Are we ever gonna do another world editor map, the guilds of runouw map was my favorite server. I know it takes a lot of effort to make a world editor map, but Ill help with the actual in mc work after its made in world edit. So pls make another world edit map.

I wish we could, because I'd love to, but I think that as pessimistic as this is going to sound, as most of us have been going into later high school years, university, and/or work, we've had a lot less free time on our hands (I'm writing this as at almost 10pm as I knowingly put off what's probably going to end up being an additional two or three hours of homework, for instance). In addition to the issue of time, we've tried to revive MC several times here in the past year or two, and it has been kind of invariably been dying out within a month or two of starting a new map, so I think that's probably a signal that a lot of us have simply lost interest in the game, and a lot of people are moving on to other games in the little free time they have. The new updates are cool, but it's still MC, and it seems like it's just getting a little old. To be honest, I mostly play the game because it's fun to hang out with you guys on the server, which can be accomplished just as easily using the forum chat. :p

If someone wants to take the initiative to start working on a new map (nin's 10/10 worldbuilding skills might come in handy if he has time/motivation), we might be able to get something going. But honestly it's hard to be able to expect much, and I personally don't feel very excited about putting a ton of effort into something that I know I'm going to end up hardly being able to experience for myself.

...Sorry, I don't mean to crush your spirits or anything, but I think I have a tendency to accidentally do that sometimes. Can someone else with a less depressing/cynical take on it maybe answer the question? 3:

EDIT: jk I lied there was apparently just a pretty decently long and apparently enthusiastic discussion between like 3 or 4 people on chat about MC and new stuff that's happening in updates, so I guess hop on and we can discuss

To expand on what OJ said above, vanilla Minecraft just isn't interesting to some of us anymore. I can speak from experience, the only Minecraft I play nowadays is either custom maps (CTMs mostly) or minigame servers with friends. Things MAY pick up a bit when 1.9 is officially released, but if it does I doubt it will last long.

Soo... Did our no rushing rule on the new server blow-up in our faces, since everyone's bored before we even get gliders.

I don't think all of us are necessarily bored, a lot of us are just lacking free time

We could always go super hardcore if we wanted.

And by that I mean higher water level, ores are rarer, and the landscape is much more hilly and natural.

Or lightly modded

Or heavily modded

[ShadeRaider]

I don't think my computer or internet could handle a heavily modded server, my computer probably could handle a few mods though.

This is what the seed I used looks like when it generates

Spoiler: show

Change "mainNoiseScaleX":1865,"mainNoiseScaleZ":2004 to higher numbers to make the islands larger. I like this worldgen tbh. It actually feels....natural? Now there are actual continents and oceans are oceans.
