Important update regarding Minecraft Server
12 years ago
Hello everycubby, hope you have something fun planned for your Labor Day. ^^
Last night we ran into some severe lag issues on the Minecraft server. Despite having a mere three people on, lag was such that the game was nearly unplayable so we started looking into the issue and discovered that the latest version of Minecraft is to blame. Their most recent update (1.6.2) included substantial changes to how zombies work which has also demanded more from processors and was the cause of the server lag last night.
For this reason, we have restarted the server on version 1.5.2 so that we don't run into this problem anymore and can continue to enjoy (hopefully) lag-free gaming. What does this mean for you? If you are using the latest client version of Minecraft, you won't be able to join the server. You'll need to install the 1.5.2 client from the download page of the Minecraft site which can be found at the bottom. Sorry for the inconvenience, but we felt this to be the best solution because lets face it, laggy games are no fun. As always, please feel free to send any questions/thoughts/concerns to an administrator so we can continue to make your experience great.
Cheers!
