Suggestions, fixes and imporvements for RTY

Alright, if anyone have any requests for radio, say so now. I've already done Gensokyo Radio.

For the Fallout Fans, Galaxy News Radio - "http://168.61.34.237:9786;Galaxy News Radio;green"
Because I'm a 90's Kid, a random 90s station - "http://77.67.46.73:8000/aazo90-128kbps.mp3;AAZO Radio 90s;yellow"
Also, if there's enough Bronies around here to need a brony station, there's Luna Radio. I might as well throw that one out there just to save time - "http://198.27.112.218:8002/stream;Luna Radio;purple"

Anyways, those are my suggestions. Yes, I did go ahead and write up entries for the config for them. According to the tutorial I saw, they should work. If anyone else has a particular niche in mind, you can use this site to search for the station IPs. I'd suggest having Shoutcast open in another tab to test stations with, though, since the popout player seems to have issues.

(Oh, and if built-in stations have to be removed, can we try to keep the British comedy station? I've grown sort of attached.)

I never said that. I just said that if there was an otaku radio station (which I think there is on the internet), then we might add that. But we don't have one configured on the server.
Let me ask you a question, do you know what internet radio is? Because it appears that one of us is getting it wrong here.

@Remi
I'm not too sure about that. It'd be a nice feature but what would happen if no-one requests a track or does anything? Would there be a pre-set playlist just in case?

I would just do what I used to do and stream a playlist. Anything that gets requested would get priority. Anything requests that don't already exist in the playlist gets added to the playlist so it'll play it as part of the natural loop incase no one requests stuff.

@Kass
I do like the idea of those stations. The 90s station would be a nice Easter egg or random addition. As for Luna Radio, while I am not too fussed on it, I'm unsure as to how many people would want to have it around. I am aware that there are possibly bronies here but almost all of them have kept themselves hidden if there are any. The only bronies I have encountered here is an old user/IRL friend of mine, Itzzwan, and two unconfirmed bronies (will not reveal their names).

If people are bronies, shame on them for hiding it. We're a society of people who love little girls firing lasers. Not to mention that a number of us can be considered deviants for our interests and acts. How bad are bronies compared to us? We are roughly on the same level here. We love a game filled with magician girls and youkai. They love a show about ponies. Both of us go to similar extents with our interests. We go to cons, we buy unofficial (and official) merch, we make fan content, we have our in-jokes, and we have our highs and lows. I don't think this is gonna cause a war or anything. I'm not trying to cause controversy here. I love Touhou and most otaku culture. If I didn't, I wouldn't be here. If you (anyone) are a brony, tell us or tell me. Because I'm cool with it and I respect them. Hey, if Weird Al, John De Lancie, Tara Strong, and Andrew W.K. are cool with it; then so should we.

As for changing stations, unless we need to, I don't think the default stations will be removed. And if it happens, shame on Remi and Katrix. I want my Vintage Jazz and British Comedy.

@Remi
Ok, seems cool. It would definitely help if certain stations like GensokyoRadio and such don't play your favourite tracks or any familiar ones (not that it's a bad thing). Of course, we'd need a moderate sized playlist to begin with to prevent extreme levels of repetition.

Alright, so if we're adding anime radio stations, which ones do we want to add?

@Kassuri

Ty, less work for me.

Haha. I only included the Brony station because I found it while poking around Shoutcast, and I know there's lot of them out there...and because if you have multiple options, you should always include one you won't be sad to see cut as a lightning rod. XD

Alright I've added Galaxy News Radio, AAZO Radio 90s, Luna Radio, R/a/dio, Anime Nfo radio, Armitage Dimension. Anything else?

*shrug* I've thrown out quite a few already, but maybe these? The first one is a game music and remix station. The second one is too, but streams RPG battle themes nonstop...as they put it, "your own personal grinding soundtrack".

"http://209.105.232.220:8655;999.9 Damage Radio;red"

With Chisel mod added, do we have to venture out into the FAR FAR lands to find the marble and limestone to make them? Because it may seem selfish to me if I asked to restart the server simply for the chiseling blocks. And if there is an attempt to move would we have to start off very very fresh or have a world portal and move to it like what we did with 1.6 and 1.7 for the main server?

@Jenga
There are two possible ways around the new world gen without a call for a reset (although I think one may be necessary soon). One, we either have to expand further and seek new lands for new stuff. Two, we can make a dimension dedicated to new world gen and mine our stuff there.

@Jenga

I'll see if I can make an recipe to it.
