We have been tossing the idea around for a while now since the Minecraft server is having traffic issues. No, I am not thinking of shutting the server down, but we are thinking of moving the server over to Tekkit.

 

We have a poll up on the forums, and it will remain up for two weeks for everyone to debate if we need to make this changeover.

If we move to Tekkit the server will become a whitelisted server. All members should be able to get on the list with no issues, and guests that played on the server should not have a problem as well.

If we make this change and you are not member status on the server you will need to post on the new section that will be created for getting access to the server.

The reason for running the server whitelisted is that Tekkit does not have all the security features as some of the Bukkit mods that we run. Such as Towny, PEX and WorldGuard.

 

A move to tekkit will also involve creating a new world. If we make this move I will try and make the old world available for download.

 

More details on the pros and cons of moving to Tekkit will be on the forums.
