    This update is a complete rewrite of the server from scratch, every single config file, and plugin was rebuilt by hand so that I could ensure a more stable server. There were a few changes in this build, including a very important new addition for VIP players that should enhance their play.

    Additions:
    - Vip and VipGold players can now place a "protection" stone in their buildings that will keep their building from being griefed (including tnt grief) In order to use it, you place a Lapis Lazuli block anywhere in your builds. If you would like to place a normal lapiz block, simply crouch while placing it.
    --Use "/ps visualize" to see a visual representation or your protected area, this is client sided and will disappear after a short time.
    --Use "/ps allow playername" to allow specific players to build within your protection areas.
    - New game in the games world! Look for a "dashing" character.

    Changes:
    -Removal of over 15 plugins that were bloating and unneeded.
    -Nether and The End temporarily removed until a better management solution for them is found.
    -Users are now seperated by group in /who (though no longer colored)
    -VipGold is gold again.
    -Chat channels now work correctly.

    Known Bugs
    -It's highly unlikely that the teleport issues have been fixed. You may still occasionally teleport into walls or the ground when using your homes, and private warps.
    -A few of you might have lost your inventories during this transfer, I promise you this will be the last time this happens.

    Way to go Doctor. Keep up the good work. The server will be great. Removing plugins that the authors do not keep up with execpt when people try to keep it up and they are not as good.

    Thank you so much for doing this Doc, I really appreciate all the hard work you are putting in to help make the server better :D

    Also, when the Nether/End return, will we get the End in Clans2?

    you're great Dr.! i like the VIP gold being back to gold:D
  6. FrothingLuck Does anyone even remember this guy?

    Vip Gold was changed to VIP+. Thanks for the rest of the additions

    Because you obviously know more about the server setup than I do right?

    I didn't state I did. I'm sorry if I came across that way. That surely wasn't my intention. In fact, I love the idea of cutting down on the amount of plugins we have as well as your consistent ability to keep us updated on everything going on with the server. Since you've taken over as admin, I've had nothing but a delightful time playing on the server. I appreciate the work and more importantly your time you put into the server. my post was just a little too straight forward it seems.

    What area limits does the lapis block's protection have?
  10. DrMadFellow Secondary Plugin Manager, Rpg Server Admin

    its 20x15, and you can see the border with the /ps visualize command

    A new race of VIP troll has come ;) The "lapis-ninja-this-is-my-home-now", I'm sure one of the VIPs will do it once ^^
  12. DrMadFellow Secondary Plugin Manager, Rpg Server Admin

    And they will lose their privilege. Easy as that.

    I wanted to do this to Nogo1109's mansion. He has a lot of lapis I place one, they all become mine >:D

    But Im not that mean.

    I just found bug.

    Wombatus was in vanish I knew this because he was talking to me and when I pressed tab, his name didn't show up but in the /who he appeared in advancemoderator.

    Wombatus can also vouch this because he was in vanish :p

    That had happened before, I think its so they can try to be as hidden as possible when stalking people. :p

    Not a huge deal. The big thing with vanish is being able to check up on people without them knowing you are watching them. It helps a lot with catching hackers/griefers.

    In fact when I'm vanished, if you press Tab and squint your eyes you can see my name in the sexiest shiny pink color ever. But you have to do it well or your mind could explode in the process.

    I have to say, I find it both hilarious and rather ineffective that when an admin enters vanish they literally explode.
