Minecraft - OWF server

[Splat]

Another beauty spot claimed and destroyed by new developers!
I blame that obnoxious transport route that appeared. Once the trains come, the bulldozers are only just behind!

This satirical post brought to you from Romania. Mmm-mmm!

Splat stole a laptop from a tourist.

Dripik, to be honest, i thought it was open ground too. When I first came on the server, Hulaabeo showed me a spot to build my blaze and I thought it was ok:/ Thanks for the compliment Havoc:P

If I got to move the Blaze, it won't be easy in a few ways. I haven't planned what to put inside the head yet anyway. I'm removing my proto-type creeper trap near it since i have no use of it. I'll grow some tree's there and maybe some around my blaze.

[dripik]

Don't move it, it's fine where it is. Complaining about new stuff appearing around our buildings is an old tradition on the server. When I built the old apartment buildings, Manco considered it a threat to the awesome view from his "shack" (which was actually quite a house).

[Manco]

Oh shit, I think I left a tap on at the ol’ shack.

That was... how many months ago?

[Wil]

Don't worry, there's a 1×1×1 pothole nearby.

[Destro]

Ok, who decided to go in my cave? im not very happy. it's near the blaze. Also, whoever it is, i want all resources you stole from that cave returned wether it's iron, diamond, gold, wood, tracks, stone, dirt, coal, ladders, mushrooms, and maybe a little more.

Damages done: ladders, abandoned shaft, mushroom farm, and my patience.

[Havoc]

There's more ways to get into a cave than just your entrance, mate. And last I checked we don't claim entire cave systems to ourselves. What happened, you lit up the cave but didn't mine anything yet?

[Destro]

I mined some stuff in there. maybe ill have a better look

[Phylum]

If you've been down there and lit it up but not mined things then it looks like you don't want them. If you haven't lit the cave up then it's free to be explored.

[Destro]

:/ dang.

[Phylum]

That's not to say it's a good thing to do, by the way. I don't endorse going into other people's houses and exploring their cave systems, but cave ownership is nonexistent.

[dripik]

This is what I miss from the old days of the server. No sense of a group effort anymore. Everyone moves away from the rest as quick as possible and has their own little world to play in where others are non-existent, except the odd "look-what-I've-made". But then what's the point in playing on a server?

[RoryF]

So you can talk to people from the forums on that chat whilst playing Minecraft...

I only build some stuff far out so I can get ores and things from that far out bit and then come back to my main house. I only put up houses there to store some things and stay in over night if it got dark after mining.

I always thought it was interesting striking out far into the wilderness and then holing up while everyone else starts expanding outward until they catch up.

[STM]

I have a remedy to your problem. Kindly allow me back onto the server. I'm awesome. I'll make things right!

I beg to differ - Sure there are a few single projects going on, but almost everything I've been doing on the server over the past few months has been working on projects with others... Dunno what happened to that plan to make a huge underground hidden city though. I've just been back there for the first time since being away for 3 weeks... Some progress has been made but it looks as though it's stalled a bit.

Maybe we should agree on a date to try out the PvP map that Havoc installed (he'll have to talk to me about re-setting it, I'm not sure how yet). Perhaps we could also have adventure map events too, now.

[Crashpunk]

What did I miss? Is my Fort still there?

[Havoc]

No, we burned it down. I took down your temple as well, needed the wood.

[Crashpunk]

You can't burn down my fort, It's made out of stone.

Also NOO NOT MY TEMPLE!

[dripik]

...but almost everything I've been doing on the server over the past few months has been working on projects with others...

If this is happening on the server, then I'm missing something. Then again, Steam Sale. That's my excuse.

[DarkHoodness]

'ere, who stole the iron blocks from outside Crashpunk's house? They used to make up his drawbridge. Now they're missing, and they broke the circuitry.

[Wil]

I thought ops now had access to mods that log that kind of information.

[Havoc]

They do. Unfortunately I couldn't get a clear log to show who was there before Dark since he apparently replaced the blocks there with dirt. I checked some stuff inside though and the only person who was there shortly before Dark was Wario himself (And Destro over 300 hours ago). But since Wario was there pretty short before Dark (within the same hour) I think he took them himself.

[RoryF]

You got the LogBlock plugin? That was real good, I used to use it a lot when I was admin of another server. I never figured out how to set it up myself though, a lot of mySQL crap.

[Crashpunk]

I didn't touch anything. Not only did the Iron blocks from the Drawbridge disappear, the Iron Blocks in my fort making up my Vault Doors were missing.

[Havoc]

I tried logblock, but it wouldn't work properly. And it also wants to roll back every single thing a person has done ever when they get banned by default, and that is a pretty retarded functionality if you ask me.

Core Protect does a fairly good job but as goes to show, it does have its limitations. Once a block is replaced you can not get any info on who manipulated that area before. Unfortunately decent logging plugins are hard to find, there's something wrong with each of them. My quest continues I suppose.

[Wil]

Maybe Mojang's willingness to better accommodate the needs of modders and servers will allow a better logging plugin to be developed.

Yeah, that was the only real problem I thought it had. Everything else was fine when I used it. There used to be a great plugin called BigBrother. Unfortunately it was discontinued.

[Havoc]

I actually tried BigBrother as well but that refused to work at all, so yeah.
