Hello everyone. Starting tonight, CU services will not be accessible for a while. The website and Minecraft server will be inaccessible to normal users. More details will be shared later, and right as I am writing this post a meeting between all of Chaotic United's staff has ended. The specifics of the meeting and the future of the server will be shared later. All I can tell you now is that CU is absolutely not shutting down by any means. Sorry about the vagueness of the announcement, but I dare not share any of the juicy details just yet

You must contribute to the topic!

Works for me. @_L_E_F_T_ You are now Platinum ingame!

If you provide some proof of the actual purchase (receipt or email) then you can be granted your rank back.

Googling takes about a minute and can solve any question ever.

I didn't even mention Bandicam in that post, but I will say that Bandicam is pretty shit tho

Josh was implying that your statement about removing gamemodes due to "losing any population we have atm" is laughable because we don't actually have any. That being said there IS a population, but one that is not online at the same times. 10 people replied to the April survey, as such there are clearly people. I am still in favor of NOT removing any gamemodes. Sure focus can be shifted to specific gamemodes but that does not necessitate the removal of the others.

Hello everyone! We have a new feature added to the Minecraft server, Crates! What are Crates? Crates are essentially a random item generator. You can obtain keys for various types of Crates. There are currently 6 tiers of standard crates: Tier 1 - $500 - Contains very standard items, nothing too special, such as stone tools and basic materials Tier 2 - $1200 - Contains moderately decent items, such as minerals and Iron tools Tier 3 - $1500 - Contains some potions, brewing items, axes, minerals, and standard Golden Apples Tier 4 - $2800 - Contains Sponge, Melon Blocks, various minerals, and some Diamond tools Tier 5 - $3200 - Contains enchanted Diamond tools, minerals, and combat-related items Tier 6 - $5000 - Contains diamond armor and tools that are fully enchanted, a Nether Star, various minerals, and both types of Golden Apples The prices listed above are the ingame currency costs for buying a key to open a crate. You can buy crate keys using ingame currency, but Donation Store purchases will be added later on. There are also crates for completing surveys, which are ONLY unlockable by doing a survey. You can use crates in Survival, Factions, and SkyBlock. Survival - Go to /warp shop and find the Crates area SkyBlock - Go to /warp skyblock, and look in the HelpCenter Factions - Go down the steps and enter the newly added doors to the interior of the spawn Why are Surveys even a thing? The surveys were created to help get focused ideas on how to improve the MC server, and finds out what people like/don't like. It also presents ideas that staff have for the server to the players, to get their input. If you don't want to do a survey, then don't. The first survey was in April, and it had a pretty fair amount of responses. With the survey, changes have come and will keep coming to the server (cough cough Spawn). Originally, no reward was planned for these surveys. But shortly after the May survey was launched, it was decided that surveys should not go unrewarded. Hence the implementation of the Crates system. April Survey Statistics Not all stats will be shown, but let's go over the basics. Overall, Spawn was rated about average. Not terrible, not great. Most suggestions pointed to changing the theme of spawn to be more current, as it was Christmas for some time. Shortly after the survey got a few responses, the change was made and the spawn is now spring. According to the survey, the most played gamemode is Survival (no surprise there). And apparently, more people sit in spawn for hours than play SkyBlock. In other words, most of you seem to just sit around and talk (don't feel bad, that's what I typically do too). In terms of improving spawn, not much helpful input was given, but oh well. In terms of the least favorite gamemode, there seems to be some conflict. Factions, Survival, and SkyBlock are all even, then some said they are all great and they all suck. In either case, not too much to go on. It seems many of you are pretty happy with the current server structure, but a few still dislike it. Let's look further down. In terms of BungeeCord vs. Hybrid servers, more people prefer Hybrid. That being said, a lot of you also prefer BungeeCord. But that topic will be discussed more in the future. But in terms of those who took the survey, EVERYONE prefers the global chat. Like the earlier bit about Survival, not too much of a shocker. For those who voted, CUEmotes is a somewhat touchy subject, though many of you are either somewhat or mostly content with it. That being said, some changes were made but have not been announced yet. The "18+" emotes have all been removed. Not admin restricted, they have been entirely removed from existence. Most of you also voted to add even more emotes. Additionally, a couple responses suggesting the removal of said 18+ emotes and setting a cooldown were also mentioned. Most of you were either neutral to CUXPSell, or outright didn't know what it was or that it existed. The plugin was developed by a former admin of ND, Cars, but unfortunately I doubt many of your suggestions for CUXPSell will be happening anytime soon since Cars is currently MIA. Most of you actually like the survey idea. Now that was a surprise to me. But it is good, because now I have a decent way of getting ideas and feedback. That being said, some suggestions were made. One of them was that some things should be less mandatory. The argument being that people may not know what some things are, and that people should be able to remain Anonymous as they may feel more comfortable being critical. The other suggestion being to add in-game rewards for doing surveys. First off, in terms of being anonymous, it was set up that people may enter 'Anonymous' into the field. The negative about being anonymous is that rewards cannot be validated. (It typically is not a problem but it could be in the future if Survey Keys are abused.) As for rewards, those are already implemented as mentioned above! Well, for those who filled them out, everyone voted that Surveys should keep coming. As such, they will. In terms of the MC server and CU/ND as a whole, most of you had good things to say. But the bad things to say were all the same - we need people. Also said is that we need Staff in different TimeZones, and someone suggested a CS:GO server. Not sure on the CS:GO server, but Staff in various TimeZones is definitely a good idea (CSGO is not out of the question, just that we are unsure of the real demand for it at this time). To top everything off, the banner for the MC server on server listings will be updated at last:

Hello everyone! We have implemented a new authentication system to the Minecraft server. The big highlight is that premium players will not have to register or login anymore. If you are PREMIUM, then you won't have to worry about anything as your username cannot be used without proper Minecraft/Mojang authentication (aka cracked clients with your username will reject the connection). This has actually always been a thing since AutoIn was added, however it didn't make a difference since logging in was either forced on everyone or disabled for everyone. This would have been fine except that cracked users would be vulnerable. If you are CRACKED, pay close attention to what I am about to say. All passwords have been reset on the server, as a new plugin to handle /login and /register has been added to allow this update to occur. As such, you will need to join and at the very least register your password again.

From what I can tell, Prison will likely require its own BungeeCorded server. Once we get the Dedicated server back I will begin setting it up (but don't let me forget ) Only thing is, what little players we have right now are accustomed to the current setup. People play all the different modes here and there. While there may be a lot of modes on the server I personally don't see the logic in gutting everything and then leaving one. The thing about the current modes is that not too much can be done to boost their functionality. I've heard suggestions of incorporating Towny but that's about it. Plus (from what I know, I could be totally off with this one) survival servers don't seem all that popular nowadays. I do invite you to help me understand why gutting nearly every mode on the server would be beneficial, because it just seems nonsensical to me atm.

Hey, everyone! Chaotic United's new MC experience are constantly being upgraded every day. Here soon we plan to make the push to start incorporating minigames. Currently, SkyWars has the most progress towards it and will likely be the first gamemode to be implemented. But afterward, I want to know what we should focus on afterward. A poll has been created to assist in this. Have at it! If you have an idea for an entirely unique minigame, or one from another server that you want added and isn't on the list, just reply to this topic with said suggestion.

Hello everyone! I am looking for some talented builders who would be interested in becoming part of the CU Build Team. The CU Build Team is basically a fancy term for the group of people who are tasked with building spawns, arenas, etc. for the MC server. There is no formal application for this rank nor any advertising requirements. All you have to do is make something awesome in the Creative world to prove your skill, and then message me or another high staff member (Owner, Manager, Mod+) that you are interested in building for the server. You will be asked about 3 questions, and then, if your build is deemed good enough, you will be assigned your new rank. Make something jaw-dropping - Something that gives an actual reaction in someone has a better shot at getting approved. Good luck!

Don't worry, won't be needed. (also your sig broke xd)

Just to add on: The dedicated server will infact be lost. The Modded MC server is postponed until further notice. Sorry for everyone that was looking forward to it. I was also excited for it. It is not cancelled but it may be some time before it sees the light of day again.

True. Though I basically love any kind of soda (or pop, or coke, or even black liquid that fizzes <- there's a reference here, see if you can catch it ) The person below me hates Mountain Dew.

Modded MC Server, possible Runescape server, more room for expansion on the main MC server just to name a few.

Well I meant to add one when CU and ND first merged, but I never got to it. I can add if you want alycat As for the game, no I hate shopping because I'm lazy. ^^ The person below me views (or has viewed) the forums at a school computer at some point or another.

Yesh

Just added. (List will be updated later, as 40+ mods have been added since its last update, also this modpack will contain massive incase noone noticed lmao) Will test the mod shortly and ensure it works properly.

Updated main post with an important note and the current mod list.

But it's a custom modpack ._.

Or just add them all and see if it runs >:

Already in ;D Once I find a few more mods that I want added myself personally, I will add a list to the main post of the mods so far.
