Possible whitelist / More server publicity
« on: August 29, 2012, 01:51:47 PM »
Let's face it, Innectis doesn't get the attention it deserves. When it does get it, it's either someone that instantly leaves, spams the chat, or becomes a burden on the community. The only way I found out about Innectis was from Guin. No forum posts on other websites like the official minecraft forums to advertise it, nothing on Planet Minecraft. Absolutely nothing. Which explains why the top amount of people online at most times is 8, or 16 or so for an hour at a prime time. Even then, Innectis has died a bit with most of the people leaving due to the mod picks and how empty it is. So could you actually attempt to spread the word of how this is a great server?

Another thing, a whitelist. Even if you advertised it, a lot of bad people would flock to it. Spammers, griefers, etc. So adding a whitelist, where you have to post applications, would cut these down a bit. Whitelisted servers are preferred, because normally they have a better community, with harsher entries.

also, they can actually spell.

We are never going to whitelist the server, ever.

And as for spreading the word, I would like to nail down a new tutorial zone first, as well as make the three remaining lot area spawns, before we think about this further, but I do urge people to vote for us on http://www.minestatus.net/7163-Innectis

I like to make things. That pretty much describes the kind of person I am.

I absolutely hate white lists. Having to wait to build is uncool and quite annoying. It's very discouraging as well. It's quite nice that Innectis allows you to have 1 30x30 lot at the beginning of your Innectian Adventure.

I also disagree with Whitelisting the server, I find one of the reasons Innectis is attractive is because of it's accessibility. I know signing up for white listed servers isn't much work, but alot of people don't like to wait, and doing this would also require some of the staff's time for approving members (time that could be spent helping people or working on IDP). I also think it's best to let users come onto the server themselves and see what we have to offer, rather than just looking at an information page and pics.
