Minecraft Survival Servers

The Forums section of the website has received some minor renovations. Mostly it's a case of musical chairs with regards to the sections. Given the layout of the new sections for Buying, Selling, and Business Listings, a few things were noticed/brought up that needed to be addressed.

The basics of the changes are outlined below. Red represents something removed/renamed. Green represents additions. White represents things that didn't change.

Auctions were moved to their own section because when implementing an Auction ban on someone that abused said auctions, we don't see it necessary to remove their access to the other types of economic exchange.

Please be patient as the staff work to update/move threads between sections.

Hey everyone.

Last night I developed a system so that any time a developer changes code, not only does it test that the code compiles, but it can test that the behavior of EMC does not break.

So for example, on our 1.8 update we had a bug that broke Persistent Meta Data and we lost some items stored in blocks....

This kind of system prevents that from happening as the test would fail.

So what I need from you:

Help list various 'details' about EMC that you can think of that if it stopped happening, we would consider a bug.

Then we can go through and write test cases against those.

This will help EMC avoid bugs, so any help is appreciated! Thanks

It's that time of year everyone! The hot chocolate is out, the lights are up, and it's time for a Holiday Contest! This year, the contest is Snow Globe Building!

Poll: How should the 'A' look?
As we get further into 2017, EMC is working to become fully EULA compliant. That being said, each step on the way requires some changes to some aspects of EMC that have been around for a LONG time and change is difficult for some.

The official Empire Minecraft logo must have a small alteration in order to remove the creeper face, which is technically a Minecraft asset, from it. It's important we know what players of the community want before finalizing everything. We use this logo in a LOT of places that will all be changing soon. Please note that the only differences between the pictures below have to do with the 'A' and that's all we are looking to change at this time. We look forward to seeing what everyone thinks. Poll closes February 1st.

Please review and vote in the poll. This is a public vote in order to prevent abuse by alts. You may choose more than one design if you like multiple.
