Hey, welcome to PirateCraft, Bit of a strange place for an introduction, Especially all in bold? maybe I should create an intro’s forum, Ill do that.
Thanks, but im fine with the web stuff, have 10 years under my belt in website design, the website is being re-built from scratch, although there is nothing wrong with it at present.
I do have a random notification in-game for the forum link??
In a vague way of being on-topic still, talking about forums I will create an introductions forum for new players.

Had a tidy up of the forum structure, Renamed some forums, re-ordered and created a new category to house the new support forums.
New:
Server Support
Renamed:
- PirateCraft server Developments to PirateCraft server updates
- Public Group Talk to Open Group/Crew Discussion
Layout:
- Sub-forums are now listed on a new line instead of comma separated & larger font-size.
- re-ordered forums

Thanks @michty.
We’ve never had such compelte and utter scummy tactics on PirateCraft, Im sorry this asshole wasnt banned sooner.
Good work Markus.
Looks like this is all via Firecore, what a complete back stabbing.
For the books, he asked to be banned for “Advertising” so that he could stay as admin on this other scummy rip off server without actually advertising.
If anyone can find the hardware owners skype or contact information, please make them public, hes sending people to advertise his “server” on PirateCraft in return for OP. Double scummy.

I expanded the map from 3500 block radius to 4000 blocks today, so there is a wide area around the whole of the world to explore a bit further.
I am waiting for when 1.8 is released and we are running it to expand the world greatly, as 1.8 has new biome generation, The future plan is to be running a 15,000 block radius world like from PirateCraft V1.
I added in-game paid warps for everyone today too, you can see the coloured markers on the livemap, these will form 4 new spawns, each costs £15 to warp to each time.
The new warps are:
- /warp north
- /warp east
- /warp south
- /warp west

These hosts are driving me absolutely insane, They not only caused all this, but they didn’t read all the tickets I have left them, and they deleted the main configuration for the server and started it!? FOR WHAT REASON.
A new configuration means it defaults to a world called, world, our world is not named world it is named PirateCraft_1.
Hence the strange new world, not only this but our mysql server is STILL suspended, after them reading the 2 tickets, 2 twitter messages and facebook message.
I am literally lost for words, and yet again am waiting on these amazing people to press one button, how that can take so long is beyond me.
Piratecraft is up but the world isn’t the same… Just be patient guys… Godsy will sor this out… don’t forget time differences you ppl 🙂

To cut down on the recent abuse from web-chat spam, I have activated needing permission to use it, players now have to be Cadet rank or above and have logged in at least once to PirateCraft from the current IP.
So if you want to talk to people in-game and are already Cadet; from a location you have not logged into PirateCraft before, you can do one of two things.
- Log into PirateCraft from that new IP, this will be added to your account.
- Or if you cannot play minecraft (School/Work/Public) You can paste your IP in this forum thread and I will add it to your username manually.
To find out your locations current public IP Google “whats my ip“, Google will tell you this at the top of the page with:
Your public IP address is
Also be aware of recent changes to the live map’s claims being hidden by default.
We blow it up, we mine it out, we cut it down then burn it!!!!!!

Ok, I am done here. I don’t feel like ever returning until those arseholes are gone.
I can’t take this bs anymore. All I want to do is enjoy the community, build the stuff I want to build and share it with you!
I don’t want to have to look a the map every few minutes or react to their threats!
Can’t you bloody see the Hattawi’s need to be removed?? Is it that difficult to filter the people who only enjoy the server for causing as much ‘pain’ as they possible can out from the people who love PirateCraft for the fun of creating a Pirate world with interesting cities and ships full of people to share a fun experience with?
Even wars can be fun, it adds a something interesting, but this is so unpersonal, useless and on such a large scale…
It is impossible to do anything without them trying to destroy what you’ve been working on for so long!
Oh and keep the “But it’s a pirate server…” argument out of this, for fucks sake! This obviously is not about Piracy here.
This is about a bunch of heartless people who intend to break this communtiy.
I am angry that certain people clearly don’t understand what effect leaving the Hattawi’s in this game has (had) and will have.
Trust me, you are a great friend, Gods, but the decision of doing nothing to prevent people like this to ruin PirateCraft is wrong!
I tried diplomacy, I tried fighting them. If none of that works I have nothing left to do here.
Ps. Someone got raided tonight. (see picture)

I just came back from having left the server for a month because of people like the Hattawi’s!
Maybe I should just return to not playing PirateCraft anymore, because this is becoming really really annoying.
Everytime I join I check if the Hattawi’s are online. If they are online I don’t want to continue building, because there’s a good chance they pop up from nowhere and take my stuff.
Gods, maybe they aren’t hacking, but doesn’t it matter that everyone feels bad about them being here? Everybody feels some kind of hate towards them and I think that is more important than proof of hacking.

Everybody can now create simple working portcullis gates for their castles, towns, walls etc.
There are no limits on size or quanittiy of gates you can have, I have created a detailed page under the information tab on the website:
http://piratemc.com/information/portcullis/
There is a new public /warp gates of working examples you can test out and see how they work, thanks to @Unic0rnjunk101 for helping me build this area, Im still in need of someone to build some fancy medieval walls around this area to make it more safe from mobs, apply in this thread if you are intereted.

A few shot’s of recent events, trying to get a shot for the PirateCraft banner!

Just to get started… I don’t think PirateCraft should have anything related to Hunger Games… it would just set us with the group of the many other servers that have Hunger Games… We need something more creative and pirate related. The other thing is that there is a very nice “gate plugin” that allows you to create signs and hook up some redstone to open and close fence/ironbar portcullis’ess

For those interested, I built a treasure room at bedrock, created a bedrock surrounding all around it, layers of bedrock with small holes you had to find to get down to the next layer, and about 10 layers of “rooms” you had to break and fight through to get to the prize.
Seeing 5 people all reach the island at the same time was hilarious, I wish I filmed it, the next one I am recording!
The fight ended up being 4 vs 1, @Unic0rnjunk101 was that 1 who managed to get to the buried loot!
The long term plan is to have loads of these type mini-games as a mini-game mode, PirateCraft – Buried Treasure, or something along those lines, that we can design in a creative world and turn into proper mini-games (somehow).
For now, I think I might make some more hidden treasure pits like this around PirateCraft and hold events when the server’s busy!
Any ideas are welcome to this thread!
