We should reset building permissions when switching to a new map, then be very selective as to who is promoted to citizen and who isn't. I've had it with the griefing.

Makes sense, lots of 1 post wonders requesting to be promoted (or a friend of a member).

Perhaps prior to reset we can open a sum forum (as it is a Neowin hosted server) and in that subforum we can have polls to let the community vote on rules such as post counts for citizen status, and other limits and rules, that way we can have it all decided prior to the update, whenever that may be. We could also use it for specific discussions and have a thread entirely dedicated to build permission requests.

Yeah, a few other locations have been griefed as well. What I suggest is that you need to have been a member of the community for X amount of time and/or have a minimum post count of X to be able to be whitelisted.

So, no one was a fan of my idea for a MC Server sub forum / poll page for the server?

I like it. But what if someone like myself has low post count, but currently a contributor to the minecraft community?

I second the idea of a community poll for the rules. Obviously Timan would have the ultimate say (veto power), but voting definitely sounds like an advantage of this Minecraft server being tied to Neowin.

The rules on length of Neowin membership, post count, and warning level also sound like a good idea. However, it would probably take a little longer for mods to check member's status, and therefore longer for access to be granted.

I don't know how feasible the following suggestion would be since I don't know how the IRC system is setup on the back-end, but would it be possible to create a system like we have for IRC that links each user's Minecraft account to his Neowin account? The system could decide whether a user should be promoted to citizen status based on our basic requirements. If a member is allowed access, his Neowin username, Minecraft username, and citizen status could be added to a table in a database. We could then use a Bukkit plugin to check the user's status against the database when he tries to login.

You didn't quite wait long enough. I was writing my reply when you asked.

Sorry, I keep forgetting how slow things can be around here, the page is not really all that active.

I also wasn't logged into Neowin when you asked the question. I just login occasionally to check things as I have time. I only read your post a few minutes before you asked if anyone agreed with your suggestion. If you want an instant response, the best place to talk is probably IRC. A day is probably sufficient delay on the forums for enough members to have read your reply and contemplated a response that you could reasonably ask if anyone agreed with your suggestion or if the dearth of responses indicated a lack thereof.

It is very rare that I have access to IRC during the day, as I am working lol. I have plenty of access to the forums, via my phone.

Also, the ability to create protections/apply for protections on the server would be a useful addition, especially in Creative.

Also, Bug Report: The portals at Spawn are bugged out and don't do anything upon contact.

And a question, why is it when I go to type, it'll say "Stop ADS!" in chat?
