NEW SERVER UPDATES: Rules, warps, world borders, and more!
To begin with,
ALL new players joining the server and all
EXISTING members (that have not logged in since these changes have been made) will be shown the rules in a new way. Instead of the old way that we are all used to, players will enter the world as a
[Starter] rank with limited perms in a room with signs that briefly explain the server's General Rules. From there, players will click a sign to accept the rules and will be promoted to the
[Member] rank, and then they will be able to go out and play as normal. Players who do not accept the rules will be automatically teleported back to spawn every 5 minutes. We hope that, with this change, we attract more players to the server than the previous setup and, at the same time, make sure they accept the rules in some way.
This brings us to our next point: We have added GUI's for the
/warplist and
/minigames commands. Clicking the icons on the GUI will warp you to another location on the map depending on which icon you choose. The icons will also list the quick commands in case you would rather type the command instead of using the GUI. The Horizon world warps have been reconstructed and all world warps will now contain holograms explaining the rules specific to that world. Showing players only the rules that apply to them based on which world they teleport to will help minimize the amount of rules shown upon joining.
And for our last and final point: As some of you may have noticed, our map has been explored inside and out for a while. We have decided to give you more room to roam and explore or build by expanding the world border once again. This time it has been expanded by another 10k blocks. We also remind you that Horizon Nether, Horizon End, and Alpha have been reset earlier this month, with Alpha having its border reduced slightly to save server memory for other features!
