[12:49:40 PM] Eric-Storm: See you are trying to create your own Clash of clans server xD
[12:49:57 PM] Joseph O'Brien: how ya doin
[12:53:01 PM] Joseph O'Brien: but ya that's why I was talking to you ab yours
[12:53:21 PM] Joseph O'Brien: wanted to buy it
[12:53:31 PM] Eric-Storm: Wouldn't have been able to afford it tbh
[12:53:51 PM] Joseph O'Brien: you never really talked about it, so yeah
[12:53:56 PM] Joseph O'Brien: not sure
[12:54:15 PM] Joseph O'Brien: but ye we'll see how it goes :)
[12:54:18 PM] Eric-Storm: 33k~/ month rn so would of had to been a large amount :p
[12:54:25 PM] Eric-Storm: How you planning on doing advertising?
[12:54:35 PM] Joseph O'Brien: can't say
[12:54:41 PM] Eric-Storm: ahuh
[12:54:43 PM] Eric-Storm: well good luck
[12:54:49 PM] Joseph O'Brien: ;3 thanks Eric
[12:54:54 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Sorry I kept it on the DL
[12:55:17 PM] Eric-Storm: People copy servers all the time in MC, isn't to surprising to be honest haha
[12:55:35 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I've been working on this for ages mah manz
[12:55:47 PM] Eric-Storm: Curious to see how similar you copied the mechanics of my server :)
[12:55:52 PM] Joseph O'Brien: If I bought you out, I would have dropped your gamemode anyway
[12:56:05 PM] Eric-Storm: You couldn't have gotten near to buying me out :p
[12:56:07 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I mean it serves a great purpose
[12:56:16 PM] Joseph O'Brien: but we'll see
[12:56:26 PM] Eric-Storm: How closely are you copying the mechanics of my server?
[12:56:33 PM] Joseph O'Brien: idek how your server works
[12:56:37 PM] Joseph O'Brien: never figured out how to play it
[12:56:42 PM] Eric-Storm: Im sure you haven't ;)
[12:56:53 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I talked to the devs you scammed tho
[12:57:00 PM] Eric-Storm: Uhm, and which devs are those?
[12:57:06 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Gilles was one of them
[12:57:09 PM] Eric-Storm: lmao
[12:57:10 PM] Eric-Storm: Gilles
[12:57:12 PM] Eric-Storm: from 2.0
[12:57:13 PM] Joseph O'Brien: incompetent bastard he was
[12:57:18 PM] Eric-Storm: I didn't scam him, he gave me a shit plugin
[12:57:24 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I'm not surprised
[12:57:26 PM] Eric-Storm: I don't pay for shit plugins :p
[12:57:40 PM] Joseph O'Brien: well, I deal differently with the moral aspect
[12:57:47 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I just make sure I don't have shit devs
[12:58:00 PM] Joseph O'Brien: but I make sure they're paid if they work
[12:58:09 PM] Eric-Storm: I deal by how the real world works
[12:58:20 PM] Eric-Storm: If I hire somebody to make me something, and it doesn't work, they don't get paid
[12:58:36 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I've never been in that situation so ye
[12:58:58 PM] Eric-Storm: Anyway, is your server in third person or does it play in first person?
[12:59:13 PM] Joseph O'Brien: you'll see soon
[12:59:32 PM] Eric-Storm: When you launching?
[12:59:42 PM] Joseph O'Brien: soon;p
[12:59:49 PM] Eric-Storm: Got youtubers lined up?
[1:00:00 PM] Joseph O'Brien: can't say
[1:00:00 PM] Eric-Storm: Or you one of the kids acting like he signed an NDA  and pretending he cant tell? xD
[1:00:06 PM] Eric-Storm: ah so the second one
[1:00:08 PM] Joseph O'Brien: just don't want you knowing
[1:00:40 PM] Joseph O'Brien: no NDA but there's no reason why you need to know the backend
[1:01:04 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya, hope you didn't blatantly copy the mechanics of my server
[1:01:27 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I wouldn't be going out and doing this if I did
[1:01:47 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I had this idea before I even realized people had made an attempt at it, and at that time you were closed
[1:02:09 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya, hope you didn't blatantly copy the mechanics of my server
[1:02:17 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I wouldn't be going out and doing this if I did
[1:02:43 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I had this idea in other words, the idea of making a Clash of Clans server, not your server mechanics
[1:03:12 PM] Eric-Storm: Is yours more of like a app style game
[1:03:24 PM] Eric-Storm: like a re make of the game itself, or like mine where its first person and more like a skyblock prison mix
[1:03:29 PM] Eric-Storm: Like for example, do you have a resource world?
[1:03:47 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I know what you're asking, I'd rather surprise you tho
[1:04:05 PM] Joseph O'Brien: and surprise the rest of humanity with this contribution
[1:04:31 PM] Eric-Storm: Right, you do see my concern though right? :p
[1:04:41 PM] Joseph O'Brien: you're making sure I didn't steal your idea
[1:04:50 PM] Eric-Storm: Basically ya
[1:05:06 PM] Eric-Storm: I don't want to end up being those two guys who go at eachother because one thinks he stole the others concept
[1:05:09 PM] Joseph O'Brien: no I didn't take your idea bro, I really don't like your concept
[1:05:18 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I barely know your concept
[1:05:33 PM] Joseph O'Brien: It's no offense to you, I just wasn't really into it
[1:05:45 PM] Joseph O'Brien: By the time I joined your server, the whole mainframe was complete
[1:06:05 PM] Joseph O'Brien: So either I completely restarted just to copy you (why would I do that?) or I continued with my original plan
[1:06:16 PM] Eric-Storm: You seen my newest version or just the previous ones?
[1:06:31 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I've seen the craftofclans.net one
[1:06:36 PM] Joseph O'Brien: with the new promo vids
[1:07:03 PM] Joseph O'Brien: the one you have now basically
[1:07:05 PM] Eric-Storm: ya, my concept honestly was never even meant to be clash of clans
[1:07:17 PM] Eric-Storm: Only reason it turned into it actually was due to request of the youtuber
[1:07:24 PM] Eric-Storm: was originally just meant to be a nations at war server haha
[1:07:25 PM] Joseph O'Brien: that's so foolish
[1:07:33 PM] Eric-Storm: I like where its headed now though
[1:07:34 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I mean, you're using the trademark
[1:07:35 PM] Joseph O'Brien: yeah
[1:07:37 PM] Joseph O'Brien: to each his own
[1:08:06 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I'm not trying to step on toes, I just didn't want to put this to light awhile ago
[1:08:19 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I also did not copy you
[1:08:29 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya I don't care about the clash of clans aspect
[1:08:37 PM] Eric-Storm: as long as it isn't like a very similar server to mine
[1:08:40 PM] Eric-Storm: shall be all good :p
[1:08:45 PM] Joseph O'Brien: from what I've seen, we're nothing at all alike
[1:08:53 PM] Joseph O'Brien: except the "Clash of Clans" name
[1:09:05 PM] Joseph O'Brien: which kinda sucks tbh but whatever
[1:09:19 PM] Eric-Storm: I mean is yours third person or first person
[1:09:34 PM] Eric-Storm: Idk what you think I would do with an answer to that question xD
[1:09:44 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Trying to think in my mind the consequences of answering
[1:10:01 PM] Joseph O'Brien: lmao give me two seconds, I don't want to piss people off
[1:10:18 PM] Eric-Storm: The answer would piss people off? xD
[1:15:12 PM] Joseph O'Brien: nah like, giving this crap out to you might make some people wonder what I'm doing
[1:15:20 PM | Edited 1:15:46 PM] Joseph O'Brien: as in, why in hell I would tell you (they would be wondering)
[1:15:26 PM] Eric-Storm: I wont be putting this conversation anywhere else
[1:15:54 PM] Joseph O'Brien: if you like do some searching you can find miscellaneous threads, little online breadcrumbs, about the server
[1:16:17 PM] Eric-Storm: Just curious about the basic mechanics, not as if I can steal them or do anything with them
[1:16:28 PM] Joseph O'Brien: it's third person, not like yours at all
[1:16:35 PM] Eric-Storm: OK, awesome
[1:16:44 PM] Eric-Storm: In that case sorry for my original snarky / rude messages
[1:16:54 PM] Eric-Storm: Was just concerned we were gonna have an issue :p
[1:16:58 PM] Joseph O'Brien: ahh
[1:17:16 PM] Joseph O'Brien: yeah I was about to just remove you lol wasn't sure what you were trying to do
[1:17:23 PM] Joseph O'Brien: but good we cleared that up
[1:17:36 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya I have had some people attempt to totally rip off my mechanics
[1:17:42 PM] Eric-Storm: Always have to be on alert in this community haha
[1:18:00 PM] Joseph O'Brien: yeah, I've seen lots of "Clash of Clans" servers
[1:18:02 PM] Joseph O'Brien: lots being like
[1:18:04 PM] Joseph O'Brien: more than 2
[1:18:10 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya, they are all really bad though :p
[1:18:13 PM] Joseph O'Brien: and just idk they all suck
[1:18:16 PM] Joseph O'Brien: yeah
[1:18:30 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I'm still stuck on the fact they made you term your server Clash of Clans themed
[1:18:38 PM] Eric-Storm: Well I wasn't forced into anything
[1:18:49 PM] Eric-Storm: I chose to go that route, as its better for player retention etc
[1:18:56 PM] Eric-Storm: and in this version we have a lot of clash of clans aspects so
[1:19:09 PM] Joseph O'Brien: alright, yeah I see what you mean
[1:19:18 PM] Eric-Storm: Its not like clash of clans to the dot, but the raiding, towers, currencys are all the same
[1:19:27 PM] Joseph O'Brien: we'll see how it goes, I'm not out to hurt anyone / damage servers
[1:19:45 PM] Joseph O'Brien: just here to have a good time and gain some valuable experiences
[1:19:59 PM] Joseph O'Brien: although that doesn't mean I'm doing it half-ass
[1:20:02 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya Minecraft is good for that with the right opportunity's
[1:20:13 PM] Eric-Storm: also really good place to make some serious cash haha
[1:20:32 PM] Joseph O'Brien: yeah, that's a goal too haha but I want to make sure everything is covered
[1:21:11 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I'll let you know when we release, not to rub it in of course, just because you're not an ass about it
[1:21:39 PM] Eric-Storm: Ya excited to see how it works
[1:22:44 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Any idea how islandclash works?
[1:22:54 PM] Eric-Storm: haha
[1:22:57 PM] Eric-Storm: Don't get me started
[1:23:07 PM] Eric-Storm: That server, props to them for putting together a high quality server
[1:23:13 PM] Eric-Storm: But its player retention is horrible
[1:23:21 PM] Eric-Storm: First week it was hitting 2k players online
[1:23:26 PM] Eric-Storm: Now its capping at like, 150
[1:23:35 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Jesus
[1:23:50 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Is it Clash of Clans themed
[1:23:54 PM] Eric-Storm: Eh not really
[1:23:56 PM] Eric-Storm: At all
[1:23:58 PM] Joseph O'Brien: I've not got time to play it
[1:24:07 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Don't they also use the trademark
[1:24:11 PM] Eric-Storm: they have basically 0 aspects from clash of clans
[1:24:15 PM] Eric-Storm: They are more like age of empires
[1:24:36 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Damn, that's crazy
[1:24:50 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Yeah they were the other group I've remembered
[2:22:46 PM] Joseph O'Brien: How'd ya find out btw?
[2:22:59 PM] Eric-Storm: Saw your thread on mc forum or something
[2:23:03 PM] Eric-Storm: one of my staff linked it
[2:24:55 PM] Joseph O'Brien: Ah ok
