Beginning
Age: 12
Interests: Minecraft, hockey
Main activities on server: Building way too many statues
Memories: Sneaking on the computer late at night to play, being annoying, thinking I was gonna get accepted for Moderator (I wouldn't have accepted 13 year old me either), doing nothing with my life

Now
Age: 17
Interests: Programming, hockey
Other: I hadn't even started high school when I joined Opticraft- I'm now about 5 weeks away from finishing my last class. I've also finished almost a year of college and worked in the IT Services department of a university as a student software developer.

Minecraft and Opticraft was the introduction to what would be not only something I greatly enjoy, but my career, programming.
I'm very grateful to all the friends I made over the years (a few that come to mind are zeldie, nikoljan (and hundreds more through my adventures with him), the crippns, wone) that all helped me get where I am today. Opticraft will forever be an important part of my life. Thank you for the experience guys <3

I'm on Discord pretty much 24/7 unless sleeping or coaching hockey, my username is Griffin (with a pug picture), feel free to message me, I'd love to hear from you

1. Kind of. I like Sade's idea of having the old worlds still accessible through a MP server, though I am fully aware of the problem of funding and management. Consider it?

2. From personal experience, player shops can be difficult to promote. Largely because it can be confusing to set them up. If you do this, I strongly, strongly recommend making an easily accessible video, wiki, and/or something similar to assist players in the setup.

Furthermore, I think some serious research and input by someone well versed in economies (that means some college study) should be consulted if possible. This will help in the long-term.

Theres a plugin called HyperConomy. I've not played with it too much, mostly cause I didn't understand it, but maybe it would be perfect for Opti. Check it out. (I am not sure about bugs or incompatibilities, though it seems it is under active development)

3. 'Modes'? Please explain further. Having WG regions scattered throughout the map, alerting players upon entry, maybe. Full on worldwide PvP? No. I joined (and stayed on /in touch with) Opticraft for the relaxing, close community aspect. PvP ruins this.

4. Depends on how you execute this. Could be a huge success, or it could be a fall-flat failure.

5. Same as above.

Excuse the horrid camera quality. I really didn't feel like struggling with my DSLR and I don't have a phone.
And yes, my chair is extremely comfy.

Sorry tobs lol I frantically searched for the solution after I posted

Apollo 18

I was just flying around, looking at all the builds, and I thought some of them were really cool.

But I had no idea who built them.

So I would like to suggest giving access to /lb tb (or whatever you use to get the bedrock) so we can see who built what.

Please leave feedback ^_^
