Hello everyone. This thread is dedicated to the Hitman Forum Gamers Minecraft Server.
“What is the purpose of a Minecraft server? I thought this was the Hitman Forum?”
The Minecraft server is to give a gaming space for members of HMF to build and play together. Sadly, at the moment, the Hitman franchise doesn’t really offer that sort of gaming experience. Minecraft is a game for all ages that can be enjoyed on most platforms.
“What platforms is this server available on?”
This server is run through Microsoft/Mojangs “Realms” service. The server is available to those who own Minecraft on Switch, Playstation, Xbox, and the Bedrock edition on Windows. The Java version of Minecraft cannot run this server.
“How do I join the server?”
Reply on this thread, or send a private message to @Silvereyes to ask to be invited.
“What are the rules?”
#1: This server will adhere to the rules and general ethos of Hitman Forum. Any member of the server that acts inappropriately may be reported to the moderators of Hitman Forum.
Terms of Service can be found here.
#2: No griefing other players, deliberately annoying or obstructing other players, or being a deliberate nuisance.
#3: No stealing other player’s property.
#4: No vandalising other player’s builds.
“Any guidelines or tips?”

Original Opening Post
Hello everyone,
I am looking at setting up a Minecraft server, one for the members of Hitman Forum. I think it would be nice to have a gaming space that we could use and share and collobarate on.
The server would be a “Realms Plus” server. Essentially a server ran by Microsoft/Mojang. This would run on the “Bedrock” edition of Minecraft, and should be available through crossplay on Playstation, Xbox, Switch, and PC. Sadly this means it won’t be available to PC users who still use the “Java” version of Minecraft, but I think crossplay should mean more people able to participate.
The server would be very basic, a vanilla survival server. The server would not be public, but would require an invite, which I will give to any member of HMF. The server will abide by the rules and general ethos of Hitman Forum, I will naturally expect any person who joins the server to give the same level of respect that they would whilst posting on the forum.
I am going to be upfront: I have not run a game server in my life. I don’t believe it should be too difficult to run, reading the tutorials Microsoft have it seems fairly simple to set up. But I do want this to be a collaborative effort, and looking for feedback on how to run things, especially if you are someone who has recent experience with Minecraft. I will be paying for the server myself.
Anyway, before I do set a server up, can you please post in this thread if you are interested, what platform you play Minecraft on, and if you have any questions or feedback. Thank you.
