i'm so damn tired of losing huge chunks of elo to hackers, laggers, and hitbug. im so tired of it. its been like this for ages. i'm so damn angry to being 60x combod by 1000 elo hackers, getting flown by some noob with hitbug, or being comboed by a 3bar player that's teleporting all over the place when i'm the one with 5. i've donated to this server and it just pisses me off that these bugs go unnoticed. potpvp needs a HUGE reset. when i blame lag dont tell me i don't know anything about hosting a server. tell me WHY or something that's going to help me. a few points -remove unbreaking iii from the armor gapple ladder games last too long -fix fcking hitbug -fix matchup system: based on GLOBAL elo not ladder elo -fix woodsword matchups, stop putting us in damn 3v8s -more creative ladders, such as iron pvp or no enchants
Making a mini-game imitating the real, serious MOBAs, with those 'rank' things, in a game so easily hackable such as Minecraft does not work.
Like maybe you dont know but server running is hard work. And with the co leader that left GC. They need to work harder it cant be done in 2min. Be patient. @aXed @ItsAmethyst
Agree 10000000% , potionpvp server is a huge bug that need to be fixed , and about the damn hackers , i think u need to add more admins . -3BooD
Adding more admins won't work. If there would be 4 admins, each one active for 6 hours each, now that would work.
Pot pvp is laggy af, I get a good 150 ping(it isn't that bad) in kitpvp I play so smoothly, while when I come to potpvp I lag like shit, litrally already have reported this like 100times, movement lag is sooo irritating, also the fact that old potpvp was way better, the only problem then was probably hackers, while now lagging is a huge issue, in fact people have quit playing potpvp because of lag, and even after reporting atleast 3-4 times(myself alone) we haven't come to a solution. I've already written this line hundred times in suggestion forums, but instead of bringing in new stuff start repairing the stuff that already exists, you bring out eggwars and you just leave it, it has so many bugs from the day it started, no one would repair them, you need to start upgrading the existing servers so they do better, instead of making new servers....
adding more admins won't work. in the situation of like 10 helpops a minute, we'd have trouble telling who's spec who, and all that chaos. we need a much revamped autoban system, and we need to make it easier for hackers to get banned, period. as of now admins cant even ban on sight, they need video evidence first. what if it was obvious but the offender made an unban request with no proof whatsoever and the admin was punished for not recording it, thus being demoted for abuse? the system right now is making it harder for admins to do their job. how about when making an unban request, players need video evidence of their own, in that very fight they got banned in, to prove they're not hacking? there are too many loopholes and difficulties in the way of being banned, as a hacker. the alternative is, of course, a huge revamp to the flawed autoban system.
They're aware of the hitbug, however, they cannot fix it. Multiple attempts have been made and they still don't know whats causing it. Tibo is busy with real life and Arjen has bigger projects to work on.(I'm assuming) The server lags whenever there are more than 80 players online, that is true, theres a hude differance when you're on when there are 80 players online and when there are 200. It has to be upgraded or somthing, but I don't think it'll happend as PotionPvP doesn't bring in a lot of donations to the table. It's reasnoble to upgrade Anni or factions first. It's not possible to do anything considering you getting matched up with people with 3 bars. You cannot expect everyone to be from Europe or have an excellent connection. The helpops are constantly spammed with somthing like "LOLNOTEVEN HACKS HUZUNI!!!!!!!!!111 BAN ADMIN USELESS PIECE OF SH*T" Now imagine getting those msg's all the time, having people spamming you in /tell and people flooding the chat, meanwhile you're trying to catcha toggler. The autoban only bans when it's 99.9% sure that the person is hacking. It does not ban for aimbot or killaura related hacks when it's not 99.9% sure because they can be triggered legit. Asy is stating that Killaura type C is 100% correct and is never false, however, that is not true. It can be triggered ligitamently as I have done it in the past and other staff like Elphios have done it as well. Admins can't be online 6 hours a day, many of them have school and they're called PlayerAdmins on PotionPvP for a reason, they can still play, They don't have to deal with hacker's all the time. At the end of the day, they are playing because it's for fun. Catching hackers all the time gets boring eventually. Theres always room for improvment, however, PotionPvP is simply not brining money in(Don't think I'm trying to make aXed look like a money whore, it's just logical that everyone would go after somthing that brings in more people in and more donations over somthing such as simple as practice pvp server). New maps are not the priority at the moment, nor are most of the stuff related with PotionPvP. But you never know, Asy might do a restart or somthing Adding on, The co-owner. ItsMeSteyn had nothing to do with PotionPvP. He owned the sky servers.
6 hours? Are you kidding me? That's 1/4 of a whole day, I can imagine half the day would be spent sleeping, eating, showering, etc., so you have roughly around 12 hours left. This means there is only 6 hours in the day for an admin to spend on their own life. I don't think anyone could handle that. I think what would work would be, lets say, 8 admins for 3 hours each. Now that would leave them 9 hours for their own life. You can't just make the admins work as hard as hell. Imagine if you had to do that.
You're right, it's unreal, it works but it's too hard to do. And if there's like, 8 admins, it would just be insane and chaotic.
To be honest, I live in Australia (NSW, even more South), and I the best I get is 3 bars. To some rich kid that would be absolutely BS but I think it's pretty damn decent, I PvP reasonably in Annihilation and KitPvP, no teleporting players whatsoever. However, 2 bars is horrible. People teleport everywhere, I can't land a hit on anyone and it takes 10 seconds to respawn in Annihilation.
Think about a free OP server with creative such as Total Freedom (not as good as GC obv). They have TONS of admins, and when I'm online there's ALWAYS at least TWO of them online. And no problem, apart from the members constantly breaking rules (griefing, and I even do that too ). I don't know exactly how many admins there are, but I'm pretty sure there's at least 20.
20 Admins? Jesus christ! I have pity for the guy(s) who has to manage that army. Let's just say we have 100 players online, and we need to keep it in order, we would need at least 10 Admins. Now, you know what's the problem with having a exorbitant amount of highly ranked staff members? Humans are not robots. You don't know what's through the guy's head, and you don't know what's he doing either. So you would have to carefuly choose the perfect guy for this job, since he will hold great power. But when there's 20 Admins (ignorant opinion incoming), it feels like they just accept any Moderator that comes asking for Admin, like it's expected for him to make something wrong.
