I was wondering, are players allowed to exploit the glitch where you destroy (in the town/castle) blocks and before they can reappear, you open furnaces or chests and take stuff out?

If you are doing that you kinda stealing inside the Castle walls.

First of all I wasn't doing it, I had it done on me.
Second of all, it is stealing which is allowed but it is exploiting a glitch, which admins and mod have said is not allowed.

It's not a glitch so much as a shortcoming of the game code.
I would recommend you put your chests on a lower floor in your house, somewhere people dont have to just break one block to get to.
Creeper explosions now hurt players! (still don't destroy blocks)
Rank Count and above can now run their own player shop!
Rank Baron and above can now gain a protected plot of land outside the Castle walls.
Updates sound cool apart from the Creeper one.....
ps 1. any news on the missing chest/furnace items problems? 2. And the plot sale problem?
1. Never were any. Anyone can access anyones chest if its not locked with LWC. As for the vanishing items, I'm willing to bet somebody stole from him. There is no bug in the world such as he describes.
2. None have been reported to me. I see people buying plots of land every day without incident.
Won't be playing if I don't get my stuff back. They basically dug into my random ass hole out in the middle of no where, went down the random branch leading to my chest, and then dug the 2 things you needed to dig to get to the chest.
Its a great server, but it won't be fun if people cheat and items aren't able to be recovered. I spent like 5 days farming diamonds so I could switch over to guard and actually be a good guard (there aren't many), but to have the slate wiped clean by a cheater is very frustrating.
Any way I can go about getting some of the stuff back so I can at least start guarding? I had like 15 diamonds and around 40 Iron. Just sold all my redstone and didnt have much blue stone, but I did have a stack or two of cole and wood aswell. I can show you where they obviously x-rayed if that'll help me get some of my stuff back.

This isn't really preventable on ANY server. Yes, there is a mod to attempt to prevent xray mod but it is more dangerous and buggy then xray itself (it converts all the ore into rock until its discovered.
I am sorry to hear about this but maybe you should have gone further out. Things like this just cant be prevented, no matter how many xrayers we ban (and we ban a LOT)
Right. Its not your fault man. You run a very SOLID server. It just sucks when people cheat and ruin the game.. there is no way to reverse or compensate. Its very frustrating to lose 5 days worth of MCing :sad.gif:

It does seem as though we managed to get BigBrother working, at least so far.
This means we will be able to observe who did what, when and where to blocks.
This will definitely give us a heads up on any griefing.
This would be the kind of stuff I'm talking about, Alpha.. I'm on usually for 4-6 hours at night, sometimes by myself, but I could assist you in the regular operations if you wanted any help at all controlling cheaters or other little tasks.
Would it be possible to make some jobs actually worth doing? For example.. Gardening is THE WAY to make money if you want to do it fast.. its pretty cheesy. A possibility would be making the easier jobs start off paying better, but scale the harder jobs to pay better in the later levels..
An example would be maybe making gardeners not quite as dominant in the later levels, and raising how much guards get? I'd say hunting would be the second most difficult job, with mining in 3rd, and gardening at fourth. Terraforming is definitely the easiest way for a newb to get a couple bucks.. but Gardening is dominant all the way up.
If anyone ever has a problem that needs immediate attention.. like cheaters or other severe bugs, I can be found on AIM 18 hours a day at 'thechrislayne'

Yea sorry. Had to restart for a quick update. Server should be back up now.

You won't be banned unless you are cheating so don't worry... Unless you do cheat... :tongue.gif:
How big is decent? :tongue.gif:
