    I do not play on factions at all because of how vicious it is because peaceful is a lot more friendly because people won't attack you etc. However I do not think that the community is suffering or falling apart because of this.

    I find it funny how we all start getting bored then leave. Then factions come, now we're in darkness. This community was never meant to have factions. We were too close in bonds for it. due to these personal bonds, we feel insulted and ostricized when our friends raid or backstab us.

    But this is factions...
    We're supposed to *fight* each other, in a friendly competition.
    No damage is being done to the community, only the few minorities that took it too seriously.

    It's not "factions" that has hurt people. Who does the damage, the sword or the man? Sure, the sword may be the weapon, but who controls it?
    That's not a very good example, but it suits the purpose.

    The ones at fault for lost friendships are the people themselves.
    "Take things too seriously"
    The ones who lose friendships are the ones who take it too seriously. They are the ones who become extremely competitive, and once something goes wrong, they blame it on the game.

    Everyone I've seen that have been complaining about factions have either been raided, died, or lost a friend. Is that the game's fault?

    I know people here. Incase you havent noticed already, this server was marketed torwards kids. Now, competition attracts people(And I am very surprised J&H hasn't added competition to every minigame), and many people take competition to a whole new level. It is something the human nature does before it matures. Now I'm now therapist(That'd be mappy), but this is the best answer I can give.

    But if I'm not mistaken, when bringing up statements like these in the past, like to add swear filters and such, I see people saying " this is not their job to babysit us", and yet I see the same people contradict themselves here, saying that they are kids and they can't handle this and J and H should remove this and that. It's quite ironic, actually. We claim to be mature yet we lose friends over something as petty and childish as a minigame.

    Yes, I do concur with the fact that the factions server has altered various people’s personalities.
    Some of my best friends from the server have turned into strangers because of the way they act now that factions is a thing.
    Particular friends of mine have taken factions so seriously that they lost nearly three of their closest friends.
    The members of the faction I’m in make a big deal out of nearly anything.
    I was on TeamSpeak the other day, and they were all freaking out about how EFDF was about to raid them. It’s confusing, because they were screaming and yelling at me to do something, seeing as I’m an officer of Rogue. But I didn’t do anything because it’s stupid. I find factions stupid with the amount of people making a big deal about EVERYTHING that happens. Pardon my language, but it’s a fucking game.
    You got raided?
    Congratulations.
    You raided someone?
    Cool, good job.
    Look, people have changed, but I can’t do anything about it.
    I can’t stop them from playing factions, can I?
    It’s their choice to play whatever minigame they want to.
    If they enjoy playing it, then let them be.
    If you loathe factions, then just play peaceful. It’s that simple.
    Sure, the community used to be friendly and such before factions became a part of the server, but people found that to be boring.
    I’m sure that all of you remember the amount of threads being made about how the server was becoming boring.
    How many of those threads are here now? I see none.
    So, think of factions as a good thing.
    There’s actually fewer people complaining about the server being dull, if you haven’t noticed.
    I am someone that dislikes factions with a strong passion, but I noticed something.
    I noticed that, though it changes people, players are actually having fun for once instead of bitching about not being able to do anything.
    Just let people play the game…I see no harm in that.
    If you seriously have a problem with it, just ignore them.
    >.<

    This is the solution to the problem. "But 'so and so' left and 'so and so' hates me now! D:" *insert lila's quote*

    Done and done. Now can we please focus on my peaceful faction, Valve, now? <3

    Let me have a say in this.

    I was on the factions server the other day and I saw my friend was on, so I skyped him. In the middle of him saying something I asked him "why do you hack?"

    He replied"I hack because everyone else on the server hacks, so why can't I?"

    This is an example of loosing your mind! If you see someone else hacking you don't do the same back and hurt the server more than it already is. This shows how addicted to the game you can get. He wanted to be the best so he cheats his way to the top. He didn't think about helping the server by reporting the hacker, but instead he makes enemies and he becomes what you could say a "devil" to the community. This is example of why factions can be bad.

    It's good that the community is coming up with solutions, but we take factions to far. Instead of saying to the other person hacker or inappropriate words say gg or good fight. What will saying those instead of "hacker" and "you suck" do? It will nurture the relationship you had or might create with that person and make less violence. After all minecraft isn't meant to be a violent game. :/

    If you truly think about it; we...,us..., the people of this community asked for factions. So it's like we just dug a hole. Now we are bored so then we jumped into the hole and covered ourselves with dirt. Now that we are suffocating in the dirt we want out! So we asked for something and we got it, so 2 months latter it's the worst choice @ItsHarry and @ItsJerry have ever made for our community! Makes no sense to me.

    This is very unneccessary. Just spread lila's quote, which I put into code:

    Code:
    If you loathe factions, then just play peaceful. It’s that simple. -LilaRok(Luv ya Luleh <3 ~Perc No Homo)
    You all seem to be clearly overreacting. I suggest going to bed, because it's obviously late., and rethink your opinions tomorrow. Maybe actually listen to rockor and shtuff.

    End of discussion. Now can we please stop talking about this and get on with our lives?

    My opinion is this

    Well, I do play factions very often and sometimes I do realize that I take it too far, but when I realize that (which I always do) I take a step back and go to another mini game. Sometimes I do get very obsessed with factions but I do always take a step back if I do take it too far. I do not think people should stop playing or it should be removed. I would be very mad if this did happen because it's your choice to let it get to you or not. If you can't handle loosing some stuff and handling defeat, than I do not suggest you play factions because it happens to everyone. People need to realize that many people and most of the people in factions do not get obsessed like this and are mature enough to handle factions. I think all removing factions would do is enrage people, so for that reason I strongly disagree with this and I suggest that if you can not handle playing factions than don't and go play something else. The thing that everyone likes about factions is that there is PVP. People enjoy pvping in factions because that is one of the few mini games that you can actually PVP in. I really hope people se sense and if they can't handle factions than don't play but if you can than continue like I will! Just remember that it is only a game and don't let it get to you.

    Thank you and I hope this doesn't offend anyone.
