My username is RazorScythe, and I just started playing here on ManaCube a couple days ago. I travel servers to find a good Skyblock or Factions, when I came to this one and really enjoyed how unique it is and how helpful the people and staff were. I'm starting to play here as my main Skyblock server now, but there is one thing bothering me and most likely other people that I don't understand.
Why is the 1.7 version still included in the server?
I am unsure of the reasons it's included, but apart from that I will explain to you a good reasons why it shouldn't be added that most people don't know or realise.
With 1.7 included, the server obviously has to run on the 1.7 version, and in 1.7 the farming is a lot more difficult, which Skyblock is a big part of. With 1.7, crops such as nether wart, wheat and cacti will only grow while you're standing in the same chunk or very close to it. Even if part of the farm is in the chunk next to the one you're in or far on the other chunk, only the crops inside your chunk will grow and the crops in the other chunk will still be on the first stage of growing.
The second reason is that hardly anyone to no one uses 1.7, as it is a minor update compared to what 1.9 was to 1.8, which is why most server still use 1.8. Skyblock will become much more enjoyable to people who use farms, which is most people without spawners.
It would be very helpful, but not necessary, if this was replied to before the store sale ends, as I would like to buy a rank for these prices, but still unsure to buy one.
In this picture, I was standing here to grow my nether wart farm, but since it's only in the same chunk as those few grown ones up there, they grew and the rest you see didn't.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
