Good news, I logged in and it finally worked this time. I guess that whatever was causing the lag either despawned or just stopped. Either way, it seems I'm safe for now.

Not to mention you should probably have a good computer too. The problem is how am I going to get out of there. The only ways I could think of is if they could change where I'll appear when I log in, or if someone with that extremely good internet could get in there and try to reduce the lag. If it's not a result of something like spawners or something like redstone, then the only chances of lowering the lag are doing things like lighting up the above and below ground, and killing everything that doesn't despawn in the entire chunk. Even at lowest render distance, I can't even get on.

I'm having this problem as well, I just finished a post on it when I solved this. Guess that should be removed then if it's not solely my problem. Come back finally since 1.5 to this server and I can't even play on it now that my account is no longer cracked.

So after a long time I decided to start playing on the server again. However, after flying around for a bit, I encountered a problem. I don't believe it's my connection, and for my settings I should be able to run Minecraft without lag let alone crashing. However, no matter what I do, I can't seem to get online without crashing almost immediately. One time I had time to log on, but it didn't matter because I still crashed immediately. I'm at x: -326 z:-377 y:82. And I log in and immediately it freezes and eventually either dc's me or crashes. I used to play on this server a lot so I don't think it's my connection. And I used this same computer to do it as well. Has something big changed the lag issues on this server since when I was able to play on it (back in 1.5 before the launcher changes). Is there any way to move where I will spawn if that's the problem? It might just be that there's too much going on in that area. Is there an insanely lag inducing redstone contraption nearby? Or a ton of mob spawners or something? Either way, something is stopping me from getting on. Can I have any help with that? Is a picture needed for this because I might be able to get one. Just someone help or I can't play on this server again.

That sounds like it's going to be a big transfer XD. Transferring an entire village and the entire area beneath it to another location. I had spawner traps and stuff so yes I'd need the whole thing, every bit of it. Oh well. I guess I'll get on that then when I see someone online. ty for the info.

My user name is risca
I played on the server for a few months under the name of Sarrathos, and did reach citizen status. However, after the release of 1.6, I was unable to return to the server. However, I have obtained a paid account and returned. These are my builds from before 1.6 when I had first applied for the rank of citizen. I am unable to acquire these photos however, due to not being able to get to my base.
I'm applying for Citizenship because I love this server and would like to access more of its features. I would also appreciate to obtain what it is that I've lost since the 1.6 update.

[/spoiler]
The following is my original application for citizen, back when I was under the name of Sarrathos.
I know that the buildings in the village are, for the most part, not my own creations. However, I did build the blacksmith based on blueprints from the internet. I live at the bottom of the well in the village. The villagers were not there when I arrived, and so i consider them my own work. They were created using zombie villagers. At the bottom of the well I have three rooms for spawners, but only two are operating. I have a room for farming zombies, as well as one for farming creepers. In  another part of the cave is a large room, complete with 63 different brewing stands, one for every potion in the game. Up the latter from there is where i have my enchantment table, my pig spawner, another brewing stand, my sugar cane farm, my mushroom farm, and my nether wart farm. I also have some things stored inside of the village church, as that used to be the main part of my home. Sorry if this isn't presented correctly, and thank you for taking the time to read it.

Rap, i think he means to build a base in the nether and then put a skeleton spawner there, because then they will spawn as wither skeletons (most of the time anyway. I think there's a 15% chance of them spawning as skeleton). Anyway, thank you guys for clearing all of this up. I guess I'll just settle for a nether base for now then.

The how about this. would it be possible to modify the spawner for a certain circumstance? For instance, does this server have a skeleton spawner that would spawn wither skeletons in the nether? if it does, then an area in the overworld can be turned into the nether biome, meaning that the skeletons would spawn as wither skeletons with a 15% chance of spawning as normal skeletons.

i already said that there is a wither spawner, meaning there is no real purpose to use the wither skeleton spawner for the heads when you can just use the wither spawner to begin with except that you might want to do it in a lot of different locations. Either way, wither skulls can be bought anyway, so it's not like it's even hard to get them. I want a wither skeleton spawner for a couple of reasons, the heads would only be a little bonus. I want them for the coal, for their bones, and also there is a 15% chance that when a wither skeleton is supposed to spawn, a normal skeleton will spawn instead. This means i'd even get several leftover arrows from this. It means that i can generally expect to get 4 types of items as opposed to two types. rather than just getting bones and arrows, i'll generally get those as well as coal and skulls.

I'm not certain as to whether or not this topic has been discussed before, but why are wither skeleton spawners not available? I originally encountered this problem when trying to get spawners from Diion_Beyer, who said that it was about the only mob he was unable to get a spawner for. Barompsycho was also unable to spawn them. I originally thought that it was to stop people from having a large supply of wither skeletons, as that would also provide a large amount of withers. However, than i discovered that there was a spawner for the wither himself. So, i'm here asking now, what is the reason for not having wither skeleton spawners? Is it not possible to make a spawner for them? Is it just something that was overlooked? If it is the second, then can the addition of wither skeleton spawners plz be considered? Thank you for taking the time to read.

For people mentioning mods, you don't have to worry about that. As of update 1.6 mods won't be necessary for UHC. New gamerules are being implemented, meaning all that's needed is command blocks. Also, the recipe for golden apples will be changing in 1.6 as well, 8 gold ingots instead of 8 gold nuggets.

A problem I have recently encountered with spawners on the server is that even if you have the correct spawner, it cannot always spawn the mob if you are not in the correct location. An example of this is the Mushroom Cow. If I were to buy a Mushroom Cow spawner and place it in a planes biome, no Mushroom Cows would spawn. Even if I replace the grass in the planes with mycelium, mushroom cows still wouldn't spawn, so please don't suggest it. This is because Mushroom cows will only spawn in an area that the game registers as a mushroom biome. A similar problem can be considered with witches. Witches will only spawn in the are that the game registers as a witch hut, meaning that even if I have a spawner, I can't spawn them without a witch hut. Thus, the question I'm asking about today.

Is it, or is it not possible, or is it against the rules, for someone with power on this server (moderator, admin, server owner, etc.) to change an area to fit the spawning needs? That is, can I get an authority on the server to make witches able to spawn in an area of my choosing? If so, what is the cost of getting them to do this, and how large of an area can they cover? If there is not already a rule on this, I don't mind posting it in the suggestion section if it is preferable that it be there rather than here.

I see... maybe some day in the distant future than, if more people like the idea. Thank you for the feedback.

For those of you who don't know, UHC stands for Ultra Hardcore. Many of the same rules apply as in Hardcore mode, but two extra features are added as well. The first feature is that health does not regenerate naturally as it does in normal Minecraft. That is to say, health can be regenerated, but having full hunger will not regenerate it. That means that health can only be regenerated through brewing and golden apples. The second feature is that golden apples have been nerfed, healing two hearts of health, but costing 8 golden ingots rather than 8 gold nuggets.

Now that the explanation is over, I would like to discuss the point of this suggestion. For citizens and above only, just like ordinary survival, could perhaps another survival mode be made. For instance, type /Warp UHC and you will be sent to the UHC spawn. You can still come back from the dead, unlike normal hardcore mode, there is no flying, no natural health regeneration, locked on the hardest difficulty, and there is no cheats (obviously). Also, there are no factions in this mode, meaning any teams you make are based entirely on the honor system (meaning they can betray you at any time and you can't really complain or do anything about it). If you're still reading, thank you for taking the time to review my idea, and if you have any questions, ideas, complains, or support I'd love to hear it.

Yellow, I honestly don't think that really concerns you. Why have you been going around posting on everyone else's applications? And for that matter, why do you talk as if you're an expert or authority on what a application is on this forum?
