I cant speak to deaths portion of your question line, however i feel i can confidently say that standard community pure wont be going anywhere. It's been the heart and soul of EZ since its inception, and certainly for the entirety of my 6 years here as a player/admin. What pure+ affords us is the opportunity for pure players to enjoy qol perks, their VIP perks, and website purchases if they choose, without having to deal with obtrusive UI's, net worth, teleports, and other commands, found on the more heavily modded servers, keeping the overall gameplay largely "pure". Pure+ also allows our admin teams to run server events for our pure members, complete with prizes they're actually able to make use of without needing to switch to a fully modded server for a month to redeem/get use of. At any rate, pure+ was NOT created as a replacement, and standard pure will remain an anchor for the community

Looking at the last wipes, that wasn't the case, at least for Pure EU. Just because something "used to" be this or that doesn't mean it will going forward - Facebook used to be the biggest social media platform, Snapchat used to be big too. Changes not welcomed by a big margin of users decreased popularity and rightfully so. And a lot of support FOR decay doesn't change the fact that a large portion of players was against it too (around 80 votes iirc) @Death At first it sounded like your vision for Pure was always to "purify" it at some point, that decay therefore was something long coming, not a rushed desicion. Then when the polls were opened it was never stated by you or anyone else HOW decay would be implemented, would it be modified ? 50% ? normal decay? A lot of people that spoke out FOR decay specifically said that while they wouldn't mind decay, they wouldn't IF the decay rate would be decreased. Now after we know that there's a split to Pure+ and Pure it seems like your vision wasn't to make the server go back to its vanilla roots at all - as Pure+ has features like portable recyclers, airdrops, removal tools and so on. How is that in line with your wish for how Pure would be developing since 2017 that you explained when you opened the voting on decay? It seems like monetization was the reason in the end, as we can see with the Pure+ Servers store perks and store items. Which in itself is more than reasonable since the servers don't run on good vibes and love - but the way it's been communicated is different and leaves a bitter taste. Now - in my opinion at least - a portion of the playerbase (wether it'll be half or more) will shift to Pure+, mostly those who don't mind spending money, or have spent money on RustEZ before (members and VIPs) on amenities or QoL stuff or start of wipe perks like airdrops, leaving more or most of casual players (which still make out a huge part of the community) on Pure, partly for the decay and partly for its vanilla origins since you can't "buy" your way to accelerate your start of wipe (wether it be at the actual force wipe or whenever these players decide to join). Give that some time, a couple months or so, and when the Pure server will lose it's popularity people will look over to Pure+ solely for the bigger playerbase by then - or maybe because some people and groups who used to play together, friends who've been made along the way and so on, will have been split up since some prefer Pure+ and some the normal Pure playstyle - and at that point I don't think it would be worth it to keep running the normal Pure servers for you (which I and many others wouldn't want to happen ofc). And @SpeedJourney I think your point about the servers listing makes sense, community servers gain more attention compared to modded ones when it comes to PvE. Originally after Facepunch made changes last year and most of the Pure item stores were unobtainable on the Pure servers due to that, Death said that they removed those very items not to lose their possibility to list Pure under the community tag, now that doesn't matter anymore I guess. That's just my 2 cents, but this all seems very rushed and the reasoning doesn't seem to be anymore connected to server performance or anything tied to decay, especially since your own staff members are now hinting on normal Pure getting decay too at some point. Disclaimer: my intent is not to criticize the desicions for no reason, I try to put myself in the shoes of you, Death, as well as the players and I wouldn't take time to give feedback if this server wouldn't mean this much to me.

This exact rendition of pure used to host 300+ players with 100 more in queue (on us). Additionally it allows the admin team to run events for our pure players without skirting the community restrictions, as well as allowing plauers to make website purchases if they choose and support the server. Decay on standard pure will have its day, and i've been an advocate for that for a long time, and theres always a lot of support for it, pure+ wont kill that unless the players let it

For me this server don't have sence ! No one will play Pure server under modded tag , all vanilla enjoyers search servers only at community tag and with this server the hole idea of full pure server with decay is pretty much dead !

also forgot to add, i will not repeat my previous actions as i did enjoy playing the server and would like to return, i apologize for the name change on the bag. it was not worth it.

Thank you for appealing. With the current cancel culture in the world, racism in all aspects of society is being closely scrutinized. While we do understand that it still heavily permeates music, comedy, movies, and other media, it is something we do not feel is appropriate to have in our servers. Words such as what were used on your account, are not welcome in any context. This is plainly stated on the server's loading screen before you enter. Additionally, this is also stated on Facepunch's Terms of Service. https://support.facepunchstudios.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007485418-Banned-for-Racism-Homophobia Here are resources that you can explore to learn more: guidetoallyship.com https://guidetoallyship.com/ Anti-Racism Glossary https://guides.library.georgetown.edu/antiracism/glossary Anti-Racism Resources https://medschool.duke.edu/about-us/equity-diversity-inclusion/resources/anti-racism-resources The ban will not be lifted.

Hello, I'm hoping its not way too late to appeal, this happened a couple of years ago, i changed my mates sleeping bag name to a dumb name which was a joke between me and him, and got instantly banned, didn't end up appealing then since i stopped playing rust shortly after, i believe it happened around like 2023 maybe. but i don't exactly remember when would like to play again, cheers.

Suggestions for our Pure+ PvE server. All feedback is welcome and appreciated!

I was trying to pick up my sleeping bag and was my first day playing rust got frustrated and named my sleeping bag something bad and got banned i would never use that world to call anybody that directly. I apologize and hope to get another chance so i can play on rustez servers Im sorry for my actions and will not make the same mistake again

I feel I'm not the only one that would like a station for shanties, I found a decent one we could use https://live365.com/station/SpyderMonkey-Shanty-Radio-a24496

I vote yes but I would like to see a 25% decay rate. Low enough to build some stuff and not concentrate on getting resources for upkeep but enough for the large number of random and abandoned "bases" to go away. The incomplete and empty structures can be found everywhere. They take up map space and server resources. It's a bit rude on the player's part. Other than that, it's a great server! The admins are on top of it (Sammy) and everyone if friendly and helps each other out. Thanks for hosting it.

Offender: makaronn Battlemetrics | Steam Server: EU Pure Time: 22/02/26 19:47:38 Expires: Permanent until appealed. Reason: stealing and griefing More Info: The player stole stuff from a vending machine that belongs to the victim. When confronted, the rules were explained yet he kept griefing and asking question that clearly shows he is trolling. Then given another chance, the player ran again to the vending machine and stole more stuff and tried to run away. Obviously this player is not on the server to respect the rules. The ban was issued upon that.

Hello @Jewbaka and thank you for appealing. With the current cancel culture in the world, racism in all aspects of society is being closely scrutinized.

Just one. The ban will be lifted once 72 hours have passed, but it will remain on your record. There will be no additional chances as this post should encourage you to change how you speak in our servers and to abide by the rules. Take a few minutes before rejoining, and refresh yourself on the rules to avoid any chance of breaking them. If you are unclear on any of them, or aren't sure what is permitted, reach out to the staff and we'll be happy to clarify them for you. No raiding, griefing or looting of any kind. No mic or chat spam, player disrespect, politics, racism or harassment. No camping loot rooms, monuments or any highly concentrated areas. You may build in caves but you must ensure safe passage for other players. No blocking water ways, building around monuments or large areas of unused land. (Please read the splash page as well, as each server type has slight variations regarding specific features of those servers.) Welcome back. (Please bear in mind, this is a one-time ban reversal. No further rule infractions of this nature can happen. Thank you!) -A3

Decay will most likely end my playing. I have enough stress in RL why add to it when I game?

I found the Serum w/o the note. i put the serum back in the box ; it's back in play (NotUrTypical)

The steam account linked to this account isn't banned on our servers?

There is no limit on the amount of Wind Turbines a base can have even on Pure if the electrical system on a base is causing issues for other players they the player who's base it is will be asked to downsize. If you find a base that is causing FPS drop do reach out in game on here in the help section or in the discord help channel to let your server admins know so they can have a look into it for you. I will also add the the windmills aren't the issue it is all the IO entities that are connected to the power system.

The Riddle of the Twin Serums Two silent prizes wait on stone, Not buried deep, not overthrown. Per box, one gift of power lies, For watchful hands and patient eyes. They rest where builders stake their claim, Placed by rules within the game. Upon the rocks they sit in sight, But not where sands burn gold and bright. The frozen lands? Now strike them through — No drifting snow will shelter you. And striped or shadowed hunters near? These timid boxes will not appear. They shun the tiger’s watchful stare, No panther’s prowl will find them there. Yet listen close — a final hint: Where waves collide and waters hint With crashing song on rugged stone, There the twin rewards have grown. One hides more than strength inside, A written fortune tucked to hide. Return that note back unto me, And scrap in millions yours shall be. So seek the rocks where oceans roar, And claim the prize — and maybe more.
