Cannonbolt101 Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 So I recently learned that free servers have an 8 hour time limit? I find that a bit annoying, but not the end of the world. The problem is the server is kicking me after only 2 and a half hours Was I mistaken about the time limit? or is something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannonbolt101 Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 You've said 8 hours only a week ago. Also, even if the limit was only 4 hours, my server was shut down after only 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannonbolt101 Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 the screenshot shows it was only active for 2 hours and 38 minutes, and the 30 minute warning was already given by that point. We were kicked off at exactly 3 hours, 2 minutes, and 54 seconds. And no one was on the server earlier in the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckyProgrammer Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Hm I'm not sure then. It might've been a one time bug or something.

WaffleMaster888 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Why is there a time limit? It makes playing much less enjoyable and definitely doesn't make me more likely to pay, it just makes me more likely to switch to another free server host. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The time limit was introduced because giving out servers for free isn't exactly the most profitable business tactic. 1 No rank - 2017-2021 Minehut Tester - 2021-2023 Minehut Volunteer Moderator - 2023-Current Report a player/server: Report Player / Server Create a support ticket: Submit a request Did I help you?

SolarStephen Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Hey there! Players being kicked from their server could mean a number of things, however the most likely cause is due to the server crashing, if the server experiences a crash all of it's users are kicked from that server until it is rebooted. However, if this was not the case then you might want to create a support ticket, I will attach the link below to the support ticket website, a member of our support team will be able to assist you further.

ball_muncher Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 you guys really gotta fix the time limit, your whole customer base hates it and misses the old minehut we used to play on after a long day at school. At least put it back up to 8 hours at the bare minimum so those of us who like to take our time with stuff can do that. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexWentBoom Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 "The time limit was introduced because giving out servers for free isn't exactly the most profitable business tactic." So it was introduced without the playerbase in thought and only for an even bigger profitable gain as there are already other optional subscription plans for people who make servers with above 10 players, makes sense, should've seen it coming I suppose, I've had a server with a few friends now for over a year, I've loved it up till now, somehow it feels demoralizing with this new time limit and I'm sure I'm not alone in that. But it was fun while it lasted, will probably still stick around, as we've put alot of time and effort onto the server and it'd be a waste, just won't be the same I suppose. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player base was in mind, most likely. It was either this or Minehut running out of money and shutting down.

BirdOftheBlack Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Yes i agree too the daily limit is a problem but 8 hours is a good and reasonable time please make it back to 8 70% is saying the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z0inckz Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Me and my friend have been playing for only and hour and a half, but the time limit is apparently "4 hours" we we're really disappointed and bummed out when this happened we decided to end it the moment we saw this pop up (more like 5 minutes later, because I was confused as to why there was a time limit now) anyways, i genuinely hope they bring back the old servers or what used to be 8 hours of gameplay.

damnnn Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 in the span of a few months the limit has gone from 8 to 4 now to 2 its disgusting how money hungry minehut are only allowing for 2 hours on a free server like are u serious. if they have been able to run servers for years with no problems but in the span of months have lowered the time limit that much its just greedy. just a sad money grab. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minehut loses a lot of money from free servers. Maybe instead of complaining you get less free stuff, be happy you can get the service for free.
