I also disagree with rob's fears. Setting up a nether railway, while intensive, is rewarding. Also more fun than warps and TPs.
Whatever we do, NOW is the time to do it. Summer is when server activity has ALWAYS increased, and will ALWAYS increase, with not as great but still AN increase at Christmas activity.
If its going to be done, ti needs to be done soon, and if it isn't done, then the server as it is is in a huge mess.
From now until the private pack releases, I am hosting a Hardcore Survival world around-the-clock on my server. Few things you should know:
1. The difficulty is hard and this is hardcore survival. Be aware that hardcore means that death results in a ban from the server.
2. This is NOT a PvP server. It is co-operative. PvP is disabled entirely.
3. A block of diamond currently equates to a single revive. I must be online to redeem a revive, as must the person who is being revived. Reviving someone involves me taking the server down temporarily, doing some trickery with the person who died, and then throwing it back up. The material required to revive someone will scale - if a block of diamond is no longer scarce, the requirements to revive someone will increase.
4. Don't be a dick - this covers everything I don't feel like writing out that should be common sense.
Server IP: 74.111.11.149:25565
Status of server: Me, klaz, maru, M, and davroe all are living in the village near spawn. We have some iron stuff (especially me, with full armor) and we're pooling resources. Klaz died, though, so that sucks. We have no diamond at the time of writing this.

UPDATE: chkflip joins the village. I'm living out of the Blacksmith, Maruchan and davroe are in the Church, Rob is in a Library, and Klaz is in the Butcher's shop. davroe got 12 diamonds since the last update, which he used to make a Diamond Pick and an Enchanting Table (since Rob & Klaz were already offline at that point waiting till morning had to happen anyway...) the farms I've kindof upgraded to be more efficient, I was barely done harvesting half of them when I had 2 stacks of Wheat after a VERY successful mining trip (which yielded 1.5 stacks of Iron - davroe and I are decked out now too)
dav's currently working on the Enchanting Library on top of the blacksmith (lol, not my idea but whatev) so I think we'll need to find some cows soon gents - if anybody wants to get on that...? EDIT: Sugar Cane is nearby across the river IIRC. I can just tweak one of the existing farms for Cane and that should be fine
a short P.S. for anybody wishing to join: COMMUNAL living means we're pooling EVERYTHING we find in a bunch of double chests on the second floor of the church. don't be a dick, be fair about what you take and if you die and lose shit...well you'll be banned already so it'll be your own damn fault 2x over
Oooookay, so I haven't read everything in great detail, but I'll say a few things anyway.
1. I will pretty much go where the community goes, restarts or not, vanilla or modded. Just not TerraFirmaCraft.
2. I am against a vanilla server restert FOR NOW. There are still rumblings of a Biomes Update in the future; one that will massively change world generation. I say we restart when, and only when, an update like that comes along.
3. WOOOOO TIERCE! This stuff is much better than Voltz.
4. Huh, hardcore co-op server? That's... different. Maybe I'll try it out later.
(Mostly) on hiatus until further notice. Planet MafiaScum 2 will be modded by Inspi and JDGA - go check it out!
It's fun. And yes Maestro I've got ten sugar growing out by the river because I just joined and have no buckets or urge to look in the chest for iron that may or may not be there. Y'all can move it when you feel the need obv obv.

Trying to run the modpack through MultiMC and Forge isn't downloading the files properly. Might just be a server problem on their end though - I'll try again in a bit.

So it looks like it's just one file that files.minecraftforge.net REALLY doesn't want to give me. Anyone got a copy of deobfuscation_data_1.5.1.zip? Ideally from the build we're using.

1- A MC modded server without IC2? You guys have balls. I highly approve. (I'm a bit sad about RP2, but I totally understand the reasons)
2- You guys should reset vanilla, and make the server always run the latest, bleeding-edgest snapshot, and no mods (not even bukkit). Wild wild west style. I volunteer to archive the old vanilla world.
Good luck, and I'll drop by sometimes if possible, cheers!
