After much playtesting in another server which took up about 3 or 4 days of my time,
I have come to the conclusion that notch needs to fix some things first before 1.8 comes to drugwars.
Reason : When someone dies, they drop all their "XP" as glowing pulsating homing orbs. Players accumulate alot of XP over time and if some random skelaton kills someone in a mine deep somewhere, all those XP orbs don't dissapear but lag the whole chunk out. You need someone to Kamakazi lag dive into them, collect them, and then take them somewhere else.
Disabling hostile mobs dosnt solve the problem.
Lets say theres a sheep ***ker out there taking all the XP from the sheep that spawn. Well lets say he meets his righteous doom at the hands of a random dude who then goes /home before collecting the XP. The XP sits there and dosnt decay or decays VERY slowly and lags the chunk out. Random noob who walks acrost that chunk and renders it then lags the whole server out while he renders that chunk.
So.
Wait for notch to fix the XP bubbles, or get a mod to disable XP drops from players.
Please update the map to 1.8 as well as the server, at your earliest convenience, as well as offer pumpkin and melon as a sellable item. Thats what we are all waiting for, atleast I am.

tell us a little about yourself: I teach kids English in Japan.
He uses friendly chat as his manipulation method. He will say anything under the sun to get you to like him, but while your gone, tear up your stuff and steal everything.
His claims that he was helping me are completely false.
there was a 10 hour gap from when he greifed my farm to when I logged in. Ten Hours. He could have logged in anytime to "fix" what he did but he didnt. He does the same thing again and again. You don't fix someones stuff by completely taking all of it.
Such a nice guy in person, but when your gone he goes in and destroys stuff.
Juvenile Psychopathic behavior. He cant be more then 15. Look at his run-on sentences that go a paragraph long with nothing but wah wah in it and lies.
The coords I gave him were to his "town". I thought I would be nice and help him locate something he purchased. I NEVER gave him the coords to my base, even though they are near.
No audac, I forgave you once. Never again. Go away now.
He has not only told me that he himself used Xray on this server in the past, but is continually finding everyones farm in a suspicious manner. He is not simply mining for ores as he ignores them as he passes.
However, the evidence I bring to you today is plain flat out greifing.
I had a mushroom machine I built that took 3 days to make. It was almost a whole chunk big. double modified reversed pentapipe. 4 stacks per harvest.
HE greifed the whole thing.
Built a workbench to greif my machine
he then tore up my normal mushroom farm and put torches all over,
And even advised his town residents to make drug farms under their protected plots.
Not to mention his lies... but we cant ban someone for being a cancer can we?
I vote we get rid of this lying cheating and devious player. He is not adding anything to the community and is only making people ragequit.
Please. Ban him for more then 3 hours. Try 3 years.
ok that was mostly satisfying,
played for a few hours got some good sales, met some noobs, fought some dudes, taught an admin, dug out some base,
all in all a good night.
Whos willing to chip-in to buy sushi a prepaid text only mobile phone so we can text him to reset the server? I honestly would be willing to chip in 10 or so, but I would have to mail it to him... If a half dozen mail him a ten-spot of whatever currency you have, then im sure he might be willing to get a phone and show us the number?
I think the map needs to be reset when 1.8 comes out.
Copy over the starting town only and lets start again.
It would be nice to keep the money we have but if there is a money reset as well that would be OK. Im willing to loose my 70k if it means that I can play for all night. could make it back in no time.
Since this server relies on the production and sale of crops and plants, and since cactus is easily the most automated of them all, many people set up a private hole in the ground to make hundreds of cacti an hour. If everyone made an automatic cactus farm that made 50-100 cactus an hour, that would be thousands of cacti in the whole server being generated at the same time.
Minecraft has an entity limit.
I propose to make it mandatory that all sizeable automatic cactus farms now have a spot of lava in the collection point that destroys the items as they are made, and when the farmer comes to the farm, they cover up the lava and "enable" the farm. Upon leaving, they remove the cover and the items fall down into the lava. Without this, then we will get what we have had for so long, insane crashes.
Also, an easier fix, would be if McSushi designated some people to be able to reset the server. When I was admin for NST, there was a web page we could log in and it had an on / off button for the server. That came in handy alot, as there is only 1 admin but many mods.
The last time I was playing, there was an announcement of a server "reset" and when that happened, the server didnt come back online... I wonder why theres so much trouble!
Ok since screenies speak louder then words, heres my case against audac.
The proof he greifed my cac farm. I rebuilt it, but the history is in the blocks.
A random hole in the wall I followed...
It went diagonal down and ignored the redstone and iron and coal, refuting his claim to be mining
Going into a cave I didnt know about.
Not shown. Torch placed near entrance before another torch placed deeper in cave. After entry, cobblestone getaway from cave (because it was really small and boring but he still wanted to see it)
I have not found his entrance yet, but i havnt really looked.
The following people have been accused of Xray activities.
Ryonbom103
audac.
Case against Ryonbom103.
2-3 chunk long straight tunnel right to the top left cactus in one of my farms. Path to base was more or less a straight shot. No exploration or even torches placed.
When I told Hike328 that ryonbom103 Xrays, Hike said he knew, "I kno". So Hike knows ryon Xrays.
Case closed.
Case against audac.
more then a day ago his faction was greifed by a larger faction. This gave him fuel to revenge his pain. He used an Xray client or texture pack in revenge. The farm he raided (ours) was innocent in his attacks. he lashed out upon a 3rd party. this shows weakness in character.
Entrance tunnel I am still looking for, but he made straight tunnels to all the random caves near my base that I did not know about. How would he know about the random caves near my base without some way to find them?
Uhmm yeah i thought id report this... First this faction got mad because i had more people and a town thing in the facton so the claimed land around it then spawn killed me and my faction ...then they started to grief around where there wasnt a spot protected .. and h
hillcrack
they are just spawnkilling griefing and annoying by claiming around the whole faction and griefing my faction cops dont do anything
and now they are building random toweres and ugly structures around my faction town
So now you do it to others? Logged event at 20:30 8 Sep 2011 you took out half my base. Golden rule, man. Golden rule. Next time just steal the drugs and leave the infrastructure up, ok?
I heard something about a map wipe soon? Something like when the new patch comes out or something, Im not sure. Could you fill us in on when that will be, if you know?
