High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
Was staff on this server for a few months and can vouch for iXinner. The community is great- few toxic members and no DDoSing, DoXing, pizzas, that kind of thing. The server made ridiculous amounts of money, iirc it made 9k in one month over the summer in 2017. The owner lost interest, simple as that. It's not shady at all; if you don't believe the bids are valid then go trash another thread.
I agree with those who want to see the bidders, etc. It does seem a bit shady. I used to play on this server but I can tell you the setup quality became to decline pretty fast after they hired "Developers" (even though they just configured plugins), redid the color theme and added Kingdoms, which was a failure in my opinion because of the setup quality. Another problem would be the bias staff, as I know some staff were quite bias. A revamp could boost everything about the server, and proper advertising would get it pretty far.
GLWS.
GLWS.
Any justification for that or are you just a narcissist? I could say the same thing about your response and it would the same weight, which is none at all.Simply because you said we are trashing the thread makes your whole response invalid.
Wrong. You are asking borderline worthless questions and complaining about not getting responses. Truthfully, that's probably one of the most unvarnished examples of trashing, so I don't completely understand why you deny it. The owner does not have to disclose who is making the bid. As I said in my previous post, if you doubt a bid's validity, then find another thread.

I wasn't aware you believed, especially when you've said so three times already after hopping on the bandwagon with no idea of what is actually happening.
Oh, that makes this a tough sell. No matter if assets were stolen or sold, they’re out there.
Played and staffed on Zerania for several months. I recently quit Minecraft and server management after working on about 15 different servers, so I'll release what I know about this server now to keep whatever people that come across this thread from wasting their own time.
Assets and Server Quality:
All factions and kingdoms assets were taken by a developer and possibly more upon closing, rendering them worthless. Kingdoms had replaced OP Factions since it was overwhelmingly buggy, but without proper resources or time, the result ended up in worse quality than before. Both servers were then reset with the intent to be re-released, but this was never done. The peak sales the server made was within the first few days the prison server had opened, which also died quick and then had to close due to having a game-breaking dupe bug that they had no developers to fix. This leaves the skyblocks. OP Skyblock is close to a vanilla skyblock, and minion skyblock boasted the largest community in the last months for its "custom" minion plugin, which can now be found for free online, whether or not it was originally custom. Both servers, yet again because of a lack of experienced or qualified developers, became not only stagnant with features but also bug-ridden. In addition, management became either increasingly abusive or inactive, and those that did have the "developer" role did nothing but small configs on plugins that were useless to the overall diminishing server health.
Bidders and Offers:
About the offers above $4k, iXinner told admins that they were both troll bidders (possibly the same person). However, probably because of a combination of both convenient server inflation and pride, he didn't release this knowledge to the public.
Community:
There is none. First of all, he doesn't technically own any discord server for the community because his discord server was given away by his ex-partner, Surx (like Vexingly above me said). This discord server is now being used for a different server that has been in development since May named Zetaverse, which I also managed for some time. Of the ~400 members in the discord, about 30 are active. To make matters worse, the majority of these 30 are only active because they are the staff of the server. This server has the same issue as Zerania with considerably stagnant growth, development, and community neglect, and as a result, has an ever-declining playerbase before even releasing.
Conclusion:
Despite Zerania's "legacy", this buy would be a terrible choice on anyone's part, as you would essentially be spending thousands for a broken server with no players. If you were to have such a budget, starting a server from scratch using the same amount of money would grant you a much more successful server.
