Flight Rising Community Minecraft SMP Server!
(FR CSMP for short! Wooh, that's a mouthful!)
Welcome Minecraft players new and old to the offical thread of a new community server I will be hosting! Together we will set goals for ourselves, work together to accomplish them and create a sense of community along the way.
--What is this?--
This server is running the currently latest of version of Minecraft (1.8) and has very little game changing plugins - all in the name of keeping the experience as close to the Vanilla game as possible. Common multiplayer commands such as /sethome and /home do not exist here, creating a new level of challenge.
I, the owner, will even be playing in survival. Nothing will be spawned and everything will be done legit.
--What are the goals?--
The goals we set for ourselves are to be decided entirely by the community as a whole, not just me! Of course we aren't to be completely bound to one path, but I encourage everyone to work together towards the end goals.
--What about server-wide contests?--
Idea courtesy of @Degari. Depending on my schedule and how many members we have, contests will very much be a thing! Monthly official contests are more likely at this point in time, but users are free to host their own contests as they wish. If I'm notified of it, I'll even put it up here on this post should the host desire!
VVVVVVVVVVV
--Rules! Please read!--
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Follow basic Minecraft rules! (No griefing, stealing, hacking, etc.)
PVP IS enabled, however it must be used responsibly. Both sides must agree to a PVP match. Please do not randomly attack or harm players on purpose! If this is abused, I will temporarily disable it and find a workaround.
Be polite and mature. Treat others like you'd want to be treated. No harrasment or bullying of any kind will not be tolerated. We're working towards a common goal together!
Have fun! Not so much of a rule, more of a guideline haha.
--I read the rules, how do I join?--
Joining is simple! Fill out a short whitelist application and post it here. You will be pinged once I have looked over it. If accepted I will either send you the IP via PMs or over Skype if you provided one.

FAQ wrote:
Q: Will there be mods/are there mods?
A: It is extremely unlikely I will be bringing mods into the picture, as it limits who can play on the server.
Q: Is there grief protection?
A: Yes! I have taken a few precautions such as block logging, just in case.
Q: Any other plugins?
A: Nope. I'm aiming for an experience as close to the vanilla game as possible.
Q: Are you looking for moderator/admins?
A: Not at the moment. This may change however as the server either grows or my schedule changes. You will have to earn your spot as a Moderator or Admin, however!
Q: So there's a Skype group?
A: Yes! A group where members can talk off server, plan in-server collaborations and just chit-chat!
Q: How can I help?
A: Participate. Tell your friends. Spread the word! I'll be covering all server costs, so I will not be accepting donations now or ever (most likely).

So I'm aware there's already a FR based Minecraft server, but it occurred to me that I have yet to see an MC server on here that wasn't.
So, I'm going out on a whim here and see how much interest I can garner!
I was thinking it'd be cool to have a server that was community and teamwork oriented. A server where we help each other out and work together towards a common goal (like beating all the bosses together or any other goals we may set for ourselves).
We would find a good place to settle down then build a town from the ground up. Things would go from there. Depending on how many people we got on board, specific roles could be assigned to people to suit their specific strong point(s). Roles could vary, such as being tasked with managing a community farm to acting as a blacksmith of sorts. Not saying one would be restricted to doing only the activity their role entails, but it would just be something you would specialize in and where people know if they need a certain task done they can come to you to get it done.
Depending on what people want, I was thinking we could start out vanilla style- aka no real game changing plugins; namely plugins that allow you to use commands such as /sethome and /home. Without things like these it would create a new level of challenge, especially for expedition type trips.
So yeah! This is what I got so far. I'm completely open to hearing suggestions for this! After all, this will be heavily community oriented. Should we actually go through with this, I'll be able to host and get things set up.
Thoughts?
