so, I have a build on ae0’s island and everything seems to be working fine except I need to put some water by a melon plant I have and it won’t let me. No message about permissions, the water just disappears. I can place blocks, but just not water.

Anyone else have this issue or can tell me what I’m doing wrong?

the building is open to look at, on the north side by the orange balloon, has a sign on it, St. Mary’s.

Thanks for any suggestions.  ??

For the past few days, many of us have been getting this annoying, now infamous, sentence in our playing time. That sentence is, Piratecraft is restarting, come back in 1 minute. Lately, Piratecraft has been getting much more lag more frequently. The lag could be coming from just anything really, an increase in players, amount of people in a given area maybe, more sailing of larger ships, the emotes, or the upcoming transition to 1.10 minecraft. Just last night, people on the piratecraft server experienced a large lag spike which resulted in the server restarting 2 or 3 times. At the time of the lag spike, there were many people at Ae0 island play fighting so maybe that had something to do with the restarting of the server. Today, GodsDead closed the server for a little bit so he could get rid of the emotes because he believed that, that was causing the lag spikes. So far after that, there haven’t been any manual restartings that I know about. So what do you think is causing all of this lag and what do you think will happen to the current lag when 1.10 hits? Tell the Pirate Craft Times your opinion in the reply section below. If I messed up on any of my information in the news story please mention that as well, it all helps!-Spreading news across the seas, we’ll see you on the server!

Is it because of lots of people gathering up?

For the past several of days, Goldieh has been getting to Ae0 Island where he then terrorizes anyone there and kills everybody that is there at the wrong time. The Heart Pirates, the crew Goldieh is in, is on Kill On Sight at the island for the past couple of weeks, yet he still goes there and escapes without dying. Just today he was there at Ae0 island on at least two different occasions. Both times he was invisible, had God armor on, and was dual wielding two swords. Also on both of those occasions, he killed some of the people there but luckily not too many people were at the island at the time. When it was released into the chat the Goldieh was at the island, he took off while many other people came in ready to fight, but sadly was never met with one against the infamous player. More than likely, Goldieh will continue to attack the island until he is put in check, but in order to do so, there would have to be guards at Ae0 island that are strong enough to take on Goldieh and possibly kill him. Until then, we have no idea what else he may do at the island.

There have also been smaller attacks at Ae0 Island more to just annoy people and possibly kill people depending on what they are wearing at the time. These smaller attacks are being led by people such as Maiz, what many of us know him by, and people like him are going complete invis. and then running around with some type of weapon and then starts hitting anyone they come to. There is a really simple solution to make sure you are being safe when it comes to this type of situation. First off, make sure that you are not AFK (away from keyboard) in an open space at the island. Second, be observant of your surroundings, if you see a blueish type of bubbles appearing out of nowhere, be very careful. I will explain what to do if this happens later on. Third of all, look for any random continual splashes in the water or material kicking up as if someone is running on the ground. 99% of the time, that is someone who is invisible. Now what you should do if you see any of these signs is either just go away from it all and be protected, or if you’re doing something at the island, just HIT the source of the commotion, DO NOT shoot the person because even though they shouldn’t be invisible, it could always be one of your crew members or allies. Whenever you hit the person it will show their name and if that is a name on the KOS board you have permission to kill them or call on someone who will.

So, what is your opinion on any of the stuff going on at Ae0 Island? If we forgot anything or something that you believe should be added, please leave a reply to the news story, it would be most appreciative. Also add your opinion to what we should do differently on the next news story, it all helps! –Spreading news across the seas, we’ll see you on the server!

Front Side of Ae0 Island at Night Time: Lately much violence has been breaking out in this peaceful place

A raid on Lucky’s base: Two days ago (July 9th) Lucky Vincentius told everyone in chat that there was going to be a raid at his base. So, everyone started going there and eventually, practically the whole server was there at his base. After several minutes of waiting, Lucky opened up his gates and everyone was off! From armor, to weapons, to heads, to special event items, you name it, he had it! Everyone was getting everything and you were lucky if you found a chest with something good in it, but while you were by yourself. So after about 30 minutes of crazy raiding, people started to teleport out, but there were some that stayed behind. You see, this was not Ae0’s island where a bounty has to be over $50 to kill someone, here you could kill anybody with a bounty and that is exactly what happened. People started attacking one another, there was tnt going off, and the whole entire base was just being destroyed. After while, pretty much everyone left, and that was really the end of Lucky Vincentius’s base. We do not know what caused him to do this or just what gave him the idea, but we do know that some people got some really special stuff from the raid and they should be glad they got it before anyone else!

Strong Violence on Ae0’s Island: Today (July 11th) the newer rising pvpers, Goldieh and Trafalgar, lead a violent and strong attack on Ae0’s island. His island is a growing shopping community that is very populated with people. So, Goldieh and Trafalgar took advantage of that and led chaos into the island. They started their attack by killing the island’s owner Ae0, and started picking off any people that were sadly in the wrong place at the wrong time. Before they could take total control of the island however, Ice Knight, Galaxy219, Cysteen, Sir_Croc0dile and Riverwood, met them head on and started to defend the island. They battled for 5 minutes until it became an aqua warfare. Goldieh and Trafalgar jumped into the ocean trying to escape, but Cysteen kept them in combat for enough time for others to get there. At that point, everyone was far out in the ocean and Riverwood was killed by the two, and a little bit after Trafalgar quit the server the second he went out of combat. Cysteen, Galaxy, Ice Knight and Sir_Croc0dile kept after Goldieh for awhile but eventually he was able to teleport away once more without dying. There have been several big fights against these two rising pvpers and each time, the people attacking them are learning better techniques to try to beat them. To see a video of a fight against Goldieh and Trafalgar, look onto the recent forums and check out “Heart Pirates Vs Templar Epic Battle!” by Oli 😀 (Ice Knight). -Spreading news across the seas, we’ll see you on the server!
