Ok, we need to get this server sorted out ASAP, because there's not much point being an admin if we can't [censored] ban people.

So you want more people to ban?

Seriously though, what's going on? Don't you have the power to IP ban users?

Well, I found a fair amount of griefing in town today, I think I fixed most of it up though.
Also maybe we should move the spawn point back to Aldergate. So any random people can mess around there instead of our city. I'm also willing to use some of my adminium to build a jail around the spawn point. Then when a griefer joins he would be stuck. And an admin could TP members out of there.
Also can you put lava back to its old goodness.

I fought off a vile beast and sent him back to oblivion. (The T word.)

We have a lot of randoms joining and causing problems. Can we give more trustful members mod abilities or something?

Ok, there is random people on our server. Both of them said that they are not forum users.

I might try out the multi-player tonight, if you guys'll have a [very good looking] novice such as myself. Username is Donkey_Cavity.

In theory, I should. The server is messed up though, and until we restart I'm not able to ban/kick anyone. Why is why I need access to the server host as soon as Wamp/bonemonster gets online.

I tried, but setting the spawn point under any sort of block just drops the person on top of it instead.

EDIT: I removed the IP from the OP. I suggest when our month is up we let the server expire then buy a new one so the IP resets. Or maybe even use a server that actually [censored] works properly.

Alright cool. Can't wait to be able to ban/kick the trolls!

Which, hazelnutspread and nick913 can be safely banned. hazelnut pretty much admitted griefing around and messing the spawn point before leaving "in a hurry". nick913 is his friend.

Flying and going through walls is just sorta my thing, guys.

Not hacking, just too poor for an acceptable internet connection. Looks like I'm not going to be able to play online on this server any time soon, unfortunately.

Good luck with the fireworks!

Damn. Can someone who remembers the IP adress PM it for me

edit - got it!

I'll show you a design for a spawn jail when I get in game.

EDIT: That is, if I can get the IP from someone again. Thanks!

Make an Adminium box 3x3x3 inside. Or surround the spawn point with eight Adminium blocks an a single block on the third space above the spawn point

Ehh.. I would be willing to help moderate the server....

considering I sometimes accidentally cause unwanted damage.. *looks to the lighthouse in town, and the lava damage near my fort*

Someone is impersonating the thieves guild.

Saurok someone stole a lot of stuff from the supply room of the castle. [censored]'s sake I'm getting tired of this. There was a 'thieves guild was here' sign too, and since me and saurok are part of the thieves guild, it's obviously someone impersonating the TG.

Seriously, STOP TAKING EVERYTHING. Loads of work to dig that hole and gather supply, and poof they're gone.

» Sat Sep 25, 2010 3:48 am

The problem isn't so much the numbers of admins - there's usually at least one of us online - it's the server messing up and not letting us ban. We need to reset it.

A thief complaining about stuff being stolen from him? oh the irony!

Reset the server and lose everything?

No! :cryvaultboy:

Pickles, we can save it (well Wamp can) and progress won't be lost.

» Sat Sep 25, 2010 3:55 am

WHY SERVER WHY.

But BM, I don't actually steal stuff.

Or at least when I did I only took half the stack for example.

Mmkay.

And don't call me Pickles! I'll have to make up a stupid nickname for you. :shifty:

What's the IP? I haven't memorized it...

Yup scrolling through the little invetory bar is annoying but it works.

just map the LB and RB buttons as the scroll wheel. Or did you do that already?
