lol. No its fine!

Right now, a whitelist is out of the question. We had thefts going on before the last couple weeks, so its someone with builders permissions for sure. Second, a whitelist wouldnt even stop future thefts, there will always be someone who is a douchebag, and sitting there weeding everyone out is just rediculous, something we should never have to do!
 
I just want to let everyone know, I have had a talk with Daniel a couple times about his constant asking of other players for stuff. A freebie every now and then is ok. I have also told him about minecraftwiki.net for all his crafting of items, recipes etc. so he doesn't have to ask how do you make this and that. I know it can get annoying, and some are not sure how to handle an 11 year old, but I think the first step is just telling him to get it himself. I rarely give him anything because I want him to learn the core concept of them game, he gets mad but he also gets over it. Also I will not get mad at anyone for being blunt with him... It's time he finds and learns how to make stuff on his own.
 
Yeah... I gave Danielson a stack of Redstone a few nights ago and he promptly lost it. He's been badgering me ever since for more. So now if he wants anything he's gonna have to find it himself or trade me something for it. No more freebies. ;)

Tell me about it... As one of the "new guys" I can feel a few eyes coming my way. Every online community I've been in has had at least one witch-hunt. :p

I too wasn't happy with the griefer that came on recently and I'm even more upset over the stealing. I can assure everyone that everything I have was acquired legitimately and I won't raise any concerns if an admin were to audit my storage chests. Personally I've only found one dungeon thus far and only have one zombie spawner and almost a stack of mossy cobble to my name.

Do the lockette logs show anyone putting 6 spawners or moss stone into a locked chest recently?
 
So have we come up with a solution to the issue Doesn't seem we're any closer to one, and I'd rather not play with someone who'd steals like that to be honest..
 
I think the only way we're going to solve this is to catch them in the act. I know when Zexx was an admin he'd be popping all around checking up on people to see what they were doing and if they needed help. Maybe give mods the ability to teleport to other players so people like Zexx can continue doing so without having full access to the server.
 
We're working on putting some measures in place to make things a little easier. As has already been stated though, right now all we can do is wait and hope they stop, or we catch them red handed.
 
I think that one might conflict with other plugins. I'll look around and see if I can't find anything that will work. One that also won't generate a huge amount of files and/or use up a ton of resources...

Dunno if it'd be good for us or not. Looks highly configurable to only log certain things.

I was thinking of something similar in-fact. You'll note his thread says that he won't be adding MySQL support; I think there are similar plugins that use a MySQL database to store the log info.

I'm not as worried about being able to roll-back changes as I am about finding out who's doing this stuff in the first place. IMO if something like this *is* implemented on the server, it should be done quietly without telling us that it's been put in place...
 
In the end, as a "temporary" solution, please use signs on your chests for the time-being.

Remember, place a sign right next to the chest.

Line 1 > [private]
Line 2 > your name, EXACTLY, this is case sensitive
Line 3 > if you want someone else to have access, there name here, if not, leave blank
Line 4 > same as above, if not, leave blank

This is a temporary solution!

You don't need to fill in your name on Line 2... Leave it blank and it'll fill it in for you. ;)

It's a good thing too... My name doesn't fit on one line. :D
 
That all only helps witch chests, it doesn't help in the case of the spawners and rock that were placed.
 
I have a public chest with apples in it. I think I need to refill it.

I did run into an issue where I was trying to get doors to close automatically using signs, but I think I locked everyone out of my home. I will be attempting to fix that tonight.

To make doors automatically close put a sign on the block directly above or below the door with this

line 1 [private]
line 2 <your name>
line 3 <anyone else with access>
line 4 [timer:#] where # is the number of seconds for the door to be open (roughly).

For line 3, you could also put [everyone] and that would (you guessed it) allow everyone to open the door.
 
No prob dan man. At least you didn;t burn down your own house. I might have done that a while back. :eek:
 
On a related note, I will be PURPOSEFULLY burning down my place soon. I will be FRAPSing it, but if anyone is interested it will likely be this weekend.

Hey guys, im kinda new to minecraft. Farted arond in single player on my "free version" :p but its so lonely and the developer certainly deserves my money (I believe in paying for games that deserve to be paid for lol) so i just purchased it. Could I get builder rights? love to be able to play with other people and admire what you've all done as well.

name is ragenrok
 
So... question: What's everyone's thoughts on sand generators? I've decided to try building one and it works great, possibly too great. The use of this does fall into the grey area of it being cheating and exploiting a game mechanic. I could go out and strip mine a whole field of sand for the same thing and I have no problem in doing that. But on the other hand I also can see it as preserving our landscape without the need for a wasteland. If you haven't been there go to the sandpit and you'll see what I mean.

If people are against it I'll destroy the machine and anything that was produced by it. I wanted to hear everyone's thoughts before proceeding any further.

FYI, all. Tonight at around 10pm eastern, I will be bruning down by treehouse. Time to make room for something new. My experiments were worth it, but have gotten out of hand.
It is north of the [H] arena. By then I will have constructed a viewing platform, as well as a path iw ill be taking while frapsing it. Come one, Come all!
