Have not been whitelisted on server

[CaptainChexx]

Hey guys I just got back on minecraft and tried to join the server like i have many or multiple times before, and now all the sudden im not whitelisted? I havent done anything to get banned or anything like that so is there a solution to this problem? thanks!

Hi. This server (smp.opticraft.net or  creative.opticraft.net) Is a public server, and therefore does not have a whitelist. It may be possible that you have mistaken our server for another one that is a whitelist server. If not, then happy gaming! Read the rules and enjoy the community!
