For the 1.6.X update, there will be a completely new survival world put into place. The reasons being is that the recent inventory glitches have really muddled up the economy and people have 'God' items and way too overpowered stuff illegitimately so the best and easiest thing to do is to start fresh, where all of these bugs are ironed out. And also, 1.6 brings a whole new load of changes, so starting a new world would be great for this update.
The current survival world will still be up and running until the server is updated until 1.6.X. Your items and builds from the current survival world will not be transferred over to the new survival world, and you will have to start afresh.
The new survival world will be out shortly after the opening of the server for the new update but it probably won't be ready for the opening as we would need to make a spawn and make sure everything is working correctly
If you have any questions, ask them here
As we will have to re create factions, Would the owner of a current peaceful faction be allowed to stay peaceful? Or would they have to apply again?:3
Can we also Transfer Some of the Peaceful Faction's Bases to the new world?
Btw, Nice Message Zlexy, COD: MW2 Quotes, I like it ;)

No bases will be transferred over. We want to keep this as vanilla as possible, so it is considered a full restart.

What about the Peaceful Factions?

We are still currently deciding on whether or not to keep the peaceful factions as is, as all factions will be redone (since the Faction plugin still hasn't completely updated to 1.6.X yet). So keep an eye out for a full, secure response to your question ;)
Well, There goes weeks of hard work down the drain...

I like it though, i get to be able to start fresh...be able to rebuild and regather items.
It may be a bit annoying for peaceful guys, but really good for other people. Because; Some 3 or 2 faction like Sith my faction and Jedi Knights, didn't let any other faction get more than 3 members because we kept on killing them as we were in survival for a long time. Now that it's restarting they will have some time to atleast get items to defend themselves.
The new world has way too much jungle trees and swamps which is what people didn't want :l

There are hardly any swamps o.O I almost completely removed them... and I can see there are hardly any on the DynMap. And the areas with jungle trees are smaller, but yes there are still quite a lot. I made the plains very large though
