- WELCOME

Did you know September comes from the Roman word 'sept' meaning seven, because in the Roman calendar it was the seventh month back in the day. Hang on, who actually likes History? That's right, no one. Oh and by the way check out what we have for you this month!

11900 Players!

Marvellous! The number of players we invite to this extraordinary server means more fun for everyone. As the community expands, so do our friends and FruitServers has a habit of turning those friends into the close family that we have at the moment. Let's keep the numbers rising, and make all our new players feel warm and welcome!

Donation goals

Statistics

A BIG thank-you to the talented MrsZombiie for her meticulous eye for detail and creative itch. She has an incredible artistic taste and will sacrifice hours and hours of sleep until the build is pretty; however they never manage to be as pretty as her. If you'd like to check out the new area, visit /warp statistics. Make sure to thank her for it and all the toils she has gone through to bring you an extremely sexy looking Survival Spawn.

- Coupons

Coupons are being introduced to FruitServers.

Before checking out there will be an option to let you enter a code providing you with it's benefits. There will be a further in-depth tutorial on the forums later in the week.

Not only are you rewarded immediately with Keys to use on Crates at spawn, but you also can stack up your points to spend on the website Vote Store! And not only that.. The three people who do it the most get Vouchers!! I guess you could say it's a win-win-win.

When people from all over the world, of all ages come together to play Minecraft and actually hear eachother's voice, magic happens. Also new Temp Channels are now available with a step-by-step tutorial on how to make them, so get up to some foolishness in there! If you are having any issues connecting to the Teamspeak or making a Temporary Channel for yourself please let a Staff Member know.

A hugely competitive player, iMeoww shows the community she means business. She's the first to jump in and have fun at anything, regularly on in-game and the forums, the nominations in the new Forum system for Player of The Month proove she is a worthy player. Thank-you!

Mobbmaster is a dedicated and involved Moderator. Righteous till the end, he has shown multiple times that he will not cease until the issue has been resolved in a correct manner. Quick to act and polite like he doesn't know Evil, Mobb is a pleasure to have on the team, keep up the beautiful work!

KingGoldsta --> Goldsta

QueenSnowgies --> Snowgies

Gamerbabe --> MrsZombiie

Demotions

This month we say a very sad goodbye to our beloved Jefie. Although he was a quiet achiever he got an unimaginable amount of work done for the community and his work ethic will always be recognised within the team. Hopefully if his school workload and commitments decline we will see him return. Thank-you once more!

Promotions

On a lighter note, I'd like to congratulate the successful inductions of Snowgies and Eonasio into the Moderating Team! May you treat them with respect as they continue to guide and preach the Gospel According to Fruit. And a terrific first few weeks with the brand new Event Team; Jylon and Zaffy_! Although there have been minor hicups here and there during the Events they have been learned from and only ensure that the future will have minimal mistakes and a more enjoyable time! It's early days still, but I think you will thoroughly love what is planned this coming week.

Applications

As with previous months we are opening 3 Application forms only for the first week of the month. These are: Moderator Application, Event-Manager Application and the Builder Application. These forms can be found on the Staff Page.

Staff Applications open NOW until Saturday the 8th!
