We just finished the castle walls(3 layers think), towers, bridges. Now we just finished the armory, located at the back of the castle. Next up, Royal Living Quarter.

for fucks sakes, i let people in if they had over 1000 posts. stop flipping out
everyone in this thread is acting like a baby from one decision i made[/QUOTE]
Oh really? Over 1k posts?
[QUOTE=tWoolie;23906514]I'm a newbie and i've been running round servers for the past couple days and helping out with shit. however because i never changed my default skin the ammount of animosity people had towards me was huge. there was almost always suspicion and rejection.
When a griefer started lighting fires, i was watching him do it, and telling everyone exactly who it was, but nobody believed me, they just instantly assumed it was a guy called Flamester
I guess what i'm saying is if you want to treat people with the same blatent bigoted descrimination as the TSA, people are going to treat you like it.[/QUOTE]
anomalies.
Like i said, not every arab guy is going to bomb a plane, not every teenager will hang around on the street.
My point is this, and then i'm going to bed.
[B]Not everyone is a griefer. However, if you are a server owner or hoster, how do you stop griefers crashing the server or stop them griefing? Ban them? Well that means they've already done something on your server to warrant a ban, thus they've griefed. So how do you keep them off the server? Only let in friends, people you know, or respected members of where-ever you are recruiting from. In this case, FP is the place you are advertising an recruiting for people to play. Since FP is a big forum with lots of members, some server owners will want only gold members, or only older members, or only certain post counts. All it is, is a way to shrink the pool of potential griefers, because guess what, no matter how many of you 08, 09ers and 10ers come in and say "i don't grief!" there are more new forum members griefing than there are 05ers and 06ers, sad fact but its true. And thus that is why join date elitism is going on.
It's not fair but there is no other way for people who run a server to discern between Person A and Person B. There really isn't.
The plane analogy is a good one, but also think about car insurance. If your a teenager who has just passed a driving test, living in a busy city, and having bought a powerful car, you're going to pay more for insurance, right? But you don't crash it the entire year... does that mean the insurance company was stupid and shouldn't have charged you more money? No... it's about risk, think of this whole situation in the same way[/B]
Goodnight all. Hope to play with some of you guys tomorrow :D
Someone griefed the fuck out of Candle Cove on Profan's server. Fucking assholes.

Any good server up right now? I need something to do while virus scanning my friend's laptop.

OH hi again
Anyways, pretty sure that PlayerXXX is just a name hider for griefers in general.
At any rate, servers really need to be shut down when there aren't any admins on, or voteban needs to work, or tnt and lava needs to be removed until the final version, because otherwise (as has been stated many times) griefers just ruin everything good on the map and discourage players from joining again.

Whats the IP? If you want it private, PM it to me.
I don't have a server.
71.13.209.66 looks awesome
[QUOTE=Hexxatron;23907385]I don't have a server.[/QUOTE]
Then how am I supposed to join you on your save? x.X
Cmon in guys, fresh server.
86.131.29.158
Could someone PM me the IP of a good, serious private server? A community style build would be great, like we all live in a private walled off area thing. Please, someone. These servers that I've found are so horrible. :ohdear:

Joining now
I was at Profanwolf's server when a similar incident happened, these griefers appear to be using a program or application called Persister which is a .jar file, and also using a number of ways to get into the server, named as player*** and obtain blocks of lava and TNT.
Reportedly, these players have been "banned" or auto kicked when joining the server, they have found a way to bypass that. Vote banning would be just as useless.
We just have to hope Notch works out the issues.
well fuck
venn dammit, unban me
Well that server I advertised is an amazing example of why people dont host on home computers without a good net. IT LAGS.

persister.jar assigns that name if you don't have a lastlogin file in your .minecraft folder iirc.
That hack you mentioned above sounds like it is going to be tough for Notch to get around...
gaaaah I hate people like that. I wish I could just literally punch them in the face and break their jaw.
I'm going to sleep. I am only going to go on private servers from now on...
Massive craters, lava, water everywhere.

no, as he already has name-validation in minecraft classic most of his existing code would probably work in SMP.
[QUOTE=Warrant;23907514]well fuck

I did unban you.
Your IP isn't banned anymore. You're still getting kicked. Weird.
There goes the server, crashed. That lasted longer than I expected.
