    Minehut isn't what it used to be

    in General

    Posted · Edited by Reassembly

    Look, I love Minehut. I've spent more time talking to minehut players than my IRL friends. I spend more time on minehut that in real life. But there are some major issues that I feel Minehut and Superleague fail to acknowledge

    If you are an admin and you would like to respond to this, feel free to drop a comment with your thoughts. This post is not designed to instigate any arguments, this is purely so I can make my voice heard, Any servers mentioned with have their names switched to something random.

     

    Chapter One: Minehut's Ad System.

    While I think Minehut's ad system is good, in the past year or so there have been a number of blunders made by Super League. For instance, when Minehut's ad system was released to the public for the first time. It finally gave people a reason to buy ranks for those sweet Click to join messages and shorter cooldowns. But the sales minehut puts down are insane, 80% off is already a lot of money but 2 months of the sale? All that minehut has done is devalue their own ranks. I can summarise this in one saying:

    The rich get richer, the poor get poorer

    The servers that get a lot of money can buy more ranks and buy more patron accounts, but this creates a disadvantage to servers that dont sell mega p2w stuff and cannot afford as many ranks. The ad system was good until the sales, now ad sellers and botters run rampant.

     

    Chapter Two: Botters

    On the topic of botters, minehut seems to be doing nothing about ad botters. It ruins the experience for anyone who plays and makes it impossible to grow a server anymore, as well as make these pump and dump servers richer. While I have heard about a new ad systems coming soon, we dont know if this will even solve this problem at all.

     

    Chapter Three: The moderation switch

    I don't hate the new mods at all, but I feel this change has caused a disconnect between the staff and the community. Before the switch, people knew that the mods on the team were some of the most well known players and most knowledgeable. These mods could give you quick support with any issues that you encountered (that were in their ability to fix). But now, these mods haven't been trained on fixing the issues and aren't able to make that connection between community and staff happen as easily. No hate to the mods, I do respect the effort they put in to the server, but I feel this replacement removes this friendly connections between the staff and community.

     

    Chapter Four: The updates

    I'm focusing on one update, which was the panel, it has become so much more frustrating and overly complicated to use now. The concept of having your plugins and market items together is a good idea, but having to restart your server after every plugin for it to install makes the panel unbearable. This has been called out time and time again by people and there has been no information on anything to get changed. It (probably) wouldn't be a big change to make and it would make the panel so much more user friendly.

     

    Conclusion:

    Minehut just isn't what it used to be, hopefully these issues can be fixed, but It seems that Minehut has moved from Luuke's dream as a community hangout to a quick cash grab for Super League.

    Interesting. Will the plugin have configuration options in terms of punishments and the ability to edit the tolerance? Ex. You want them to be kicked the first time and banned the second. Or you have a server that causes the speed check to go off really often due to a specific movement plugin.

    Idk yet, at the moment its made for 1.8.9 duels server, which do auto perm ban
