    Hi everyone!

    The elders, helpers, and moderators have all been working very hard over the past months, and I am elated to announce that a new Creative 1.8 server is nearly ready to be launched! There will be more details coming later, but for now, here are the questions I can answer for you!

    New Creative?! Aren't we already on 1.8?

    Actually, no. Creative is currently on Minecraft 1.7, with a plugin that gives us some 1.8 items, like banners and Prismarine. But it's a really old plugin that isn't updated anymore, and it has a lot of bugs in it.

    What will happen with my plots? Will the map be reset?

    I am planning on migrating the current creative map to the new server, so your builds will not be lost. BigCreative is going to be a little trickier to deal with because of how we are restructuring the server, but rest assured that I will do everything I can to keep those builds too.

    To properly copy over your plots to the new Creative server, the current Creative server will have to be shut down while I copy the map over. If it's not shut down, then anything you build from the time I copy the map to the time the new server is ready will be lost. I don't want that to happen. I will try and minimize the downtime of the Creative server because I know how important it is to all of you, but we do have many other servers you can play while it's down. Go explore Hogwarts or try something new!

    When is it going to be relaunched?

    I'm not exactly sure yet. The plot conversion process is going to take a very long time. I will do my best to keep the downtime to a minimum, but I want to make absolutely sure everything goes as planned. I expect the current Creative server to be taken offline anywhere from 4-24 hours. I will be making backups before I make any changes so that if something catastrophic happens, we can always do a rollback.

    So it's just updating to 1.8? What took so long?

    You'll see. :D

    Avatar_plays_MC Help I'm stuck in a simulation!

    Yay, finally! On an unrelated note, some may have noticed that you can't place armor stands in creative. This is because spawning in/placing entities is disabled on creative, and armor stands are classified as entities.

    Yaaaay Creative 1.8!

    So excited for this!

    EDIT: Also, if you have to copy to plots over 1 by 1, You don't have to do any of mine, I was planning on clearing them anyway. :p
