What do you think each SMP is best for?

Discussion in 'Community Discussion' started by We3_MPO, May 11, 2018.

  1. The list is incomplete for me, however, as I don't have surefire opinions for all SMPs:
    • SMP1: Very old SMP, so it's quite possible that some stuff (both in town and in the frontier/wilderness) has been sitting there for what will be 7 years in a few months. Good if you're looking for some history! Also, Eviltoade (a Senior Staff) is from SMP1.
    • SMP2: Again, very old, but not quite as old as SMP1. Also, both admins (Aikar and Krysyy) and 4 Senior Staff are from SMP2. ShelLuser, the Member of the Month in April 2018, also lives there, and it is the home of GRIP (formerly on SMP5).
    • SMP3: -
    • SMP4: -
    • SMP5: fBuilderS, a staff member who was once part of GRIP (but isn't anymore), lives there. GRIP itself used to be on SMP5, but got moved to SMP2.
    • SMP6: Being in the frontier/wilderness, due to it containing features such as:
      • SMP6 Public Works
      • Minecraft Paradise Outpost
      • Numerous smaller and medium (and surely other big) outposts too
    • SMP7: As of May 2018, it has been what Sydney_43 called the "most popular SMP recently".
    • SMP8: Good malls such as +bulk, it's EMC's hipster/weird/different SMP (WARNING: Not for sensitive people), staff and Miner Mania are common there, also has a large heads shop ran by FadedMartian, also home of the PWU (Public Wild Utilities)
    • SMP9: -
    • Utopia: Being a gold or diamond supporter (duh), going to a Harvest Day event
    • Games: Events and games (duh)
    • Stage: Private SMP where staff members and the Build Team do a lot of testing
    So, what do you think?
  2. Both admins and at least 4 SS are from SMP2 :cool:

  3. Added to OP. I also added Eviltoade being from SMP1, because he's a Senior Staff and I remembered that.
  4. I think you are forgetting my +head shop on 8, friend😶

  8. First I like to thank you for mentioning me with regards to SMP2. I started playing there, I saw through a lot of nasty stuff and I never gave up on "my" server. I love SMP2 and its community just as much as I love the rest. The only reason I love SMP2 a little more is because I tend to spend more time there :) So yeah, seeing me mentioned next to SMP2 really meant something to me, thanks again for that!

    For obvious reasons I won't comment on SMP2 myself :)

    SMP3 => Very tight and warm community. Home of EvilBlo who honestly isn't that evil (pls, no kill me! :eek:) :D and playing there can be tons of fun IF you open yourself up to it. Honestly: I don't go onto SMP3 very often (I usually stay on SMP2) but SMP3 never disappointed me.

    SMP4 => There must be a reason AyanamiKun keeps playing there and someday I will find out :D

    Nice place, good shops and dedicated players. Also home of a player I actually admire: SkareCBoi. He's one of the richest players on the Empire (as far as I know) so basically one could assume he doesn't really have much more drive to play and yet he still does. And I respect and admire that. He also made sure that other players can benefit from his res as well (he once showed Aya & me around).

    SMP4 is also home of the outpost I first visited and the one which is still in my signature. Despite that it's a bit of a private thingie (I'm just a member, but enthusiast enough to.. well.. mention) :)

    SMP5 used to be home of GRIP. The only reason I moved is because it was more convenient for me to have the res on SMP2. It's also home of fBuilderS who I consider a friend and who has also been doing a lot of the community, right now he's a staff prospect or maybe has graduated (honestly don't know at time of writing). I always had a soft spot for SMP5 to be honest.

    SMP8 is also home of PWU; the Public Wild Utilities. If you need a farm and you can find it there. From gold to bones to sushi :) A friend of mine takes great pride in being an official helper for that.

    SMP9 is awesome and very special to me personally for its Frontier seed. I don't know what it is but ever since I set foot into the SMP9 frontier I was hooked. At first Aya & me only occupied a small island (which is still available, we're actually considering to somehow "revive" it) but "soon" (1 - 2 years later) I officially established my outpost there, soon followed by Aya.

    I'm usually in the Frontier when I am on SMP9 but... I love that place. The Frontier, as said, has always been special to me.

    And that's my take!

  9. SMP2 is nice if you want help for something. Between GRIP, OIC (aka my company), SSRC, and a lot of generally helpful members, you're never short of a helping hand anywhere on the server, if you so need one.

    It's also home to a fair amount of everything- decent amount of shops, plenty of monuments and skyscrapers, public utilities are pretty okay, and there's a decent amount of frontier activity.

    oh yeah by the way UNDERHELM

  10. Giving out my secret I see :p
    But yes, you are absolutely right on the tight and warm community part. Also, it might not seem so, on the first sight, as more often than not, we would rather watch, to see what someone is made of :D
    Smp3 has some very efficient public farms in frontier, built by EyeCyeBall and bryanm61, just not being advertised ;) As well as some very great private outposts, one of them being StoneBenderr's "Emerald Bay", astoundingly beautiful place.

  11. What's good about smp5?
    Firstly we have some amazing frontier facilities such as MissFable's gold farm and also NZScruffy's iron farm and more which are all maintained by various members of our community brilliantly. We also have some very awesome people such as carolmoss, cTJx and many more which all make smp5 a very warming place

    For smp1, we can't overlook weeh who not only has a fantastic shop but also a wonderful person just to be around :)

  13. I have so many reasons why smp2 is great because not only are the wonderful Krysyy and Ignoramoose are from there but as well as some amazing others as well like Alexc__, Shelluser, Me (of course ;)), and that's just the few off the tip of the ice berg because smp2 is filled with wonderful people that I have lost count :p

  14. Wow.... I can't believe the LLO isnt mentioned for SMP7.

  15. No, SMP8 is not for the weak of heart. :p In all seriousness, I never spent much time elsewhere. But SMP8 I still thought was unique due to the off-the-wall chat and recognizable faces. A lot of people on SMP8 have been there for a very long time.. at least that was the way it was when I was able to get in-game. Not that I think that much could have changed in my absence as it hasn't been that long, but still.

    SMP3: A lot of outposts reside there. (Optional) MoreMoople is from there.

    SMP9: MoeMacZap, enough said.

  19. Divorce Cactus? Is that a cactus you give to the divorcee, or do you just throw your ex into a specially-designated cactus?
    And what happens if you marry the cactus?

    I wonder if it's time for me to start worrying about 8 again...
