Use MultiMC or Prism Launcher to connect - ensure you’re using Beta 1.7.3, not the release version. (Toggle the “betas” filter and select “b1.7.3” when creating your instance)
Once you are whitelisted, the server is accessible at oldschoolmc.live:25566
Whitelist application is here (After submitting, you should be whitelisted within 12-24 hours, if not sooner)
Rules are on the website
This is what I see when I direct connect
Do you live in an area where your ISP would block VPNs or Tor exit nodes?
I suppose I hadn’t considered that. I’m not sure as it has never been an issue. Let me try using a VPN myself.
I’m asking because the IP this Minecraft server uses used to belong to a Tor exit (operated by me a while back). It retains permanent bans in a few countries after that.
Also, please try pinging oldschoolmc.live and visiting it in your browser (should display a landing page)
I’m able to reach the landing page. I have read the rules over there and I also copy pasted the address from that site just to make sure everything was correct.
I wouldn’t be surprised if my ISP was pulling some strings though.
I live in Florida and I have Spectrum as my internet provider.
Shouldn’t have any issues in Florida… Restarted the server, try joining again. You’re using the vanilla client, right?
Also confirm your Minecraft username pls, just in case you made any typos in the whitelist app
The server is receiving your connection attempts but rejecting them for some reason… Doesn’t even get into login phase, no idea what’s going on here yet…
The ip address yields similar results.
I’m loading up multimc now
I guess it just wasn’t meant to be. I will try again another time. Otherwise, post some updates on the server so I can get a gander at things going on. It would also be nice as a community project.
