Survival Servers Changes

[Pri]

Just now I've made some changes to the Survival Server.

I feel that Admins and Moderators on this server have had long enough to complete the spawn. You've had WorldEdit and VoxelSniper enabled for around two months and that is more than necessary to complete the spawn in my opinion. If anything I feel some of you that had wanted these tools enabled to complete the spawn dragged your feet a little and then abused the tools in building things off the spawn island which is disappointing but inevitable I suppose.

So Mods/Admins can now no longer do the following:
Use WorldEdit or VoxelSniper
Use the Give command for getting blocks or set themselves or others to Creative Mode
Change the time in the server
Warp to stargates directly without first accessing a gate to dial with

However you can still TP to players for catching griefing. I hope this will keep the server fair for all players and that there will be no more abuse. If any holes are found that allow staff to exploit any game mechanics or commands to get blocks without working for them I'll fix those as they come up.

Thanks.

I did pretty much finish the palace exterior and kinda forgot to tell you I was finished.
Sorry about that.

Have people really done this? Kinda takes away the challenge and staff-user equality from SMP.

I am so glad you did this.

Yeah, I understand, and agree with this. I know i kinda got a bit pissed off when Rav told me he wouldn't turn some dirt into grassed dirt for me, but I eventually got some help on how to make it possible w/o the use of magical creative mode. Which I guess proves the hardships one must go through in SMP, which only makes it more fun. I am pretty excited in seeing if the grass grew on the dirt I wanted it to grow on yet.
