Map Corruption and what this means for you?
-ok so let me give you an insight into our servers weather conditions. Our server is located in Southern California in the Murrieta Valley (riverside county) Summer weather get anywhere from 100-130 degrees, The server being in a Residential area every house is blasting there A/C which causes power outages and surges.

Surges can KILL a computer, we have learned this in the past when a power surged kill a processor back when the server was ran by H31ix, it has also killed a harddrive. But in most recent time i have done a couple little things to stop this from happening. adding surge protectors that will cover damages Financially.

Saddly we did have a power Outage and the Surge protected Saved the CSS server -_- but not he Minecraft Server. Minecraft being as sensitive as it is, the Files got Damaged (iconomy and essentials) essentials is your home, stuff and iconomy is your money. but another major thing that gets corrupted easily is the MAP, we are able to fix the maps but when we fix the maps there is a strange thing that occurs A new map is underlines with the old one, if anyone Noticed there maybe random spikes of land are made were chunks had to be regenerated.

ok cool so we were able to keep the map and just a few things got dammanged?
answers NO

there is 2 maps running in 1 map so we have to Regenerate land the second map gets moved on top of it...if you looked at spawn area lately it needs to be regenerated...badly

So here's what going to happen
me and other admins have been working on constructing another map and were going to faze the old on out, there will be a multiverse portal that will bring you to the old map, we will bring certain things back that are requested. the old map will BE DELETED SEPTEMBER 14TH

How are we going to prevent this?
i bought a 40 minute power back up for the server should cover any power outage and we should be able to catch the power outage if its longer then a few minutes and safely turn off the server to prevent any damage.

Goals for Admins and mods
- get players Active on the forums!
- get players on the TF2 server TF2 IS FUCKEN FREE!
- Friday i want all admins to be on to discuss the Current Advanced builders

TF2 server changes
-made map rotation time 30 minutes
-going to add more maps to the map vote

hope this clarify things
