    Good evening TotalFreedom, my name is Telephone and welcome to my TED talk.


    At present, we use a plugin called TFGuilds to manage the "guilds" (or user groups as I'd prefer to refer to them as) that users can create and join. These user groups can be allies, enemies and neutral with one another, but as of now there isn't really a reliable way to protect your land from invasion of privacy and destruction, and there isn't a way to claim land on your own. There also isn't a reliable way to manage these user groups as they can often be broken, with problems ranging from user groups not being disbanded right up to not being able to rename a group. This, is where a factions plugin comes in.


    A factions plugin would allow for easy management of these user groups (or guilds, factions, whatever you wanna call them) as they are bug tested before released and maintained by external developers. These plugins also often integrate well with most permissions solutions and offer easy land claim options which allow for the "guilds" here on TotalFreedom to easily protect their land from invasion of privacy and griefing. These plugins also offer reliable "guild" management features that our existing solution (TFGuilds) offers but cannot be reliable on, including deleting guilds and renaming guilds to say the least. Finally, a factions plugin also offers the other features we offer such as being able to set other "guilds" as an ally, enemy or neutral and it also offers private chats and a ranking system within "guilds". Anyways you get my point, I think it'd be a damn good idea to improve this place as it makes the plugins and features more reliable for users and it allows for easier code management for our development team as they no longer have to work with what has become the bug ridden mess that we call TFGuilds.


    Thank you for listening to my TED talk guys, leave a like and gimme a comment in the description, oh and don't forget to fill in that poll.

      Telesphoreo Local NAS devices? I'm pretty sure there should be a way to do that without additional software, but if there isn't then I'd highly recommend a piece of software called rclone, you can mount cloud storage drives with that so I'd also assume there'd be a way with that to get local NAS devices hooked up. I use rclone in conjunction with nircmd to auto-mount my MEGA.nz cloud drive on boot.

      matscalle Ryan IS the owner of Atlas and he's the one who hires and fires devs for this server, as well as Atlas as a whole.

      matscalle it is hard

    And you literally just contradicted what you previously said here:

      matscalle first off this isnt that hard

    Please, in the most polite way, just stop with the suggestions, including this thread. I'm sorry but you really don't know what you're talking about. Your heart's in the right place, but your head isn't. Your ideas do have potential, but not on this server due to the amount of changes to the server that would need to be done, the magnitude of some of them could also devastate what's left of TF's population (looking at you, donations, since TF has never been about that) and the amount of work it'd take overall to produce such ideas. I do think that a larger server with more devs could actually benefit from your ideas, but certainly not here. Ryan's even said himself he doesn't even have enough developers.

      matscalle Just because it's something that Atlas Media want to do, doesn't mean to say that it's not hard. No offence matscalle but I don't think you have the first clue of how to run a Minecraft server (let alone this one in particular), nor do you have any kind of idea how much work it would take to produce a server that can provide all of those gamemodes. And last on my list of reasons to object, you've COMPLETELY ignored the fact that TotalFreedom has never been a server with donations in mind, nor has it ever asked for donations off of anyone, so to suddenly implement paid features could possibly alienate users as they didn't sign up to TotalFreedom for that one bit. Anyways, object and in the kindest way possible, please stop making these suggestions because more often than not, they're just things that you yourself want to see and not what the community as a whole wants to see.

      matscalle Overall, making ragey posts demanding stuff you WANT rather than what the server actually NEEDS isn't gonna help your cause in terms of getting these suggestions implemented.

      matscalle AND A GOD DAMN STORY LINE IM DOING ONE BUT IT WONT CUT IT

    This isn't a story oriented game, nor is it a story oriented server.

      matscalle QUESTS

    This isn't roblox or some other MMORPG

    Quote

      matscalle The server doesn’t have enough content start adding stuff OK?
    Else server = ☠️

    Lack of new content doesn't translate to death of the server, lack of new players and a large reduction in playerbase is what translates to the death of the server.

      matscalle No offence but if you're a beginner, trying to help with this server's development is not yet for you. You'd be a lot better off gaining a lot experience with Java in particular and then offering your help, programming for Minecraft servers isn't an easy feat.

    This is the TotalFreedom Secret Service, your signals to find our mission parameters have now been scrambled. However, we are sorry to hear that someone downloaded "bad stuff" to your system and would recommend running ESET NOD32 2005 Antivirus to remove the "bad stuff". We thank you for your compliance with no longer leaking our mission parameters.

      RedEastWood I think he wants you to use the guillotine.... but that kind of punishment has been outlawed for decades 🤣


      matscalle Mate I'm not being a little kid, I'm having a joke. No need to get upset, I'm literally making a joke of something that was fictional anyway. Technically it's me adding fiction to fiction.
