1. The Community is against the idea of claiming land.

*Allowing players to claim any unclaimed land they want in flatlands

I think you have a tendency of twisting what people have said into a more convenient truth for your argument.

2. It's pointless.

No, it isn't. It provides much better passive grief protection than CoreProtect. With CoreProtect you have to actually notice the grief occurring which may not be possible if there are no admins online or the admins weren't spectating the griefer at the time of the incident. Whereas with PlotSquared, provided the checks are decent enough, admins won't have to deal with people destroying other's builds.

Just go to F-01 flatland, then build a 100x100 (or so) primeter of slabs and boom, you now have a plot! No PlotSquared, commands, or any of that bloat stuff! See, you don't need PlotSquared or a dedicated Plot server to make a plot.

Without the passive grief protection (which is kind of the point of the plotworld in the first place)

Quote from characterslimits

the plan to split plots to its own dedicated server should be cancelled

Personally, I agree here. I don't see any reason for migrating it to another server except for, I don't know, the fact that the F-01 node is massive.

Yeah... Because all characters are UTF-8 more often than not nowadays, your point?

The point is, we already can use unicode characters on Discord (both tags and usernames) so why not Minecraft as well? If we wanna be consistent on how we moderate this server, then we would have to ban all users on Discord that have a tag/nickname that contains at least one character that isn't A-Z, 0-9, and an underscore.

*Sigh*... Because people can use &k to iterate through thousands of Chinese characters per second and tank the framerate...

Happened to me with some pcs, it's usually crappy hardware or motherboard firmware. Windows surely plays a part in not helping.

While this certainly is a possibility I doubt so as it's happened with near brand-new hardware.

I feel like the "blue screens every month" part is a bit of an exaggeration.

Well, it's not for me. On every computer I've had Windows on it seems to have an unfortunate tendency to bluescreen every month or so. Whereas on Linux I've only had ~2 kernel panics and that's been because of my firmware simply not being fully supported yet.

Object, the tag filter prevents people from imposing as administrators.

The middle click button for some reason is set to CTRL+V, which becomes increasingly infuriating when you're trying to close a tab or scroll up. I have yet to figure out a way to change this.

Yeah, I find this annoying too, and seems to be implemented on multiple levels in how Linux handles applications and input. Seems like this package is a working hacky fix, though I haven't tried it and as such try at your own risk.

Getting a decent-looking dark theme for GTK aside from what comes with XFCE4 is a genuine pain in the ass. I do not like dark themes that are actually tinted a certain color. They just look bad in my opinion. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find a dark theme that was grayscale

I agree with this and is why I generally try not to theme my installs. Dracula seems to be a pretty good theme, all things considered. Also, since there's an abundance of GUI frameworks for Linux it gets tiring applying themes for all.

systemd fucked with my bootloader settings on my gaming computer, which led to me having to change my boot order again (which often caused my firmware settings menu to freeze instead) to make rEFInd the top boot priority so that I could access my Windows 10 partition again.

Seems like you're encountering some sort of firmware issue here... Your firmware settings menu should absolutely NOT freeze.

Quote from videogamesm12

I'd still prefer Windows though where possible because Windows has much better polish in my opinion.

Yeah, if your definition of a polished operating system is one that blue screens every month and the newest release is a poorly painted coat of paint upon 8 different UI styles... At least with Linux it looks *somewhat* uniform.

Neutral, I agree with Red and I'm also not sure how well you would handle administrative duties.

I object, I see no point in this.

Quote from characterslimits

Still doesn't change the fact unicode characters are allowed on Discord

Yeah... Because all characters are UTF-8 more often than not nowadays, your point?

Quote from characterslimits

Disagree, tags are what represents people. For example, admins have an [Admin] tag that represents they're an admin. Also, users set tags that represents they're a member of a group or guild (since TF-Guilds has been archived and removed from the server). You're saying those isn't as integral?

Tags are simply decoration to the display name. It doesn't matter if someone has a tag saying they're in some guild or an administrator if you don't know who those tags believe to. As such, in my opinion, display names are more integral.

How exactly?

I haven't really seen much of Fedora, I'm guessing its worth looking into then?

Vouch, I think you've been banned for long enough.

Object, I don't think it's beneficial for server banned players to be able to read the server chat.

We're already planning on migrating to permission nodes in issue FS-461, and the retirement of the command blocker should be a natural consequence of the issue's completion.

Object, while I feel the community should have a say in the nomination of an admin, their promotion is something that should be done fully internally and outside of the public's ire.

The hell? Why don't they allow using PayPal for paywalling adult sites?

Object: I don't see the point of adding this to Freedom-01, however I do believe that it would be useful in master builder worlds.

You see, this is why transparency is important, by vouching on suggestions like Maintain a public list of indefinitely banned players and ongoing requests you are putting administration in check. Nothing good has happened when players are silently banned and this is one of those instances.

Yes, I agree and this is why I also believe execution of heinous criminals should be made a public spectacle again.

Please don't duplicate suggestions...
