How do i reopen an issue in the Jira
I reported it and someone marked it as resolved and recommended I do additional testing, which I did. But I can't reopen the issue
?
what do i put there
Just remove it if you don't want it
And what is cool
cool is col
Oh, I thought Spigot 1.17 was stable.
who said that ๐
hi, so anyone willing to help me fix the java issue when trying to create a 1.17 spigot server ๐
update your java
its updated fully
no, it is not
so it doesnt work if i click on update
does anyone know a plugin that lets you restrict use of admin items? like barrier blocks? just incase some leak out
?java16
Install Java 16 at https://adoptopenjdk.net/?variant=openjdk16&jvmVariant=hotspot
i think essentialsxantibuild does this
in the config
configurable banned blocks
Thanks man i think it worked now, but i get this message:
it's ok
build another spigot jar w/ buildtools
thanks man
np
is there a way to have just the cmd console open?
is it the nogui thing
yea
i have a minecraft server with aternos and i have a few plugins (bukkit and spigot)
i have a plugin that does /dual
the only problem is it requires admin/moderator
is there a way to change what commands require moderator?
use a perms plugin like
https://luckperms.net
thanks
is there any limitation of how many rows scoreboard can have?
I have 4 gigs of ram but the tps are constantly low and the ram usage is about 1 - 2 gigs. How can I fix this?
yes
i think its like 20 or 25 actually it might be 16 idk or like 20
including the title i think it counts the title to
also length in text got extended in 1.13+
but below that i think it was like 16 characters XD
How do I fix this? https://paste.md-5.net/isujulosey.sql
add the flag --illegal-access=permit
after the java
in your startup command
cant
why
im using pterodactyl
but it happens when i join
well tough luck if you cant enable a flag
then theres nothing we can do
other than stop using java 16 and 1.17
dont use 1.17
1.16
and go to older java
well in java 16 ...
reflection doesnt really work
without the flag
also i believe it cant set final field anymore
so why are u even trying to change a final field its final for a reason?
make sure ur not using 1.17 on your server cuz that requires java 16
im using 1.16
k java 11 should work
i think it's 16 for 1.8.8
im sure its 16 for all versions
i dont think they ever updated it
the title might not count
idk if it does or not
16 works for all versions I believe. I'd recommend updating to it so you can run 1.17 and any version that came before it
Not all versions work with Java 16
yeah but i think the character limit was really low on versions lower than 1.13
1.8.8 1.12.2 1.16.5 1.17 work fine though
i set something to false and java 11 worked with 1.8.8
11 is not 16
so what is pterodactyl
a thing
Not char limit
rows llimit
no there was a char limit it was updated to more
^^
Pterodactyl is an open-source game server management panel built with PHP 7, React, and Go. Designed with security in mind, Pterodactyl runs all game servers in isolated Docker containers while exposing a beautiful and intuitive UI to end users.
ye but i want some more rows :D
Not possible
ik ik :D
@tawny dust is scoreboard client sided?
i think it gets its info from the server but i think it is client sided
so you would need a custom minecraft client to add more rows to scoreboard
do i need like servers for client to run?
?
i may use open source client and remake it
do i need separate servers like dedis vpses for client to run
:o ur smart so smart my guy
Well ofcourse it's rendered on the client
Yeah
yeah i think the server sends the packets but since the scoreboard is rendered client side the limit is on the client itself and not the server
the server can send as many rows as it wants but the client would only render a fixed amount
Don't think there is one
You can make mods though
there probs isnt
to support more rows?
cuz i dont know if your allowed to distribute mc code lol
Well the Prismarine project is the closest you're going to get
You're not allowed. Which is why BuildTools exist
or Hyperium
thats nms not nm
is it the same with that
the client code you know
Nms is mc code
what's Buildtools
Which is created by mojang
no thats the server code
Which is still mc code
im talking about the client code
well yeah but im talking about the client code
The fact that you don't know worries me... where did you get your spigot jar
@sudden loom i know a thing that generates code but your not allowed to distribute any code generated by it its called mcp reborn
on spigot
Illegal site okay
he probs downloads his server g etbukkit
Yeah
The how are yo gonna explain Lunar Badlion and Laby
wdym Illegal
its not illegal downloading from there...
but its illegal what they are doing
they dont even update there jars anyway lol
g etbukkit is doing illegal stuff
get.buk.it i think
wot
yep
i was always using that
they are distributing nms which is not allowed
u use
to get the jars
i just type Spigot download and i click first link
neevr heard of illegal about g et b u kkit
but it is slower tho... since it actually uses your computer to build the jar
well they are doing illegal things
they are distributing nms
which is illegal
i wonder how they havent gotten shutdown yet
hmm i thaught it was like the MAIN download page....
nope
Mojang are quite bad at enforcing their EULA and stuff
where u get .jars
well dont get it there anymore
there jars are outdated anyway
where i can get jar tho ;D
Try reading
or if your on windows you could use bat @echo off IF NOT EXIST BuildTools ( mkdir BuildTools ) cd BuildTools curl -z BuildTools.jar -o BuildTools.jar https://hub.spigotmc.org/jenkins/job/BuildTools/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/BuildTools.jar set /p Input=Enter the version: || set Input=latest java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev %Input% pause
okay got how to get .jar
fam really ๐ซ my response
?bt
when the link is just straight from the documentation
Please read
just haver too run this
?
you gotta run java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev version
yeah if you do that it will download buildtools automatically and then it will ask what version you want to build
okay Gotchya
and then it will do some shit
and then you should get your jar in 5 mins it depends how good your pc is
i have a shit pc
okayy
and it takes like 5 mins
lol
wow didnt knew g et bu k kit was doing that i was always using that
like from the start
well yeah its kinda hard to notice
i used to use it but after i found out they are doing illegal stuff and not even updating the jars i just stopped using it
i've never heard that bu k k it was doint that
well its cuz not everyone knows about it
i always use 1.8.8 or latest
yup
the only people is mostly the whole people in the spigot community
who knows dont download from there
i still think spigot should use paperclip
where it builds on the fly
and so when u run the jar it does everything it needs to do
patching the mc server jar and everything
no i only use spigot for 1.8.8 and paper for latesst :D
Yeah md5 doesn't like that approach
md5 is best
i think he should atleast try and make buildtools a little faster lol
It's fast enough
^^
not really
It is though
paperclip takes like 30 seconds and then buildtools takes like 5 mins
yeah but it still patches?
yes, but to do so the paper team distributes binary patches of software they do not own which is a bit of a gray area
concerning what a binary patch contains
it is a single patch tho
paperclip is basically just a jar containing a launcher and a huge diff against the vanilla mojang jar
not for me cuz it takes like 5 mins
5 mins is too slow ??
5min isn't long
yes
yes it is
oh boy I hope you don't ever work in large scale IT companies then
^^
normal pipelines take a lot longer
you are also only running this once
after that you have your jar
yeah but i dont want to wait 5 mins just to run a test server to make a plugins or something
well yeah but i dont want to wait 5 mins
first time
i get bored waiting doing nothing for 5 mins
start working on the projects ? idk man, 5 mins is really not a long time.
not like you build the jar from scratch every time you create a new server
you can very much copy the build jar
i will have to if i need to update to a newer build
or if you are feeling it, how about setting up your own private build pipeline
that just compiles the final jar
as long as your don't distribute that is very much possible
idk i just dont feel like waiting 5 mins to build a jar
and if you are really into that speed, get a better machine. A build with already decompiled vanilla takes my machine 42 seconds
i cant get a better machine yet tho
i dont have any money
then maybe dial down your expectation of projects maintained for free online or switch to the competitor that only takes 30 seconds using paperclip
i probs will but the only reason i used spigot is cuz it updates like really quickly XD
ik paper is a fork of spigot but i mean it took like a 2-3 extra weeks after spigot release and they have like a whole dev team
yeah, only like 500+ patches
seems easy to do, smh who needs 2-3 weeks for that
async chunk loading, completely new message/text system
bah, I'd have that done in 3 days max
idk but its been 2-3 weeks and they only released test builds for 1.17 XD
i mean i wouldnt use 1.17 yet
but i mean still its quite along time
its. its a community maintained project. like
the developers have lifes besides paper
they have work
and 500+ patches is a very strong understatement of how many patches they have. More around 700 for the server and 500 for the API
that was able to start upgrading to 1.17 from the first few snapshots
spigot only depends on vanilla
spigotcraft was even on snapshots afaik
paper could literally not start until spigot released their first 1.17 build
ik that but i mean it didnt take spigot long from vanilla to release
im talking about it took along time after spigot released
that was able to start upgrading to 1.17 from the first few snapshots
spigot doesnt have snapshots?
not official ones
they did have to also wait until spigot finished, spigot had a headstart
that is the entire point
yeah, this
spigot develops internally on snapshot builds
that might or might not work
but they have a great head start
paper can only sit around and cry until spigot released their first official 1.17 build
yeah but it took more than a week after spigot released
yeah but they have like more than 1 dev so i thought it would be atleast take 1 week after spigot
because it gets to update itself to each snapshot
idk man, either you are the most productive man on this planet and everyone elses workspeed is just slowmotion to you or your sense of software development as a hole is delusional
nah i just thought it be released pretty quickly after 1.17 spigot cuz they had more devs
You know how much has changed in the background right ?
the concept of all of NMS now being obfuscated again
the paper team changed their entire build workflow for this release
cut them some slack
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
same with forge, they have to change a shit ton of build related stuff
granted its not exactly the same thing
but still
forge 1.17 isnt even out YET LOL
my point lmao
but fabric released 1.17 pretty quick?
they also worked on each snapshot
Can one run a spigot server off an AWS EC2 server?
you can, but probably shouldnt
what would make you say no
or like, why would that be discouraged
dont think so
it might be possible
but probs really slow
and might crash alot
I see
Heyyy!! Does somone know, how to add this as a dependecie? https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/โ -theapi-โ -1-7-10-latest.72679/
a s k on there discord
oh its possible, ive done it many times, but the performance is crap
how bad we talking
is an upgrade to higher level servers not possible?
also isnt ec2 really limited
I'm just trying to figure out a low-cost alternative
ec2 free tier is, you get get pretty beefy instances but they're not really designed for gaming
you would be better off with like ovh, someother vps host, or a game host
gotchya
valknet?
3.5gb ram for free
i think
I don't need "free", I just don't want to be paying $200 a month for a server like I was before
I don't need a whole box to myself, I just need 12 gigs ram & a decent processor
well there is plans
I'll check it otu
@west cloak heres the store https://store.valknet.org/
theres a 50% sale going on rn lol
i think
i heard theres gonna be some downtime soon
yeah on july 4th
still a sus company
imagine being forced to join their discord
its gonna go down for one day to figure bills and stuff for it
i think soon it might not be like that but idk
sus
its just rn to make accounts and things u need to be on there support discord
you want to use a company that considers their purchases donations and limits you very harshly on what kind of community you can run and even what kind of private community you can run?
they changed the tos
Upload a shit ton of files and claim its not infinite when you max it out xD
i dont have that plan
@prisma garnet the only rule for private servers is
Do not threaten community servers such as; DDoS threats, bot attacks, or leaking player's IP or their personal information
thats it
for private
what about non private
i still think some maybe like 2 of them is pretty shit
but other than that i dont think its a bad tos
actually maybe like 3
these but maybe not so much on the first one
i dont know i just dont like these ones
why are you quite now?
Hey, whenever I start my server (1.17) it spits out these errors in the console. It works after that, but it is quite laggy compared to 1.16.5 before it was updated.
what
Are these errors an issue and is there a way to get rid of or fix them?
idk try building the Jar again
Ok
kinda looks like your jar files are corrupted
"but i got it from xyz site!"
weird
also, wtf is with that naming? they all have /._ at the start
I'm not sure lmao
Could it have to do with the fact that I build the buildtools on my personal computer and then send it to the computer running the server using smb?
did you make a backup before going to 1.17
I did
However, it is out of date now
The server works, it's just sort of laggy
^ relative to the norm. It also used a lot more ram.
well, try rebuilding the server jar and see if it fixes anything
Oh, also
These two files are generated each time I start it
My server has 8Gb of memory total, and the server is assigned 7Gb
how much ram is being used by other things
try to start the server without using the -Xmx or -Xms flags
Ok
Same thing
Also, the /._ thing is really strange. None of my plugins have that in the name
is it still crashing tho?
Let me see if it made those error files again
I think those error files might be whenever i do /restart because /restart never does anything and i have to start it manually
It does work, but with those errors
did you try rebuilding the server jar?
wtf
Could it have something to do with how I transfer files to the server?
possibly, try starting a server on your local machine using the same jar
let me do that
It works normally that way
Should I get a copy of the server files from the other machine and try it on my local machine?
yeah
makes me wonder if its java then? i honestly dunno, never seen these issues lol
It would almost have to be Java
My personal computer is a Mac, while the server is running MineOS, a Debian distro
Give me a bit to check them
idk either
lol
cuz mine only uses like max 700mb
with like 8 plugins
1 player
cuz i got no friends
but i tested it with 3 and its using 700mb still
@royal lintel i would love to send you my spigot jar
but i cant
its illegal
wut
yeah the spigot jar contains nms so sending anyone it is illegal
which did u use? latest?
its 1.17 lol
its normal spigot
i just said i cant send it
tho
where do I download 1.17 jar
?bt
?1.17
Install 1.17 with BuildTools: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/
should I use latest or 1.17
I shouldn't use 1.17 for servers?
chances of the server crashing
or some/most plugins wont work
vanilla doesnt have plugins
Yes but make sure to relocate end and nether
yea ik I didn't use any becuz spigot alr used a lot of tam
ram*
Java will use all the ram it's given. If you want it to use less give it less
it does?
when I was on vanilla it used less then spigot
i thought it just allocates it so it displays in windows task manager that its using how much you give it
how do I relocate them?
Yeah. It will use most of it before the gc starts
but java isnt using all the 1gb i gave it
It goes in spikes
what is ur xms
?
-Xmx5G -Xms3G
oh f i set it to the same as the max XD
shouldnt matter
how do I move my server to vinilla and keep my nether and end progreas
oh WAIT
i know why it didnt say it was using 1gb
that was the wrong java
i think
that was the one for compiling 1.17
Hello, someone knows a plugin that puts a limit so that a certain block can no longer be put, I need it to put a limit per player of these money generators 1.16.5 version
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/money-printers.49107/
mine uses abt 1000 to 2000 mb
[22:23:26] [Server thread/INFO]: This server is running CraftBukkit version 3160-Spigot-f773da8-295ab08 (MC: 1.17) (Implementing API version 1.17-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)
[22:23:26] [Server thread/INFO]: Checking version, please wait...
[22:23:26] [Thread-15/INFO]: You are running the latest version```
this ur test server?
k, do you know how I can keep my progress on the nether and the end without my progress lost there?
not to sure
oh nice, do u think it will still crash tho ?
idk crashing is pretty rare still
it hasnt happend once
for me
but make sure your using latest
I've used the 1.17 since the 21st and just today I've experienced crashes
i have on my server PlaceholderAPI, floodgate, ProtocolSupport, ViaVersion, ViaBackwards, ProtocolLib, ViaRewind, LibsDisguises, LuckPerms, Geyser-Spigot, Vault, Essentials, EssentialsChat, EssentialsSpawn but protocollib and libdisguises dont work
idk if I should cuz I am not using a test server . . .
well yeah but make sure you have latest
well i wouldnt trust vanilla 1.17 still
y?
its still possible it can crash
spigot is mostly vanilla but they just have changed a few things and made some extra things it isnt like to big of changes but yeah if it crashes in spigot it could still crash in vanilla
and i mean it hasnt crashed once for me on spigot so idk
oh it will be fixed tho right?
ok ill go to latest spigot
it will be stable soon
at the site u sent do I download the latest or 1.17
yeah you build it with that
anyone knows a good multi currency plugin for 1.16.5???
?bt
not here?
wdym? wrong channel? where do I ask? hehe
Nah this is the right place
it might be right channel i just think no one knows here
atleast i dont know any
idk where to find one
google?
Sorry about the wait. Something came up, and I couldn't get back to my computer until now.

Unfortunately, I can't work on this anymore until later tonight, would it be ok if I DM you then?
I found https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/gemseconomy.19655/ but has some issues that sound pretty bad and I don't want my server's economy to die lol
hmm
yeah that would be fine
you could go to help development and pay someone there to make u one?
what kinda problems?
user's data resetting, db resetting and others

latest?
so I download the 1.17
well the code is opensource, so I can take a look at it
also dev hasn't been active since latest update (which was in june i think)
you download latest build tools
ok
January
mb, completely confused january and june lmao
would be cool, thanks, all the issues that are bothering me are on the github page
and you do
java -jar buildtools.jar --rev 1.17
for 1.17 or
java -jar buildtools.jar --rev latest
for 1.16.5
and for other versions you just type the version number
java -jar buildtools.jar --rev version
where do I download the .jar I don't see it
?bt
when I look at 1.17 I click top but it don't bring me to download server.jar page
yeah you cant download the jar
you have to build it yourself
using buildtools
Now please read...
lmao
its the only legal way to have the jar XD
@royal lintel if you want a more simpler way you could use this if your on windows @echo off IF NOT EXIST BuildTools ( mkdir BuildTools ) cd BuildTools curl -z BuildTools.jar -o BuildTools.jar https://hub.spigotmc.org/jenkins/job/BuildTools/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/BuildTools.jar set /p Input=Enter the version: || set Input=latest java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev %Input% pause
just make sure you save it in a .bat
bruh I got the 1.17 jar that wasn't the buildtools
?
is that from g.etbukkit .....
its illegal to get the jar anywhere other than buildtools
you know thats illegal right...
well it isnt illegal for people downloading it
but whoever is putting it up
is doing the illegal
and for all we know they could put viruses in them
and they're hella old
yep
the one on there site rn is probs the first ever version of 1.17
which is like really buggy
1.16.5 (:
well buildtools is the only official thing to get a jar (also its legal)
oh ok
Wait then why bukkit have it on their page
that isnt bukkit lmao
thats a different company
idk what company it is
bukkit went out of commission years ago
the last version was like 1.7.2
XD
uh
Whats so funny ;/
It's the correct spelling in swedish :kekw:
lol
huh, til
bruh that site has 1.17 for craftbukkig
my life is a lie
but that site is also illegal :)
as soon as I'm on my pc ill move to the latest legal jar
yeah also g*tbukkit is also giving old jars
and also they probs putting viruses in them but know one knows
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
doesnt mean a thing
they are still doing illegal
they are giving jars thats old
;-;
its owned by some random company no one knows
That site is so annoying...
ik im saying that fooled 10k ppl to think they are legit and legal
It causes people to say Im on latest... while they're months out of date
i think mojang should do something about it
Yeah they deffinetly could DMCA them
they probs will put it back up
they need to like get bankrupt
so then they cant do it again
idk
Well this is the problem with the internet it's impossble to prevent people fron reuploading it
we need microsoft to put a public announcement saying dont download anything from g*tbukkit
then they wont get any users
and they will die
Like kids read announcements
yeah true
put it in a windows notification
and google should hop in to
and when u goto it kicks you off
:)
how do you reproduce those errors? and are you using yaml or mysql?
Hello everyone, I got a problem
Only mobs spawns and not monsters...
I already checked server files and plugin, everything's turned on
The map in question is custom, 1.16.5 version
Should I use a plugin? If yes, what plugin? Or any other solution?
u sure you dont have peaceful on?
you probs have peaceful on
wdym mobs couldnt spawn? peaceful disables monsters from spawning, not animals
which mobs
that's why I say if I had peaceful, mobs couldnt spawn
im so confused
monsters are mobs...?
well, I call it mobs
bro
but you just said mobs can spawn and animals cant spawn
;-;
what
._.
Well maybe I didn't explain myself properly, I'm just concerned about the errors being reported but I haven't got any errors myself, actually I haven't tested the plugin, I just want to make sure those errors won't chase me through reports in my sv all the time.
did you disable animal spawns in the server.properties?
oh, mb. I was confusing you with the person that reported the issue lmao
I've been testing the plugin so far and I havnt had any issues
No hehe, actually I just replied to two errors a little ago lol
๐ค well maybe I'll just test it out a while and try to get errors, thanks for the help and your will to do more (:
it could be regions
blocking it
or it could be that custom world has it disabled
I will check but i'm not sure, why monsters can spawn and not animals
Do you have multiverse installed?
I suggest making a staging server if you can, basically a clone of your actual production server that you can test on.
gamerule is good too
@weak drift i choose to be alone with my mother :)
Still not working
doMobSpawning is already true
All I see is spider, skeleton, creeper & zombies
that's why I'm here ๐
i dont think animals spawn at night tho
then gl
i dont know at all whats wrong
try restarting the server if doesnt work then theres nothing else i can do
Already done
welp ask somewhere/someone else
?
I have an issue, I want players to respawn at specific coordinates but when i do /setworldspawn (coords) i still spawn at another location
(1.16.5)
theres a gamerule that you have to set to 0
which one is that?
POGGERS TYSM
thing is tho the y is gonna be the highest block at x and z
Yeah actually that's what I'm doing xd
kind of at least
@tawdry narwhal remember that version of java you recommended to me? for some reason when I install a new version of minecraft forge, it doesn't recognize the java installation as java for some reason
Is there a way I can configure spawn rates
for what
im gettting like 3 mobs spawning per 20 minutes
its ridiculously low for some reason
only in the nether though
nether spawns slow
i think thats normal
i dont think so
its lower than in my singeplayer world by a significant margin
well i played in singleplayer
and its the same in spigot
same spawn rates
but if you wanna change spawn rates you probs need a plugin
I have a wither skeleton farm and i copied the world into singleplayer
maybe 20x more spawns in singleplayer
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I'm curious to see the distribution of Minecraft client versions, anybody know if there's any statistics on this? Like, for example, if more people use 1.8.9 or 1.16.4
Are you running 1.17? If so run /version and see if you are behind on versions
A lot of clients are 1.8 for the most part
I'm talking non hack clients btw
lunar cosmic ect
Yes, I'd be curious if there's any data on it though
no idea
I see lots of graphs for server versions, but not client versions
client versions isnt publicly available and there isnt anyway to get it
wish it was tho :(
I mean legally it isn't, it isn't impossible though ;)
Wait, it's illegal?
well yeah u can make mods
I was about to ask why stuff like bStats don't collect that
It's illegal to gain unauthorised access to mojangs data yes.
bstats is server sided
i mean u can get client versions of users
but you shouldnt log it
They have no authority to log it
its apart of privacy kinda
Unless they say that they do in their privacy tos
I mean they could just put it in the TOS
and you have to have it in your tos
And then log it
So then, Via is illegal? Because iirc Via logs to the console which version a player is using when the log in
Anyone who doesn't read it is at fault.
is that logging tho
It logs it to a secure server
But like, how is logging to a text file any different to logging it the a database? The data is still there
So surely that's better?
Varies
You're only allowed to log data if it's unsecurely? lmao
cuz legit you need uuid for players all the time
But even the default server JAR tracks players' IPs?
no it doesnt?
Yes? For stuff like ip banning. It's also outputted to console when they join.
eh yeah but people agree to the mc tos that they have their ip
like every website logs it
all services log your IP
yeah
No harm in doing so
Exactly ^^
Gaining public information isn't illegal.
Pretty sure it's actually the law that you have to log IPs for stuff like illegal activity
And surely the version you're connecting to a Minecraft server with is public information?
everyone probs has ur ip lmao
Yes the version is technically logged via the console
Depending on server
And how they run, I.e what plufins
Plugins they use
There are plugins out there which store version info
Its not public information tho
Yes, exactly, so how is it legal to store the version each individual player uses at each individual time, but not to collect it in a bunch so that it can't even be traced back?
When it's being publicly posted i.e on a website
It's illegal , unless the server in question states in their tos
I don't see how just counting the number of times a client version joins a server would be any less harmful than storing the exact time, user, IP and version all together
That they collect this and that
It's not necessary harmful
It's the fact that it can't be posted without the users consent or user automatically agreeing to servers tos
Eh fair enough I suppose
i mean ips cant be publicly posted but ips do need to be logged for some things
I mean that's what I understand tbh, i could be partially wrong
So then, where or which TOS allows for, say, bStats to track how many players are playing on servers at any one time? And then, why can't bStats just add something there to also allow for tracking client versions?
according to google
using an IP Logged isn't illegal
Logged
Logger
The user chose to clink on the link
You didn't force them
i mean even if they did would it be illegal?
So then, by that logic, the user chose to join the server, you didn't force them, so..? ๐ค
Have you never heard the saying never take candy from strangers, it works the same way, never click random ljnks you don't trust
yeah thats a problem of mine i click every link i see
Well an IP grabber is a bit different
But at the same time
If you don't maliciously do anything with it
No legality problems
Ah
It's once you are malicious , it becomes an issue
So it's to do with malicious intent? ๐คจ
yeah like i ip grabbed my friends ip just to play a prank
Like I could send you a link rn, find out which city you live in
For my personal beenfiit
Bendfi
i didnt do anything with the ips
Benefit
XD
Then, what's malicious about counting client versions?
Nothing, it's malicious when you post the info to a website
Without having TOS explaining you're doing that
How's that malicious though?
yeah you need consent
It's not really gonna harm them so I doubt antone would give a duck
But that brings me back to this, where does the user consent to having their activity tracked on bStats?
But still , they would technically be able tosue
Even though their case wouldn't be string
Strong
Considering its just an version smh
Ye
What is bstata
Our privacy policy.
But, the average user probably has never even heard of bStats, so hasn't had the ability to agree to these terms
actually i think it collects server info
Server info such as?
The server would have signed up to bstats ?
yep
Exactly y
Server version, plugins installed, players online at any time
It's that players online at any time though. Server version and plugins installed I can understand that it's the server that has to agree with, but the players online one, surely the player would have to consent to that
lol
Oh ye I guess that makes sense
ANYONE can get the player count, plugins
^
its basic server info
Since you get the players online from pinging the server
anyone can find probs the os there using for the server even
^
Makes sense
Where'd this convo even come from lel
idk
Me asking for statistics on client versions lol
Ahh
I mean someone could create a company
Which collects thatinfo
And have users sign up
I'm just curious about random stuff like, what is the least used version post 1.7
Just thought it would be interesting ๐
Exactly
ye
You'd have to be quite well established
To even have them consider
But they'd probably steal the idea
And crate a platform their selces
Charging a monthly subscribe
Could maybe come under the Freedom of Information act but I doubt it
Subscription
I doubt they would make a monthly subscription to view data lmao
It has to cover worldwide not just us or one country
Microsoft would find a way
They're greedy
Ha Ha
Microsoft as been pretty good with Java Edition imo, they've not tried to add any monetisation to it
mojang I think works on the java edition but microsoft owns the bedrock
All they've really done is added the marketplace to Bedrock
cuz microsoft doesnt touch it
MOJANG works on java
Ye
This is so true
i think
What do you guys think would be the least used final or bug fix client version past 1.7? lmao
they only work on the bedrock edition
I'd say maybe 1.11.1
Mojang works on it but
Microsoft makes any and all financial decisions
Marketing decisions etc
i'd say that 10% uses 1.12 and 50% use 1.16 1% probs uses 1.17 and the rest 1.8
Any major change they decide on
I doubt it's 50% for 1.16.5
^
maybe liek 46%
1.16.5 is too specific
Why not ask Notch
1.16 then
Probably not even like 30% for the entirety of 1.16 though
Notch might not even have access anymore XD
nah everyone uses 1.16
