How is it a bad thing? It seems they're exploring an earlier part of Motoko's life as she looks a lot younger (then again, cyborg and all). No point in getting angry if you know jack-shit about what they're doing with it.

Unbanned you. It's one of those corner cases, because I'm not entirely opposed to mods that don't give you a distinct advantage. Just don't make it worse.

Not really anime but I took a detour the past few weeks and watched the first seasons of a French animated series called Wakfu. Lots of parallels with anime (fantasy setting / explosive action scenes), but it's ABUNDANTLY animated. I recommend it to you guys.

Wasn't there some sort of Minecraft bug with this? Server's still running on 1.4.6 since there's no new Bukkit for 1.4.7 yet.

I think you need to recalibrate your sarcasm detector.

Seems people are finally using the Ender Pearls to their full extent which, in case of our server, also means they can use it to easily grab the restocking loot from the Pirate Fortress I build by placing marks near the chests. I'll code in Factions support so I can set restrictions for marks placed in different Factions territories. Edit: aaaaand implemented.

Not a holiday, mostly working, I run my universitys ski/snowboard society. Taking 400 people away on holiday is one huge ball ache Now I want to know the casualty count of 400 people spread over a few months of skiing

So that's where you went. That's one big skiing holiday.

PvP tournament isn't as fun as spleef, although nobody's stopping you from building an arena and organizing a tournament.

Mojang hasn't really proven themselves in the long term, although they're on the right road.

I usually judge game devs not just by their games, but also how they handle the community. My top big studios would be Valve, CD Projekt (The Witcher series, GoG), Double Fine (Psychonauts), Bohemia Interactive (ARMA, DayZ), and DICE (Battlefield). On the indie front I guess I like Mojang, Vlambeer (Dutch power!), Facepunch ( ) and Arrowhead (Magicka). I don't feel like elaborating so just go play their games.

New Gintama arc, yay! Tears of laughter at the ending scene.

Your suggested solution will not help with the stated problem. Just stop preying on new players. Organize a pvp tournament for the bigger factions or something.

Updated the EnderPearlRevamp plugin. You should no longer be able to place marks behind walls using lag. Also you can't place marks through doors, even if they're opened. Last but not least I've added a few blocks to the marking blacklist, mainly fences and doors.

Blegh, lag abuse. I'll figure something out. Hard to test that shit though :/

It's not glitching. He marked that block of obsidian where he teleported into your base, so he got in earlier somehow. He didn't mark it again so he couldn't use it again.

Robiana didn't learn from his last post so he's suspended for a few days.

I think I'll try this, since it seems Factions does pass some events around: as a solo player you won't be able to claim more than 1 chunk, enough for a mudhut. For 2 players, it's 4 chunks. From 3 players and up, it's to full extend of your faction power. Ok so I went ahead and implemented this within an hour ^ https://github.com/Clavus/FactionsClaimLimiter It's already running on the server. Factions' minimum member limit has been lifted, you can now claim 1 chunk as solo player, and 4 chunks with 2 players. With more players it acts like normal.

We're a game server not an airport long-term parking lot.

Why not record / make screenshots of the guy and get him banned instead. Then he'll never touch your base again. Also I still have to counteract spamming doors (since you can use the lag to place an Ender Pearl mark behind a door). Just wait till I provide solutions.

I can see why you are desperate. I finished university-level probability & statistics last year, but I can't make sense of this question. Good luck

I'll allow one man factions again soon, but I'll also try to counter-act claim littering in some way. Probably by making the inactivity limit even shorter, so people get kicked out of the Factions data if they've been offline for over a week.

You act as though everyone provided miracle solutions that I'm wilfully ignoring. Fact is that most ideas are either bad or already proven to be ineffective in the past, I've been running this Minecraft server since the first SMP version, and I've already experimented with a lot of ideas. Things will change, just be patient.
