Contrary to what the title suggests, no one has stated that "countries" are coming back.

Erm...

Nope, 4.3 is still under development. Ever wondered what happened to countries? Muahaha
It'll be the final element to make MineRealm worthy of its 4.0 title.

I think what he means is that he's remaking them into something sort of like countries but at the same time different. That's probably why he put "s around the word countries.

Good eye... I think you may be on to something...

This is true. It's more like "do you like countries or not," something to see how a long period without them affects our opinion of them.

I am glad I made it: Assuming 14 different players voted, out of that selection, it was half and half 7/7 voting for yes/no. That is quite different to 30 yes/50 no in early January.

Here's another reason for bringing Countries back up. This poll again:

Option D
Barely vanilla. Still nothing that changes core gameplay mechanics, but with the possibility for way more options. (A country system, etc)

I have a feeling that majority lead to this poll: ("guilds" means this and "countries" means this)

So we'd rather have countries than a leveling system, which you didn't really need to participate in. And, on that poll I posted, we didn't pick Option C:

Option C
Basically vanilla. Keep the server as-is. A few extras, such as the realm system, as long as they don't change core gameplay. (The realm system is just fancy griefing protection)

Currently we have option C implemented, and most people don't want Countries. And people didn't want guilds. But I still think we want option D...

Overall, thank you Intelli for following through with that option D because I am sure most people will like what new thing is coming.

The old system wasn't bad. The only people that didn't like them, were the people who couldn't afford them, or were too lazy to get them.

Nice generalization.

I disliked countries immensely, but I ended up paying for one just so I didn't have to be counted under "Exodus" (who originally took over my realms).

There was litterally nothing wrong with it if you had one of your own. It was incredibly easy to take over most exodus realms as well, considering that they were mainly only fortified with 1-10RC

My main realms were fortified with 2500, and any ones i kinda wanted, 200.

With my own country i had nothing to worry about, at least not immediately.

My problems with the country system:

1. I don't want to have to look like I'm associated with other people, especially those I don't find pleasant, to put it in nice terms.

2. I felt like my realms and I were owned by other people, like I wasn't independent at all.

No it was like Europe, all the countries in it are seperate, but unified by being part of the EU. Similar deal with america and its states. I imagine it like states, the country as a whole (like the US) is the country, and the realms within it are its states)

If you were clever, you would have organized to ally with the owners and profit from their purchase...

3. I don't like allies.

Countries or a similar system would just stink. I didn't like it first time round and I doubt I would like it this time round. The realm system is enough in my eyes - nothing else is needed.
