Figured I would post this in Other Games, as we don't yet officially have a spot for it in the web/forums (soon!)

 

Anyhow. You can join us on 7DaysToDie at 24.21.249.154 Default Port: 26900

 

 

A word of caution: This is a Mature Zombie Apocalypse Zombie Survival Sandbox game and as such we do not have, nor enforce language filters

unless it is racist, bullying, or beyond what we consider excessive.

 

Minecraft will be kept age-appropriate and family friendly but we ask that anyone

joining the 7 Days To Die server, be forewarned that it is anything but, family friendly

 

 

<b>We are currently running on Random Gen world with Alpha 15. We will keep this world unless forced to restart by a major update.</b>

 

<b>Come join us and remember this is PVE but PvP will not be punished if used for self-defense or agreed upon interaction.</b>

 

<b>We also discourage raiding of personal bases / builds as there is PUHLENTY of resources available in the world.</b>

 

<b>Check out the website </b>http://7daystodie.com/?home for more information on the game and ongoing development.

 

 

<b>This is an alpha build so keep in mind it is still likely bugged and glitched and I can only assist you in so many ways if something goes wrong.</b>

<b>This game is for more advanced survivalist and not the casual builder.</b>

 

<b>Thank you and enjoy!</b>

We've made a few changes since taking ownership of the Minecraft server. Since it's hard to keep up with the forums sometimes we're going to start doing monthly update posts instead of individual posts about each update. I'll link these in the Facebook group and Discord. I'll edit this post if we add anything else.
 
The first are our staff changes. Please welcome HX_Tink
to Manager and Mrkaboommm1
to CEO!
One of the most important things I have learned from watching how Pun ran Xe is to give people multiple chances and they might surprise you. Some bans Pun would pardon had me so confused before I got staff but as I've watched the community I've realized that's the right way to do things. MrKaboommm1 is proof of that. 
He has become not only a close friend to a lot of us but a vital member of our staff. I am confident in our decision and I hope you all will be too.
We like to keep a small active staff so we have ranked some inactive staff to Diamond. This is nothing personal. The server is just too small to keep inactive people as staff. If we get numbers back up there's always a chance to be promoted again. So don't forget to vote every day at Xegaming.com/vote
. It only takes a couple minutes and you get some great in game rewards from the vote crates at spawn.
 
Edit: 11/18/2016: /kit noob is now /kit stone.

Kits have been completely redone. Noob and Iron can be done every 12 hours, Lapis through Diamond every 24 hours, and Obsidian is every 48 hours.

 
 
You now get Xeebles for mob kills. It's a very small amount and you do not get anything from mobs from spawners but if you go in the wild at night you should be able to make some good money.
 
I made a post on it but if you haven't seen, we added a new rank, Obsidian
. Obsidian includes a region and access to the Obsidian mob grinder. More info on it in this thread: https://xegaming.com/forums/index.php?/t...dian-rank/
Don't forget, you can get a 20% rank (or rank upgrade) discount if you send us a picture of "I <3 XeGaming!" at a landmark.
 
Obsidian rank also get access to the XeGaming Feed the Beast server. If you don't want Obsidian but want Feed the Beast, there is also a $7 a month subscription for 3 months. ($21 total to keep access.)
 
The subscriber package has been added back to Buycraft. 
It's $5 a month and you get an npc of you placed in /warp subscribers, a chest that will have new items placed in it every month including at least 1 enchanted tool, a small 9x9 plot where you can build or have a shop, and access to the monthly bosses.
 
Apple seed is back.
 
The admin shop is now available. You can buy from it at a high price but you can also sell to it to make money. The only things in it are things that are not able to be mined or crafted. If you have a large farm or use grinders a lot this will be very useful to you.
 
Info on the horse protection plugin is coming soon.
 
We are finalizing how we'd like to implement pvp. You can vote here if you have any opinions on how we should do it: https://xegaming.com/forums/index.php?/t...n-in-main/
 
 
Regions will be coming back. They're going to have high restrictions like they did a few years ago. You'll have to have houses, an established mine, a power source, etc.
 
Quests are all in and working great. /quests to see which ones are in. If you like to raise your mcmmo skills, these can make you a bit of extra money. Make sure to start all of the quests. I'll be adding more soon.
 
Palmetto is hosting a building contest. More info on it here: https://xegaming.com/forums/index.php?/t...g-contest/
 
PunJedi is now running 7 Days to Die. It is a more adult game with more relaxed rules. Read here for info and the IP https://xegaming.com/forums/index.php?/t...ie-server/

We are thinking about turning pvp on in survival. If we do, sponges will be a safe zone. This would allow survival to be a little more challenging. We would also add some more quests to give more rewards for pvping.

Your opinion matters to us so please vote on the poll and comment with your thoughts.

We'll make a decision in about a week.

It's time for another building contest to see some of the awesome things you guys can build!

The theme for this contest will be race tracks and it is being sponsored by Palmetto.

 

Were looking for the best boat, horse, or other type of race track you can build. 

We will judge on creativity and functionality.

 

The winner of the contest will get a donation by Palmetto to Obsidian rank in game. Second and third place will receive some in game prizes to be decided on by the staff.

 

To start go to the creative world with /warp contest and pick a plot near Palmetto's example track plot then use /plot claim while standing in the plot, create a public warp to your plot, then comment on this post with the type of track you are making and the name of your warp.

 

The contest will last for 30 days.

 

We look forward to seeing what you build!

 

Don't forget if you are gold rank or higher you can use world edit in creative for the contest. 

We recently added a new rank, Obsidian
, to the Minecraft server.

Obsidian comes with a $40 donation if you currently have no rank. It is $35 if you're already Iron, $30 for Lapis
, $25 for Gold
, $20 for Emerald
, and $15 for Diamond
.
As with all donations on XeGaming, it is completely optional. You will have access to all normal features of Minecraft either way.


This info post is for if you have already donated to Obsidian rank.

Thank you for donating to Obsidian rank! We really appreciate your support.



Obsidian rank comes with some custom benefits. You will need help from an Owner to get some of these benefits.


The first perk you get is access to Feed the Beast.
The server is running Infinity 1.7.10. FinalFormSora will get you whitelisted no later than 24 hours after your donation.
<a class="bbc_url" href="https://www.feed-the-beast.com/">https://www.feed-the-beast.com/</a> to download. We recommend the legacy launcher.

You will also need the Enchanting Plus and Morph mods here: <a class="bbc_url" href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9_pAR4IE4TXSHF0SnA4NUFaYlE">https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9_pAR4IE4TXSHF0SnA4NUFaYlE</a>

The ip is xegaming.com:25567
NOTE: If FeedTheBeast access is the only thing on this list you are interested in, we also offer a subscription. $7 a month for 3 months for a total of $21. But we recommend just upping to Obsidian if you are already Emerald rank or higher because it ends up being a smaller donation.


Obsidian grinder


You also get access to the Obsidian grinder region. /Warp Obsidian or /Warp Obby to get there.

The area has skeleton, spider, and zombie grinders. There are butcher buttons in case too many mobs spawn. Please use them if you notice there are more mobs than you can quickly kill.

There's also admin shops for steak and diamond swords and a button that will deposit 20 xp levels.

Since mobs can cause tps to drop we will be adding an afk kicker (30 minutes) for Obsidian ranked players.

You can choose to opt out of access to the grinders and we will remove you from the afk kicker.

Region


When you know where you want your 500x500 region, have your two corners marked and /mail send FinalFormSora or /mail send PancakeMoon.

Know what you want to name it and what region flags you want on it when you send the mail.

Spawners


I or FinalFormSora will place your 3 spawners for you when you know where you want them. You get 2 passive (pig, sheep, cow, bunny, or chicken) and 1 aggressive (zombie, spider, or skeleton).

We will not move or change the type of the spawners if you change your mind so be sure where you want them.

It'd be awesome to see what you guys play on!

Thank you all for being so patient over the past week of downtime. The server is all set up at its new home here in Florida. Minecraft, Forums, and Buycraft are all up. Check out buycraft to see the new rank option. Obsidian rank includes access to the XeGaming Feed the Beast server and a few other awesome perks. We'll be adding new features over the next few weeks so keep an eye on the forums for more info. We look forward to seeing you all back in game.

Hey, I didn't notice the estimated time the server would be down during shipping in the "passing the torch" post. How long is the server going to be down and what can i do in the mean time?


Well Im not the person shipping it but if final, pancake, or pun feel to relay that information in a post or something that would be helpful.

HOWEVER, This is a good spot to start for finding games to play while you wait for the server to get back up.

• You can always try playing something from FeedTheBeast if you have a decent computer. It is rather beefy, if you make 60 fps in minecraft expect to make around 10-15 in FTB. You can get it at www.Feed-The-Beast.com
  
• If your more of an RTS(Real Time Strategy) player like myself you can always try some good RTS games like the Supreme commander series if you have a little bit of change in your pockets, about 10-15 dollars if you want to get the bundle of Supreme Commander, and Supreme Commander:Forged Alliance, i would suggest the later as it provides more content that the original Supreme Commander. If your more of a Military RTS Person where every loss counts and you want straight fighting without the base building you have Wargame:Red Dragon. This game is very challenging and the campaign is not easy either, as most of the units are meant to be realistically modeled after the actual unit itself. The Campaign is also very difficult because most of the time you are not fighting a winning battle. this is a game where you are meant to loose some fights and need to be prepared for this.
  
• For Those who like Tower Defense Games, we have the classical Bloons Tower Defense series (for free) or for those who want a bit more you can try out the GemCraft: Casting shadows. Each one is extremely fun and Enjoyable to play while yet strategic at the same time. GemCraft has a bit of lore behind it and is a bit more difficult than BTD.
  

 When I hopped into minecraft for the first time in a single player world. I was blown away by how simple yet intriguing it all was. It took me a good 20 minutes before I realized you could dig down After a few hours I decided to make the leap into the multiplayer aspect. 

 

I don't even remember the first server I tried. Just that it was rude, crude, and took me all of 5 minutes to realize this wasn't home. 

 

The second server I joined was this smaller community called Project Xaldin. At that time it was being run by Puremin0rez with a whole host of people as staff, some of which are still around today.

 

Long story short, after many months of playing and chatting with the crew it became an option to purchase the server from Pure and run it myself. At the time, Michael S. Siebert and I were running WildHome region and had been doing the research to figure out what it would take. We all agreed, and Michael and I were now the new owners of the server. 

 

We had agreed that we would alter the name slightly and Pure would hold on to the Project Xaldin / Xaldin's Edge aspect of the name. After a few weeks and some initial learning curves we went with XeGaming. Now, over 6 years later we are still XeGaming, an awesome community built around respect, interaction, fairness, and fun. 

 

Through all the years of ups and downs I have had an experience I couldn't begin to describe in one post alone. Having said that, I am stepping down as the Owner of the Minecraft portion of XeGaming.Com.

 

FinalFormSora and PancakeMoon will now be the new Owners of the Minecraft edition of Xe. I will retain Ownership of XeGaming.Com and will be looking to host other games as well as assist in the new redesign and layout of the Web and Forums.

 

I will not be going anywhere in any sense as I am still following through with the plans of Xe. I am just able to pass some of that time and effort to Final And Moon and let them inject some fresh ideas and energy into Minecraft and other hosted games. 

 

I haven't been on as much lately anyhow as I have been busy with being a homeowner with my gf and still dealing with my ever stressful disability battle. 

 

With this transfer of Xe's minecraft it allows me to focus on other games as well as allow Final and Moon to host other games under the Xe title too. The ultimate goal for me, personally, is still to have XeGaming be a multi game hosting hub that has a strong and long-running community and a simple to use layout directing you to the many game we will host.

 

 

 

 

There will be a few days downtime as I need to send the hardware out and they will need some time getting everything in place for their access etc..

 

As of this post 9/20/2016 the server will be shut down at 7am on 9/21/2016 pacific time. Downtime will be determined upon shipping length and setup time.

 

 

Thank you all for an absolutely amazing community to have been a part of, and will continue to be  a part of, just in a different fashion.
