Information Ban Appeal
Posted by: DinoPastaa - 09-21-2018, 06:49 AM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (3)

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SPM

Minecraft name: DinoPastaa

Reason for your ban: Theft

Who banned you: LilDevilian

Why should you be unbanned: I was banned from the server for "theft". The situation was that I went to a /warp and accidently broke a diamond block, because I thought it was claimed, I am requesting an appeal to be unbanned, I can also fully replace the diamonds if needed. I don't remember the name of the warp.

Why do you want to come back: Me and a friend (DinoPandaa) were looking for different servers and we really loved this one and I want to continue playing on this server. So far this server has been a great for us and I really like the way its laid out and all the other players. I know what I did was an accident but it was also wrong. I ask to please rejoin the server.

  Anyone willing to get me VIP2 for 40k in-game?
Posted by: EspInquisition - 09-21-2018, 02:20 AM - Forum: Trading - No Replies

Note: I don't have the money yet, as of now I only have 25k, but once someone agrees to buy for me I'd work out the rest

For a quick reference, VIP2 is 30USD and 40USD can get you 35k in-game. So I'm offering 45-50USD worth of in-game money for a 30USD package

Posted by: Halo71040 - 09-19-2018, 06:12 PM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (1)

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: Halo71040

Reason for your ban: Suspected Xraying

Who banned you: LilDevilian

Why should you be unbanned: I Have not X-rayed ever on the server and the last time I played I was at VentusStrife's Place and we were discussing the maze and such he had built, I do have a fair amount of diamonds as I have won't diamond blocks in the slots after voting, I believe that may have been the reason for my ban

Why do you want to come back:  I would like the ban to be revoked as I enjoy the server and try to vote daily within the server to receive not only slot tokens but to rank up and help the server with Votes as well as i believe my ban was unfair and incorrect

  Ban Appeal - Appleyard
Posted by: Appleyard - 09-18-2018, 03:06 PM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (1)

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord):SMP

[b]Minecraft name:
Appleyard

Reason for your ban: Beacon theft

Who banned you: Guy

Why should you be unbanned: While the rules are quite clear upon login to the server, I had grabbed a beacon I found in what I assumed was a long-abandoned space. I had later enquired as to the rules on this and had been informed that it is not permissible to take something regardless of the time something has been untouched, and had simply forgotten that I had this item before getting to replacing it, ending up simply dumping it in a chest with an inventory of other stuff I had gotten whilst exploring. I'm quite happy to return said item and apologise personally to the affected person(s) if that's something they would like as this was a genuine misstep on my side. Additionally, I can guarantee that there will be no further offences.

Why do you want to come back: The server is extremely wholesome and seems to have quite an enjoyable community. Having been used to towny servers and the like the format here is very refreshing. The people seem pleasant and the general manner in which the server is constituted is very enjoyable. It'd be a shame for one misstep on my own part (admittedly an error of my own and not just an unfortunate coincidence) to spoil that. I play this with my wife and would like to continue doing so on this particular server.
No idea why the formatting is so weird- apologies for that![/b]

  Um banned?
Posted by: MyStIcAl_PaNtHeR - 09-18-2018, 07:01 AM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (9)

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: MyStIcAl_PaNtHeR

Reason for your ban: 'banned by staff for annoyance/begging for unban

Who banned you: 'staff'

Why should you be unbanned: Because I didn't beg for an unban! I asked derp that had said my discord ban was one day if she would unban me from the discord because it had been over a day! She said no so I stopped asking. Inquiring about a ban that was supposedly meant to be a day well over a day is not begging! It is asking why there hasn't been an unban yet. If you say x i expect x and not y. So i asked. That is all!

And for annoyance - I don't think I am annoying, I didn't call anyone names. I am sorry if I did happen to annoy anyone playing minecraft? My english isn't very good so if I did annoy anyone, it wasn't my intention. So on that note, I apologise if anybody felt offended.

Why do you want to come back: Because I have been a huge advocate for the server updating to 1.13. And now that 1.13 is coming to hometown, I am so excited about building my aquarium! I love hometown. I really want to come back and play the game and try not to annoy anybody. Honestly, just do /ignore if I annoy you. I get compliments all the time about my personality and how lovely I am. Please let me come back!

  Minecraft 1.13 Guides, Tutorials, and Information
Posted by: Peashooter101 - 09-17-2018, 10:50 AM - Forum: General - Replies (4)

Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening or whatever arbitrary time it is for you now!

My name is Peashooter101, also known as Peashooter102 or 4a_61_72_65_64.

With the upcoming 1.13 update coming to HomeTown on September 21st, I thought I would collect a list of a few links about Aquatic Update relevant material that some of you may find useful, useless, or be indifferent about.

I had also just found out that YouTube Embedded Videos don't show up in the result...  Sad

If you have anything that you'd like to add to this list, let me know, you will be credited underneath the video / link, this thread will update from time to time if more content relating to 1.13 is found.

Thread Last Updated: 2018 / 09 / 17

So why don't we get started?

Item, Mob, and Experience Farming


docm77's 1.13 AFK Fishing Farm *NEW*https://youtu.be/GYIP9150raY
Video Link provided by thatguy3339

This video is a variation of the 1.13 AFK fishing farm that has been noted to be more reliable on servers than xisumavoid's. Xisumavoid's design is below, however, this may be more reliable on the server in times of lag or server stresses. docm actually notes that Xisuma's works well in single player, but this design is more reliable on multiplayer.

xisumavoid's 1.13 AFK Fishing Farm: https://youtu.be/TJ6CCFoGbig

This video talks about how to build an automatic AFK fishing farm in Minecraft 1.13 due to changes that make the 1.12 version inoperable.

xisumavoid's 1.13 Stored Furnace XP: https://youtu.be/uskkb72uIkk

This video talks about how Furnaces can now store Experience Orbs and can be withdrawn once an item is pulled out of the output slot. This showcase demonstrates a system where you can have just enough experience to fully repair a certain item.

xisumavoid's 1.13 Fish Mob Farm: https://youtu.be/2-imCL-moMs

This video talks about how to create a fish farm (mob based) that spawns fish that actively retrieve fish drops. This system may be useful if you tie it into the Furnace XP Farm concept above to always provide a smelt-able item while you are not Auto-Fishing. Otherwise, Auto-Fishing and Guardian Farms usually get you as much fish as you will ever need.

xisumavoid's Kelp Farm: https://youtu.be/kpo47mCRWuI

This video talks about how to create a Kelp Farm in Minecraft. Kelp is useful as both a building block and a fuel source as Dried Kelp Blocks. As a fuel source, it smelts 20 items total in comparison to coal / charcoal's 8 items per unit. If tied to the Stored Furnace XP video above, this may be more useful.


Utility and Redstone

SwordTV's 1.13 AFK Pool: https://youtu.be/UWiEF-gMOGc
Video Link provided by AmbularD

This video demonstrates how to build an AFK Pool in 1.13. They require a modification as noted by AmbularD in the HomeTown Update Post (link) for proper functioning.

xisumavoid's Trident and Riptide Elevator: https://youtu.be/3QSIBt-L4p4

This video demonstrates how to build an elevator using the Trident and Riptide Enchantment. This elevator allows for vertical travel of 20 blocks per second.

MumboJumbo's Piston Soul Sand / Magma Block Elevator: https://youtu.be/1QRL3Vf8Vb4

This video demonstrates how to create a Soul Sand / Magma Block piston-operated elevator. This utilizes a block switcher in order to change the direction of water pull (down or up, depending on soul sand or magma blocks).

MumboJumbo's Redstone Water Lines: https://youtu.be/4sJD358FvaA

This video demonstrates how to create redstone circuits and some useful applications using water and how water updates affect Observers. This utilizes soul sand to send a block update through the water, which can be detected by Observers. This is useful for creating redstone circuits that can be used underwater.

ilmango's Redstone Leaves Lines: https://youtu.be/xp1u2RlpoxQ

This video demonstrates how to create redstone circuits using leaves and how they work. This method utilizes a new NBT found in leaves known as "distance" and it can be seen in the F3 Block NBT Menu. This change in the distance NBT can be detected by Observers. This is useful for creating redstone circuits that use the build to function (less exposed redstone) or running redstone circuits that can be used underwater.


Building and Design

Grian's Update Aquatic Building Tips and Tricks: https://youtu.be/kUze9GIRCHE

  We are Updating to 1.13
Posted by: frost - 09-16-2018, 11:22 PM - Forum: Announcements - Replies (38)

We will be updating to 1.13 on 9/21

First off, WE ARE NOT RESETTING THE MAP. 

There will be an 'expansion' which will have all the new 1.13 features. This 'expansion' will be in the form of another map with connected inventories and balances much like the res world - but it will be the main world. All warps, towns, sethomes, inventories, and balances will stay and NOT be reset. 

2 things will change with this update. First off all vehicles will stop working. The plugin just can't work in 1.13 and there's not much to be done about it. Secondly, new artmaps cannot be created. Old artmaps will remain and work normally, but you cannot make new ones. This will be temporary and we will get a working artmap back up soon.

Those who purchased the  vehicle package will receive a refund in shop credits worth more than what they paid for the vehicles + the vehicles back if the plugin works in the future. The details on the refund is still a work in progress but I will let you all know.

This will also mean the server will be down for most of the day.

  Ban Appeal
Posted by: Thorsfyi2u - 09-16-2018, 04:14 AM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (5)

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): smp.hometownmc.com

Minecraft name: Thorsfyi2u

Reason for your ban: I don't really know. I was just working on a villager breeder at my base when i got sent back to the title screen. When I tried to log back in it said I wasn't "white listed" for the server. Now I try to log back in a few days later and i've been banned for "griefing/theft". So i'm confused on what exactly I did that qualified as griefing. If someone could give me some context to help me understand what happened that would be super helpful.

Who banned you: AmbularD

Why should you be unbanned: I'm pretty new to the server and was just starting to get my base set up. I don't know if I accidently pissed someone off or what. I mostly just keep to myself with my two other friends who are on the server. 

Why do you want to come back: As I said, i'm pretty new to the server and was really enjoying my time. All of the different warps and such were a really cool way of connecting everyone. I also have two other friends who I played on the server with so I would like to continue playing with them. Thanks for the clarification and help!

[b]Minecraft name: [/b]coen03

[b]Reason for your ban:[/b] X-raying

[b]Who banned you:[/b] LilDevilian

[b]Why should you be unbanned:[/b] I went mining down from my own base, where I found a cave in which I
found a lot of random holes (what i think is the reason for the ban). All of the ores where still in place.
I only mined the ores I could see, upon seeing the random holes in the ground I went down there to see what was there.
I could only see a small crater of which there could have been ores like diamonds.
[b]Why do you want to come back:[/b] I want to get back because me and a friend (AlphaDikkie) where planning
on building a cool base. The idea was to cteate a quarry in which we could build some kind of underground base.
