New Week so, you know what that means! New Player of the week! This week's special player is none other than Canadrelis. Canadrelis is an expert builder, suggestion giver, and master Server Crasher! Without you we wouldn't know what the Server's limits were. Wiith you here we get to make sure Paul actually has something to do. Everyone lets congratulate Cana on being this Week's Player of the Week!

Ytak has been with us since the very first version of the world, sticking through every reset and update. He’s built some truly impressive colonies, always ready to answer questions, help others, and keep the community thriving. A cornerstone of our world, and well-deserving of the spotlight this week.

This week we are featuring Sakura from the old world! This awesome looking colony was owned by Ytak. Using the pagoda colony style.

If it's just when using optifine then there is nothing wrong with the server. At that point its a client side issue

After my ocean village just, well drowned I started work on Torislan on the mooshroom continent to the north! We have been making extremely good progress and now we are currently constructing our Tier 3 town hall.

MWAHAHAHAHAHA

Heralds II has been added along with Numismatics.

Ad Astra, Mystical Agriculture and Mob Lootbags are being added as of June 21st.

update - only occurs when using optifine when using vanilla install no issues

A Mayor’s Regret. A Colony’s Funeral. A Very Cool Portal. Things were looking up in Kalismor. Under the ever-busy eye of Mayor Paul, the colony had flourished on the lava-ridden wilds of the Forge World. Homes were built. Farms planted. Guards trained (sort of). People were happy-ish. But something was missing. So Paul, in all his restless brilliance, decided to build a Stargate. Or at least, something that looked like one. Using blackstone, obsidian, and a stubborn refusal to read the safety manual, he constructed a massive Nether portal — majestic, sleek, and stupidly ominous. And then he lit it. The portal flared to life, glowing with that signature ripple of interdimensional "do not touch" energy. Naturally, Paul touched it. He went through. What he found on the other side was… not peaceful. Not even mildly annoyed. A horde of Piglins, cranky from the heat and apparently territorial as hell, spotted him immediately. Paul turned around to leave. The Piglins, however, had other plans. They followed. Straight through the portal. Right into Kalismor. Paul was knocked out cold — possibly by a gold axe, possibly by pure regret. While he was unconscious, the Piglins rampaged. Kalismor's village guards tried to defend the colony, bless their underpaid hearts. But leather armor and "training" that consisted of hitting scarecrows didn’t hold up long. Over two-thirds of the population died. The farms burned. The blacksmith exploded. The stargate still looked awesome, but it now radiated the scent of bacon and death. When Paul awoke in the wreckage, there was silence. Just ash, broken structures, and a single sign someone hung next to the portal: “Nice job, on the Stargate.” But this is Kalismor. Paul has begun rebuilding. Stronger walls. Better guards. No more “decorative” death portals (for now). The gate remains sealed — though still beautiful — and the town square now bears a plaque: Kalismor will rise again. But Paul isn’t allowed near obsidian without supervision.

🧾 SECTION 1: TERMS OF SERVICE (ToS)Your ToS is your legal fortress. It's what users agree to when they sign up, and it better be clear, enforceable, and not just something you stole from a 2012 Minecraft server. ✅ Scope of ServicesWhat to include: Description of what you offer (VPS, shared hosting, domains, email) Limitations (e.g., best-effort uptime, not responsible for external outages) Why it matters: This limits your liability when Karen's Etsy site crashes because her cat stepped on the power button. Clarity up front prevents support headaches and angry PayPal disputes. ✅ Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)What to include: Bans on spam, DDoS, phishing, malware, and illegal content Clear consequences for violating terms (warnings, suspension, termination) Why it matters: You’re legally responsible for what’s hosted on your hardware. A strong AUP protects your IP ranges, your upstream provider relationship, and keeps you off abuse blacklists. ✅ Billing & Refund PolicyWhat to include: Billing cycle, late fees, cancellation terms Clearly defined refund policies (full, partial, none) and eligibility Explain who handles payments (e.g., “via PayPal – we don’t store card data”) Why it matters: Your money flow depends on predictable billing. Without these details, disputes will eat your time, reputation, and profit. Ambiguous refund rules = automatic PayPal losses. ✅ Termination ClauseWhat to include: Under what conditions you can suspend or terminate service Whether content/data is deleted immediately or held for a period Grace period if they forgot to pay (highly recommended) Why it matters: Protects you if someone turns your server into a ransomware farm or just ghosts you on invoices. Also gives you a legal out when you need to drop someone without drama. ✅ ToS Changes ClauseWhat to include: Why it matters: Saying “we can change anything whenever we want” = legally worthless. Without notice, updated terms are unenforceable. Courts have yeeted entire ToSes for this. ALWAYS notify. ✅ Limitation of LiabilityWhat to include: “We are not liable for data loss, outages, or acts of God (like AWS melting down again)” “Max liability is limited to what you paid us in the last 30 days” Why it matters: Keeps you from being sued for someone else’s mistakes, or their unrealistic expectations (like 100% uptime on a $3.50 plan). ✅ Indemnification ClauseWhat to include: “If your use of our service causes us to get sued, fined, or investigated, you’re responsible for covering our losses” Why it matters: It’s your legal parachute. Without this, someone can run a scam site through you and YOU get left holding the legal bag. ✅ Governing Law and Dispute ResolutionWhat to include: The legal jurisdiction (e.g., California law applies) A clear process (e.g., try to resolve things by email first, then small claims court) Why it matters: If someone sues you from another state or country, this clause decides where and how the battle happens. Saves you from chasing them across the globe. 🔐 SECTION 2: PRIVACY POLICYThis is not optional. If you collect any personal data—including email, IP, or payment info—you’re bound by multiple laws, even if you’re a one-person hosting outfit. ✅ Who You AreWhat to include: Legal name, business name, address (or PO Box if you value your sanity), and contact email Why it matters: Transparency is required under GDPR and CCPA. Anonymous policies = noncompliance = fines. ✅ What You CollectWhat to include: Name, email, IPs, server logs, support messages, cookies, payment metadata Why it matters: People deserve to know what you’re collecting—and laws like GDPR say you must disclose it. Vague language like “we collect some info” is a fast track to penalties. ✅ Why You Collect ItWhat to include: “To provide our services,” “to process payments,” “for security and analytics” Why it matters: This ties to the legal basis of processing. If you can’t justify why you're storing something, you shouldn’t have it. End of story. ✅ Legal Basis (GDPR Article 6)What to include: List which of these apply: Consent: For newsletters or cookies Contract: Hosting services Legal Obligation: Tax records, fraud detection Legitimate Interests: Debugging, metrics Why it matters: If you don’t declare a legal basis, you can’t legally process the data. EU auditors won’t find this funny. ✅ User RightsWhat to include: How users can request access, edits, or deletion of their data How to file a complaint How to opt out of marketing Why it matters: Both GDPR and CCPA require this. If you ignore a deletion request, congrats—you’re now noncompliant and potentially open to lawsuits or audits. ✅ Data Retention PolicyWhat to include: “Logs are kept for X days,” “account info is deleted 30 days after cancellation” Why it matters: Helps you manage risk, comply with data minimization laws, and gives customers peace of mind. Holding data “forever” is not legally okay. ✅ Cookie DisclosureWhat to include: What cookies are used (session, auth, analytics) Whether they’re essential or optional Link to opt-out or control panel Why it matters: You need a cookie banner (especially in the EU). Ignoring this is one of the most common GDPR fines, and cookie compliance tools are now expected. ✅ CCPA-Specific StuffWhat to include: “We do not sell your data” (unless you do, in which case… don’t) “Do Not Sell My Info” link Access and deletion instructions Why it matters: The CCPA is like GDPR-lite but still very real. Even if you're not based in California, if you serve Californians, you’re expected to comply. 🔁 SECTION 3: Updating Policies✅ ToS UpdatesAlways show the effective date Send notifications via email, dashboard, or both Give at least 14 days' notice for any material changes Why it matters: Not notifying users makes your changes unenforceable. They could literally sue you under the old terms. ✅ Privacy Policy UpdatesKeep a “last updated” timestamp Notify users if the way you collect or process data changes Optional: changelog for transparency Why it matters: Transparency is legally required. You can’t suddenly decide to use all your logs for ad targeting and hope no one notices. 🧰 SECTION 4: Free Tools & Legal HelpersUse these tools to help you build or audit your documents: 🧾 https://termly.io/ 🧾 https://www.iubenda.com/ 🧾 https://www.privacypolicies.com/ 📚 https://gdpr.eu/ 📚 https://cppa.ca.gov/ 🧠 Final Tips (a.k.a. Don’t Be That Guy)Don’t use ChatGPT or Notepad for your only copy. Version and archive it. Link your ToS and Privacy Policy from every sign-up or payment screen. Don’t screw around with legal language unless you understand it. What sounds “powerful” might be legally useless (or even illegal). Never say “we own your content” unless you’re trying to get flamed in the reviews section of LowEndTalk.

Built an entire new casino area so that problem is solved.

We will be trying a reboot today so hopefully this will stick.

Added permissions to the towny system to allow for resources to be gathered.
