Greetings; I'm a Moderator applicant and donator, so I thought I would share some of my ideas for decreasing lag and making optimal playing time (without interruption, of course.) So, a problem many players have been complaining about, is the fact that the server seems to kick off all or some players randomly, forcing them to head back to their portals. I believe it is a reset or auto-save functionality, I would advise MyM staff to try and fix this problem. Another problem is intense lag, in the server I am referring to (B-Team 2), players constantly have to write: "Test" in the chat to make sure they haven't crashed. This is a MAJOR problem, for the lag can sometimes cause games to crash, items to be forever lost, and computers to malfunction. I've said my piece, so have a wonderful day. -Lord_Vantus
1: tell them to try /ping, 2: the lag overall is unavoidable due to the fact that the servers have been up for awhile, and 3: tell them to ask co-admins to look at their base and see what their laggiest thing that can be taken out or compacted is
about the auto save part sure you get lag but think of it this way: you get lag for maybe 10 seconds out of 10 mins of playtime, but this makes sure that if there isn't any roleback or deletion of progress. roleback can affect you a lot because if there is no autosave or they are less frequent it could cost you a lot of progress if there is a massive crash for whatever reason. and the one item that you just made that took you an hour just got deleted most people would hate that, and the 10 seconds of lag that you get help with that. in short form its 10 seconds that you just sit there and wait it out, so that progress will not get deleated. and to be honest its really easy to get use to.
@chugga_fan Yes, although things CAN be done. Machines which would cause too much lag or such could be banned or limited, for example. Lag is an odd thing, something always can be improved, no matter how small.
They already are, we cant ban / limit everything in the game, and everything that does something in minecraft can cause lag in large enough amounts. So all the worst ones are banned/limited
