New website & whitelisting bot
We rebuilt Farwater's core systems. New website, new applications, and a whitelist bot that does the boring part for you, so the gap between "I want to play" and "I'm on the server" is now about as short as it gets.
Per-server applications, fully automated
We've reworked how applications work by splitting them per server, so you only answer what each server actually needs and you can apply to more than one.
The flow is three steps:
- Sign in with Discord. One click, no new account to create. We use your Discord identity to tie your Discord and Minecraft together.
- Link your Minecraft account. Type your username and we'll look it up and show your skin so you can confirm it's you. You only do this once — it's saved to your profile for any future applications.
- Pick a server and apply. Choose where you want to play, fill in a couple of details, and submit.
Prefer Discord? You can do the whole thing without leaving it, just run
/apply (or hit the Apply button in our applications channel) and the
bot walks you through the same steps right there.
The bot takes it from here
Once you submit, your application lands in front of our staff. They get it in Discord, with approve and reject buttons right on the post, so reviews are quick.
The moment a staff member approves you, the whitelist bot picks it up automatically. For servers we run directly, it sends the whitelist command to the server for you on the spot. It works across every version, modpack and game we run, no manual whitelisting, no "can someone add me?".
You'll get a heads-up when you're approved. And if you ever want to check where an application stands, head to My applications, where every request and its status lives.
See you on the server. ⚙️
