I like this new trailer idea. It was explained previously in this thread that they plan on advertising, but not until the server is in a presentable state. This is presumably after the upcoming updates announced by affixes.
Another good idea, I think this is typically done for resets, and I have a good feeling it will happen again.
Another really good idea, surprised I haven't seen this suggested before! I think a community vote should certainly be involved for this though.
I've given my thoughts on a mute reset in the past, and I think it is far too soon. Think about it like this:
In most cases, you'd have to get muted 5-10 times in order to be perm muted. After that you get another chance at appealing your mute. Thats anywhere from 6-11 mutes you'd have to get to be perm muted in the span of 10 months. 4-5+ of those months you'd likely have to spend muted! I think anyone who is perm muted right now should serve their mute longer so players won't have to rely on these resets frequently. This was touched on by kvids in this thread. I would not be opposed to a mute reset in the future, but now I personally believe is too soon.
Payouts were removed because it violates the EULA. They were removed in order to get the server unblacklisted.
This happened for a while, I do hope to see it return!
Good idea! Minecraft twitter is very popular at the moment.
There is much more that goes into changed than you might think. The management is clearly trying their absolute best right now, this statement is just disrespectful. I suggest reading the recent thread by affixes and the replied he and others have made.
nice start, but here's the biggest flaw for me
Money. Probably not a big issue but enough to talk about anyway. You probably saw Skeppy's net worth in the millions and probably think he has lots of expendable money. net worth does not equal expendable money. You're suggesting many cost related ideas that probably aren't sustainable, from the sale of 50 - 80% off, the weekly payouts, and the cost for the trailer. Alone, none of these are bad, but since the server is dying, that means less income which = less profit to put into the server. Before, all of this was manageable because of the consistent 1000 players coming in from COVID, but now? I'm not sure what Skeppy can spend, and if he can spend this much still, then great! But you should always consider the cost in a place where people are actually paid (Devs, Managers).

Lol, if you're calling me a newgen you're brainless myro. stick to duping
Oh mb, forgot about how buycraft isn't actually irl money, been in econ too much. Also, not nice
Not going to be the case (provided the discussion remains civil and there’s no other reason for the thread to be closed); one of the main things that we are aiming to improve is communication with you guys and while we naturally won’t able to respond to every thread of this nature, I am happy to provide my input to the points you’ve made here.
Advertising is constantly being discussed, especially as we gear up towards major changes (both for the players and behind the scenes) over the coming months. Ultimately anything that goes through Skeppy is entirely up to him, however we are in constant discussion with him and the rest of the management team about how we go about getting the server advertised on a larger scale.
I completely understand the frustration regarding a lack of representation for certain players who create regular content on the network, and I appreciate you bringing it to our attention because this is definitely something that can be looked into so that we can determine the best way to move forward with this idea.
As I personally do not deal with this aspect of the network, I won’t comment on this too much publicly but it will be noted as a topic of discussion when we have meetings.
This is definitely something that we are aiming to do more of moving forward. I would be interested to hear some of your ideas for what type of map changes you would like to see. The main limitation I see at the moment is that there are times when the workload on our builders from other projects is extremely high and they won’t always be able to create completely new maps. We’ve done some experimenting with rotating in older maps when that is the case - would that be something you’d like to see on a more regular basis?
Not going to get into too much detail for the reasons I addressed here:
Unfortunately, this is no longer in our hands. Payouts were not removed because log checks couldn’t be performed or boosting couldn’t be monitored; that was all being done regularly and did not pose an issue. The network was blacklisted for its failure to comply with the EULA, and one of the terms needed to comply was the removal of payouts for leaderboards across all servers on the network. Payouts will not be reintroduced for this reason.
Definitely something that is being considered. Keep your eyes peeled for more information about this soon.
We have been in discussion about expanding the server’s social media presence and while that may not necessarily come in the form of giveaways, it is definitely something that we aim to improve going forward.
See my response to #5.
I can assure you we are listening more so than ever before. We understand the frustration of the community trying to make their voice be heard and not receiving much, if anything, in return. One of our top priorities is changing the public perception that management “doesn’t care” about the community and its ideas. Of course, not every idea/suggestion is feasible and some simply would not be in the best interest of the network to pursue, but we do want to make sure we are catering towards the players that make up the InvadedLands community.
I won‘t elaborate too much on #11 since, again, that is ultimately not my final decision to make.
This thread is not being locked or removed as you may have anticipated; I appreciate the effort that went into it and I do hope that there feeling is mutual with regards to my response. We do plan on communicating with you guys much more frequently about what we are up to and addressing questions & concerns, because ultimately that is what you all deserve.
Best,
kvids
cool
Really well said
couldn't have said it better kvids!
agreed w everything exceptwelcome to how to revive your dead server from an A tier kitpvp player. (Converging)
These are ALOT of randomly organized ideas and even though I hate this community for the most part now I still enjoy randomly logging on alts and putting people in a locker and it's hard to do that when there is literally 12 people online kitpvp. Staff don't delete this, and management + Skeppy actually do something with your server.
1. GET A TRAILER MADE
- get skeppy to literally put a 30s-1m trailer made about invadedlands, skeppy averages around 1,000,000 views per video. If even .1% of the players who viewed logged on the server because of the trailer that's 1,000 players right there and there's quite honestly 0 reason not to especially because he is the OWNER.
- make a special tag and give it to anyone who uploads the trailer aswell to get it circulating. It's FREE advertisement for you so once again theres quite honestly 0 reason not to.
- You can buy a good quality trailer for 50-150$ which in comparison, to the amount of money the owner has and how much money this server alone has probably made is NOTHING
2. Get actual youtubers / content creators
- I'm sick and tired of seeing all these random ass mf's logon that have youtube rank but don't have a SINGLE video uploaded on the server, Get actual fucking youtubers that upload good quality videos on the server and give them youtube role or atleast something for promoting the server while the management team + owner are not themselves, Examples: Deproved, wigchig, Voltwave, D9N, Krypto, Huso, Dygie, Xoads, Coke, togglings, trailings. And so many more players that have uploaded actual good quality content on this dying server.
3. Do a 50-80% off comeback sale
- this is self explanatory in itself a big sale along with reasons above and reasons you will read below and it is impossible that the server will not gain alot of players once again.
4. Change the map once every 2-3 months.
- This is mainly for kitpvp because im not entirely sure how survival + skyblock work. But for kitpvp since a full item reset lasts for 6 months, Throughout that process change the map a few times to give players a breath of fresh air to keep the server interesting and competitive.
5. Mute reset
- self explanatory
6. Add payouts back to kitpvp.
- this was one of the main things that keeps kitpvp competitive and gives players a reward for playing so much, i dont care if its more work for staff you doing work for the server is what you signed up for so dont complain. Why this continues to get removed is beyond me? It isnt hard to log check someone at the end of a season ? do your job
7. once a week staff hosted events for 50-100$ buycraft
- self explanatory, only senior mod+ and a different game every week
8. host a giveaway on twitter / other social platforms for top rank
- self explanatory. It will bring attention to server and costs management 0$
9. unban all (not unblacklist)
- unban all, i dont care if this will cause controversy lol, Your server is dead and an unban all would bring back many players to it
10. Listen to your community
- Like most threads relating to this, this shit will probably get locked/deleted or something by higher ups who constantly say they care about the community and want to improve it but refuse to take easy options that are standing right infront of them.
11. @Skeppy Upload a fking trolling video or something like you used to.
- Self explanatory, when he was uploading invaded was alive and fun. but now its full of RP hackers, people who think they are known, and braindeads who ruin the community.
I wrote this all in like 10m because i thought i'd try to help out a dying community that I used to be apart of. @TehNeon @DarkKnights22 @Zackyyy @affixes @kvids @Hayech @LukeLovesCandy @Lionnco @Lumboc @Skeppy , Hopefully one of you try to do something because with the amount of advertising power you have with skeppys channel alone. It is embarrassing that this server struggles to hit 100 players.
6. - its against the EULA of mojang, they will get blacklisted again
4. - if its possible then do it
everything else +1
But are y'all actually going to talk about this stuff?
Cause, if i can talk for more players.. we have seen yall type this responds more times by other forumposts.
But we didn't really see a good '' update '' from those ideas in new seasons.
So are u just saying that you are gonna talk about this to death this post, or are u saying it cause you are actually going to adress it in meetings?
this is actually a good way to make the server not dead anymore.welcome to how to revive your dead server from an A tier kitpvp player. (Converging)

If you can't handle responses or counterarguments to your OP then it's best to rethink that. It's not kind to call people braindead or special needs.
Absolutely - Your concern is valid, but there would be no reason to go through and respond to these points and provide input on what will be considered and discussed amongst the team if there were no actual plans to do so; if that was the case, I could have easily just ignored this thread rather than take the time to contribute to the discussion.
Will certain changes & ideas take more time than others to come to fruition? Yes. This is simply due to the fact that there has just recently been a major change in management and certain ideas require more discussion and development behind the scenes and may take more time for you to actually see them implemented, but that does not mean that there is not loads of planning and talks going on amongst the management team. There will be a post within the next week that addresses this topic further, so I suggest you keep your eyes peeled for that.
damn you're stupid
Looking forward to the post kvids!
