CaribbeanMC (70 playerbase, $351 in donations)

[Vip]

Hey everyone, as you may or may not know I’m Vip. Owner of CaribbeanMC.com. Today I come to you guys with an offer to sell my server. The reason behind me selling it is. I start school this September. Another year of learning and improving my education I really have no time to run a factions server while handling my social life and my education. CaribbeanMC is a faction server which released late July and got nearly 100 members on release (from just discord, no youtubers). Then throughout the season, it got 50-70 players online at all times. Including a total of 351 dollars in donations (shown below). Caribbean S1 ended shortly due to a dupe glitch we missed in beta. Although it ended shortly it didn’t really lose the player base when we released S2 (which is currently done). Season 2 averaged around the same amount of members as season 1. The server has great potential and huge assets (listed below). You’ll be receiving the full server ownership and resell rights (exclusive resell rights only) meaning you cannot sell this to more than one person or use it as a pre-made setup.

Assets:

1. The files - Caribbean has advanced files on the plugin side many custom little things like /features etc. The development team and I took things to a new level when developing the server. From custom messages, to all up to date features, to even the little likes like NPCs. When developing this server, unlike any server we actually considered fitting the name into the aspects of the server. “Caribbean”MC is featured in the server by how the spawn has a crashed boat and how the world is custom themed to fit the feeling of Caribbean.
2. The builds - The spawn that comes with the server is somewhat leaked due to world downloaders. I purchased this spawn in 2016. It came with a server I bought known as ReflectedMC. Proof it was in the setup is here () I bought the server from XBiscut and another owner I cannot remember. In the video you will see the spawn (video posted almost two years ago). So I have the files uploaded to dropbox here they are, features such as custom wands, etc. https://gyazo.com/bc802ce2204ca53ee575af3dc7b274f7
3. The custom 6k by 6k world. The world is Caribbean themed to fit the server. It has large bodies of water but also large islands. Since it is factions we had to keep a lot of land to build bases
4. The 847 member discord. (Linked below). The discord comes fully setup with all the needed roles and channels. I’ve ?purged all channels that players can talk in. The discord also has many faction leaders and you tubers for you to get easy assess to ads and rosters.
5. The logo. The logo (displayed at the top of this thread) is fully custom and was made awhile ago when I owned the server with a couple of my buds who have quit MC sadly. You’ll have full rights to the logo.
6. The domain. Unlike a lot of servers the domain is CaribbeanMC.com. A “.com” domain is worth more than a “.net” domain and it displays the server in a better/more professional way.
7. The website. Our website is pretty basic and made by yours truly DarkKnight (Caribbeanmc.com)
8. The staff. Caribbean’s staff are very professional and run off the guidelines. As much as I’d love for them to stay on the server we cannot guarantee they will. They aren’t under any sort of contract meaning we cannot force them to be staff on Caribbean. BUT we will not manipulate them to leave.
9. The Buycraft. The server made a total of 351 dollars within two seasons which were cut short sadly due to minor bugs BUT hard to fix bugs. Proof of donations: https://i.gyazo.com/thumb/1200/f5fc9ec70a31e284a83c89fd6934b3c6-png.jpg I know for a fact if the server stayed up a couple more days we’d get to 500. A good owner and good leader will always know the best ways to increase sales
10. The reputation. As many of the members said the reputation is “ruined”. I disagree. The reputation is really good. The players still wanna play the server, the players still wanna donate, and the players would love to continue to interact. Thats what makes me think the reputation isn’t ruined. As if you still have the PB how could the reputation be ruined?

Those are our 10 assets (possibly more, not sure if I missed any)

Things you’ll not be getting:

1. Premium plugins. It is illegal to redistribute premium plugins so the folder will be in the files all you have to do is download the files and upload the jars (List of premium plugins will be provided)
2. The /warp pvp. It’s a resource which I cannot redistribute. BUT the server comes with a custom boat koth which is already on the server near spawn.
3. The /ce this is a resource from MCM.

So, I was an Admin here for some time as when Centuries (another previous owner before he resigned) moved here I alongside some other staff of OctaneMC came as well. Release took a long time, lots of planning and such, and honestly there was LOTS of issues. The server was great, but there were so many issues, the server had to go down multiple times, the TPS always spiked low, it was a big lagstorm time to time. I was demoted once by Vip, without being notified at all, then centuries had to add it back. Eventually, Centuries resigned due to what he says Vip wasn't cooperating/helping etc. not really my business. At the time I was in charge of buycraft vouchers (providing them to players for rosters and invite rewards) but then again I was randomly demoted and players I was supposed to help I couldn't do so; so I just left it alone and didn't bother to see why it got removed.

This isn't really a devouch, the server can go great in the right hands, but during my experience and I'm sure lots of the players could say the same that the server wasn't really stable.


During release the server peaked sometimes to 80-100 people, but around 15 people (bots) sometimes got kicked, so really there were only 50-60 actual people online.

GLWS[DOUBLEPOST=1534289909][/DOUBLEPOST]
He's right, there were tons of bots during the release I saw with my own eyes and so did the other staff. Huge groups of players being kicked at once with the same IPs too

I appreciate the effort put into this message. But from what I know I never demoted you I was never in charge of the staff but yes I demoted/hired some people when I had to but I don't remember demoting you and if I did demote you I own DM you just like I did with the other staff. The thing between me and Centuries was childish and full of drama on both ends. I don't think there were as many issues as you think. It was mainly the number of people complaining about their buycraft rewards which flooded staff. Dupe glitch was patched and border glitch was patched. Your saying bots but they were alts and there was only like 10-15 of them. Once again thank you for the message. Anything else please do DM me.

he paid out the first week of season1 as only buycraft, season2 he never paid it out.

S2 was ended within an hour I wouldn't payout for that. Neither would I call it a season. Regarding S1 the players voted for it to be BC.

No offense, but if you have a '70-playerbase', but only make less than 400$ it means that either most players are alts, or they are spoofed. Also, are selling the server to avoid having to pay the f-top prize?

Avoid paying FTOP? This is what I hate about the MC Community. They see one scammer and they think everyone else is a scammer. Considering my reputation on MCM and everywhere else do you think I would risk the scam? I find that really dumb for you to think I'd pass on FTOP. I have too good of a reputation to ruin it.

700 CAD, yet can't list it. Bullshit.[DOUBLEPOST=1534287603][/DOUBLEPOST]Also if you are trying to sell something I recommend not saying that it's not my business, cause ya if I am going to pay over price on a server I want to know all the details.

Alright bud. I DMed you exactly the purchases with the 700 CAD Enjoy.

wheww

A few weeks ago you were offering to sell this server to me for a BIN price of $350. The server hasn’t released since then so what made it more than double in value?

 

[Hyfe]

Vouch for Vip!

 

[Vip]

I can vouch the playerbase. It's at a average 40 not including bots. The only bots were mine. My faction is the biggest faction playing with 50 discord members and 30 active players. (Chopsticks)
I cannot vouch VIP as a owner. My staff friend leaked many issues of abuse throughout the staff team and VIP letting staff get away with certain issues. As well as a staff botting the discord with proof.
But nonetheless it has nothing to do with the server being sold nor the playerbase and staff can always be removed and cut once purchased.
Hope everything goes well.
Hope VIP dies.
Good luck on the sale!

You concern me. I'm just joking. Thanks for the vouch/devouch xD. Also thanks for the death message/note but I don't think I'll die anytime soon.

Not trying to trash but I was on release for season 2, don't know anything about season 1. Wasn't playing just observing.

There was a maximum of like 50 players online for the first hour, then after like 3-4 hours the server went down for "maintenance" and never opened up again. (I assume since the release flopped and they knew they weren't going to make the money to pay out the ftop prize, they closed the server.)

Most of the players (about 26) came from the faction Incision and I saw some of their members say "where's my buycraft credit" in chat, so I assume the owners paid them buycraft credit to play.

Can't vouch for the server but vouch for Vip and Precisioning

So the buycraft vouchers were given to the factions with big rosters (shown in the discord #faction-claim chat). We made it clear for the players that they must have the faction members in their roster before requesting their voucher because aren't just gonna give vouchers for free. It was to motivate bigger factions to play. The thing is we could pay for FTOP thats not why we closed it down. I explain why we closed it down but to add to what you said. Any server owner including you should know most players wont donate until they actually play the server. Obviously, you cannot compare us to archon or a huge server as it's pretty small compared to those servers. I hope that made sense.

Vouch great and lovely server!

Thank you.

Vouch for Vip!

Thank you.

Since then the assets grew and became worth more as we added more stuff. Also, the player base has increased since then. I'm not sure if offered to sell it to you while it was up. Maybe I offered you the price when it wasn't up like before S1.

 

[Vip]

Yeah agreed, most players don't donate until they play the server for a little.

I didn't mention anything about the archon?

I'm just using it as an example. Dw about that part.

I just wanna add like others here,
You really can't say "60-70 playerbase" on a faction server especially.
Many times, those with fairly large cactus farm & spawner grinder will have 10-20alts. (Depending on size, this can easily be bigger if second or a very large one is made.)
I personally dont know how many faction had cactus farm to load alts for.

 

[Miles]

I'm in question about the playerbase and the server itself as you made $351 in 2 seasons while claiming to have a 70 playerbase.
Seeing as my server made $380 in 3 days with the same size playerbase... it just doesnt make sense. It almost feels like there is something wrong with it, or some level of a catch.

I will bid $75 if you are accepting bids for less.

There weren't as many cactus farms as you might think there is. There was probably a max of 2-3 good cactus farms which MIGHT have required alts to be on. Also, note there was a 7 player alt limit and we can't tell which are alts unless we do /dupeip.

So we made 300 in three days of S1. We didn't really have a season two because it was legit for a few hours then went into maintenance. Season one lasted a week or a little bit less. The bid will not be noted as it's way too small for all the assets your getting.

For everyone here, seeing this, I would like to write a long paragraph explaining the server history.

So starting off, I was invited by one of my friends to play Caribbean. Once I logged on the server looked pretty custom, well made and made me want to play with my faction. So believe it or not, I played with my faction. My faction did pretty well, played with some other competitive factions and the playerbase was pretty legit. There where alts (Yes, that's a faction essentials) but not to much where the playerbase was all alts. Moving on, we where about 3 days into the map and the drama began. Centuries (one of the owners for map 1) got into something with VIP where a lot of things happened. So first, Centuries abused and exposed Dupe glitches, he also didn't really care about the server because it was going to "fail" after tnt enabled. The playerbase really liked Centuries because he pretty much carried the server for Map 1. So what happened was Drama happened, causing the server to lose rep, and dupe glitches caused a end to the map. We where faction top 1 and got nothing of the promised faction top prize. The map was ended, and Centruies pretty much fake left the community. Anyways, after that VIP decided that he would become owners with Precisioning. He was a good guy who wanted the server to succeed, and so they release Map 2. Not that many factions played at all and there where a TON of bugs on map 2. This caused the map too close early. So pretty much the rep for this server is neutral. Anyways, this is what happened being a member of the community.

Please note when purchasing.

Perfect way to explain everything thank you. The bugs in map to were limited to only a couple which have been fixed and tested.

Make the thread sticky

Maybe..
