Instead of the random nightly Mist effect triggering global PVP, have it trigger increased server difficulty for the duration of the Minecraft night.

I feel this would keep the intention of the Mist (to increase the excitement and survival aspect of the server) without as much potential for hard feelings among players.

I am very glad to see we are in agreement, Jen! :)

Honestly, the mist was such a terrible idea in my opinion, and I can not even fathom how people enjoy it. However, I do support an increase in difficulty surviving on the server, so this is a perfect compromise.

And one more thing to consider: I thought the point of Minecraft was to have fun, not to survive...

There is no point to Minecraft. That in-and-of-itself is the entire point of Minecraft. The game is what you yourself make of it. There is no objective, there is no central point to it. You just play.

I agree, but I believe the point of all video games is to have fun, so a video game without a central point is automatically assumed to have its central point be to have fun.

Although I'm not a big fan of pvp, I'm also not the central authority for deciding what is or isn't fun. Neither are you. There are people who enjoy standing in one spot while clicking the left mouse button furiously.

I still don't get whats so bad about the mist. All you have to do is to watch at a clock (or use /time) and keep an eye on the chat. If you live a bit outside you maybe dont even need to do that.

Give this feature some time to grow, it's just a few days old.

Minecraft itself is a sandbox game - there isnt "the one right way" to play it. Minerealm otherwise, is a SURVIVAL server.

You make an excellent point, but I believe you misinterpreted what I meant. I never stated that PvP is not fun nor did I claim any authority in my opinion.

I was merely opposing the Mist because many people claim MineRealm is about survival, rather than fun. Since the Mist adds more emphasis to survival and in my opinion takes away from the fun of the game, then it is not an ideal feature.

Here is an example of a very respectable player claiming the point of MineRealm is survival. I don't think that has much merit, seeing the point of MineRealm is to have fun and interact with an impeccable community. And if I somehow misinterpreted the point of my favorite server, then every single player that plays for the community has as well.

If you still believe MineRealm's main point is survival, then why the heck aren't you pressing for a 24/7 apoc server?

That being said, I feel like we are straying a bit from the main purpose of this thread. If you want to respond to this, then I am respectfully requesting you send me a private message.
