High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
Its all relative, is factions less popular than it was say 6-7 years ago? No question. But is it dead to the extent that you can't make a good server and that decently sized faction servers don't exist? I don't think it has.
yeah but all the big owners like me left factions and it fell apart a bit there where a few of us that ran large servers you have to understand from a owners point of view factions is one of the hardest to run properly and the least cost effective i am looking to redo factions with a twist but for that reason i won't be calling it factions.
It's not just that, the community is extremely toxic.
It is definitely aduable community, but there are really two types of factions - casual and competitive; I say it’s easy to open a competitive server and gain players as there is fewer competitive servers then there was years prior, leading a good new server to have early success but most likely not long term. Casual factions has a lot less toxicity more development costs and a community that takes a bit of time to gain; it does in fact make the most money right now and is the most fun to play.
The question you have to ask yourself is am I willing to make <$1,000 a week or around that margin and deal with the stress as well as put together the time to own a server with a toxic community.
Or
Would you rather own a 1.17 server with a mcmarket survival setup and make the same margins with half the work and dedication.
