The problems we have

I like it’s cracked the problem. Is that the ram that you get from the free plan is so low i guess your trying to not overload your servers but still at least give us 1.500 MB of ram and. Our server locking after 3 days is crazy it’s better if it was 7 to 10 days.

Deactivitates Server if Unused in 24 HRS

I was going to migrate my minecraft server from another host to Minefort, because I heard many good things about it. I was in the middle of doing so, but I stopped because it was frustratingly difficult and unclear how to do so. The next thing I know I get an email only 24 HOURS later saying that my work-in-progress server has been deactivitated and can't be reactivitated until I select a paid server option. I READ THROUGH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND NOWHERE DID IT SAY THAT MY FREE SERVER WAS GOING TO BE DEACTIVITATED IF UNUSED IN 24 HOURS. However, it does say only one login and free server per person, as in using a different email to make another free server is not allowed. Great, thank you /s. I knew it was too good to be true. WHO HAS TIME TO GO ON EVERY 24 HRS?!
Lol, they have "Guidelines for Reviewers" and "How to write a useful review."

Great user interface, mediocre server stability

It was quick and simple to set up an account and make a server, and the website was fairly user friendly and easy to customise the server in whichever way I wanted. unfortunately the server ran very slow and become unusable whenever more than one player was connected, it crashed nearly instantly when any of my friends joined the server. I understand it's likely due to my geolocation being very far from where the servers are based but it's still unfortunate. Overall a very good user experience

Exploit

Hello minefort staff. I would like to inform you that an exploit is used to get the operator status. A player called zeeplokd used this to grief my server, LifestealTalismanParkour. My staff team had to manually reupload the backup. We received no assistance from minefort. Please update your security. We're on the verge of war, given the fact that several hackers are now targeting our server. Please help. Thank you for your time and attention.

Amazing for a free service :)

It runs pretty well aside from the constant chat advertising - some tradeoff is to be expected for a free service. You have to start the server very 2-3days otherwise you get locked out by a paywall. I wish this was more clear when I was looking for hosts but regardless, it's been pretty good as someone who is just hosting a small vanilla server for a couple of friends to play every now and then.

I like the premium servers however, there is a problem that we cant zombiefy villagers resulting for us not to cure them and then also, its hard to add plug ins especially the simple voice chat command. There are also times that the server lags too much

Thanks for a great MC experience, here is some feedback.

I was able to set up a server in no time.
Small plan is fully sufficient for the kids and friends. Plugin system also works well.

It would be nice to see plugin ratings (and sort/filter by these) in the web UI.
Plugin sets for common scenarios would also be nice, so I do not need to research which mods support which other mods for which MC versions.

The server at first did not allow me to mine blocks. Had to make my players Operators or maybe it was a plugin that I had setup initially. I did not see that players need to be enabled to mine blocks in the onboarding steps.
