Thanks for a quick reply. I think in that case, I'll apply. Your experience with BTW? Been playing a few hours every other day since 4.42 and have a lot of experience from early game to crucible tech, but not very much beyond. Why do you want to join this specific server? It's a fresh new server, in...

Re: Ignis (Co-Op Survival Server) [BTW V4.89PHILLIP]

A quick question before I apply....Is it strict no PvP or PvP by mutual consent? So if 2 people both felt the need to settle things by duel or if I ask someone else to kill me because [insert reason here] is that ok?

Re: Your HCS Outpost Process?

In my current world I've only HCS'd once, but then I did start up a base there as I worked my way up to iron pick and a compass. Left myself a chicken hole, a pumpkin and a mushroom farm as well as markers to lead me home. And if I die again, that will be my gameplan- establish a base with renewable...

Re: Vanilla Minecraft News Discussion

It's been said a few times now but can we tone it down with the anti-mojang jokes/comments? All of it still helps towards propagating a bias against all things mojang and thus only encourages more anger noise than actual criticism for new vanilla MC features. I'm sorry if you felt I was adding to t...

Re: Tips for Caving?

I have a terrible sense of direction most especially when caving in an abandoned mineshaft. So when the time comes that you are ready to return to the surface and find yourself completely lost, dig a 4x4 shaft straight up and make some stairs. This way you can 1) continue where you left off and 2) ...

Re: Came back to BTW with strategies

I'm a big believer in harmony with nature. However, one animal feeding off another is not in violation of harmony with nature, and I think that's a big misconception that gets thrown around. You violate harmony with nature when, say, you decide to exterminate all foxes because they happen to enjoy ...

It's not that it feels like bad gameplay...I just personally wouldn't be doing it if I were thrown into a survival situation.

Welcome back. One of my personal early goals is to bury a pair of most animals somewhere they are safe for me to come and get later on. Preferably just out of loading distance, so I don't have to worry about things sneaking in to get them. If I had to rank them in order of desirability: 1 Chickens. ...
