I guess if we are stating who we are, I'm MarzSwankstir on Minecraft.

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 7:42 pm

Hello everyone, I found this thread and was wondering if I could join your server. My minecraft name is the same as my profile name if it is needed.

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:11 pm

Hi, Drareon, and welcome to the Forums! If you want, you can post in The Welcome Thread to introduce yourself to everyone.
The server ip is 176.9.41.207
I look forward to seeing you around!

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:17 pm

You sure can! There's no whitelist so just use the following address and you can hop right in!

Invisan is currently running the server so if you have any problems then either post them in here or feel free to PM him.

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:25 pm

Thanks, both of you. Anything I should know about the server other than the standard common courtesy/sense that should apply to everything?

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:28 pm

Well, on the server PvP is disabled, mobs do spawn (I dunno the difficulty off the top of my head), and people basically have just gone and built their houses where they feel like it.

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:31 pm

Alright, I think I will go ahead and log on.

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:32 pm

Cool, I'll get on as well. I can be your welcoming party

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:37 pm

I wish I could get on too. Oh well. Czukay will show you around.

Probably the main thing I can think of is try to replant trees if you log them and don't kill wild animals that are wandering around the houses because we're all still collecting them for our various farms.

It's a vanilla server too so if there's any mods that you're used to that are missing then that's why.

Have fun!

Oh yeah, and welcome to the forums! Like Czukay said, feel free to introduce yourself in the welcome thread and if you have any questions or issues while you're here then please don't hesitate to ask any of our friendly staff. You can tell us by our dark blue, green or red names and we're all here to help so feel free to poke us any time.

Just a note to everyone: When a thunder storm kicks up in the server, take cover immediately. I got struck by lightning twice in a row, and it proceeded to attempt to hit me the whole time it was raining

Were you wearing any pieces of iron, chain, or gold armor?

I've always found i'm fine as long as i unequipped my armor before going outside.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 12:17 am

There you go. Conclusive proof that lightning can strike the same place twice.

Also, with thunderstorms, they increase (evil) mob spawning tenfold so definitely take cover and sleep if you can.

Oooooh... that makes a lot of sense when you think about it.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 2:50 pm

Because almost everything in Minecraft can kill you? Its almost like Australia in that regard.

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 2:54 pm

well, they do both have massive venomous spiders...

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 3:04 pm

Which is why I would never move to Australia or to Minecraft!

Niftyness · Post by **Niftyness** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 3:28 pm

Hey, I'm gonna join this for the first time too--my MC username is TheNman1

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Thu Jul 30, 2015 5:43 pm

Welcome to the server, Nifty!

For those who don't know yet, we do have a Skype group for Minecraft. If you'd like to join then feel free to PM me or MrNeonShot. You can also add me on skype if you want by searching for [email protected] or Furr. Make sure if you add me on Skype you tell me what your forum username is so I know who you are.

Also, in case you're not aware we also have an official Houspets Skype group, the details of which can be found here. Feel free to PM myself, Sleet or Dissension if you're interested in that group.

Here and here, Kingfan.

CHAOKOCartoons · Post by **CHAOKOCartoons** » Fri Jul 31, 2015 5:17 pm

Oh yeah, forgot that I made those, which is weird considering I originally made the topic for the purpose of making those skins.

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Fri Jul 31, 2015 6:48 pm

I tamed three horses today, I will start breeding them. Does anyone want one? They are all black with various patterns.

Forgot to mention, I also have extra diamond horse armor and a saddle.

Edit: Up to 12+ horses, I won't breed them.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Sat Aug 01, 2015 12:28 am

Ooh, I'd love a horse!

Where did you end up making a house, Drareon?

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Sat Aug 01, 2015 1:49 am

12 horses from breeding or 12 horses from taming them?

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Sat Aug 01, 2015 9:59 am

11 horses from taming and 1 from breeding. I made my house behind Czukay's. It's the wall of lava. The horses are brown, gray, and black with most, if not all, patterns appearing once. No mules or donkeys yet.

Edit: To get a horse; open all the gates (horses are 2 blocks wide and won't naturally jump), mount a horse. Then you can either try and jump out, it might not work, or break the extra dirt block and replace it once you are out. Please, shut the gates and replace the block.

Drareon · Post by **Drareon** » Mon Aug 03, 2015 10:46 am

I found a zombie dungeon today. I connected it to the surface and built a small house around it. Feel free to grind exp there. It's behind my house, just inside the trees. The dungeon had another saddle in it, anyone who wants it can have it.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Sun Aug 30, 2015 11:13 am

Could you restart the server please, Invisan? It's been very laggy this weekend. I've been timed out about ten times and I know Iron Panda and Geckozy were having issues with lagging and timing out too.

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Sun Aug 30, 2015 11:15 am

Hello,

I have been wondering if it would be ok if I was to join at some point?

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Sun Aug 30, 2015 11:21 am

Absolutely! The server address is 176.9.41.207
There's no blacklist or whitelist so just type that in and you'll get straight in.
Be aware that creepers do cause block damage so try not to let them explode near anyone's house.

The spawn point is obvious. It's marked with cobblestone and you can't build inside there. Feel free to explore wherever you like and pick a place to build and mine though.
You're welcome to share supplies from the farms too. Just make sure you replant whatever you harvest.
We also have a skype group so we can see when we're on and what we're doing and so we can chat while playing. You're welcome to join that too if you want.

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Sun Aug 30, 2015 1:14 pm

Thank you!

Just a heads up, when I do come on, my username on minecraft isn't HoundInATree. It's Snip3rDuck, which was due to a miniture sniper model being on top of a rubber duck on my desk when I bought minecraft.

hope to see you soon.

Edit: I just ran straight into a creeper by that cobble wall

I'll try to fix the hole as best as I can.

Can't you change your user name now, if you wanted?

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Mon Aug 31, 2015 9:17 am

I could, but there is a problem with that for me. One server I frequently go on/went on (it's dying very slowly now) uses plugins which recognise the player's username. If I change my username I have to go through a lot of hassle sorting a lot of stuff out. Also, this is the only place I'm using HoundInATree as a username, not even my close friends know about this username/fursona. I'd like to keep the two apart for the time being so changing my username on MC isn't an option for a while.

I know that problem. It's the same on the server I play on. One of our programmers wrote a plugin that changes all protections, warps, etc. to the new username if needed.

Luck for me, I go as Render here and there.

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Mon Aug 31, 2015 3:46 pm

I made the mistake of deciding to follow the river up-stream to it's source... I eventually found a swamp and I've packed the adventure in there. Now I've got to spend the same amount of time trying to get back.

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Wed Sep 02, 2015 11:11 am

Invisan, I was visting your house and when I left I accidently set a creeper off went through the front doors. There's a fair bit of damage and the redstone needs to be re-wired. Sorry.

Dang, dude, you are really unlucky with creepers!
Don't worry, though. You'll get the hang of fighting them.

HoundInATree · Post by **HoundInATree** » Wed Sep 02, 2015 5:44 pm

Oh, I've got the hang of fighting them, it's the blowing up blocks I'm not used to. The server I used to play on had explosions turned off to prevent griefing.

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Thu Sep 03, 2015 2:16 am

Personally i can't get the hang of fighting any of the mobs. the server is less responsive than the one i'm used to, so the timing is different. It's one of the reasons i'm almost never on.

I like treasure hunting, but i can't do that when i die and loose all my gear every 2 min.

might be on this weekend though, i kinda want to see how the town is doing.

No Problem HIAT.

Btw Buster Responsetime might get better. I might get a Server which is based in the US soon.
