I'm building a large Roman city and temple and I've cleared out a swamp biome, a jungle biome, and part of a desert biome. I really wish that this land was safer than it is, especially because of some glitch where you can glitch out of the little spawn area I made at my /home.

If a players clears a forest and has an active build on it, how are players supposed to know that someone else cleared out the land? Especially if the land is big enough, there would be no way to know. Our current rules were made because we feel it is the best and easiest way to do land.

Well, maybe there should be a rule that if there are visible signs in the area claiming the land, and it looks leveled and cleared, then building there is grief?

Then we would basically have a race to claim all the land on the server.

Seriously guys, the current system was well thought out and we had our reasons for choosing it. We didn't take decisions like this lightly.

DJAlphaWolf:
The only reason people complain about this is because they either lack the ability to communicate with people  so they go cry to mods to deal with it or they're just impatient as hell.

If the person you're trying to communicate to refuses to talk to you on the matter, wait patiently for a mod to deal with it. Inactive players, we can remove stuff. If they are still active, expect us to attempt to COMMUNICATE with the players first. And that could take some time.

Find something else to do in the meantime. I'm sure there are thousands of other things that you could possibly work on.

Just my personal opinion...

I disagree here. Everyone has their own view on what 'inactive' is. Plus, the owner of something could have sold the house before becoming 'inactive'. Or better yet, they could be co-owning the house with another player.

It's too risky to be removing anything, no matter how long someone has been offline for.

Which seems like a pretty clear issue

        Thats a very debateable topic, boh sides have a good arguement to them. Lets start with the current rules. I know that these may seem unfair to you, as they also do to me, but as you said, people could easily take advantage of this if we changed it and people waould be just clearing tons of land. On the other hand, people could invade on your hard work. As for your suggestion, I know you are sort of implying that we should get free protection for our land, But that's not how it works. To me you implied that in the sentence:" Now if player A clears a chunk of land and has part of a build going on it should they have to pay out the ass for a crazy amount of protection stones? Simply put...no." It would be unfair to hard workers that have already stopped whining about this and just bought their own protection stones just because other people were too lazy to work hard to get money to buy them. Lets say you get what you want: No more protection stones, just auto protect. Can you iagine how much our economy would fall? I'd have to say that protection stones are proably our (almost) most bought item in the market. If people suddenly got free protection pople would own mass amounts of land, yet have nothing to do with it. And also, lets say i'm a new player, just looking for a spot to make a house. But everywhere's taken, I become confused and angry and quit the server. See my point? I propose we make do with what we already have and make the best of it.
