    Hi. I used to play minecraft a LOT. like a metric fuck ton. all day, erry day. skyping with a bunch of people at the time. the whole shabang. even considered starting a series on youtube. Did start a public server at one point, but it went nowhere. ah. the good old days.

    Anyways, basically the idea of getting back into the game has been bouncing around in my head for a while. the thing is, i'm not going to enjoy it solo. the only way i would enjoy it is on a personal server with friends. Trouble is, all the friends i used to play Minecraft with, don't play Minecraft anymore.. because.. well this is going to start a story.. i'll spoiler it if you're only interested in the on topic of the post
    Spoiler for TL;DR:

    In early 2013 i started playing minecraft. version 1.7.3. Immediately got addicted. within a month, i was starting my first server, just for myself and a couple friends, Jon, Adam, Bryan, Tony, and a couple more friends who didn't play it very much. eventially it fizzled out, because updates were happening and eventually our world was outdated. so then Jon started one, i got all my friends.. he got all his friends.. we all kinda brought as many people as we could in to our personal server. One of them was Sanjeet. one of Jon's friends from before he moved to my provence. We didn't exactly hit it off right away, but we gradually became friends through all the time we spent hanging out on minecraft. Eventually we ended up blowing the server up, because we were under the impression that Jon had just backed up the world. he had not. lol.. Anyways. a little while later, i decided it would be a great idea if Jon, Sanjeet, Bryan & I got together and started out own public minecraft server. So we did, i hosted and set up all the plugins and did a lot of the in game administration, and building, Sanjeet did all the redstone, and the best of the building. He was a fantastic builder. in fact, he did 90% of our spawn world, and market world. it looked really good. Jon & Bryan didn't get to contribute as much, because they always worked, but Jon still managed to come on and give us suggestions and feedback. Eventually we decided to release publicly, but alas, all our hard work was in vein, because we had a total of maybe 100 unique players log in, at best, and average of 5 people online at a time, including 2 staff members. Suffice it to say, it went nowhere. and we eventually gave up when craftbukkit died. Sanjeet and I always said we would start back up again when craftbukkit came back, but it never did. And now we'll never get to host a server together again, because a few months ago, Sanjeet committed suicide. Since then I've been bouncing this idea around in my head, as a way to feel closer to my lost buddy. None of my friends want to play it anymore, because they say it makes them feel upset, thinking about him. I wont lie, the first time i went back on the game, i went to pieces and bawled all over my keyboard. but I'm kind of past it now, and it sort of like i said, makes me feel closer to him now..
    In any case, i have nobody to play the game with now, which makes it exceedingly boring. I'm looking to start, or join a private server where there is no "structure" to the gameplay. we just do what we want, when we want, in a community setting. we may help eachother, we may kill eachother. depending on the day. a "Just for fun" server. I don't care if it's vanilla, i don't care what game mode, if it's changeable, if i have op, if anyone has op. I'm really just looking to feel like i did when my friends and i played this game. if that's even possible.

    So, If anyone is interested in playing on a private minecraft server for no other goal than to have fun, let me know. i can host it myself if need be. i have been out of the loop for a while, so if there are any custom servers like bukkit with plugins, please let me know. i'll be all over that shit.

    Alternatively, if my words have moved you, and you have an existing "Buddies" server and are willing to invite me in, my Minecraft username is Watlingj. and thank you in advance.

    I'm 20, pretty chill, if that influences your decision at all.

    This seems like an interesting idea, maybe a whitelisted server for mature players? That is always nice, no random 12 year olds. Obviously you would need to buy a VPS etc; a small and simple server is nice.
