When Minecraft 1.8 comes out, previous maps will not update in the same way as a brand new map will. There will be extensive biomes and river systems.

The question is, do we keep with our old map or do we start all over again?
We shall put it down to a vote.

I really like our server at the moment, but I think we could start the spawn area off with a really well planned section if we start again. It also allows us to bring as many people as we can to our server. If we dont make a new map, i wont be that fussed. We have all put a lot of hard work into it, and it would be a shame to see it go.

I think yes, just because there'll be so much more when 1.8 comes out. Like, SO much more. Enough to make it worth it. I will archive the current world though, for nostalgia's sake, as we all put a lot of work into it. I remember when we very first connected .

I think that maybe would should plan the spawn out properly. We could do those plugins that we were talking about a while back. Have creative, SMP and PVP sections and they come out of spawn in different directions, so the player can decide which way they want to build?

That sounds like a good plan.

Then Martin HAS to play.

4 to 1 so far. I think it is looking in favour of a new map. I am excited that we can plan everything and make it look amazing.
