As we all know by now, new massivecraft players have trouble getting started, whether they got scammed out of all their money, can't get a faction started, or even getting out of regalia! Well this thread is intended to help create a guide to starting on the server. I have a few thoughts so far on how to "climb to the top."

Many new players struggle with massivecrafts economy. It is very complex and in one click a new player can use all their silver. So an easy way to start making money is saving silver! Regalia has places to buy good or houses everywhere! A good way to avoid the economic chaos in regalia is to simply get out of regalia.
Joining a faction is a good way to gather and store your crops. Joining a peaceful building and Roleplay faction is good for this to avoid getting attacked while you are gathering. After you have decided what your selling, the price, and how you will sell it, you can start making money. Sell your goods in a chest shop in a good location or on the streets of regalia. After you have made a good amount of money, you can focus on other ways to become famous on this server.
If you choose to start pvping, you should join a strong faction with many darkrooms and players with high skills. This is an easy way to become better at pvp and earn your money and items from raids and attacks. Well known pvpers are considered some of the richest and most feared players on the server. Be aware that pvp takes much time and frustration, so if you are easily enraged, this may not be the best choice for you.
Becoming well known in the community is fairly simple. Easy ways to get people to recognize your name are to; help people or converse alot in chat, if your name keeps popping up, they will get to know you a bit better. Another good way is to become active on teamspeak and forums, this way other players can get to know you much better. Lastly is to plan events. People love to attend rp events and festivals, and planning a large event can get you several new friends

Now once you have done a few things in that list, you should have a decent start on the server, and can continue striving to become one of the most well known players on the server. If anyone has any questions or comments feel free to post below!
 
Several more.... unorthodox ways to become well-known:
1.Start a 5 month war with a well-known faction
2. Open up a bank that may or may not sound similar to your username.
3.Make a faction who's entire goal is dedicated to being evil
4.Get 3 alt accounts, then have one alt account accuse the other of plagiarism
5.Get banned, then do a ban appeal and when the admins unban you ignore all their warnings and advertise your own server.
6. Start a huge flame war accusing the staff of Massive of being corrupt.
7.Spawn an enderdragon at the server spawn.
8. find and abuse a portal you find to a creative world on Massive to give yourself thousands upon thousands of diamonds.

Note: A side effect of using these methods to become well-known is sometimes a permanent ban.
 
Posting to the forums can help as well. It's as much a part of the community as the server and Teamspeak is.
 
It would be great to have a guide, perhaps start a conversation with anyone wanting to help? I have been on the server/forums for a bout a month now, and you just got to be patient. If you try to force yourself on people, you will wind up making more enemies than friends.

Jomdorr It was at silveredge, ItsNickBarry was banned a looooooong time ago. I don't exactly remember how it happened.
 
How did itsnickbarry spawn an endear dragon at spawn, was this at regalia?

He was a level 3 staff member, same rank as MonMarty and Igel_Son have/used to have. He abused the position horribly though near the end of his time here and even went so far as to try and destroy Massivecraft via hacking.

Was he the ddoser? My brother was a part of pristina when it was dying

ddoser? Dafuq is that? Oh, understand that Pristina has had... 3 empires I think. The First Pristina Empire rose and fell with ItsNickBarry. The Second Pristina Empire rose and fell with myself and bubbleman134. The Third Pristina Empire sputtered out without becoming a real empire, the ruins of that one are sitting on a mountain/plateau in Ellador, southwest.
 
There was a third Pristina Empire?

Yeah, after Osion collapsed into ruin the Second Rising came to an end for Pristina (back in Deandroc). Then they started to build again in Ellador but they puttered out without really making an empire, though they called themselves one. Pristina and Serenum have very similar past's really.
 
just how many factions/empires have you run/owned on this server?

Officer in VSTC when it was part of Pristina the First, Part-Owner of VSTC when P the 1st collapsed, Part own of Osion during the Ventari-Osion war, Full owner of Osion during the Deandroc Expansion Era, Founded The Osion Empire (subfactions: Zion, Vesti-something, Black Magic[they rebelled], several others), Founded Osai, Created Osai Nation (Zion, a few others), Currently lead Hisoka, currently own Docktown and Rajia(or something similar lol), Founded the Mirk Alliance (group of friendly factions).

So yeah, my entire history in a nutshell right there. Just left out the Edosaku bit when I left VSTC because I loathed one of their members.
 
Just curious, am I the only subfaction owner you have who hasn't rebelled/gone inactive?

Eugh. I have to pass that place on my way home to Syracuse every time. :\

Hmmz... yes, yes you are. I wuv you favoured (H)

...how long have you been on the server

1 year and 5 months (MasterMachine100 was my original account, but it migrated). That's as long as Igel_Son, longer then Tom1804 and MonMarty and Wessexstock. I'm far older then McMuffin, Dam94, and SoTotallyAce. I'm old enough to remember when the expansion of Ceardia was the big thing to look forward to, back in the days when Deandroc wasn't even a concept and the big hitters were the First Pristina Empire and Alamut. I remember really early on in my time I gave Cowboys loads of cobble so he could build a wall somewhere. Hell, I remember when SilverEdge was small and clean looking!

Eugh. I have to pass that place on my way home to Syracuse every time. :\

Haha, bummer. I have to pass by... whatevertheirnamewas's base to get to Seacrest. Ugly ass wall -_-
