This has been such an exciting past month!

We opened on July 11th, and honestly, I didn't know if our new server was going to work or not. I expected everything to break and a week later, give up on trying to run a server. But that didn't happen, and you guys seem to of love what we're doing.

  • Added merge mob in an attempt to save performance. Mobs are so laggy!
• Improved /shop...

Phew, it's been a while, hasn't it?

What's new?

Everything.

For the past 7 years, we've always been a mixture of survival and creative. You started out as a survival player, but if...
