Fellow veterans of ChaoticUnited,

It is with deep regret that I must finally come to the painful announcement of what is happening with Minecraft. For those of you who are not aware of the situation yet: the hosting company that we were with went rogue, and continued taking payments but did not renew the contract. This meant that without prior notice we had our dedicated server terminated and lost all data on it. Luckily for World of Warcraft and Runescape, there were valid backups to be restored from. Unluckily for Minecraft, the only recent backup that was feasible to use failed to restore from due to data corruption from the transfer process.

This means that we have been forced to start fresh in 1.2.5. We recovered what data we could, such as authentication details, encrypted personal information and McMMO data. These have been restored and you will find that they continue to function as they previously did before the downtime.

However, we lost too much data to restore the map feasible. This means that the map has been reset and the economy has been reset.

Do not despair for we have learnt from this experience and are prepared to battle the forces of the unknown with the power of contingency planning! We have implemented several new plugins, and have written many more changes to the software so that this will not happen again. Furthermore we have implemented new functionality that will improve your gameplay experience.

Everyone is entitled to 1 free zone protection (aprox. 40x40 blocks maximum). This means that you will have a zone that cannot be touched by anyone other than yourself. Furthermore we have implemented many anti-griefing tools and anti-exploit automated features that will heighten the enjoyment that players will have competing within this entrepreneurial server.

When you now do the "/done" command, you will be teleported to a random point within the entire map. This will also be automatically done when you die. This will allow you to explore the server and quickly travel to unpopulated areas so that you can build in the protection of your solitude. We are now also allowing two accounts per IP so that friends and family can play together on our wonderful server (this does not allow two accounts per 1 person).

And thus we bring you, the regenerated and better than ever, ChaoticUnited Minecraft server.

Thank you for being a part of this network,

Looks like the team has taken a big one on the chin, come out smiling and offered the perpetrator  a haughty grin. Good job chaps! Next time, make sure you can give them an even bigger punch for all us members yeah?

 

Long live Chaotic!

I can. Given I realised I've been lied to for something rather major in my life for over 10 years of my life, I can entirely believe and almost expect people to be money sucking scumbags, especially during these economic times.

[Guest Kyosoul®]

I know that some of people will be sad because of the map reset but you have to admit that the staff working hard to keep the game running Fresh start! 
Thank you to all the ChaoticUnited Staff

I don't like the map reset though, and the economy reset.

[Guest jlrulz]

You know what? This is big, it's huge. Map reset should be exciting . UR AWESOME STONE

[Guest Flamer1959]

NO big deal my friends. 
I WILL RISE TO GLORY!
AND BE A RAGE CAPS MASTER LIKE AVERY!
The server keeps lagging though :/
Me, my cousin and my brother have the same Ip adress.
If we all play at the same time then one of us will be kicked out right?

[Guest YouAteMyWaffles]

Guys you should be happy we are here without the staff, this server would not be here:)

If you are all connected to the same network connection, only two of you can register.

 

The server will lag quite badly for the first day while all the new map is indexed into a cache. You will slowly see the server start to speed up the longer we wait. 

[Guest ๖ۣۜKurosaki]

Map Reset? Challange accepted!

 

And nice that MCMMO is back, thx

[Guest jlrulz]

stone it might be best for the staff to register the world before all the members come.

I pre-generated the world but only players manually traversing each chunk causes the server to index it and insert it into the cache. 

[Guest ntx2]

GJ harry for getting this awesome project back on the road.
New plugins are awesome.
Map reset = land of opportunities.

 

Enjoy, guys.

[Guest Kaddah]
