Removal of the old griefed houses.

(1/9) > >>

Hi guys and girls,

I know that this has been suggested before but we really need to get rid of the griefed houses around the spawn. Mods cant fix it because they need to delete others' blocks so we have two options, 1- someone will take a lot of wood an fix the buildings, or 2- we can have a plugin or something who can delete all the buildings created by the player(we have something like this right?). I'm pretty sure that those houses around the spawn are 5-6 months old or even older... Mods Can find the player who built it by log block and then if he is not been on in a few months then they can delete all the stuff. Pretty simple. In the event that he come back on, they can redo the changes and after that, everybody will be happy. Also at the easttown, there are lots of deadly holes. I died there 3 times and lost all the valuable stuff. I'm planning on repairing the floor there as much as possible. Anybody want to join me? :)

Thank you for reading :D

Not that I don't support you in this matter, but what if those people plan to come back soon. They will return to find their houses gone and they will need to start again.

Good idea atdf, I support it.

Your desire to help the server by repairing the holes 1x1, is appreciated I believe from the server.
I want to mention some thing though.
About two-three months back, the server rolled back all the areas near spawn. Many people including the Moderator Omaroo2, lost their homes. It is very risky, repairing the spawn area. Moreover, the server is almost 6 months old. So, if you consider the old Roll-back, then the homes are at their maximum 2-3 months old.
Instead deleting the homes, as we have said, the mods, can start repairing some of them. 2-3/day would be a good rate.
But, this has to be decided by the staff members.
And because you mentioned something like mail. You can't delete the homes of those that are away, If you notify them, then you must wait for a while. Some of them, may return, may not.  What are you gonna do? Will you wait forever? This is an almost not possible scenario.

I guess you could call this a philosophical question. You rollback the houses and when the owners come back online, they will be very angry, but at the same time you could wait a loooooong time for them and annoy the crap out of people with the griefed homes.

You do one thing, and it has consequences, so one could quite practically say that the staff of Opticraft is indeed 'stuck between a rock and a hard place'. You will have to make a decision, and that may be to avoid the above question and instead try to repair these houses. However, such a task may require a long time, and then griefers may ruin the repair efforts.

Such an option will not be easy to choose, so please choose wisely, and 'prepare for the worst, but hope for the best'.
