Effects on the server

10 August

Around 13:00 UTC, LHC server filled up with 100 active players, preventing new ones from joining, an instance unheard of before that. As a response, staff introduced the Queue, which prompted mixed reactions from the playerbase. A number of older players demanded extermination of new grames, while many said grames, namely NEW2MINCRFTSYBAU began calling for "uprising" both in game and on Discord. Around 14:20 UTC, staff had to temporarily close the server due to unbearable lag. At this point, the server playercap went down to 80, as the server was too laggy to house 100 players consistently.

From 15:30 UTC onwards, a number of players reported being stuck in the queue despite the LHC server itself having enough space for them.

Remainder of August

On 11 August, staff started increasing the player cap of the server, moving from 80 to 85, then to 90. The queue issues were fixed on 12 August.

On 13 August, the server reached 40000 joins, which meant that a thousand players joined in 3 days since 10 August. The staff restarted the server at 2:00 UTC the following day to increase the RAM needed to increase the playercap further, which went from 90 back to 100.

On 15 August, the playercap went from 100 to 120 players. On 16 August, the playercap went from 120 to 150 players.

Bedrock support was re-introduced to the server on 17 August, to allow entry for even more players, who couldn't join previously.

By 19 August, another two thousand players joined the server, making the most active period that LHC has ever seen. The server housed many new builds, interactions, and groups as new players flooded the server. Many notable players came from the surge of new players, both friendly and aggressive, allowing for many to create new teams or join pre-existing ones.
