Hello there, I'm BornAsEpic,. I've been playing on this server for over 6 years, I've had countless of factions, mostly norse history based. I loved Building them in Jorrhild and ellador since those worlds had most of snowy bioms which I loved. They were really cool to build on them since most of the norse(skyrim,vikings) had their kingdoms in north.

So, I've built plenty of them, BUT, since my job, which is really demanding, I lost every single one of them. I work as a nurse in a hospital called "rebro" in Zagreb, my shifts are Daily and night shifts.

So for example, if I work Daily shift I start at 7 in the morning and finish at 19:00 in the evening, and if I work night shift, I start at 19:00 and finish at 7:00. So, my shift lasts for 12 hours, and in between I need to socialize and I have other hobbies other than gaming, and for that reason, I'm not very active.

Recently, I got back one of my old cities called "Hjalmar" since one of the players that had it, couldn't keep it. I put a lot of effort in it, and I started to build on it again, improving some of the builds and adding some of decorations. It's located in Jorrhild and as you all Know, Jorrhild is getting removed soon.

I made an application for it to be moved to north biome of New Ceardia, I still didn't get any response, but I've asked in HELP chat for some instructions. I didn't know if I had to claim the land the faction is being moved to and the rules didn't state any (https://forums.massivecraft.com/threads/relocation-app-for-safaf-by-dasdsa.62440/).

So as you ask for help, people respond. First I got respond from my old friend which played on this server almost as long as me, saying he thinks that they're only claiming it so noone else could claim it. I thought, oh well that's okay, and in the meantime, I got a message from the staff member, which I wont name.

So he said: - You have to claim the land which the faction is being moved to

I simply find that stupid, because I recently got the claim back, and I used some of my friends to get the power so I could claim it. I simply don't have enough power to claim 100 chunks of land and hold it for that long.

I asked him if there was any other way and he continued to state that my faction wont be moved, since it is inactive faction(there is no people inside the faction that do something), so I said, I do, I build in it.

His words were: "I could build on a flat area and ask for that to be moved"

We had a debate for roughly 15-20 minutes. People that build their faction, and workedn improving it day by day wont have their land moved because the faction is inactive? Why? It's not my fault, it's not others fault that they have work, other hobbies, it's MassiveCrafts fault because they are deleting the world. It's not my fault that the playerbase that playsfaction is ruined by the fact that there are too many other worlds. I've built my faction and I'm still Building it and it should be moved.

His words on the end of the conversation were, "maybe you shouldn't lead the faction". I love my style, I love my faction, and I like to build on it. I recently got back active, and I constantly keep on improving it. Why would someone that loves doing something stop doing it because he has other stuff to do. I'm not a kid anymore that played constantly 6-7 years ago.

Other people, again, wont name it, went inactive because one of their family members died, and if he comes back and desires for that SUPER DUPER nicely town to be moved, they wont do it because it's not active. It will be active, people have other stuff to do.

I ask you to move those "inactive" factions because people are still Building there, working on it, but maybe they don't have time to recruit 5-10 other people so the faction could be "active" again.

Thanks in advance for reading this, I'm simply stating facts that one of staff members told me, sorry for my bad English.
 
This thread is a little dated. Two staff members have already spoken to him and advised that as long as he is actively getting on and using the faction, even if irregularly, we will do our best to move it.

There is currently a lot of work and college in the same time. I can't get on even for 10 minutes. Exams suck. Hope the staff wont mind it.
 
Just as a question that is pertinent here, I've heard rumors that we need to be measuring our builds and splitting them into separate apps if they are over a certain size, and I was wondering what truth that holds (haven't heard anything from an actual stuff, but it still seems reasonable) And also, should we be concerned if our apps are taking much longer than other factions that are of similar size and have had apps for similar amounts of time?
