Welcome to Monkey Mines, a cooperative Minecraft server community!
We are a small community interested in building and creating while collectively fighting off monsters! Monkey Mines has very few mods on it and we are trying (as much as possible while still providing grief protection) to run the vanilla minecraft server.
That being said, we are using McMyAdmin to run our server because it allows us to professionally host it off-site instead of off of one of our members home computers. Even our moderators do not have access to a lot of extra commands other than those Notch Jeb makes available to every player. We choose to play Minecraft like Mojang intends Minecraft to be played... at least for now. Lately we've been discussing trying out some adventure-type mods Once official support for Mods is implimented in the game, we will discuss with our member base which mods we may or may not add and decide as a community.
We are using professional server hosting provided to us by a company called FragNet, a U.S. based hosting company, and Monkey Mines runs 24/7 with only a quick scheduled restart in the middle of the night to reset java resources.
Also we're on YouTube! Two of our members, MonkeyDKS and BinaryGuy10 are filming YoTube series on Monkey Mines. Check them out in the YouTube section of this site!
