Welcome to the DuncsWeb Community
===========================

- 24/7 Forums
- 24/7 Chat Room
- 24/7 512 Slot TeamSpeak

Our server is a 24/7 No-Whitelist Dedicated Server, has minimal lag (If a Serv says they have no lag ever, its a lie), saves state every 20 minutes, has backups every 30 minutes and automatic restarts to flush memory every 24 hours.
We have been around since February 24th 2011 and are very clued up on the workings of Minecraft and its players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some features you'll love on our Server:
Towny: Join a town or be a lone ranger in the Wilderness. Wilderness = PvP, Griefing & Mobs
iConomy: type /money for your balance (we use gigs and megs)
MoneyDrop: **** mobs to earn money
McMMO: Get bonus skills as you play

----------------------------
We are strict on the rules and run various protections including Spam, Fly, Xray, Caps, Swearing, Dupes, Town-Griefing, Speedhacking, Client Hacks & Previous Bans. Our staff monitor players when we believe a rule is being broken and mostly operate on a 3 strike (warn, kick, ban) rule depending on the severity of the rulebreaks. Our staff is of a mature age, and will not hesitate to remove someone from the game if they are breaking rules or interrupting gameplay for others.
----------------------------
We offer donation tiers (Donator, Sponsor and Boss) with rewards for each (including fly, changing night and day, and heal).
Our in-game chat has various ranks (Default, Trusted, Mayors, Kings), and gives colours to names. We give trusted status to players that play well and regularly.
Our IRC Bot helps out with common links, and "MrTips" will give handy hints as the game is played.
----------------------------
Our strongest asset is our friendly community. If you're looking for a legit server to play Minecraft, LOOK NO FURTHER!
