Potential Minecraft Server?

[Maka]

Hello all!

After a brief discussion on discord, it seems like part of the community  want to play Minecraft. However, there is a bit of a disparity in what kind of server would be best, vanilla or modded.

Some of the problems that have been encountered in the past (from my understanding) were; maintaining the player base, mods too complicated or vanilla too boring. 

I propose that we create a vanilla trial server that is community funded (for incentive to keep playing) with a server wide goal; something like building a server hub/huge building project. Another suggestion was to have a competition in which we recreate some of our fav TTT maps (maybe with prizes).

I think a joint goal will give people who have played a lot of vanilla  in the past a good long-term direction and hopefully stop them from getting bored. As for players who found the mods daunting, vanilla means they could learn from the bottom up and eventually think about a modded server.

I have some ideas of what a large scale building project could be if we get to that point.

I'd love to hear what everyone thinks, so please post some replies! :))

I'd also be willing to try and get this off the ground myself, but hopefully we could do it together.

Do you guys have any ideas of how we could retain players?

Think it would be great to give it another crack :))

Anything other than TTT wasn't being run by Menace, TTT Vanilla/Deathrun/surf/DarkRP/Minecraft were all run by someone else but with permission from Menace or someone creating and posting it publicly
