(obligatory sorry for being a dick, i don’t hate you i promise. a guy just gotta rant and if you don’t agree w me, that’s okay)
why. bother. making. these. threads. when. you. don’t. know. how. the. server. is. run.
you don’t know how the server is operating, like, at all. none of us do. if you think this stuff is easy, go ahead and make a server with 600-900 active players and go manage that on your own. go manage those blacklist, and ban appeals. go look at the hundred of garbage staff applications and appeals. it’s tiring seeing people make these threads with little to no understanding of how a server of this size works.
i’m not at all saying i am the one who knows all because i am in the same boat you are.
however, i’ve read up enough on what kind of suggestions are actually useful.
they will consider and accept suggestions that are reasonable, and expand on the game modes they already have. to everyone complaining about ranks being so damn expensive;
don’t. buy. them. then. no one said you can’t play survival if you’re a non, or you can’t kill people if you’re a non in kit pvp. those ranks have always been
optional. people pay to get an advantage. if you want the same advantage pay for it, if not, i don’t see why the challenge of starting with less isn’t just as fun, and satisfying when you DO manage to equal an overlord.
instead of complaining about the same thing people have been complaining about for literal months now, why not use that fire and fury to come up with more creative ways to improve
gameplay. things that will increase the integral playtime of a game mode.
everyone is leaving as staff are inactive
first of all, that’s not even why people are leaving lol. and second, just because you don’t
see a staff member online, doesn’t mean they aren’t there doing their job. /vanish.
appeals take forever to process and staff season is a pain in the ass as you are expected to type an entire essay to get in. my application had multiple paragraphs and i had it denied for the vague reason of "lack of detail".
you had this in another thread and i addresses it there (and here-ish)
prices are outrageous, you're telling me overlord is $300? a summer crate key is 6 goddamn dollars. we need a discount or something, the 20% thing is obviously just a marketing strategy.
already talked about this... but YES. IT IS A MARKETING TACTIC. ITS LITERALLY DISCOUNT PRICING STRATEGIES TO CONVINCE YOU TO BUY IT WHILE ITS ON “DISCOUNT”. they do this because.... wait for this........ Invaded is a b u i s n e s s. yes that’s right! they are here to make money!!! you really think that they dump every dollar they make towards the server? a business operates for profit.
A gigantic discount web site-wide, 40-60% off everything.
you don’t know the overhead costs to run invaded. donations through ranks is likely one of, if not
the main source of income for invaded. so let say they do this, and now all of a sudden, they don’t have enough money to pay for the operation of the server networks. the server goes down and you can’t play. but don’t worry! at least you have your rank! too bad you can’t use it. my point is a business has to carefully calculate pricing for products/services they offer to turn a profit, so they can keep the server running, as well as grabbing those fatty racks
Staff season should open again and have the mods not grade you like an honors English teacher.
again, you complained about this in another thread and you got shot down by literally everyone (including a mod). i’ll link the thread if anyone is curious.
Skeppy should occasionally get on his own server to hang out with his members.
...
the fact that this isn’t your worst idea in this thread says a lot. still, the guy could be doing an infinite number of things that nobody is aware of. no human “owes” you their time. remember that.
I had an idea that will probably work, Mineplex had a mass-unban of all cheaters back in News Years 2018 just to get the server back on its feet, although Mineplex has died, this may work. Most people leave and convince others to leave after being banned/blacklisted for stupid reasons. The server is due for a mass-unban/pardon.
ah, yes! lets unban all the doxxers, people who threatened others lives, and pedos because mineplex did it! what? literally makes no sense.
Next up, the Discord is dead. It literally is just full of people using bot commands or some skeppy fan saying "hi skeppy" or something.
you want the discord to be active? make it active. most things in this server take two, the managers and the players. with no managers, this server would be chaos and likely destroyed. with no players, the management have nothing to do and will pump money into an ghost town. point is discord activity relies on the people talking... so talk. also this is literally a server owned, and advertised by a large youtuber. you can’t complain that his fans are coming to
populate the network. like what do you expect? if you don’t like it, here’s two ways to deal with it: ignore them, or leave. unfortunately you can not control the actions of others you can only control yourself
We also have 10-12-year-olds dressed up as Skeppy with the stupid name of "SkeppysMuffin" (example, i know there's SkeppyThemuffin and there's nothing against him except the fact that he spams crap), that ruins the experience.
see previous point
The server needs a simple auto-mod feature that will automatically mute you after spamming the same thing within a long interval. Hypixel doesn't allow you to repeat the same thing twice, and that should exist here.
not only is there already slow chat AND moderators AND a chat filter, this isn’t hypixel.
KitPvP has terrible kits and should have a kit you can only use once every three days called "Kit premium" and it should include Prot 2 and an S2 and whatnot. The game basically forces you to buy a rank to be equal to people who have ranks.
i can agree that it’s so frustrating that others have this advantage, but, speaking for myself, i have been wanting to get into kit for the challenge and the grind. it would be hella satisfying to work your way up to the point when you can beat an overlord in a 1v1. bit if you don’t like it, make suggestions that haven’t been made 1000 times before
We also have lots of toxicity, the term "gg ez" is banned in multiple servers and games. Such as Overwatch, who makes you say something like "I am a big baby" when you say the term 'gg ez'.
it’s literally a kit pvp server on minecraft. one of if not the most toxic game modes on one of if not the toxic games. theres going to be some toxicity
Skyblock is irrelevant at this point and has little players, it should get some love. Look at Hypixel Skyblock, it has 50000 consecutive players due to the fact that it's so advanced.
literally TODAY the day i wrote this sky block had more players than kit.
The forums receive no updates, the "suggestions" tab was supposed to be due back in NOVEMBER 2019. We need change the happen, and fast. This is obviously not how Invadedlands will thrive, and I am simply trying to help.
i don’t know why it never came back but what’s honestly the point of having a suggestions tab when threads like these pop up so often
The admins rarely ever get on, neither do the managers. There has been multiple scandals with the moderators because of how they were fired and publicity really doesn't makes things better.
first off, /vanish we already went through this. second off, what does any staff situation have anything to do with the enjoyment of the games on the server? if you’re telling me that a staffs demotion or promotion has got you so shook that you can’t build a house on survival... then you got issue fam.
In the end, Invadedlands is dying. I have nothing against the staff team nor Skeppy, but this simply isn't how you run a server. I am trying to help you in an administrative, unbiased way. Take some things I have said into account.
no it’s not, you clearly do, you don’t know how the server is run and none of us do either, and nothing you’ve said hasn’t been said a thousand times before bye
TL:dR
stop shitting on management when no one has a clue on how the server is run. and if you’re going to make suggestions, make some that haven’t been puked out a million times
