I don't need any extra money for this. I will setup a test server tomorrow on one of my dedicated machines (probably the second one with 24G of RAM).

I was thinking of setting up (if possible) 4 groups of users:
- Guests
- Members
- VIP
- Mods / OPs (admins)

Hmm... I wouldn't probably manage to setup a "/login wallbase_user wallbase_pass" command for Members because users use a special hashing function for passwords and it would probably hard to implement it for minecraft.

I'm quite new to this, but i really liked the old-fashioned survival mode. Awesome!

I can't wait to start this little project tomorrow. I'll probably need some help from ppl who actually played more than just few hours like me. ^^


Maybe also you should make a "Builders" group. Users in this group will have access to WorldEdit commands.

Once on a cracked server I built a maze which was 80x80 blocks...
...I flattened all the ground... Fight all the creepers at night worked on days and built all of it the LEGIT WAY.
After mods saw the maze, they called me an Ace Builder OMGOMGOMG That was awesome...
(Not that I want to be Builder for wallbase server just good memories Awesome! I wonder if I can find a screenshot)

I still support my idea that the server should be cracked. Depends on how many people Yotoon wants on it.
A whitelist would solve the problem of over-crowding the server, and a nifty script would prevent inventory theft.

Personally i would like to play on it but i wont buy the game (not quite cheap either) just to play on wallbase (i play for the community). If i do, i'd get buyer's regret after i get bored of the game and id regret buying it in the first place(happened before).

I still disagree. But I guess it's up to Yotoon. Talking about Yotoon, any updates?

Any reason why you disagree besides the "only people who bought the game have the right to play on servers" argument ?

FIrst of all, this will look like wallbase supports piracy and second I just think you should buy the game, it's not even that expensive.

Considering that a large quantity of wallpapers on this website are copyrighted yet nobody gives a damn to put them down, i dont see why a server where both bought players and non-bought players would support piracy.

I don't feel uploading wallpapers is piracy.

Considering you would usually have to pay for some series (the nsfw ones) it really is.

There's a distinct difference between user uploaded content that infringes on copyright, and intentional infringement by Wallbase/Yotoon. If a user uploads content that infringes on copyright, the holders can tell Wallbase to take it down (and possibly subpoena for the user's records), but Wallbase itself is protected under the Safe Harbor provisions (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here) of the DMCA. Basically since Wallbase allows user's to upload their own content, as long as Yotoon (or whoever is responsible for that kind of thing) complies with any takedown requests, Wallbase itself cannot be held responsible for any user who uploads infringing content.

If Wallbase is hosting a cracked server however, they're directly infringing, and therefore liable for whatever lawsuit Mojang (or some other company) may want to bring against them.

Now granted, depending on the server's physical location, these rules/laws may change, but most places have something similar to the Safe Harbor provisions regarding user uploaded content.

You are right, i never insinuated that Yotoon uploads the copyrighted content. If a user from here would have host the server, then it wouldn't have been "official" therefore not Wallbase's business.

Now, if we consider the technical details around what a "cracked server" means: As i am aware, Notch made the servers intentionally "pirate-friendly" (http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2012/01/12/minecraft-creator-notch-tells-players-to-pirate-his-game/) otherwise he wouldn't have made the variable "online-mode". Although this would be seen as a "LAN" feature it provides an alternative for the cracked clients.
