ChampionofAiur here.

I often think about the days of Lodainn and how much they influenced me for several years of my life. Lodainn wouldn't be the last server I would become a community member of, but for a couple pretty rough years of my personal life you guys served as a much needed escape and almost a second family, and it helped me grow into the person who I am today.

Tarn, I think I speak for just about everyone when I say you were and will always be an awesome member of our community, and you were DEFINITELY a massive part of that second family I mentioned. Nothing will ever change that.

Bilko, count me in for anything! Same goes to anyone else - for the last four years I've had unreliable access to internet, but now I finally am back in the "civilized" world of high speed internet and am hungry for some Minecraft multiplayer!

...Looking back - I think most of the draw of the server, was from accidental skinner-box mechanics, making it extremely hard to do things that in regular survival that would be super easy (like, how much was I "charging" for a house? I'm sure it was insane). With a ton of admin abuse thrown on top. I don't think any of us would put up with that kind of thing now we're older, and I wouldn't enjoy acting like that either.
Plus, in terms of actual buildings - I'm pretty sure we could all put together much better looking designs now than we did back then.

Anyway, I don't know if any of you remember that "Minecraft Cities/Conquest" idea I was toying with after deleting the server for a 3rd time. Let's just say, development resumed :)

Hope you're all doing well in life, this server was a major chapter in my life - and it actually led to me getting my current career in software development. I appreciate the time you all put into making it a fun place.

Hey Tarn,

Great to hear from you, no worries at all - I think one of the most important things about a fully online community like that, was being able to be whoever you wanted to.
It sounds like you've found your identity since then, so congrats - that's great!

Was just searching around last night to see if I could pull any remnants of this server together - just got back into Minecraft and you know...it's a temptation.
Unfortunately, I can't find a single backup that I've kept, and the company that we ran the servers with is well out of business by now.
Lodainn is unfortunately - resigned to our memories. But probably for the best; we were all 10 years younger, and I don't actually agree with how we ran the server back then at all.

Hey y'all,

Tarnias here. I've got to be honest with y'all - I'm not the girl you might have thought I was, just a very confused queer kid who didn't understand how to express himself honestly online. I'd appreciate it if you kept that to yourselves, but I understand if you feel the need to speak openly about it.

I'm running a public MC server again, and it would be wild to see you guys in-game again. If you ever feel like joining, you are more than welcome.

Hello everyone, Colonel_Xeon here!

Anyone still playing Minecraft?

Hey guys, it's been a long time yeah? How's everyone doing?

Just joined!

Seireitei is dead, long live Seireitei

thanks for proving my point Loki, one lore shouldn't encompass all and often it doesn't when lore arguments crop up. Nice server, shame about the behaviour of some of the people. I'm sorry for people like Tarn, Toast, Hwaet, etc (sorry not listing everyone, and those are the 3 I remember being nicest) who have to put up with it.

"Lodainn"

Anyone remember the Lodainn Hamachi Password?

Hey guys, just got a Steam

America! ♥♥♥♥ YA

I noticed :P

Interesting! Hey guys, representing the Seireitei :P (I'm sure MoD will be on soon too when he notices)

Did I say scum? I mean truly wonderful player-base :)

Yay! This will never be used, but it means we get group chat away from the general scum

Indeed

Lodainn on steam... its going to be fun how underused this will be :p
