    I'm a user who joined back in 2012 during Lost Islands and played Skyblock with my friends. I remember the day Infection was released and remember the popularity of the server especially Creative.

    However, I joined today to find hardly any players online. They changed Skyblock and now the lobby no longer has grinders, PvP or even a shop. Creative has like 8 players instead of the hundreds that used to host RPs and headshops. Someone told me Collin sold the server so what happened and why is the server dead?

    • First of all Collin closed the server so many player never checked back to see if it was open they thought minetime was done and over.
    • Also there was like 3 months of downtime. The new owners came and we had to remove rank perks that were against the eula to be unblacklisted which meant we had to wait 3 months to be unblacklisted. Many players became inpatient or thought it would never open so quit
    • By removing perks that were against the eula we had to remove kits this made players fustraighted, many players liked eula pay2win servers by kits being removed it kind of almost ruined games in some players eyes and people have also donated a lot of money to see their rank perks go. This made many players quit also.

    We are also not gaining any new players because unlike Collin, Cyp refuses to take out adds to promote the server.

    I'm not trying to be negative- but I doubt very many players still think Minetime is closed.
