    Dear community,

    Mojang (The creator of Minecraft) has started to enforce the EULA. Many Minecraft Servers including GuildCraft have received emails about this.

    What is the EULA?
    The EULA is a list of rules we automatically accept when starting a server. These rules state that we may not sell items or perks which improves the game-play for the buyer. You can read all about it here: https://account.mojang.com/documents/minecraft_eula

    What does this mean for GuildCraft?
    This morning I heard that we're added to a blacklist for the up-coming 1.9.3 update. The blacklist is only active on that version so do not update to 1.9.3 yet. 1.8.* and 1.9.1/2 are perfectly fine for now.

    We are currently in contact with Mojang in order to get us of that blacklist. That means we will have to change our store to comply with the EULA. We're hoping to receive a new date on which we have to comply so that we can prepare new purchase options. So yes we will comply with the EULA.

    What changes?
    We will no longer sell the current ranks and most perks in the future, there will be a new set of ranks and perks which will be EULA compliant.

    Ranks and perks purchases before this will not be removed. You will keep all current non-eula compliant perks. The old ranks will become so called "Legacy Ranks".

    There will be a 50% sale until we release the new set of ranks and perks.

    FAQ

    Will I lose anything I've bought?
    No, you will keep your rank and perks. The current ranks will simply be no longer available at the store but you will keep it if you already bought it. All the perks will also stay.

    When will the new ranks be released?
    This is currently unknown since we're in contact with Mojang in attempt to get a new date on which we have to be compliant.

    What can we expect?
    The newest ranks will have perks for chat related content, particles, hats, companions, pets and anything possible within the EULA. I do hope they will give us more breathing space since these perks are quite limited. And I'm afraid we will have to start advertising on the website and in-game. Feel free to post your ideas for ranks and perks but do read the EULA first.

      Alright. My small mind does not get this..
      Alright right now I have legend rank so I was planing to get GOD on june.
      So if EULA does soemthing to the buycraft well they have the same perks as the rank right now..?or different ranks. And I dont like the idea of sale that to 50%

      This has always been there it's a copy paste from another server to be honest. Anyway we've have that there to win Chargebacks and in case we got a sudden shutdown but that won't happen since the blacklist is the punishment.

      The 50% off is to generate a buffer. And no one has to worry lol, I've invested allot of money just 2 weeks ago to lower our server costs by 75%. This buffer is also to earn something of that investment back before we have to switch to the other ranks.

      Btw the investment is in actual servers, we will no longer rent them but we actually bought them now ^^ We have 3 new servers and 3 more will come within 2 weeks. They will be installed in the beginning of June.

      Its hilarious, one tiny enforcement in some rules of a game company shook the absolute shit out of 100's of thousands of gamers xD

      [ScrewYouMicrosoft]

      By the way, you can clearly see Microsoft is doing this to just earn more money, in some way or the other. Ugh, why did Notch sell Mojang to Minecraft? We would have never have to see 1.9 retarded combat update and this bullsh!t :(

      I just can't belive this. This is just stupid.
      IF people want to fucking pay for their perks and ranks LET THEM DO IT.
      FFS What is wrong with mojang, they are destroying minecraft.
      In this video that WAR Corporation posted, says it all. If minecraft servers don't get donations, they are going to struggle with paying for developers, hosting or whatever.
      Is everyone in Mojang Dumb or what? "They don't want others to make profit out of minecraft"??
      I hope guildcraft still gets a ton of donations, if not more!
      If guildcraft just shuts down cause of Financial problems cause of this, (and other servers) thousands of people will quit minecraft. Who still enjoys playing singleplayer? -.-

      WTF mojang?

      I HOPE that someone from Mojang is smart enought to stop this shit. And let anyone donate for the servers if they want to.


      I'm sorry for bad words in this post, but I'm just so mad :/


      I don't want guildcraft to stop working (im not saying it will but if it starts getting less or no donations at all, this is the only thing that could happend). Large minecraft servers are not cheap at all and they need donations do keep working.

      I hope mojang realises that they are indeed destroyng people's experience playing minecraft.

      Again I'm sorry for bad words in my post...

      I sent a hate message to mojang, although i Know it wont help. Maybe they should listend to some feedback from players!

      Another question. If GC does NOT update to 1.9.3, then everything would be normal? the kits? Like if people purchase ranks, the kits would remain the same? right?

      in my opinion I totally agree with skellyHD,so why
      imagine GC Premium, we wont have any problems with hackers anymore
      talking about such retards like Sanik and others,who you ban them and their ip and they come back with loads of more accounts,just because GC is cracked.|
      about losing players and the people who cant afford minecraft account,well there is certain ways to get premium accounts and stuff,losing players is normal in every server,because that's how it works actually,in the future there is big chance we will have loads of more players for GC premium
      one of the good points is when a hacker gets ban,it wont be easy for him to come back before the ban time expire,alts abuse (faction server for explain) like to create more accounts to gain power,tbh that wouldn't work anymore on premium ;)

      Then you'll not see famous cracked users anymore like glacezoir23 and many more of them. I'd recommend GC to stay cracked.

      If GC is gonna comply better make it premium too, we would get rid of all those cracked hackers and be able to change our names (aXed knows why huehue) .

      See it as an oppurtunity :)

      Yeah! We would lose some players but we would probably get even more Premium players, cause less hackers and stuff xD
