Yep, without notice. A problem with ore generation, any glitches/bugs will be dealt with immediately. Its still not perfect but at least you cant get easy diamonds now, so expect another adventure world reset without notice.

As KleverKrafter said 'People who have been around longer know to approach any new shiny thing with caution until we work out the glitches.'

A big thank you to everyone running the sever during my absense, I know there were quite a few problems Kelvin had to fix.

I'll be home in another day, but wont be online much the next couple of days. Current we are at Amsterdam waiting for out first flight.

Best regards,

Mark & Catherine. ...

Permissions are not fully tested, not entirely confident this will work for VIP groups, no time test it at the moment. Let me know if you cant access any of the world ...

The server will be in whitelist mode tonight to start on a much needed permissions update. The current permissions plugin is not fully compatible with bukkit which is causing problems with permissions not working as they should and development of GroupManager has been abandoned. The server will be online although you will get kicked when you try to join. Ive no idea how low this is going to take, don't be surprised if it's a day or more, and when you can get back on there will probably only be basic permissions enabled ...

VIP+++ is not an exemption from the the few simple rules we have and the way you speak to others. If Klev, Top or Zick have to tell you what's not allowed or not appropriate then don't try to get around them by asking for my 'ruling'. Now two VIP+++ players are having a little break from the server, hopefully their respect for others will return with them. I was not happy at all when I check the log for the last 15hrs.

Here is a few important points to be aware of, although I sure you really should be fully ...

Complaints about server settings are getting annoying. I don't consider what I have seen lately in the logs as suggestions. Suggestions are normally posted on the forum for discussion or directly to me, NOT b!%#ing and moaning to other players about what I should or should not be doing.

Plugin settings are 99% of the time set to DEFAULT, ie what ever the plugin creator decided it was best for their plugin

If I change something it will be because I think something is too easy and doesn't fit in with my idea of the survival part of minecraft. EG disabling MCMMO from giving you random items when digging, glowstone was only ever to be found in the nether and not in the overworld. Tardis backdoor, disable because its to easy, setting home locations in the Tardis, end world and Nether as it was never intended for you to be able to port around to any world when ever you wanted to, its not Stargate of Star Trek.

Below are the current (DEFAULT) settings for the Tardis, if you want to know what it all means you will need to read the docs yourself. No more whining about me changing settings to odd values please.
