Hey! My name is thirtysketch and this post is to explain my ideas and ambitions for a new server that I plan on creating. I'll elaborate more about what my plans for this server will be below, I will make sure to keep this post updated as best as I can in order to provide the most current and correct information that I can.

Firstly, I'll start with a background of who I am and what my previous experiences are. One of my biggest passions is staffing Minecraft servers. Over the past 7 years, I've been staffed on lots of different and unique servers that have piqued my interest. My interest has changed over the past 7 years, but my main goals and ambitions have remained the same throughout my experiences. Some of the most notable staffing experiences I've put in a google doc so that I remember them and can reflect on them to help make sure that I have the correct vision of what I want this server to be (the google doc link will be at the end of this post). However, just to name a few of the ones that stand out to me without going into detail about them are the community management, staff management, and recruitment experiences that I have had over the past 7 years. The highest player count of a server that I have staffed for averaged about 300-400 people (during peak hours of the day).

Continuing, over the staffing experiences that I have had over the past 7 years one thing has always stood out to me. This one thing is that whenever I worked on a server and saw the growth and the impact on the server's community that I had, it always made me feel so proud of what I had accomplished. This feeling of satisfaction has continued to motivate me to be able to create my own server. This leads me to why I am making this post.

Over the past 7 years, I've always wanted to own a server (I've made a few small ones just for some friends but nothing really that serious). However, I've held off on making a serious server due to the fact that I wanted to feel that I was ready and that I could handle the responsibility of being an owner of a server with a significant player count. Finally, after all of these staffing experiences I've had and the motivation keep building I feel I am finally ready to create this server I've been dreaming of.

Server details: I am not entirely convinced about what gamemode(s) the server will be yet, I have a few ideas but I am open to them and hope to receive some suggestions from other members in order to help make this server successful. As of right now, I'm looking for a team of (UPDATED: , 2 mods, 2 helpers and POTENTIALLY 1 more admin (not sure yet) ) people to help me build this server up in order to make this a successful attempt at owning a server. I will update this post with how many people I need as I recruit people.

Final note: I am able to host a server financially right now. However, positions will not be paid at this time. However, if the server continues to grow and becomes successful I will start paying staff members (going from senior management all the way down to potentially the lowest staff rank one day).

Final note 2: Thank you for taking the time to read my lengthy post, as this means a lot to me and I hope I can have an impact on people and be able to create a positive memory like the owners I worked for did for me.

My best tip to you would be to not make a hub/network and to focus on creating and perfecting one gametype. Once you've built a community and have built up some experience, only then can you even begin thinking about adding other gametypes!
Thank you so much for the advice! I’ll definitely take that into account for now and focus on specifically one gametype.
