Why is this server even being hosted? For what, the three active people on it? I've been on it long enough to know that is about the entire population, other than someone who -might- spend a few days before leaving, or jump on once a month. You're just wasting money. Better to host something else. Especially when you then threaten to ban someone for something rather harmless. I didn't do the crime, but if you banned any one of the three active members, you'd just be putting a bullet in your foot. The only people that have even showed interest and stayed of late, is because of those people, because no mods, or any other administration has put a moment of effort into the game lately.
As a big finger to the 'Gods' I've broken your rules and given you something to ban someone for. I just want to make sure it is very clear it was all ME, so you don't ban anyone else. I killed the wall of flesh, and I made it so no newcomers can actually get in the game. Enjoy having two active players now, and I get the feeling they might not stay. But who knows.
Tsuene, and Silvis, hope you guys have fun, and I apologize to you only, for being selfish and fucking up the world.
Resolved-:3
PS: I am aware of how immature that was, so feel free to rub it in my face.
What I came here to add however, was you should probably fire all your inactive mods, and make Tsuene a mod. As he is constantly playing the game, and helpful to everyone. He also gives a damn.
Before the torrent of abuse comes, I'd just like to point out that though his actions may have been rash to say the least, in my opinion his point is still extremely valid. He was one of the only three people on the server actually doing something, and the only one creating any tangible sort of conflict. And yet, as he says, bans are threatened when a mod comes on after several months of inactivity on their own server and sees the lore progressing without their permission.
I mean seriously.
What the fuck.
What gear did you have when you killed the wall of flesh?
Necro Armor, and Mythical Demon Scythe.
Laughing really hard.
I hope you know we're hosted for free, so we're not losing much. Caphori in it's initial days was much better than its current shape, so you missed out on that. I hope you feel happy destroying other people's creations simply because you don't know how to have fun in any other way, but I've already spoken to Exile about putting up a Starbound server when it's up. We already have the community and players from Caphori, and I would assume most of them will also transfer to our Starbound server when it's up. I can only imagine how many people we'll have online then, hehe.
I wouldn't say free, i do have to pay for it. But Caphori is hosted at no extra expense because we rent a box.
Money monster approaches!

I really wonder how we could bring back that feeling. I mean sure, things have changed a lot. A LOT.
But I think that the original "Caphori" became so amazing is because of the spirit of the people who put their ideas and work into it.
Like Isaki's Potion Shop, Kain Sandin's Device, Kami's Castle (that was constantly griefed due to the lava in the walls) My Bridge+ Workshop... That is what Caphori is missing the most. We need more interesting Players, and a community that is willing to set the stage for the "Old Caphori" we all cherished to come back.
I remember the good ol' days too James :( remember the floating island/base in which you, me and a few others were living in an attempt to escape the demons or what ever the reason was to us changing the map. Those were the fun days. I remember trying to get that silver armour, bartering and trading with people to get enough bars to make it, and finally after a quite long time I managed to get enough for silver armour and a silver broadsword. I was very happy at that point :)
Now though everyone is running around with shadow armour and all their other high tier armour and weapons and no one seems to ever be satisfied with simple tier stuff now.
Hell when I first joined Caphori high tier meant gold armour and only a few people seemed to have it due to the materials being hard to find or rare.
Lots of people roleplayed back then on Caphori to be honest, I'm not sure what happened really, we started to get trolls quite a lot after those days who would destroy the spawn town and area.
One of the biggest problems with Caphori is the attitude and size of the playerbase, there aren't many who play anymore and some of those that do play are trolls/griefers/fail roleplayers/power gamers/ drama whores etc.
Hopefully when Starbound comes out we'll get more roleplayers due to it being a new game and having lots of interesting and awesome ways to roleplay with.
(480 hours spent on Terraria and about 90%+ of that was spent on Caphori, so I've been around through good and bad to be honest. )

It's what happens when gear > rp. Caphori's "gear" and resources that you find needs to be tweaked\edited to be limiting so people dont get all that stupid epic shit.
I havn't been on for like 4 days because its finals week, if this guy knew anything about our player base we have more than 3 people its just that some of us are dealing with REAL LIFE at times I know that sounds far fetched but holy shit
As I say.
WAIT TILL STARBOUND DAMNIT.
Then ccomplain.

Also excuse me for double posting but I reccomend a map reset. (Possibly character rset) and stricter rules on mary sue and stupidity.
Seriously, I was a bit freaked out when I saw the world almost half corrupted and another mod telling me that it wasn't approved. And a little inactivity is okay, it picks up around the summer because people have school. Including me, I'll admit I haven't been on a lot, but it's due to being overwhelmed with real life.
Now, what happened is I freaked out at first. But I had calmed down. I wanted to rationally talk and was even going to officially approve this thing myself.
Now we have to ban you though, and your offense can be easily erased by just booting a backed up version of the map. All you've done is get yourself banned.
Hope you enjoyed destroying peoples work and fun, and destroying your own story line in the process.
Why, Mister Anderson?
I feel sad that I fell asleep moments before DarkPerin was enraged, but c'est la vie. I so hoped to nagotiate everyone out of this mess, especially after Aetherin and I cleaned up the mess that made matter snap. Well, anyhow, I'll be glad to continue my work in Caphori and I'm looking forward to Starbound. Hope to see ya'll around in-game.
I never had intentions of coming back in the first place. There are no rules against spreading corruption. Mind you, I didn't spread it as far as what you saw. Wasn't me, but the fact that you would threaten to ban someone over that, is just petty. So I enjoyed being petty back, especially when the mods aren't around to begin with. Most I've seen them on in the last month is maybe two or three times, for about five minutes each. I've been told there were supposed to be events, though none I could make, as I do have a life, but I heard none of them happened anyways.
And I didn't destroy anyone's work. The world might be a little more difficult, but it was never hard to begin with, even with terrible gear.
Glad I killed the map. Resources were drained, and it was dead anyways. Maybe now, Tsuene and Silvis can have something fresh, and new.
Finally, if you are to busy to do things, you should step down, at least temporarily, and turn control over to someone else. It is called being responsible. One of those things you should try in 'life'.
I was the one who noticed this and notified a mod. I wouldn't have been so freaked if it wasn't for the fact that where my room was atm was now covered in corruption...It wouldn't have been as bad if it would have stayed where it was suppose to. Killing the wall of flesh not only made more of it, but made it spread faster. That is why it is in the rules NOT to kill the wall of flesh unless it is a planed event. It was all the way from the right side of the map and spread all the way past the jungle and way to close to the town, so more then half the map.
Also a note with that, the weapon you used to kill it....how did you get it since Mythical doesn't even show until you kill the WoF. Wouldn't that mean bring in a weapon from another world? Another rule broken? (unless giving to you by a mod, if so then that is another story)
Still the mods try what they can, its been busy and hard on everyone here lately from school to work and more. Still rules are rules, they are posted and your suppose to read them before starting. The event/story seem great and I would love to take part in it, but it should have been asked about on the forms first. That way it could have been fixed up and nothing would have spread.

All modifiers are accessible as long as you have access to the goblin tinkerer... even if you don't, if you're lucky enough that the weapon comes with a particular modifier.
Aw geez, reading this makes me feel kinda bad for being so very inactive lately. I just want you all to know I really am busy as all heck right now in real life, so I'm reeeeally sorry for being gone, but I swear i'll come back as soon as I can, really! >A<
d-uh james
you forgot about abby's potions
I wonder what was her secret ingredient
Also DarkPerin if you're asking why this server exists, let tell you. According to existentionalist philosophy, everything is an accident. So you're an accidental child too mate. No wonder you fell to such low trolling level.
Quote from: DarkPerin on 25-04-2013

There is a rule against Killing the Wall of Flesh. I'll also update the rules to include creating problems for beginning players, such as extended corruption and pitfalls.

Be lucky that it was a threat. I would have permanently banned you without a second thought.
I used to be more laid back in such things, people like you have made me more... Adamant in my position as a Moderator.

I'll deal with this eventually. My best mod has been working on college finals. He had a reason to be absent.

We have the "Tower Event" Which had been postponed a few times due to Time Zone problems.

At least i am thankful for this. The rest can be easily fixed.
I will also take your "Advice" and make some harder zones for Higher Tier players.

I have been considering making "Shipments" of materials. I honestly think that if limited material was presented, things might be better off. This would also go with the "Merchant Guild" Idea that i have previously presented. I will attempt to add more into the Map I'm building.

I did. I turned to the_grub, and asked him to take over for me due to some minor problems in my life. Had i known that he was going through finals, I would have tried something else. Oh Well.
For all that is is worth, you didn't mess
everything up; and everything may have turned out better than expected. I will consider some of the finer points you have made, and attempt to make this Server better by any means possible. As for your "Ban"... I'm completely unsure yet. I will need a bit of time to make my decision. I don't expect for you to show any remorse for what you have done, nor do I expect you to return. But everything should be taken into consideration.
I probably still don't plan on returning, but you actually replied to all of that rather well. I apologize partially for what I did, but if it does bring change, I think it is for the better.
Waving the banhammer around is the only thing I really do not like. I believe it should always be reserved for those that do things and are not remorseful about it. Such as myself. It puts them in place, if they can change at all. But the spreading of the corruption so far, was a simple mistake, and if either of the two I'd been playing with the last month had been banned, I'd have lost all interest in the game anyways.
A merchant guild would be a great idea as well. It would help control resources, and make lower tier prevalent again. Those that still know where to look, would still be able to find resources anyways.
And as for Mythical, just thought I'd mention that you can easily get it pre-hardmode. Demon Scythe is one of the cheapest items to re-forge in the game. Especially for being so powerful. If I break rules, I'll gladly admit to them. The only other rule I broke the entire time, was building a house far to large, but it was way outside of town. Far away, and on a sky island I found. Mostly, I did so out of boredom.

I could say the same about Minecraft, but I'm being nice and staying on topic, perhaps you should too?
Certain rules were put into place because of people simply hogging up too much space. The house rules are more-so like guidelines that we'd prefer not to have over-stepped.

Why the fuck do admins of other HGN servers feel the need to rail on the other servers they aren't apart of? It happened between Fallout and SRP, Fallout and Crussaria, Crussaria and SRP, and now Minecraft and Terraria.

Turned off hardmode, got rid of corruption, removed molten ore from spawn. That was short lived Perin
I'd like to say, by the way, that in the event that Davek is banned (which apparently hasn't been decided yet) he has left all he owns to me, as an ally of the cult of Cthulhu. So, whether or not he gets banned... no looting please.
Ah? So I can get back to work now? Alright, hahaha...
I can vouch that as long as 1 player wants Caphori, it will remain up, regardless of how popular starbound (Eternia) is. Just keep playing and have fun.
And lets not forget a GIGANTIC update is coming up, so everyone will likely come hurtling back once they hear, right? I cant wait to see everyone on the server together, it'll be so great~! (^3^)y

Well, I'm going to go against my own belief and allow you to still play on Caphori. I have done this once before... And I still regret it to this day. Whether or not my faith is misplaced, I do hope that next time something is wrong; you attempt to get the attention of a mod. I check my PMs daily, so i try not to miss anything.
If anyone has any objections to my decision, please speak now.
