I know you're incredibly fond of your ion cannon, kiwi, though TNT could be put to very, very good use by those of us here who try to keep the server safe from griefers. My suggestion is: much like you/tar did with creepers, nerf TNT's block damage, but still allow it to harm players and mobs. Then allow members and all of the superior ranks to hold TNT in their inventory and place it.
In this fashion we could booby-trap our homes and/or tunnels (with signs outside telling people NOT to enter, of course) with TNT traps designed to kill off intrusive, light-fingered players or even hostile mobs without having to worry about everything going boom.
...and if you MUST use your ion cannon at any given point in time in the future, you can turn the nerf off temporarily. :tongue.gif:

I will talk this over with nick and Jed and we may consider this.
Also, I know I brought this up the other day, but I'll post the idea here, too: giving mods the ability to turn invisible would definitely help us stalk people who might be griefers. Not all of them are idiots that never turn around (like that other guy).
cant join the server keep timing out its been like that for like 12 hours now! also i agree with the stalking idea it would work well. as the times i have seen griefing is when they dont see me.
As nick said we will be moving server tomorrow so watch this thread and the current server for the IP change, our server is still up and will continue to be up so you can still play, don't worry the map and everything will be moved to the new server so you shouldn't lose anything at all when we move.

Host swap ASAP rather than Wednesday would be absolutely grand...
It has to be wednesday as that is when nick will have the server ready tbqh.

Alrighty. As twisternick said, it crashed again today.
Wow, we are not doing good are we?
Hopefully today we can move to the new hosting. Will need to wait for nick to get online.
