Finally, it begins! With Tekkit 3, we'll essentially get out of the stone age of Minecraft and into a more industrial era. I may do things like set up special projects and such as well. There's also an economy and other stuff. This should be fun!
tl;dr version: Server is at 76.175.53.255. You must install Tekkit 3 to play (details below). The rules sum up to "don't be a jerk" but they're worth reading. There's some server plugins that are optional (including economy, shops, and property stuff) and discussed in a link.
Server info:
IP: 76.175.53.255
Max players: 6
Map: 76.175.53.255:8123
Server plugins (you don't install these, but you can use them): Essentials, HyperConomy, SignShop, Residence

How to install/use Tekkit
1. Go to http://www.technicpack.net/launcher/ and select a download for your operating system
2. Download it, open it, and select "Tekkit" from the drop down box on the top left.
3. Click Options on the bottom right corner. Select "manual build selection" and then select "3.0.3| 1.2.5 | Latest" from the list. Click OK.
4. Enter your Minecraft login information, then login. Wait for it to download and open, then log into the server as usual
Server rules:
General rules:
1. No griefing, no stealing, no trolling, no flaming. Let's keep it fun.
2. Not a rule, but I'd recommend using Residence to protect your property. /res handles most stuff with Residence.
3. Feel free to invite your non-Board 8 friends, as long as they won't break the rules!
Mod-specific rules:
1. BUILDCRAFT: Keep quarries away from places where they could be disruptive. Examples: near people's houses, spawn, mines, etc. Put a layer of something (dirt, sandstone, etc.) and a sign to make it less dangerous afterwards.
2. INDUSTRIALCRAFT: Keep nuclear reactors in safe areas. Use reinforced stone, and keep it monitored or shut off with redstone.
3. Don't steal power, electricity, Blutricity, etc.
4. In general, don't abuse mods to make them destructive or annoying.
About the economy/store/property plugins
They are completely optional, and just for fun. However, details are too long for this post and may change. Details about them are here if you're interested: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19449924/plugins.txt
Have fun!
