    Hey Minetimers!

    I am pleased to announce that today is the release day for our new Factions Reset. The Staff Team is excited to bring to you another reset that many of you have been waiting for! This thread will go over certain aspects of the new reset so that you are familar and are ready to play.

    "New" Map
    The 1.5/1.6/1.8 Factions Map has been revamped by our Build Team with a new style to it and more detail!

    1.12 with 1.8 Mechanics

    The server has been updated to feature 1.12 blocks and other features. That being said, because Factions is a PvP oriented gamemode, we have implemented a plugin that utilizes 1.8 PvP mechanics.

    It is recommended that you play in 1.12 over previous versions. ProtocolSupport will allow you to connect with previous versions but they may not function properly.

    Added Plugins/Features

    • Bounties
    • Ability to sell items in Auction House - /ah (Donators have access to sell more items at a time)
    • Mob Arena is back! Featuring 3 new arenas with a maximum of 5 players, battle against mobs to earn rewards and experience.
    • Voting - Rewards have been modified so you receive $1,000 as well as XP Levels per vote.
    • Crates - Factions now features 5 crates. Including: Common, Lucky, Armor, Exceptional & Creeper crates.
    • NoCheatPlus updated to latest version.

    Misc.

    • Spawners are only available through crates or by finding them in the wild. Mobdrops have been 'nerfed'.

    As always, report bugs via a support ticket and if you have any feedback or suggestions on Factions or any of our other gamemodes, feel free to create a thread in the appropriate subforum.

    We hope you enjoy the reset!

    ~ Bman

    @Matthew @Pile @xBMAN and to all the other staff, builders and beta testers who helped form this reset, thank you so much. Factions was the biggest gamemode of Minetime and what it was mainly known for, to see it die was sad and now that it has been revamped, I couldn't be happier to play a game that holds so many memories.

    If you want to attract more players and revive minetime, you guys need to start introducing weekly/monthly payments for the ftop 1/2/3 faction. A lot of servers have been doing this and simply resetting factions isn't going to get you guys more players.

    and as expected, the Minetime staff team simply ignore most suggestions from players which is the reason that the server is dead af :/

    I agree to some extent, but you need to realize the staff have made the server a much more ''try to win'' type of game. Last reset you'd afk hours on your spawners (no effort) and would make millions. Now, you need to work hard for your money and those who are rich are there because they put in the effort. I do agree that they should listen to some suggestions though and implement them.

    Yeah, because having four bots mining and getting your money matters.

    Mining bots are pretty slow and very buggy, lol. Not the easiest thing to work with, I make double the amount of a mining bot in the same amount of time.

    Yes but you can mine, while your one bot mines and your other bot farms netherwart, and so on and so on. The economy is quite frankly awful
