Lodainn Minecraft Server

ChampionofAiur here.

I often think about the days of Lodainn and how much they influenced me for several years of my life. Lodainn wouldn't be the last server I would become a community member of, but for a couple pretty rough years of my personal life you guys served as a much needed escape and almost a second family, and it helped me grow into the person who I am today.

Tarn, I think I speak for just about everyone when I say you were and will always be an awesome member of our community, and you were DEFINITELY a massive part of that second family I mentioned. Nothing will ever change that.

Bilko, count me in for anything! Same goes to anyone else - for the last four years I've had unreliable access to internet, but now I finally am back in the "civilized" world of high speed internet and am hungry for some Minecraft multiplayer!

...Looking back - I think most of the draw of the server, was from accidental skinner-box mechanics, making it extremely hard to do things that in regular survival that would be super easy (like, how much was I "charging" for a house? I'm sure it was insane). With a ton of admin abuse thrown on top. I don't think any of us would put up with that kind of thing now we're older, and I wouldn't enjoy acting like that either.
Plus, in terms of actual buildings - I'm pretty sure we could all put together much better looking designs now than we did back then.

Anyway, I don't know if any of you remember that "Minecraft Cities/Conquest" idea I was toying with after deleting the server for a 3rd time. Let's just say, development resumed :)

Hope you're all doing well in life, this server was a major chapter in my life - and it actually led to me getting my current career in software development. I appreciate the time you all put into making it a fun place.

Hey Tarn,

Great to hear from you, no worries at all - I think one of the most important things about a fully online community like that, was being able to be whoever you wanted to.
It sounds like you've found your identity since then, so congrats - that's great!

Was just searching around last night to see if I could pull any remnants of this server together - just got back into Minecraft and you know...it's a temptation.
Unfortunately, I can't find a single backup that I've kept, and the company that we ran the servers with is well out of business by now.
Lodainn is unfortunately - resigned to our memories. But probably for the best; we were all 10 years younger, and I don't actually agree with how we ran the server back then at all.

Hey y'all,

Tarnias here. I've got to be honest with y'all - I'm not the girl you might have thought I was, just a very confused queer kid who didn't understand how to express himself honestly online. I'd appreciate it if you kept that to yourselves, but I understand if you feel the need to speak openly about it.

I'm running a public MC server again, and it would be wild to see you guys in-game again. If you ever feel like joining, you are more than welcome.

Wow wasn’t expecting to find you all! This is onesurferdude.

For anyone whois interested, launched a server, custom map, improved city-building mechanics, player-driven economy, roleplay, and some regulars. 149.202.28.226 and http://149.202.28.226:8123/ the second is the dynamic map, if you wish to see the map.
