What should I do with the server?
Close down the server. 0 (0%)
Keep things the way they are. When Finn's network trouble is fixed, and Ahren has his internet back it'll be used alot more. 3 (75%)
Turn it into a public server, and run it the same way. Only allow a few people. 0 (0%)
Make it a completely open Survival server. 1 (25%)
Total Votes: 4

According to the console, the server is almost never used. It's rather expensive to run something that no one uses :-/

So, here are some choices/options.

Well, I'll look at a way to delete your .dat file every time you log out. I'm sorry I wasn't able to find any other way to fix your troubles :-/

Exactly. Ahren can't due to lack of internet, Finn can't because of Java trouble, and the remaining few never stay on long because no one esle is on when they are.

The best thing to do in my opinion, is make the server public. Then it might actually get used.

Well....that's where there are two choices. Either;

A) Start a new map, that is a Survival no rule map.

B) Keep the existing map, and install a thousand mods to create an extremely complex economy causing enormous strain on the server and confusing almost (Only Alvey could understand the bureacracy) everybody.

Personally, I like the idea of starting a really unrestrictive server where anything goes. If people want to form towns etc they can build far away from the spawn point and protect their town from raides, thieves....

Yep. I've already made all the plans and arrangements for it (The server has to be upgraded to be capable...)
So unless there are any strong objections that's what I'll be doing after fencing.

My biggest concern with setting up a no rule (Other than no hacking/cheating) server is people hacking so they can fly/spawn items/duplicate items etc. If this doesn't work out, I can always revert the system back to what it was.
