General server updates

[Pri]

I thought I'd update you all on what I've been doing lately. Today we updated to the latest version of Java, a few days ago we updated to the latest version of Spigot. I've also updated our Permission system, Essentials and Towny to their latest. Today I added the Portable Horse plugin as a lot of users have requested a way to teleport and protect their horses I think this plugin fills both needs quite nicely.

On Tuesday I sent our old SSD the Corsair Neutron GTX 120GB back for an RMA. I hope to have the replacement next week. We are going to continue to use the Samsung 840 Pro 128GB SSD but the Neutron will be kept as a backup so if the Samsung fails we can swap them over while the Samsung is being replaced.

I have added a new 2-factor authentication system for our six administrators so that other users cannot login as them under any circumstances. This is due to all the recent exploits that have affected Mojangs shitty login system. I may be extending this to Moderators as-well.

I've added recently some Towny functions to our Admin Control Panel allowing any of our staff members to view information about a town such as who the assistants and residents are and allowing them to easily select one of those users to take over as Mayor, I'll be expanding this as time goes on.

So that is the state of the server right now, updated and running like a well oiled machine. I'm going to be working on our software in a few weeks when things quieten down at work and then hopefully get our Cards feature finished.
