Forum, Livestream and Server

Posted by Luke on 01/12/2012

This blog post will talk about the forum, my livestream, the the non-existent Minecraft server :(.

First of all, the Minecraft server is not still up. It was suspended a while ago with no information, no email, no nothing. I contacted the host and never got a reply. I don't have any more news as of this moment.

Secondly, I am going to start livestreaming more often. As I settle into the livestream climate, I may be doing lots of testing and short streams. Also, since I don't have the greatest upload speed (0.72 Mbps), the livestreams may not be the greatest quality. However, I will record everything I livestream and post it on YouTube after the stream. If you don't currently follow me on Twitch.tv and you want to watch the streams, make sure you follow me to be notified when I start streaming.

I created a text-message notification service to send a text to you when I start livestreaming. If you want to get a text about 5 minutes before I start a stream (or whenever I remember to send it out before the stream), head on over to http://www.lukedude5.com/livestream/ to sign up. You can opt out anytime.

Lastly, I have been hard at work on the forum on this website for the past few days. I have made a lot of progress, and am not mostly in the process of bug fixing. I don't yet have an ETA for when it will go live, but I may quietly open it up to people who follow me on Facebook and Twitter for BETA testing.

That's all that's on my mind right now. Leave a comment if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer it!

They didn't tell you why? That seems surprising... Who were you using for your host?Livestreams are awesome :D - line break here -

I would opt in for the text-message thing, but you don't support my carrier :/ No one does though, even those people who support carriers in New Zealand... - line break here -

Good job! I was going to make my own forum, then abandoned it because I realized it would actually be hard :P - line break here -

Edit: everything is supposed to be separated with a line break, but they don't seem to be showing up, except in the editor :/

Line breaks work now :).

If you can find your carrier on the following website, I'll add them to the list.
http://www.emailtextmessages.com/

Host was redstonehosting.net or something like that.

If your going to get another server get a different host. Redstone hosting is really bad :/ They never reply back
