Happy Birthday Server! I remember when you were but a wee little lad, with a tiny-ass spawn and like 5 maps. Those were the days. I remember when I would accidentally bring the server (including those fighting in arenas in the same flatland world) to a standstill by making a volcano with voxel sniper in another part of the map. I bet that seems really weird when looking at the current network.I never thought I'd see the day when the practice server for a certain faction on a certain factions server on a certain giant network would be hitting higher player counts than the server it used to cater to.
Anyway, congrats to Archy and Gberry for having your literally insane devotion to this server pay off. You guys deserve it.

A little bit late, but -Happy birthday Badlion!
I started playing on badlion back when it had MAYBE 2 players on average, there were 5 maps, and the most common thing said in chat was "pot and go".
It's really amazing to see how much it's grown since then - from 2 players, to 2 thousand!
And I'm proud to say I've been a mod for the majority of the growth period for Badlion (starting when there were 100~ players average)
(According to JacobArnold , I was hired because Archy likes Koreans –)
During my time as a mod I've never seen anyone put in as much effort into a single thing as @MasterGberry or @Archybot , but as we can all see, it's definitely paid off, and I have a lot of respect for them for sticking through with Badlion and being so determined to make it a huge network - which it is now.
All my time on Badlion thus far as been enjoyable, and that's all thanks to Gbeary, Archy, and every other mod/seniormod/admin that's been friendly to me throughout.
So again, Happy birthday!

Also I would like to say that badlion probably has the best staff and community out there because they combat hackers well, are not pay to win or pay to play, actually puts the player first unlike shitloads of other servers and staff are real people as I they have fun and make jokes too.Posted on 08 February 2015 - 11:28 PM
To go with the clan idea, you could host larger team-based tournaments, using ideas from warfare.Posted on 09 February 2015 - 12:13 AM
This server had been through a lot! Glad to see it come this far. I remember playing on here two years ago, wow the nostalgia.Posted on 09 February 2015 - 01:24 AM

I haven't been around to have one of those big stories, but I am very proud to see how quickly Badlion is growing the past few months and the past few weeks especially.This server has the best development I've seen, from interacting with players through votes and such, to working on development till the late hours of the night, they deserve this and so much more, Kudos to them. (Especially GBerry that man is dedicated)
I'm glad I could help this server by moderating it, it's been fun times so far, and I'm here to stay :)

Sounds better than MojangPosted on 09 February 2015 - 03:21 PM
@Archybot @MasterGberry fast question, if the Soup server merge with potpvp, are you going to create a EU soup? (i mean, merging soup with pot in both eu and na servers). And what about the ranked matches?Posted on 09 February 2015 - 04:38 PM

Would merge into both server yes. And it would no longer have unlimited ranked, but would receive a bunch of other upgrades to compensate it.
