Ok this might be a totally ludicrous but hear me out, assuming we have a reset, would it not be possible to create a /warp storage area, (which could be edited into new world) where all player could deposit there most priced possessions in a named chest, (no shulker boxes) where you would be allowed to take say 10 items or whatever the amount decided to a new world, access to the storage area would only be granted after getting to a certain rank ie apprentice, that way you still have to earn your items back and not just get them, there may have to be a list of forbidden items ie you can’t have a stack of beacons but a stack of diamonds is ok, I don’t know, I know this would be a bit of a headache for staff to check them all, before the move but hey it’s just an idea, so people aren’t so bitter about losing there stuff. I personally am not to bothered either way reset or expansion, I have no large time consuming builds in the world so a reset wouldn’t be all that bad personally, hope that all sort of makes sense I'm for sure against resetting rank. There is no problem with ranks right now, the problem is the world itself. "Well we can all start off on the same level together" <-- some players I'm sure. Yea ok 3 years, you were for nothing but a handful of items you have earn back. That is a slap to the face to the long time players. If we reset, keeping ranks and keep inv/echest is what should be happening. Same with things like claim blocks. We EARNED those blocks. Some people even PAID for those blocks. Also who would have to go through those chests to make sure everyone follows the rules? Surely you wouldn't think staff would sit there going through all the chests. Thats like going through everyn's inv/echest. cant be done, wont be done. Players who leave and come back to a new world without know about the reset will at least have their inv/echest of things to start anew. Much like I've said to the rest of staff when discussing 1.14: If we do reset, I want my things. I worked for all of my things. I'm like a dragon and it's hoard. I need my thingzez. I did my time. 3 years of it. in Azkaban! |

I agree with Kitty about the claim blocks (Which people paid for and donation perks).
I even don't bother that much about ranks (Sure you got some more sethomes in the beginning).
But what i'm against is keeping inventory.
Sure we (Yes me to) worked our ass of for it.
But i think if we do reset it must be as equal for everyone in the beginning as possible.
For me it's hard to get my 3 stacks of dia blocks back to.
But i think i'm proud if i archieve it again!

I am still relatively new to Simplex. However, I do not have much built. I was in awe to find out upon joining the server that the overworld is three years old, and has been expanded twice. This intrigued me, as many other servers reset at some point.
I would not mind a world reset, because I don’t have much built, besides farms. I have only been mining for materials, and I have just started to create a small storage room. I don’t think I will be building anything major anytime soon. I have started to look for a large island that is not located near my base, to start a project there.
If the world does reset, I would highly recommend that players will have the ability to retain all possessions, from items to claim blocks. I have donated for claim blocks on this server, and several have, like Kitty mentioned above. It would be useless if those were reset, since in retrospect, that money has gone to waste. It’s rare that I donate real money to servers, and I would be genuinely upset if they were gone.

Just want to put my two cents here...
I have basically completely stopped playing Simplex. Maybe once a week I hop on to restock my shop or update my sign, but that's it. I've been playing 1.14 and I gotta say, I can't go back to 1.13. The reason I'd want a "world wipe" or a "reset" is because it wouldnt feel right expanding the border a couple thousand blocks and then fighting for pillager outposts, new villages, etc. I know there's a lot of space, but I'd honestly much rather scoot on over to a 1.14 fresh world than keep this old one. I agree with Kitty & Meehan both, but I'm not anywhere near godlike Veil or mega farms, I'm alright saying goodbye to my old builds and starting again with new journeys people and experiences. It'd be fun to make some of the first public farms for people.
Anyways, I probably wont be on much until we update or when we reset IF we reset. Simplex holds a special place in my heart for some reason and I can never seem to leave it entirely.

I’m in for a world reset, because I have absolutely nothing to do on this server anymore.

Hypothetically- In the event that we reset the map and artificially preserve everyone's wealth and some community builds, are sun and moon district going to be some of the community builds that are carried over?

The only thing i do is run around and update my shop sign and talk to people so i wouldn't care if it resets or not. Maybe 0,0 could look good this time and not bad
Oh also make sure to stay hydrated

I would not want to carry over any of the two districts. I want to be able to start from scratch and make one big district over having two smaller ones. We can rebuild all the best features of the district and build new things like an auto depository for when we need to unload demo skulkers into the hall of lost shops. I'd also like a bigger inner ring, and the power to build in the nether which isn't possible right now because of other players claims. |

I believe along with the community, Simplex's claim to fame is that it doesn't/hasn't reset yet- for over 3 years! This statement made me want to punch you through the screen; a sensation that I haven't really fully been able to ignore for the ~4.5 years (correct me if it's longer, it probably is) that I've known you. Simplex's claim the fame is it's simplicity, the Simplex is great because it is the only good SMP server that's out there, really. It doesn't compromise, the owner and staff are actually helpful, and thank goodness there's no MCMMO. That being said, you are right in the sense that if we're doing a reset, I'd expect it to be a full-on reset. That way, no new player has less of an advantage as the people who've been playing forever. I think this reset would also help bind the community together again. Sometimes it feels like the server's developed its own little set of cliques, and that gets in the way of old players and new players co-operating together. If we had a fresh start it'd sort of force us all to co-operate and trade and build towns together, and establish some level of trust or connection where that previously had not existed. You're on point when it comes to the need of a fresh start. And the point you reinforced of mine about the new players having to travel. Sure you could tweak with the wild TP a tad so the new players could explore new land, but we can all agree that it'd be much more fun for them (and for us) if there wasn't any travel at all. If we had a new map. I had forgotten that we hadn't had a reset since 1.9 as well, man is that a long time! Intriguing stuff in this post, really. |

Simplex started on April 4-6th 2016, so CPT is correct when he says 3 years.
But here is my opinion; While I have spent countless hours and days working on my builds, I would be fine with a reset. (Given we do keep some community builds and claim blocks along with ranks) When I first came to Simplex I could not build anything bigger than a small house that was good looking. Now 2 years later I have built things bigger and better than I ever could have imagined. I would be fine with loosing it. Ya it would be sad, but imagine all that free real estate with a reset. As it sits I would love to build huge builds, but because I would like to keep everything close by, I am being surrounded by claims. Some of which have players that have not been on in over 2.5 years. A reset is gonna happen one day or another. We could update the current world to 1.14 and have to deal with all the broken iron farms, crop farms, and all the other things that the new villagers would break in 1.14. Or we could reset and start fresh with what we brought over.

I see! If you speak of the map reset Ken, then that is very good news to me! It's a fresh breathe and change is good sometimes, the lack of change is what destroys more often than we think. This map reset will bring a lot of fun memories, rebuilding what we have done before and making new memories and so forth. Grand stuff indeed! And yes Choo, I just read Mojang's words on 1.14.3; it appears that we'll have to wait until 1.14.4 hahah. A grand shame, I quite like this update. Again, thanks for the news Ken. I understand where your coming from and that does make sense for a fresh start. Personally i wouldnt like a reset due to all the hours ive spent making my mapart. although it would be good to redo my base as long as i could keep the maps |
