Ok so, I know I’m banned but I want to make a few suggestions.

1. While I was on the Piratecraft build team, there was literally no organization. We had multiple projects going at the same time, such as the spawn project, warp north, west, etc. There needs to be organization for a server to run well. It was getting better before I was banned, but you know what happened. (Let me make this clear: I am not blaming the decline of the server on the recent bans. It was already going down before that.) When a new player spawns in, there are 3 things they want to see: 1. Basic “what is this server” guide 2. Basic “how to play” guide 3. Basic “what to do next” guide (from my experiences). When you spawn into the pirate ship, the information and tutorial sections should be right in front of your face. New players don’t want to have to walk or go a far distance just to learn how to play, they want to be into the action straight away (or as soon as possible) which piratecraft hasn’t done. While the pirate ship is cool and really well designed, you might want to rethink how convenient it is for the new players to spawn there. Right now, there isn’t even an area teaching you about cannons, and you have to walk a decent amount (with no real direction) to find the claim block house tutorial. Example: Right now, the demo-ship is off to the right of the pirate ship. Then, you have to walk all the way through the arch to find the claim block stuff. Just not convenient. Put them all in one place. In short, set your priorities and get your build team to work on them. Do not have multiple projects going at once. Rethink how convenient it is for the player where they spawn currently compared to where the tutorials are.

2. Think about what the server really needs. In short, PirateCraft did not need the booty wars addition. PirateCraft is not that kind of server and does not attract that kind of players. Don’t try to hop on trends of bigger servers unless piratecraft is that type of server or could really benefit from it.

I didn’t want to say these things when I was on piratecraft, but now since I’m banned nothing I can lose.
