    Hi,

    I came forth with a suggestions that some members may NOT like. It is about Bungeecord support.

    Now the important members of team may say, you can NEVER keep your server online 24/7 so just give up. And my question is, ok not 24/7. But at least near to it ? Like if I make my server very popular somehow. They may further ask, you need to actively stay and interact in an Aternos server to keep it active. And I have an answer to that as well. What if I keep staff members to those servers ? I will keep staff to those servers, disguise them as normal players. And like that, it is supposed to work. I know this debate is almost unending. And some just close it somehow. But this isn't really a bad idea. If someone dishonestly tried to keep server 24/7, other members can report them here, in Aternos board. And by adding bungee, Aternos will really BOOST it's way to get EVEN more people. Setting up a bungee server is easy as well. And it lags less too. Which means, players may rely on like 1.5 GB or even 1 GB RAM or EVEN less. And in this way, the system will be help greatly. This is just a suggestion. I actually have a second suggestion. According to my humble research, back in the days, in Aternos, people who had more players, had more RAM. And you probably guessed it. This second suggestion is not too important. But the first one is pretty important. As if the first one gets accepted. Players can properly rely on Aternos FOREVER and may stay in Aternos FOREVER. I hope you understand. And I hope you reply to this thread after reading full of it.

    A Humble User,

    24/7: Your server stays online as long as someone is actively playing on it. We don't want AFK people or people who try to keep it online without playing as it wastes resources. We could use these wasted resources to run the servers for people who really want to play instead of AFKing.


    Bungeecord: Our focus is on people who want to play with their friends and not on people who want to build the next big server network.

    That Bungeecord reduces RAM usage is bullshit.


    Back in the days where RAM usage was bound the player count people also had to fill up every slot and slots had a maximum of 10, otherwise the server got stopped.

    Bungeecord is a proxy software that is used to connect multiple servers into a network. Bungeecord is not a Minecraft server software and has nothing to do with the performance of the individual servers in the network.


    Since you can only have one server on Aternos, Bungeecord would be completely pointless.

    > That Bungeecord reduces RAM usage is bullshit.

    Answer to that is in the main thread.

    > Since you can only have one server on Aternos, Bungeecord would be completely pointless.

    I can get servers created by my staff...

    Sorry but I don't see any explanations there, only that you said:

    "And it lags less too. Which means, players may rely on like 1.5 GB or even 1 GB RAM or EVEN less."

    Which is entirely false, as it's been stated already, bungeecord is a proxy, and has nothing to do with individual servers performance.

    If someone is going to keep their pc 24/7 online, then why don't host the server by yourself? You get FTP, custom plugins/mods, etc.

    Sorry but no, the main problem here isn't that it's difficult to setup, it's just not the focus of Aternos.

    Aternos was made for you to play with your friends or tiny communities, not to make server networks, which is why Bungeecord won't be added. If you want to create a network, Aternos is not the host you're looking for.
