If you guys haven't noticed yet at the MCSG, almost half of the players on the servers used to play on survival. But the first time you shut it down, that lost about 400 players from the servers. The second world you created, recently taken down, had half of that amount. Who all now are either waiting to see the day that we can have a permanent survival server, or are accepting the fact that there will never be one. Me personally, I'm waiting for that day. Because I know as a fact that despite all the imperfections in the MCSG, that you know how to do the right thing.

I've heard that you shut it down due to the warring factions, always bickering to the staff about hacking, now let me tell you back when the first world was up, I also had the Nodus mod installed. I was punished yes, caught. But if you could have seen what I saw, with tracers and ESP, the amount of hacking going on in this server is far out of your control. Now, I cannot say I have seen this lately, because I do not have hacks any more. But the point is that even if these factions did hack, the problem is not that they hack, its the fact that the staff are complaining to the admins about it. Eventually adding up to the ultimate doom of the server.

Now I know I can't make anyone do anything, but I would say let the hackers be hackers until they are caught by authorities. Do not openly report them, do not tell a mod, simply record it, screenshot it, and post the video or screenshot in the report abuse forums. But now that we could not complete this, we have been punished, and now are missing one of the biggest Minecraft phenomenons known to date. What I say is directly to life, the man known only to me and a small number of others on that day of exile. Take the ban down. Let the people back in. Give us all another chance, I know I have no right asking for this, as it may seem indecisively written, because me myself, I do not know if this is even the reason you have taken down the server.

But back to the topic, you have lost at least a quarter of your players due to this action, and some of which, me included, have paid money to have these certain privileges, and now they are gone. The only thing I can do now as diamond donor is put 4 votes towards a SG map. 75$ for 3 extra votes, I honestly cannot believe what has been done to the survival server. At least consider to bring it back up... For the people. It is the best survival I have played on MC, ever actually. Now that its gone I don't know if I have any need for the brilliant game I have paid so much time, so much work into. Chances are you won't even see this thread. Just thought I'd try.

Until Survival,

Lol a quarter of the players A QUARTER, you make me laugh, sure MCSG lost a few hundred players but nowhere near a quarter, BTW MCG started as Survival Games and it is its most popular gamemode on the MCG, i'm sorta glad they shut it down now they have more time to work on Survival Games

The survival server will come back, just not in the form of Factions. They were more harm than good. The drama that erupted from the factions gave the staff too much to deal with. We are working to create a new version of survival, but it may take some time. All we can be sure of is that if survival has a revival, then it will be in a different form. This community is predominantly Minecraft Survival Games, that is our main gametype, and what draws in the crowds. Because of this, MCSG will always be a focus, however we try and do whats best for you guys the backbone of the community, so when you ask for a survival server, we start work on a survival server, as we have done in the past. It may be tommorow, it may be next month, but it should come.

The only time MCSG has ever lost a significant amount of players was in March last year when BajanCanadian was banned, which was the right decision by staff.

You are speaking for a very small section of the community, even if Survival did lose a quarter of their players - there are over 2 million on MCSG.

We never had any loss in growth after that situation. We continued to expand as normal.
It expanded after that but I was just stating that some amount of players left (may not have been much).

Sure, there have been 2 million players on the servers, but an extremely small portion of those players are actually active. Most of the 2 million probably logged on for 1 game, left and never came back. There are definitely less than a million actually active players throughout the regions.

I didn't like Survival that much, I'm waiting for my Peaceful Survival server to come out (not that it would actually be mine, or that it would actually come out at all :p) so I can play on a server where everyone isn't constantly yelling at each other. I can see how bringing it down would affect everyone though, and I don't think that that was the best course of action given the circumstances. But Survival has always been the sort of controversial part of MCGamer. It's been up and down for ever, since it was first introduced so long ago.

I'm sorry but I chuckled out loud when you said half of the players on MCG played survival and we lost a quarter of MCG.

And while it may be unfortunate, if the way people make it out to be is true, they needed to shut down the server.

I feel like 400 isn't a quarter of MCG... But that might just be me.
