vote Time for a WIPE on Tekkit Server? Vote and decide!

[brunyman]

So we got some requests for a server WIPE, and also the server map is full and harder for new players to start. There are also issues with lag from some big bases.

The last server WIPE was on 8 Octomber 2018, almost 6 months ago.

The reset will get us new map seeds, fresh start for all, all data reset except ranks and less lag. We will provide a download link of the existing overworld map.

 

Check server stats here:  http://minecraft-mp.com/server/14938/stats/

And Live Map here:  http://tekkit.craftersland.net:25800/#

 

Vote in the pool above and let us know what to do next. Thanks!

Tekkit should be wiped every 2 months or so its not even a joke at this point.

WIPE

Wipe is fine for me but every two months is stupid, 6 months is fine.

 

But why not regulade what people build some people go to crazy and build so much BS they dont need or use. Like 60 lasers or 25 farms and so on.

Yes

Why do we even wipe. there has to be a better solution. A server I ised to play on kept the plots of players while wiping the rest of the server clean

I really like this solution! Although I have no idea how practical it is...

But isn't the point of a wipe to reduce lag/clutter etc? By keeping player's plots, it would not have much of an impact on that, no?

To an extent, you see a fresh server destroys 90% of the lag and there are not that many active players thats over 80% of all tows being removed

Ohhh, so a wipe easily removes non active players bases to reduce lag.

 

Would another system be to wipe out inactive towns every month or so? Maybe make a roster/list of active players who return regularly? or is that not even an option?

Yeah Non active player bases are most likely not even loaded, hence they would not cause lag. The plugin you suggest is useful for other reasons however for maintaining space on the server.

We remove towns mostly when there is a town removal request on the forums, we only start removing towns ourselves when the server has been up for long, but its hard to find all inactive towns.

If you want to delete all the inactive towns its very easy. Just delete every town. That will delete inactive ones

Can I suggest something.

A lot of towny-like plugins have a daily rent-thing. As in, every day, a tax is taken from the mayor's balance to keep the town claimed. I think this would be a good thing to have to remove inactive bases. Especially by making them raidable. Not only will it make the server more open to the raiding mechanic, it will also help the new players find plots to claim, as the inactive ones would be unclaimed when the mayor runs out of money.

When will the wipe come then?

[cabalmaster]

Please wipe
I'm looking forward to build my base on a space station and then claim them all over again

[Swimsam1]

Have people make put on a list if their town is active then wipe all towns not on the list

[KingSnowy]

I am all for a server wipe. I had such a hard time finding a place to build near my friend cause too many people claimed towns but never logged. I say down with the map and up with the new one!!!!1

The lag isn’t even that bad... I’m playing on a Mac book pro and I’m having no problems. That’s saying something, it’s not the server’s fault you’re having lag if you’re playing with 100 mods on a chrome book. Get a better computer. I literally just put about a months work into this server, I don’t want my hard work to be destroyed. Just delete more claims of people who’ve stopped playing and wipe those areas.

The votes look overwhelmingly in favor of a wipe.  If this is going to happen (which I am sure it is), can we do it as soon as possible?  I would love to spend my one free weekend for the next month (this weekend) building back up.

[MachyCZ]

Wipe on the 1st of April would be nice

Honestly it would be nice to get the wipe before this weekend, as people may have the free time to set up a base etc. Starting on a Monday is gonna make it rough to put in much time until the next weekend.

This would be cool HOWEVER, think about the fact that we have creative bases that cannot be raided.
