↩  Darth A whole new system? We'd be running the same plugin. What would be different between the current setup and now that would warrant the map to be wiped in the first place?

↩  Miwojedk Because some people have plots that contain pixel art, like this.

Increase the plot size to 100x100 and I think people would be much happier. You can't do much with 25x25. Also, wiping the plots is a really dangerous idea, as many players tend to utilize plots as their item storage.

Object, plagiarism is a big no-no.

I was becoming increasingly frustrated by Flarum's broken permission system preventing me from doing my job. Initially I just gave myself Forum Mod just to be able to lock them, but then I noticed I couldn't tag threads as 'Approved' or 'Disapproved', so I had Ryan give me Forum Admin temporarily so that I could tag them properly. This was a temporary solution as it was 2 AM for Ryan at the time and he needed to sleep. The next morning, Ryan fixed the permissions problem and removed me from Forum Admin.

This is also why my predecessor, James, was a Forum Admin.

Vouch. Could we also disable the noises?

Can we still have CoreProtect? It could come in handy in case someone uses an exploit to crash the plot server.

↩ @'kanst' Definitely tits.

Denied due to an insufficient amount of vouches (required threshold is 85%, application only had \~67%). You may reapply in 30 days.

Sorry for the delay.

Welcome back!

Object - Posting your own feces on this forum demonstrates a lack of self-control. While this incident happened many months ago and you were already sanctioned for it at the time, you have continued to show a lack of self-control to this very day through comments you have made on the Discord server. Along with many other admins, I've had to verbally warn you about some of these comments as well. In a position where self-control is one of the many key parts of being an admin, lacking it is a serious problem.

Object.

Just write the coordinates down instead.

↩ @'Ryan' On a larger scale, the implementation would be to add custom events (something Bukkit supports) for a lot of TFM-related events, including admin chats. The potential this would have wouldn't just be limited to adding support for chat services.

↩ @'Ryan' More actual detail on this would be useful... The backlog is prioritises per release regularly, but if stuff isn't being reported or issues not being raised, there's limited things we can do...

I'm aware - this was more of a suggestion towards the community itself but it works both ways.

↩ @'Ryan' This currently isn't possible due to the custom TFM admin chat... It's part of the reason we have other tickets to handle changes to how we do permissions in game.

Actually, it is very possible. DiscordSRV supports adding additional channels to its configuration. We can then modify the TotalFreedomMod's admin chat system to call a custom Bukkit event (to which a DiscordSRV bridge would then catch and forward the message) with the appropriate details. The bonus we'd get from this implementation is that in the future we would be able to hook into the admin chat events and create bridges for other services (not limited to just Discord) with very little development effort required.

A few spring to mind. Most of them are for the sake of maintainability.

• Focus on resolving technical issues before even thinking of adding features.
  The backlog is filled to the brim with suggestions to add cosmetic features which has made development overwhelming and results in less issues being fixed. **We should focus more on resolving technical issues in the server before even thinking of adding new features**.

• Remove the TotalFreedomMod's Discord implementation and replace it with a bridge for DiscordSRV.
  DiscordSRV is harder to break, easier to maintain, easier to work with, and also not an absolute rat's nest unlike the current Discord implementation in the TotalFreedomMod. In addition, DiscordSRV is much more customizable, allowing us to change how things are formatted and handled. Finally, DiscordSRV is more widely supported and used across other servers, which means issues with the plugin are more likely to be reported than they would be with the hackish implementation we have now.

• Use forum software that isn't a nightmare to maintain like Flarum.
  Due to Flarum's modular design (which does have some benefits), maintaining and updating it is very annoying. In addition, its permissions system is a nightmare to work with. According to StevenNL2000, Ryan has refused to add more plugins to the forum to reduce the complexity of the updating process. While the WoltLab concept was a good first step, I believe we could look into something more cost effective if necessary.

• Remove the free-op system and replace it with a permission nodes-based system.
  A lot of the technical issues this server experiences are due to our operator-based system, which has proven over and over again to not be viable for providing the best freedom experience. If we were to move to permission nodes instead, a lot of permissions-related issues (such as WorldEdit not working for new players, /near not working at all, some commands being blocked due to a portion of them being hazardous, etc) would be resolved. The overall experience on the server would be pretty much the same (with many issues being resolved in addition), however under the hood things would be quite different, but still much easier to work with.

These seem like things I would say to be honest.

Holy shit. I haven't seen you since forever.
