Yeah, a darknode would be better, but I think being able to position the node is safer (I just imagined spawn being overrun by giant zombies).

Dark nodes are not that uncommon just look for a hallow hill or an unstable node works as well.

after a few hours of trekking, I have added an infinite redstone and glowstone supply to the manufactorum: Next up will be a more stable power supply, then infinite copper and tin

If anyone wants to trade for the following: I have a few tasks that need to be completed (that I have materials for)
iron, gold, redstone, glowstone, wheat, lava, stone brick, blaze rod, rocky BEEZ, enderballs

I could set up an infinite grinder for creepers or endermen if you want....

Dark apostle, I prohibited you from doing anything around my area after you vandalised my base with a creeper then did nothing to clean the explosion up. Then you started digging, and trying to break into my base.

I warn people who are going into TDAs group, he will mooch, and he will also start projects with no intention of finishing and leaves OTHER PEOPLE to do them, and you've done it on more than one server.

What are you on about?

I was actually defending you from that creeper, and I did clean up, I actually used my own resources to do it

At first I thought you were making things up to get me in trouble (which you have done in the past) but it was 4oursword you pointed out that the kinetic generator makes a very distinctive sound, which you could have easily mistook for me digging, thanks 4.

Start projects and leave others to finish? Haha, your just making this up as you go along aren't you. I actually don't have a clue what your on about with this, could any one help? If your talking about the blue tower, it wasn't my idea, anvil actually volunteered as when I recruited him, we are now good friends (a lot of people say he's doing the grunt work, but out on the world searching for valuables like silverwoods, totems and others. And I always offer to do work when he's online)

On more than one server, are you talking about the emperors palace? That wasn't even my idea, I was helping grundz as he was unfamiliar with the mods.

Don't criticise me for the LoL docadeth, or at least check your statements, we don't want what happened last time! When you said I caused your reactor to overheat, because if my frames. 1. I didn't have any frame machines when it happened, 2. When I looked to help cleaning up, you reactor didn't exist and there wasn't lava anywhere, which you said, and I quote "oh no there's lava everywhere, I'll have to move"

I had an iron door shut, and no way for the creeper to get into my base for your information. I actually also heard glass smashing, the only glass near my base is in my windows..

I will go on. Your Titan in the tekkit server, you left that for me to clean up, and then chucked a gak fit about it when I asked for PAYMENT for an hour of my time. You broke into my base in tekkit which you admitted to, then looked at the wrong nuclear reactor, as my breeder reactor is hidden a lot more. (because it needs to be on more).

Well, I was going to knock down the Titan and why should I pat you if I never asked for you to do it, and why should I pay when you openly state that your going to steal my stuff.
For those who don't know what happened,
I logged on to knock down the Titan, he cursed about dark apostle, saying I'm stuff I won't mention, I offered to help, not telling him I'm dark apostle. After we've finished a bit of it, I asked him what is he doing with the stone he's taken, he responded by saying, taking it. I then told him who I was and he handed back a suspiciously small amount of the reinforced stone. So why should I have payed you?

Editing out

No point feeding the troll.

I think we should all just calm down...

I have infinite ender balls, and witches drop gunpowder too so don't need creepers anymore

My plans are:

1. Get improve energy independence, this would be:
-I'm looking to relocate my wheat farm and such to the mega build age to stop losing 20% of my energy to tessaracts and to rely on less chunk loaders.
-Need a bunch of stills and a liquid fueled steam box/industrial steam engines to convert this to fuel then feed itself
-Separate lava generation to community lava storage and some misc stuff
-Figure out a way of getting MJ to EU

2. need to figure out the golems for that community chest white-white-white

3. need a bunch of magic bs like brains in a jar, soul shards, spawners, ect.

4. also need ghast tears and a laaaaarg amount of dark iron to upgrade many barrels to dimentional

he was more than a small annoyance on the Tekkit server showing up and borowing things without permission.

and as for the TfB server there were atleast a couple times he mentioned having people join one of his groups and paying them to do work for him.

So you'd like someone to blow up a creeper next to your base door, and not even apologise? And *defending me against a creeper*

If trying to blow up a creeper so it affects me is defending me, Pigs will fly.

Paying people to do work for me? Like who? Ive never ales some one to do something for me, example please. Also docadeth, how am I a troll?

Here, I will give you a guide to being successful

stop acting like you're 10
-real people don't ask questions like "why am I a troll?" "why does everyone hate me" or other whiney baloney, if you don't see why, continue dialing things back until you don't have the problem

-stop begging, You'll notice I say "hey anyone want to trade I could use copper" not "hey anyone have copper i can have?" When stormy was out of stone, hell I volunteered a few hundred stacks I have in barrels

-stop having ADD, whenever you /are/ allowed/asked/volunteer to help, you get bored and wander off or go do your own thing before anything actually happens most of the time ex: giant netherstone spaceship in tekkit. You keep having grandiouse plans about A and B and C and D, but never complete any of them or even create the backbone to support any of them without constant begging

-If you can't handle the above, or even better if you can, go do your own thing and create something, you might say hey, I dont play online to play by myself, remember other people don't play online to be badgered by you either. Do something non-communal, by yourself, and relax

Grundz has some points, DarkApostle- he is wise, listen to him.

Essentially it boils down to personal integrity. I wander around peoples places and poke at their stuff too. I beg for blue things. I don't always stay out of the 'keep out' places.

But when I poke around other people's bases, I don't move anything or take anything, even if it seems inconsequential or important (okay, there was that one time I fixed Mata and Cap's Crucible setup, but I used my own stuff for that one). When I beg for blue things, I make it amusing, and politely thank people who do donate (plus, I ask once or twice when I find I need the stuff, then leave it be- "Bothering" people essentially happens when you do the same or a similar thing repeatedly- this is something learned through hard experience). And when I lose something, whether it's my fault or someone else's, I accept it (maybe with a little whining) without blaming anyone- even if it is someone else's fault.

Basically- be polite in your dealings. Don't muck up what you can't fix. Go out of your way to help others, before yourself. And above all, don't think highly of yourself. When you don't expect praise, it's all the sweeter when given. When you don't tout your own greatness, it's all the more satisfying when someone else speaks about how great you are. Let your actions speak for themselves.

Also being hugely elitist to people who use quantum armour doesn't help.

Oh and not accusing people of things they aren't. I've proved in the past that I don't boast excessively, and I disproved you by popular vote again today.

thanks for fixing stuff and feel free to take any blue xy stuff you want

After a handful of hours of work blew up for no reason I pointed my infinite resource generators to white-white-white and am done with this for now

With all these resources we should build a giant city. Like so. Seeing as most of us are talented architects.
Anyone wanna do a community thing like we did on vanilla?

Maybe we could manage one of those towers, if we could get more than a single person working on a single project.

But we all tend towards radically different build styles and ideals- it's hard enough getting resource donations from people (and I'm talking logistics, not just willingness) for stuff- believe me, I know.

Plus people have difficulty working off plans and patterns.

The Mesa'd be almost finished by now if I could get help from even one or two people willing to work on my plan- the Dwarven Halls (of various kinds) would be looking much more awesome... Grundz would have more of his titan finished, Ma55sterFett's cavern would be filled with columns to rival Khazad-dum, we'd have 2 separate Elven Cities on the map...

The largest thing we've ever managed to put together as a community is Suburbia, and that's essentially a conglomeration of a dozen different buildings put on separate parcels of land.

Sure, we could probably make something awesome if people would be willing to build around pre-existing structures and change their plans on the fly, but I think we're not gonna be able to do that anytime soon.


But yeah. That's kinda what I'm hoping the Turris Caerulean will end up like. But more useful.

really the only thing stopping my titan was I got tired of constantly going back for materials, lack of flight, and constant creeper repairs I didn't want help because I dont trust anyone elses skill to be honest. everyone I had help me with any of my various projects, helped a little then left, or made crap, with a few exceptions.

I just dont have the drive to do that again, I'd rather just join a creative server and make something crazy

we dont have a dakka creative server do we?

We've got a 'mega Build Age' which is kinda like it.

Would be neat if Dark made it somehow so that the Mega Build Age automatically swapped you to Creative Mode when you entered, and prevented any material or energy transfer out of it. The first part I think would be possible with code blocks (command blocks?) but the second part less so.

Agreed.
Would be fun but only the items that you brought could be used but are unlimited in number.

Though ever since we all could get gravi chests. We can achieve this we just need to find an area to build something like a dakka city. Would be fun. And all we have to do is combine into one building style. It needs to be really really really big. Bigger than we have ever built before. A city not a titan

Also populating it with civilians. *(villagers)
which is impossible...... Because we need eggs or a spawner. Which we can't make. And villagers are rare to come bye as they constantly die. (they really need to fix their AI they are dumber than a nail, but at least the nail doesn't die.

It could just kill us when we wanted to leave, or cleared our inventory. It'd need clear warnings outside of it first though if that happened.

Which wouldn't be too hard. Just only have one portal there. ANd a huge sign telling you what would happen.
PLease darknnit make this possible Would be interesting to create one. And an on off switch would be nice, just need to learn how to use the command blocks. Which are the keys to making this work.

I could imagine some thing like this, the more I think of it the more I can see ways to this, can warded blocks be broken in creative mode? Combining this with destroying any ender chests, tesseracts or routers and then some basic command block commands you can have a in and and out system each one using different commands to on entry, destroy your inven, set to creative, and teleport you to a new area (so you can fiddle with the system) then have a way to go back, where the command blocks would destroy inven, turn off creative, then kill you.

Yes, warded blocks can be broken in creative mode

Oh, in that case just protect it.

I have been thinking about what Dr.What has been saying, he onllikes those who have proven themselves. So I'm granting everybody on this server one time to let me prove myself, simply tell me what you want, whether it's kill a lich, find a silverwood or give some help, I will do it, to redeem myself. But not for me, I'm not doing this for myself, I don't mind people hating me, it's peoples hate affecting those I like that I hate, I'm doing this for the triarii, because I may be a BS guy, but the triarii isn't a BS group just because I'm the founder. There are some amazing people in it and they are very skilled in there chosen mods.

Just change your behaviour a bit, and they'll all be happy.

Just do what Grundz and Anvildude have said...

Stop being a dick, simple.
