We should reset like in about a week or two, whenever the aquatic update comes out. Reasons for doing so? Turtles. That's it. Expanding the border is boring just reset. |

We don't need a new map for turtles to be on the server. |

I was contemplating making a post about this but I guess someone already beat me to it. Although a reset has already been scheduled somewhere in October, doing so would prove futile and backwards. This is for the reason of the massive new content update, 1.13, coming out on July 18th. This update unlike previous others, brings drastic new changes to the terrain and environment, as ocean biomes are now completely re-done with a multitude of new additions (i.e. corral reefs, tropical fish, kelp, shipwrecks, new ocean biomes, icebergs, turtles, etc...). Since announced back somewhere in november, many players have been eagerly anticipating this update as it brings refreshing things to the game and increases the possibilities of things they can do. To add, as survival servers in 1.12.2 progress, like ours, many players have already exhausted the number of things they can do as the update is old and has been out for about a year now. Thus they have taken a lesser interest into minecraft, and in the case of mush, the server itself. Reseting to the 1.13 would attract old and new players alike back to the server, as there would now be a fresh start on a giant new update, giving players initiative to play minecraft, and subsequently mush again. On the contrary, if a reset were to happen in October the server would not see such a spike in player activity as in July, due to the update being three months old and many would be busy with school or their everyday lives, more-so than people would be right now due to summer vacation for most.To add, I doubt any players are taking up major projects at the moment, such enough for them to delay the server to reseting in October. The majority of players are most likely just doing whatever and wouldn't mind a reset, especially for 1.13 as it would give them initiative to actually play the server. In conclusion, having an early reset for the 1.13 can only reap positive benefits for the server. It would increase the player activity of the server (adding on to the unbanathon), it would give players an initiative to play again, and it would add a new and refreshing map for people to explore all alike. Reseting in October would prove nothing for the progress of the server. |

+1 I would like that new world with new stuff. Also I want to try something new but I'm waiting for reset to do it so the sooner the better. |

+1. 1.13 features new terrain generation and biomes (cold and warm oceans, coral) which would be nice to see in Mushroom Co. |

If you're waiting for a new map to build something on the server, you could be waiting forever. There isn't a map reset scheduled in October, map resets are never scheduled. We've never reset the map for minecraft updates so I don't know why we'd start now. There are quite a few things that still need to happen on this map before a map reset is even considered:1. World border expansion - woodland mansions discovered 2. New spawn 3. Map reset vote There's no way the map can be reset in the next week or so because we haven't even held a vote for it, and the vote needs to last a few weeks at least. |

Can you explain precisely why we need a world border expansion and a new spawn in order to do a reset ? Also, let's just vote. A lot of players are actually not building or lost interest right now because they are waiting for the reset and for some other reasons, such as: - The world being crowded with random builds here and there; - The end is completely raided; - Rare builds are impossible to find : Mansions, Ocean monuments, (again) End cities etc. Most active players who talk about it would enjoy a reset in a near future (I'm not gonna specify any date) and we would have a clear idea with an official vote. |

I think that a map reset would actually be most suitable right now, with the influx of previously banned players coming back online - it'll give them something fresh to work with, and will set the playing board equal to everyone else. Most players who are active in the world that we are currently in have reached the limit on what they have the capability to do. If you don't want to listen to me ramble on forever about it, then make a vote. Let's see who wants a reset, and who's opposed to one. |

I already said it's too late to hold a vote. The 1.13 update comes out in 2 days right? We need at least a couple of weeks to get enough responses. And as I already mentioned, there are still plenty of things left to do on this map, namely expand the world border and find a woodland mansion. One hasn't been found yet because they're all beyond the border. An end reset could be potentially considered - or the world border could be expanded there as well if it's not already at +/-20k.@Maxbass the precise reason is because it would be a waste. If this map still has things left to do on it, there's no need for a new one. Some players may have prepared a lot in the past few months in order to go on the journey to be the first to find a woodland mansion. If the map is reset, all their hard work will be for nothing. I have said previously in the news articles here, as well as in forum posts, that the world border will be expanded. Don't you think people might feel cheated if I promised to do something and then it never happens because the map is reset? My points already addressed the ones you raised: - new spawn provides new land so no more crowding with random builds everywhere - world border expansion provides access to new structures like ocean monuments, woodland mansions and end cities. |

In response to Luigi,Firstly, I doubt that anyone here is asking that we reset right after the 1.13 update drops, but rather somewhere in the following weeks, just no where near October, due to the fact that many people would get bored of still being stuck on a map from 1.12 and would prefer a freshly reset one for 1.13. Secondly, why is it necessary that certain things get done before the map is reset. Why is it necessary that we expand the map when its most likely no one will go out of their way to build in the newly expanded border. You mention expanding the map will allow players to find woodland mansions, ocean monuments, etc..., but does it really require three whole months for that process to take place? Do you really think the entire community will just go on some competitive hunt to find and explore every single thing beyond the newly expanded border? The likelihood of that happening is marginal and the actual outcome would probably be just a smaller group of people exploring for a day or two then going back to their bases and spending the rest of the time talking in chat or running around. You do not seem to realize that a large percentage of the playerbase, if not most, have already accomplished what they set out to do this map, whether it be build a nice base, get good gear, explore a bit, etc... The only reason they might be still active is due to the community (i.e. talking in chat, playing games with other players, etc...). The amount of people actually using the map for it's purpose (to actually play the game), is minimal, and opening up the border for people to explore will become repetitive and monotone within two days. To add, who's really out here preparing for months, just waiting for you to open the border so they can find a woodland mansion and do whatever with it. If so, its most likely once again a marginal percentage of the overall playerbase on the server, and delaying a map reset for them would be cruel to the majority of the playerbase. In addition, what's the purpose of a new spawn at this stage in the server, there's already a large chunk of unused land in the current spawn for anyone to take. If people were truly set out on building at spawn they would use that current land. The process of designing and putting a new spawn in place would probably also take several weeks, meaning the life-span of said spawn would be a little over two months. What would be the purpose of putting in the effort to design a brand-new spawn, only to reset the entire map literally two months later. That rather seems like a waste of effort for the person/people who made it in the first place. All of these so called "things that need to be done before the server resets" all seem futile and time/effort wasting. These would only dig the server to a deeper hole than it is already sitting in at the moment. The hole is already so deep, that you received money for a global unban to take place in order to try and revive the server from its current state. Would not waiting till October to reset the map also not contradict with your jewish practices? The sooner you reset after 1.13, the more old and new players you attract alike. New players will pour in as they look for a peaceful, small community server to play the new update on, while older players would also comeback as there would be a new map with a new update to play on a server they're familiar with. Would this not increase the chance of you making more income from the server? To conclude, expanding the world border is useless, the amount of people actually going to full on explore for mansions or monuments and shit is marginal. Making a new spawn would also be futile since the map would literally reset two months after it was made, wasting time and effort. Finally, reseting as soon as possible after 1.13 drops would be beneficial due to the subsequent boost in playerbase and boost in luigi's wallet. |

As soon as you announce a reset or speak of one its an instant L. People instantly stop engaging for fear of wasting their time. Please only even use the R word when it is imminently upon us. Preparing the player base for a reset in 3 months time will not help the server. We saw this last reset when people were screaming for one. |

@Luigi Thanks for the answer. I'm not sure if not exploring some things would lead to a waste of the server. I feel like expanding the borders would mostly lead in an Elytra hunt for some players and some explorations for others.From what i saw on the server, i think that a considerable amount of people don't want the reset right now for different reasons. So let's wait a bit. If we go for a proper expansion that encourages the players to have a good distance to explore, that'll fix the "New players looking for a 1.13 server" problem mentionned by some players. |

I still think we should do a world reset bit whateverTo solve the problem of "new players looking for a 1.13 server" we can just expand the world boarder and then put new spawn inside of the generation So when the new player joins it will look like a 1.13 server |

Karbs, I don't know where you got the idea that the map is resetting in three months but that's absolutely false. As pheo said, I think we'd all appreciate it if these rumors didn't continue to spread. There is no map reset planned at all - October last year was just the last time we had a reset, and that doesn't mean we'll have another one again at that time this year. In the past we have had resets throughout many different times of the year.If anything, this year there won't be a reset because of the lack of activity on the server these past 6 months, meaning the map has not experienced enough wear and tear through the course of usage. |

If you think you know the interests of the players so well, have a map reset vote, let it sit for a few weeks and if a majority of the players want a reset then do it. Why do you always try to make descions on behalf of the players without getting any insight from the players? But then again you really don't care about the players considering you said you'd reban us for $51 |

Literally there are four people on the server currently. Most of the people that I've seen in chat saying they don't want a reset I have only seen on for a max of thirty minutes (I realize I'm not in the position to call anyone out for not being on much since I've been inactive myself, thought I still thought was necessary to point out). A large percentage of the playerbase has no initiative to actually do anything on the server worth while, and the only people actually playing are those who only just recently joined the server. All I'm trying to say is expanding the map borders when 1.13 comes out will not do much, due to the fact that everyone still has their items and their comfortable bases. Sure expanding the borders would be nice and would most likely increase activity, but how long will that last? If you really want to make an impact to the server that will restore it's playerbase and livelihood, reseting as soon as possible after this update drops would be the wise decision to partake in. Or you could be fine with your 5 player average-13 player max every night and leave the server in a decaying state, eventually leading to its death in the near future. |
