• Message sounds, when players are AFK you can use @username to ping them a sound, it also sends them a sound when you send a /msg, we can customize what commands send them sounds, we can customize the sound too, this may get very annoying so we may remove this later on.

So far, I’m finding this quite annoying 🙂 Every time someone /msg’s me, I get a lovely little note block sounds, and I spent ages trying to see if someone had set up a note block machine near my base 😛

Other than that, I love all the new features, and although the swearing filter might need to be a bit more lenient, I’m all for pirate slang being shown in the chat 🙂

Just wondering, isn’t there some pirate lore about a black spot? Sure I’ve heard of that somewhere, wonder if it could be used 😛

lol half asleap and drunk XD

i like this server owner <3

I would say, 99.999999% perfect.  If I were to belly ache a little, not that I am,  it would be nice not to force us into not using texting short hand – like its replacing my ‘ty’ with Thank You, and ‘wb’ with Welcome Back, and capitalizing every first letter.  I’m a big boy and I know how, when, why, where, to use grammar and sometimes I choose not to, for whatever reason.  I’m all for the swearing filter, but really, this isn’t high school english class (note the lack of caps with ‘english’)  🙂

ok, i’m done, ty

however,  after all that, the server is smooooooth as silk!  very nice upgrade!!!!  ty, ty, ty!
