising.
Do you have skype? If not are you able to get it:
I do have a skype account, as well as discord & teamspeak.

It's sad that despite the Portuguese's performance the headlines will not be displaying their efforts; but rather Ronaldo's hilarious and much deserved (in my opinion) injury. Very disappointed the host nation France didn't win it as they were the better side for the duration of the first 90 minutes. A very lack luster final overall.

Edit: 0 votes in the poll for Portugal to win... end up winning it. rip.

Quote from: Nicadean33 on Jun 27, 2016, 11:58 PMSo guys, who will be the new club manager of England? That's what's got my attention.

Whoever it is they must be able to not only manage the team but develop it, so much so that they know what to do before they set foot on the pitch.

Quote from: zomcry on Jun 27, 2016, 11:47 PMAlso wouldn't want Wales to win, hating them right now because of their lucky goal against us (N. Ireland) that put them through lol

To be fair if it wasn't for bale Wales wouldn't be in the tournament so I can understand your frustration. However if your full back had not touched the ball it still would've been a tap in for the Welsh striker behind him. ;)

Voted Germany. Ultimately I think it will be Wales vs Germany in the final with Wales being 'thrashed' by the current world champions. Belgium could cause an upset, as could Italy if they manage to beat Germany in their quarter final tie.
As much as I'd love to see Wales win it as I live in the UK I highly doubt it. I also suspect Iceland will cause another huge upset in their quarter final match against the hosts France. Additionally, if Portugal manage to move past Poland into the semis I think Ronaldo could potentially put in a good shift however that heavily depends on him not taking every set piece awarded to the team because as we've seen from matches so far he's clearly not the right bloke for the role; much like Harry Kane shouldn't have been taking the free-kicks for England when they played Iceland.

tl;dr - Germany.

Quote from: Halla on Jun 19, 2016, 04:41 PMThe reason for why it's high is because of this: To promote voting even more, so i see the prices are very fair.

Players would be extremely lucky to acquire fifty vote tokens in a month let alone in 2/3 weeks you're allowing for the buildings to be moved.

I've never really understood the point of paying money to move something you already payed money to make and possibly own (veteran world plots). It seems ridiculous to pay 1 million emp bucks. Despite it not appearing to be a lot of money to many staff; who are the minority backing up the first post, it is if the player doesn't player often or is restricted in what they can do in forthcoming weeks the system is not at all fair to those individuals. Just seems like it's causing more hysteria and confusion than benefits.

Quote from: Brightpkz on Jun 19, 2016, 05:29 PMI don't think gathering 1mil could be that hard for established players with multiple builds.

What about the players who aren't so 'established' and own multiple builds hmm?

Positives of the current running of events:
- many players are encouraged to participate
- There are very few if any issues from what I've seen when they're hosted
- There's usually more than one hosted at a time. For example wipeout would be hosted followed by a spleef which gives players more chances to win

Negatives of the current running of events:
- Too little variety
- Prizes are not adjusted accordingly to each event. By this I mean one day a wipeout with 15 participants will have a prize of 10k, reasonable right? Howver, in contrast the same event being hosted with less players has a higher prize.
- Insufficent number of players for the event. Now I'm aware we cannot force players to get involved but if issues one and two are sorted this issue will be resolved also.

Suggestions for how to improve the running of events:
- Revamp the gaming world. Make it suited to pixelmon.
- Utilize the servers attractions. In a previous post the sponge hunt event was mentioned. The w1 spawn in particular would be perfect for this event as it's very detailed and large.
- Again, I'm in no place to comment on staff related situations; but possibly adding more event hosts to the team. This could also be solved by encouraging manager+ to host events. Personally I miss the times when unique events that only those ranks could host were done.
- Large weekend events


Suggestions for events to add and/or revamp:
- Spongehunt
- Wipeout courses
- Board game (not sure if that's the correct name but it's fairly new to survival)
- New parkour courses (ninja warrior)
- Events to utilise the pixelmon mod itself. I do not know what events could do this but it could be made a thread itself with a competition to design one.

When I returned last month to see what was new and what wasn't I noticed the difference in the chat between pixelmon and survival. I'm not saying they should be the same, nor that pixelmon is below survival rather that it's not being managed sufficiently. Now this could be a result of laziness yes, but it could also be a result of a changing player base and therefore staff and players alike must adapt to this however much we don't want to.

One thing that is a common occurrence within the majority of the posts on this thread so far is that events and the hosts of said events are not pleasing people. The gaming world on pixelmon could do with a refresh it's true. However in order for that refresh to be most effective, and I know having read the previous posts I'm in no position to comment on staff, the frequency of events and the variety of events must be increased. Furthermore, I believe recruiting more hosts would also benefit the server to allow the new events, should they be made, to be fully utilised and boost the morale of the server overall - things have been somewhat low as of late.

A highly controversial topic is whether to add sftmmo to pixelmon or not. I've seen on many occasions valid arguments for and against from both staff and players. In order to boost the dwindling playerbase I think mcmmo has to be removed and replaced. The issue of super breakers ruining tools and whatnot would be eliminated and it'd give players something else to do on the server besides training pixelmon ect.

To add to the aforementioned unresponsive staff team to chat issues I personally didn't think it was too bad. The only problem I noticed was often newer players who perhaps didn't understand quite how X worked or how to make X would ask for help time after time after time and would not get a response. A solution to this is as snipe mentioned edit the broadcasts with useful links as well or possible forum tutorials. Alternatively, we could simply encourage people to use the forums more though I doubt this would be effect.

Finally and in my opinion the most saddening issue I see is the conflict and contrast between the older players with others who have joined the server. There's little to no interaction between the two parties. This issue is exaggerated by the broken economy, the ever increasing need of a (world) reset which I believe is in the works but I'm not really sure and the lack of change/ circulation of possessions between the servers players. As mentioned previously by others; the older players already have everything. This discourages newer players from working to get their items. As a result the server is not maintaining the new players it's attracting. Additionally, the w1 spawn despite being extremely wel built as all the towns are; it's confusing to navigate around, buildings are misplaced and the design itself I think doesn't particularly suit that of what a spawn town would be, though this is purely my opinion now.

In conclusion I think that the server does have its issues. Some are easier to fix that others. In order to prevent the almost inevitable closure of the server at this point action should be taken to maintain the new players that are joining. Having older players is important yes, but at the end of the day the money is going to come from new players.

I probably wasted my time giving my opinion as it'll just be picked apart and complained about like everyone else's but I tried at least. I tried to avoid repeating leaf whiskers post as I have very similar views which seem to be unpopular amongst many...

Quote from: ryan_m004 on May 25, 2016, 09:19 AMI voted no as we can do this on the /creative server.

The current survival bungee creative offers pretty much the same thing except for the 'modded items' which most of them are accessible and easily obtainable on the regular server anyway.
