Hi, 
I've been working on my plot for a couple days now, and I'm happy to say that I have finished my builds. It is a modern house and a separate garage. I hope you find it good enough to let me apply for builder.
Thanks!

Hi my name is Vincent and this is my second builder application first application: Hi I would like to apply for builder on the WoK server.
My name is Vincent and I am from the Netherlands.I am 16 and have bin watching Hermitcraft since season 3. I first heard about WoK in a inspiration video of Keralis I immediately knew that I wanted to be part of that cominity. So about 2 weeks ago I finally joined the server and discord. I have finished my guest plot and now I really want to join the city building project. My IGN is Marinogames88 the ID of my guest plot is -5:19 my Planet Mincraft and Discord Ussername is Vinbq88. I mostly focus on old buildings and landscaping.

As reply I got this message:
Hi Vincent!!

Thanks for applying!
I’m a little bit stuck with your application. It looks like you are a good builder and have a good skill set with multiple different styles, but the builds are a little strange and don’t quite fit in with what we are looking for in our worlds. I would suggest that you reapply with more realistic builds such as an urban building, house, etc in traditional or modern.

After reading this I made 2 new realistic builds. Since I am from the Netherlands I chose to make two dutch buildings. Hope you like it.

Hello World of Keralis!

I am excited to announce that the Towny server will be hosting yet another PvP tournament! In this tournament all gear will be provided to the player, and each fight will be 1v1. To sign-up for the tournament simply reply here on this thread that you'd like to join or message me @Yorkie or any member of Towny staff on our discord. You could even message any Towny staff or myself in-game if you see us online. Sign-ups for the tournament will end on Thursday, the 21st of May at 11:59PM United States Eastern Standard Time. The tournament will start on May 22nd and could last multiple days depending on the availability of participants. Once sign-ups end I will post the bracket and have each fight let me or any towny staff know what time works best for the both of them (This is to ensure as many fights as possible are fought). The tournament will not last longer than 5 days, so if someone is unable to find a time to fight their opponent in that time frame, their match will be forfeit. Any questions feel free to post here on this forum post or any of the other contact points mentioned above.

Sincerely, Yorkie, WoK Towny Staff

Hello Northstream,

you have been permanently banned on the server and discord (considering five active warnings, multiple previous bans on server and discord, several mutes and kicks before and quite literally begging for a ban) for inappropriate language, swearing, staff and server founder disrespect, homophobia and not contributing anything except drama and toxicity to the server.

You know for what you have been previously banned, here's proof for the last chance you had but sadly didn't follow the rules, once again.

If you feel this is not right, you can make a ban appeal in the correct forum and format.

ENJOY

Welp , what a shit show of a situation this was lol. Cant say i regret it, cant say i dont deserve the ban. 
In my opinion what i did is justified, but i understand rules are rules. Most of staff know the situation already, so not gonna go into much detail, but the short story is, blindy asked me for screen shots of items that i didn't know the location of. all i knew is that they where in my town and under a trap. I was stressed, quite annoyed with how darn long staff took with a simpel Grief decision. 

So in the heat of the moment i turned on my xray texture pack i used to use on a skyblock server. it was 2 years old. 

what i can say is i have never used xray on wok for an advantage, i find that shit boring.  and on this map i dont even need to go mine. I get every Diamond tool and Armour for 1 emerald each. 

None of these are excuses, because in my head what i did at the time was the right thing. I dont regret it, i wish i used more time looking for the damn entrance, but the past is in the past. 

I have now delted the Resource pack , because in all honestly, i wouldn't have used it if i didn't already have it. 

This situastion was a mess, and i 100% understand the ban, now i hope that you see that i havent used it to get an advantage over other players. Thats not the kind of person i am. i report all the abuses i can find, and i think i got a pretty nice track record of that. From broken Z enchants, to broken pets. 

I dont want to be known as someone who want or need an advantage. 

thats really it, i did what i felt at the time was the right thing, i just did it the wrong way.

at the time of writing i have 4 days and 21 hours left on the ban. 

I would like a reduction, or maybe a unban on creative.

Hi All,

After being back on the server, I've thought of some ideas that I feel would improve the player experience and build a larger community. There's quite a bit to it so I'll break it down into sections.
I'd also like to add that I don't know the creative server well enough to suggest improvements.

Hub - A players first impression:

• When I rejoined the first thing that I noticed is that the portals do not work. In the eyes of a new player it could mean that the servers arent working or dont exist. The GUI is handy for server selecting but the old-school way to go needs to be working too.
  
• Another thing that doesn't seem to work is the cosmetic menus. Everything that I tried on there said I didn't have permission. Is there a way to use it that I don't know about or should there be a way made? the other option is to just remove it. For as long as I've remembered this has always been a feature that's not worked properly.
  
• My last hub suggestion is to turn the large areas under parkour into a pvp area where similar to parkour, when you step on a pressure plate you turn on "pvp mode" which gives you a kit of equipment and lets you fight.
  
  

• I believe it was 1.10 where we had a tutorial to the server. I think this would be handy for new players when they join. In my eyes the reason that the last one did not catch on was because it was super long winded and quest-like, but mainly there was no way to skip it. all you need is a long room with holograms or signs explaining how things work. This will give new players a bit more understanding of how the server works and how to play so they may stay longer.
  
• Dare I say it? Get more staff. The current staff team are fantastic but back in the day it was double the size. If there are more mods on the server then it will allow admins to focus on other tasks like adding new features and setting up events.
  
• I'm going to make a separate post on this but bring back the trading card maps that Redslam did. They were amazing and its a great way at this stage in the game for players to spend their money on and even grind to complete the set. Lots of players seem to be losing motivation to keep going and this will be a great way to keep them on wok rather than elsewhere.
  
• Throwbacks – my idea is to have WOK Heirlooms. These can be gained through contests or around the map or even through custom recipes. They will be memories of the previous years of towny that old players may have forgotten about. Could have things like redslams drip drop game, Gobias addition of the marriage plugin or even husker’s thanksgiving kit. There could be a grand prize for collecting all of them and even if not, it’s a bit of fun and a great throwback for the veterans. If this idea goes ahead, maybe make a thread asking the community for ideas as different people remember different things.
  

• Instagram - Create a style or theme for the page, make sure that all ingame images are shot with shaders to make it look professional and maybe have a schedule of what sorts of posts go up and when.
  
• Reddit - I'm not sure if this is already used by either Towny or creative but I know a couple of servers that have done their advertising mainly on Reddit and build a good sized community. Use it to showcase how great wok is, with the finest builds from both sides of the server.
  
• I was thinking about what WoK's unique selling point is that sets it apart from other Creative/Towny servers. The answer I came up with is Keralis. While he's back into Minecraft, see if we can arrange some videos to be created on the server. There's lots of amazing builds on Towny so why not have an admin show him around the server and show Keralis' audience what WoK is all about! Another thing we could try is to ask Keralis to create a WoKTube playlist on his page so his audience can see what happens on his server and content made by other people.
  

• The main thing for me is that events aren't being put anywhere other than in-game or on discord. Towny are hosting a PVP tournament but there will not be any new PvPers on the server as it's not being advertised on social media or even on the website!
  
• Giveaways - If there isn't already enough reasons to check out WoK, give the world another reason and get that reason out there. My suggestion would be a raffle for 6 months donator rank (0 cost to the server opposed to an Amazon voucher). Set a week and for every hour in that week a player is on, they get a ticket. Then a name is picked at random to win. You could even gain another donator from this as well if they like the perks.
  

• 1 off claim for previous donators - This could be something small like a discord badge of “Veteran Donator” or an extra ability in the hub. I think it’s a small gesture but lots of people will appreciate the thought of it. As some people have spent $100+ for it to be wiped without a nod or a thanks. If the old Enjin site is still about, maybe send a message to all users on that just saying that they can claim their little thanks if they come on. (could bring back loads of veterans just though the message to remind them of WoK.)
  
• WoK Website - This definitely needs improvement. There should be most of the features that the old Enjin site had like a staff list, news, maybe even a gallery of greatest builds. I know Beef is working on some sort of site for the server so I'll see the outcome and maybe suggest further ideas.
  

Dear ola4,

You have been banned for 7 days from WoK Towny for using an X-Ray Texture Pack.

You sent screenshots to staff in an attempt to prove another player's wrongdoing. These screenshots showed you had an xray texture pack installed at the time. You have the right to make a ban appeal in the correct forum and in the correct format.

Thank you.

Dear Lloydjyyj,

You have been banned for 3 days from WoK Towny for Lava/Obsidian Griefing & Disrespect.

You received the high end of the standard 1st offense lava griefing punishment due to previous warnings regarding your behavior towards ola4. The grief alone was not worth 3 days, but was extended due to previous warnings and the fact you also left disrespectful messages for ola4 via a hopper. You have the right to make a ban appeal in the correct forum and in the correct format.

Thank you.
