Building classic solid entity moving bridges are back!!!(As of tomorrows reboot at ) The bridges that move entities when you stand on them! I know a lot of you loved this old version of bridges and we managed to get the plugin updated to 1.18/1.19 which is utterly amazing! There may be a few kinks with it that we need to iron out, but make sure to just report to #📁│bugs-archive so that we can get them solved!
You can see the Classic build guides still here:

Plot add requires the plot owner to be online on the creative for added people of a plot to be able to break/place! Where as /plot trust allows anyone to build/break at any time!

The move from Legacy nether to New nether finished yesterday! So you can no longer access the old nether!
Anyone that logged off in the legacy nether will automatically be moved to spawn when they log in again.
All overworld portals will go to the new nether world!
We also gained the ability to change the scaling if we ever wanted, for example going X blocks in the nether = X blocks traveled in survival, may be worth considering options if we ever wanted to change that.
Changed /warp nether to go to new nether.
Changed Live map title for new nether to just be Nether with /warp nether in the title.

Web stats are only generated for active players, people that have logged in since we moved to 1.18, that haven't been offline 30 days and at least 1 hour playtime! We don't want anyone in the hall of fame that's inactive! 
Banned players should also not show up
Web stats are updated once every 24h

Boatswain+ Gained a new command! /rec or the long version /recount taken this shows the recounted data for the last 30 seconds! See how much damage you took in the last 30 seconds and from what!

I've had to temp remove shift+right clicking signs to edit signs from everyone, as some people found out they can break shop signs with it, even if they don't have perms!
so all those "random shop signs breaking" isn't random, or a plugin, its player(s) doing it to be smelly bumholes.

Ahoy, i'm back after a long week away with family with no internet! Good brain detox, highly recommend 10/10.
Looks like I came back to some good Brew testing from you lot! So lets kick off with fixing some of the easy to fix things!
Brewing: Nerfed Treasure Hunter Brew as much of a sweat-lord PvP player @jpcello is the intention of the brew (Read its name) in his own words were:
My intention was to create a brew for better ore-output. Instead we made the best pvp brew
Hilarious. Hope you all had fun with that one.
Increased alcohol from 5 to 30
Nerfed increase_damage from 300 secs to 60 seconds.
Brewing: Fixed "Beer and grass on your ass"
I was experimenting to see if I could use brew ID's instead of their names in the config. Seems a name is required to accept it into a cauldron.
ℹ️ *For those that didn't read the blog post, I still need to make all the Discord side of Brewing, I plan to allow players aka YOU to submit your own brews! This whole thing is moving to community built! I started with staff to see how well it would work, and it was amazing. I just have a few more Brewing tasks before I can move onto the dreaded discord, always lowest priority for me * 
Website
Completely re-made the Brewing guide page Its now this absolute gargantuan of all information.
Table of contents jumps to each section
I created a step by step tutorial expanded from my in-game tutorial holograms
Covered all aspects of Brewing now! As well as all the newer aspects such as the Alchemist and Grogmaster rank.
https://piratemc.com/guides/brewery/
Updated the Brewing Guide table with all new brews & who discovered them!
Replaced "type" column of data for "Description" so I can describe brews.
Added Tutorial brew at the start with information as to how to brew it.
Changed the layout of the table, fixed some conflicts with other plugins using the same table software.
All new brew discoverers now have 3D head/name & date for finding, if new brew discoverers found existing brews their name was updated this way too.
https://piratemc.com/guides/brewery/
Changed the entire website container width to not span full width on desktop
This change was made to make reading guides/blog posts/forum threads easier on larger displays, most nearly all major websites do this, Facebook/twitter/Reddit, where content is centered and there's white-space either side, this may inadvertently break the view of some existing pages as I pushed it full website.
Updated custom table software & fixed CSS that was being overwritten by another plugin (grrr) 
Website
Disabled website RSS feeds, they were being used to spy on private forums by slippery snakes via Discord Bots. (good jjjjjooobbb forum developers LOL )

Build of the Month ranks! To follow on with my theme of winning ranks, I have refactored Build of the month winners, we now have 3 Brand new ranks botm1, botm2, botm3
Each BOTM rank inherits the contributor rank you would have got, for example BOTM1 inherits Captain rank, so you will show as green! So its BOTM rank + Captain!
Custom 
House badge for Chat/Tab list/Overhead Tag! Each is colored Gold/Silver/Bronze!
Custom overhead Tag to saw 1st BOTM, 2nd BOTM, 3rd BOTM.
Means it is now possible to give extra perks such as commands or access to special areas! or build in certain areas now too! Actually, we could even have some custom Discord ranks to sync with it too!?
All new BOTM items refreshed! now in one time use kits!
Massive thanks to @TobySF who has re-made the BOTM tools and trophy's, these are now in kits! So when you get your BOTM rank you use the corresponding kit to claim your Items! /kit botm1 /kit botm2 /kit botm3
Claim blocks are auto added when you claim your kit! To automate that prize too!
You now get a message in-game when the Claim blocks are added!
Automated discord message is sent into #🎉│giveaway-events when you claim your kit! So you will know who the winners are when they claim their BOTM prizes!
Kits reset every 30 days, and have a maximum of 6 uses (as a safety feature) anyone that wins more than 6 months of BOTM will have their BOTM kit limits reset!
ℹ️ This is in preparation for the BOTM that just happened, so stay tuned for our first winners who will get to benefit from this BOTM upgrade!
ℹ️ This automates all prizes for BOTM, this means I will be able to create a command for @Media to give out prizes when BOTM is done and out, so the reliance is gone from me!

I have built a custom system to display exported discord channels on the website, its a little hacky but it turned out way better than expected! I'm quite chuffed with the result!
Lots of people don't want to have to have a discord for announcements or changelogs, I don't blame them! Now there is no reason for them to have to sign up to discord!
Homepage now shows latest Announcement from discord replacing where we previously had blog changelogs listed above the blog posts, this was so rarely updated I needed a source of information that was updated regular, that's similar to blog posts, #📢│announcements will now get automatically downloaded, parsed and display the latest message on the homepage.
Changelog blog posts will now be showed with all the existing blog posts, they were not lost!
Replaced the content displayed in the "Changelog" section on the homepage with the latest #📢│announcements (automated)
Added link to the new Changelogs page in this card.
https://piratemc.com/
Changelogs page! #📋│changelogs will now automatically be shown on the website under a brand new changelog page!
I have made a custom pagination system so you can go all the way back to 2019 when Changelogs were first moved from forum threads to Discord #📋│changelogs
One caveat is that all Changelogs are displayed backwards as they are exported from discord! Discord scrolls upwards, websites scroll downwards! So The most recent changelog is at the bottom of the page, I have put a warning to explain this on the changelog page and if you click it, it'll automatically go to https://piratemc.com/changelogs/#recent which will take you to the bottom.
Custom pagination to look at all older changelogs! (MUCH faster than scrolling and waiting in discord!)

Fixed a very odd crash, completely by accident, apparently the blog auto sends a message to "update services" when a new blog post is published. Our list that's been on there for 9+ years untouched had about 20 websites that no longer exist! So when a blog was posted, it hung the website and sometimes crashed! Why on earth these are not automatically checked is beyond me. Anyway, complete random bug I fixed by accident. ♂️
Survival
Fixed tab complete for a bunch of commands you have access to but wouldn't tab complete
This is a bug with the the premium essentials plugin not registering commands properly, so essentials steals the command, but as you no longer have the essentials command, it does not auto tab! I've reported it many times and its not been fixed, so I've manually started blocking essentials from using commands, this is a duct tape fix, this is what I could think of its most likely missing many common commands, message a staff member if you think of any more that need to be added. I cant believe you have all had to use /warps and /tpa this entire time without auto tab! Oof. I have been trying to get him to fix it for ages, and just got tired of waiting.

Keeping chat chill.
Everyone gained the ability to /msgtoggle This was a @Contributor only permission before, but nobody should receive unwanted messages, so I have moved this Contributor perk to Deckhand+. You can also use it via /toggle if you ever forget what the command is.
ℹ️ I now have the option to reverse receiving messages, we could swap it so by default you do not receive messages unless you explicitly turn on receiving messages!
@Helper @Build Leader @Media (Inherits Privateer) gained the ability to mute the entire chat /chatmute server 15m Reason to tell everyone & /chatmute server off
Muting the entire chat is a great tool to let staff calm down anything happening in chat, so they can take their time writing warnings, tempmutes or jails, mostly a tool to let staff breath and think for a second as'well as putting a pause on global chat.
@Helper @Build Leader @Media (Inherits Privateer) Gained the ability to temp mute for up to 72 hours (3 days)
Bumped from 12. Anything above this requires a greater punishment and will be passed onto @Moderator in addition to their 72 hour temp mute!
ℹ️ Did you know you can /ignore people to have them not show up in chat?
Did you know that staff make reports of the top ignored people? This is a great way to for us to see who's a massive pain in the ass, so when you notice someone being annoying in chat, ignore them, report them.
ℹ️ Did you know you can turn off global chat all together? Just use /channel and you can leave Global chat
This will automatically re-add you to global when you log out and in-again. or you can re-join via /channel again later.
ℹ️ You can report chat abuse to https://piratemc.com/support/ or create a ticket on discord!

I'm back! I've been AFK all week without a computer!
All /homes have been converted to premium essentials plugin! This was one of those updates that took a ton of effort & you most likely wont notice a difference. On the back-burner for years. We moved to the premium essentials plugin years ago, it was never able to convert peoples homes from Essentials, due to crashing the server.
I wrote a custom script to convert all homes between plugins.
Why change home plugins? Whats new!?
Having multiple plugins manage teleport between warps/spawn/home/back etc creates random bugs, this moves home teleport under the same plugin as Warps, Spawn, Back so we have one plugin managing all those teleport and hopefully resolving some teleport issues when moving between homes/other methods of TP.
Are there any homes set near my base? We've never been able to check, until today. From now @Admin can use /homes near:100 to show all homes set within a 100 block radius of them This is a major reason I wanted to move home plugins. You can see an example output in the screenshot attached!
Homes now show in a GUI that you can set a custom icon for!! /homes now opens a GUI of all your homes, you are able to set a custom icon (Any block) when you use /sethome (Name a sethome home to get a unique icon at the top of the GUI)
@Admin Can now use /homes <username> to much easier, see, teleport and remove peoples homes, for online/offline players, this is much needed quality of life update.
@Contributor Your death location /dback will be shown in /homes GUI that you can click!
Hold a compass to show you NESW direction you are facing as a bossbar, your Home, Death location, Spawn will show too!
Info button in homes GUI!
Fixed long outstanding bug with overwriting homes you no longer have access too.

ℹ️ Last night when looking up a query for @Bazurka's Trivia Tuesday related to recent home changes, I discovered that a large amount of players don't understand they can set a home, then it dawned on me, they are not taught at any point! This should be something they learn as soon as they spawn/learn how to claim! 
Bananas! my plan will be to find a way to automatically set home once you place your first bed (first time only) but until then, ive updated the Spawnkit with some extra information!
Updated the whole spawnkit for first time spawning! Thanks for the help @TobySF 
Fixed named on everything
Added username to lore of items spawned on all items
All "Function" items had gradient names created and lore added with explanation of commands for more info
Added a bed, this is only description for now on how to set a home, but also serves as a way for new players to die & resapwn too!
Updated bible Title & description to match
Better explanation on the chest lore on how to "lock" chests and fixed the first claim size on it.

Removed newsletter signup from the sidebar as we only made one newsletter
Removed a plugin that let you feature a gallery you had made on your profile, this was never used.
Closed & Hidden inactive forums.

Replaced the old sketchy discord ticket system with a better one, No longer reliant on commands! Press buttons and fill out forms!
Use #🚩│support_ticket and press the button to make a ticket. MUCH simpler than needing to use a command.
@Helper can now manage tickets so anything serious you only want admins/mods to see, please use https://piratemc.com/support/
I created 2 new Categories for Open/Closed Support tickets
Tickets are limited to 1pp, so one thing can be solved at a time, if this becomes a bottleneck it can be increased!
Im using https://tickettool.xyz if there's anything else you want enabled with it.
Added #🙋│community_support Forums as a way to ask the community for help on how to do things! So we have Staff Team/Community support now!

Added premium survey plugin for this mornings reboot, once its all booted I will be able to start adding surveys/polls again on the server for community votes on things! (The old polls plugin never updated past 1.12!)
You'll know theres an open survey, because a book will pop up when you log-in, requesting your answer, so you don't need to do anything or look out for anything, as soon as one is available its all automated! And it'll not pop up again once you have answered!
Possibility to target specific ranks of players, so we could target only the most active pirates, or bypass deckhands for example!
We can make surveys as text/GUI/books, they can accept written answers via chat if we need more feedback, and it should be able to post results from a Survey to Discord once they close! So you can view results in Game or Via Discord.
Small/basic prizes will be awarded for voting, Maybe we need a survey on what to have as a prize for answering the survey

Web stats are only generated for active players, people that have logged in since we moved to 1.18, that haven't been offline 30 days and at least 1 hour playtime! We don't want anyone in the hall of fame that's inactive!
Banned players should also not show up
Web stats are updated once every 24h Survival
Re-added Recount plugin - recount what killed you, what dealt the damage and display the name of the item that killed you!
This will be automatic, on death you will get a detailed breakdown of what damage you took, this works for PvE and PvP! This is for everyone, so Deckhand+
Boatswain+ Gained a new command! /rec or the long version /recount taken this shows the recounted data for the last 30 seconds! See how much damage you took in the last 30 seconds and from what!
ℹ️ Was originally removed as to test to see if it was the cause of PvP Lag, but its been gone so long im going to assume it wasn't I completely forgot I bought this plugin!
Prevent /back into Claims for untrusted people (Untested)
This plugin should prevent people using /back into un-trusted claims. Simple as that, untested so I will rely on feedback from @Helper

Ahoy, i'm back after a long week away with family with no internet! Good brain detox, highly recommend 10/10.
Looks like I came back to some good Brew testing from you lot! So lets kick off with fixing some of the easy to fix things!
Brewing: Nerfed Treasure Hunter Brew as much of a sweat-lord PvP player @jpcello is the intention of the brew (Read its name) in his own words were:
My intention was to create a brew for better ore-output. Instead we made the best pvp brew
Increased alcohol from 5 to 30
Nerfed increase_damage from 300 secs to 60 seconds.
Brewing: Fixed "Beer and grass on your ass"
I was experimenting to see if I could use brew ID's instead of their names in the config. Seems a name is required to accept it into a cauldron.
ℹ️ *For those that didn't read the blog post, I still need to make all the Discord side of Brewing, I plan to allow players aka YOU to submit your own brews! This whole thing is moving to community built! I started with staff to see how well it would work, and it was amazing. I just have a few more Brewing tasks before I can move onto the dreaded discord, always lowest priority for me * Website
Completely re-made the Brewing guide page Its now this absolute gargantuan of all information.
Table of contents jumps to each section
I created a step by step tutorial expanded from my in-game tutorial holograms
Covered all aspects of Brewing now! As well as all the newer aspects such as the Alchemist and Grogmaster rank.
https://piratemc.com/guides/brewery/
Updated the Brewing Guide table with all new brews & who discovered them!
Replaced "type" column of data for "Description" so I can describe brews.
Added Tutorial brew at the start with information as to how to brew it.
Changed the layout of the table, fixed some conflicts with other plugins using the same table software.
All new brew discoverers now have 3D head/name & date for finding, if new brew discoverers found existing brews their name was updated this way too.
https://piratemc.com/guides/brewery/
Changed the entire website container width to not span full width on desktop
This change was made to make reading guides/blog posts/forum threads easier on larger displays, most nearly all major websites do this, Facebook/twitter/Reddit, where content is centered and there's white-space either side, this may inadvertently break the view of some existing pages as I pushed it full website.
Updated custom table software & fixed CSS that was being overwritten by another plugin (grrr) Website
Disabled website RSS feeds, they were being used to spy on private forums by slippery snakes via Discord Bots. (good jjjjjooobbb forum developers LOL )
Left them all one last forum thread for their spying feeds. The OG snake video https://piratemc.com/topic/slippery-snakes/:discord: Discord Giveaway

Auto tabs!
Added Cross-serer proxy chat again, use ! before your messages!
/me also still works cross-server!
ℹ️ Both of these are classed as proper channels, this means you can leave them to not get the messages. use /ch you will auto be re-added to them when you log out and in again.
ℹ️ Hover over & Click the messages to auto fill your chat box with ! or /p by just clicking the messages you see in chat! Survival & Creative
Build of the Month ranks! To follow on with my theme of winning ranks, I have refactored Build of the month winners, we now have 3 Brand new ranks botm1, botm2, botm3
Each BOTM rank inherits the contributor rank you would have got, for example BOTM1 inherits Captain rank, so you will show as green! So its BOTM rank + Captain!
Custom House badge for Chat/Tab list/Overhead Tag! Each is colored Gold/Silver/Bronze!
Custom overhead Tag to saw 1st BOTM, 2nd BOTM, 3rd BOTM.
Means it is now possible to give extra perks such as commands or access to special areas! or build in certain areas now too! Actually, we could even have some custom Discord ranks to sync with it too!?
All new BOTM items refreshed! now in one time use kits!
Massive thanks to @TobySF who has re-made the BOTM tools and trophy's, these are now in kits! So when you get your BOTM rank you use the corresponding kit to claim your Items! /kit botm1 /kit botm2 /kit botm3
Claim blocks are auto added when you claim your kit! To automate that prize too!
You now get a message in-game when the Claim blocks are added!
Automated discord message is sent into #🎉│giveaway-events when you claim your kit! So you will know who the winners are when they claim their BOTM prizes!
Kits reset every 30 days, and have a maximum of 6 uses (as a safety feature) anyone that wins more than 6 months of BOTM will have their BOTM kit limits reset!
ℹ️ This is in preparation for the BOTM that just happened, so stay tuned for our first winners who will get to benefit from this BOTM upgrade!
ℹ️ This automates all prizes for BOTM, this means I will be able to create a command for @Media to give out prizes when BOTM is done and out, so the reliance is gone from me! ️ Host
Updated OS & Java

Updated Proxy server Website
I have built a custom system to display exported discord channels on the website, its a little hacky but it turned out way better than expected! I'm quite chuffed with the result!
Lots of people don't want to have to have a discord for announcements or changelogs, I don't blame them! Now there is no reason for them to have to sign up to discord!
Homepage now shows latest Announcement from discord replacing where we previously had blog changelogs listed above the blog posts, this was so rarely updated I needed a source of information that was updated regular, that's similar to blog posts, #📢│announcements will now get automatically downloaded, parsed and display the latest message on the homepage.
Changelog blog posts will now be showed with all the existing blog posts, they were not lost!
Replaced the content displayed in the "Changelog" section on the homepage with the latest #📢│announcements (automated)
Added link to the new Changelogs page in this card.
https://piratemc.com/
Changelogs page! #📋│changelogs will now automatically be shown on the website under a brand new changelog page!
I have made a custom pagination system so you can go all the way back to 2019 when Changelogs were first moved from forum threads to Discord #📋│changelogs
One caveat is that all Changelogs are displayed backwards as they are exported from discord! Discord scrolls upwards, websites scroll downwards! So The most recent changelog is at the bottom of the page, I have put a warning to explain this on the changelog page and if you click it, it'll automatically go to https://piratemc.com/changelogs/#recent which will take you to the bottom.
Custom pagination to look at all older changelogs! (MUCH faster than scrolling and waiting in discord!)

Fixed a very odd crash, completely by accident, apparently the blog auto sends a message to "update services" when a new blog post is published. Our list that's been on there for 9+ years untouched had about 20 websites that no longer exist! So when a blog was posted, it hung the website and sometimes crashed! Why on earth these are not automatically checked is beyond me. Anyway, complete random bug I fixed by accident. ♂️ Survival
Fixed tab complete for a bunch of commands you have access to but wouldn't tab complete
This is a bug with the the premium essentials plugin not registering commands properly, so essentials steals the command, but as you no longer have the essentials command, it does not auto tab! I've reported it many times and its not been fixed, so I've manually started blocking essentials from using commands, this is a duct tape fix, this is what I could think of its most likely missing many common commands, message a staff member if you think of any more that need to be added. I cant believe you have all had to use /warps and /tpa this entire time without auto tab! Oof. I have been trying to get him to fix it for ages, and just got tired of waiting.
Fixed auto-tab complete for
/warp
/warps

Keeping chat chill.
Everyone gained the ability to /msgtoggle This was a @Contributor only permission before, but nobody should receive unwanted messages, so I have moved this Contributor perk to Deckhand+. You can also use it via /toggle if you ever forget what the command is.
ℹ️ I now have the option to reverse receiving messages, we could swap it so by default you do not receive messages unless you explicitly turn on receiving messages!
@Helper @Build Leader @Media (Inherits Privateer) gained the ability to mute the entire chat /chatmute server 15m Reason to tell everyone & /chatmute server off
Muting the entire chat is a great tool to let staff calm down anything happening in chat, so they can take their time writing warnings, tempmutes or jails, mostly a tool to let staff breath and think for a second as'well as putting a pause on global chat.
@Helper @Build Leader @Media (Inherits Privateer) Gained the ability to temp mute for up to 72 hours (3 days)
Bumped from 12. Anything above this requires a greater punishment and will be passed onto @Moderator in addition to their 72 hour temp mute!
ℹ️ Did you know you can /ignore people to have them not show up in chat?
Did you know that staff make reports of the top ignored people? This is a great way to for us to see who's a massive pain in the ass, so when you notice someone being annoying in chat, ignore them, report them.
ℹ️ Did you know you can turn off global chat all together? Just use /channel and you can leave Global chat
This will automatically re-add you to global when you log out and in-again. or you can re-join via /channel again later.
ℹ️ You can report chat abuse to https://piratemc.com/support/ or create a ticket on discord! Survival

Thanks for the awesome screenshot @MrLimeWise Survival
@Admin can manually start the 10 year barrel-aged event & they can also manually close all doors in the arena with a command.
Don't ask them for this, this is if they fancy doing a manual trigger for the event in addition to the hourly!

Calling all Creators!
This is now one universal competition that will always be open, anything that is created will be rewarded with Treasure Chest keys per creation added to PirateCraft!

Updated ViaVersion (Lets you use newer clients on older server software!)

Fixed Voting on all websites! This will be nice to have voting back! /vote
I have replaced Vote4 website (TopG) because of how they now require people to use social media to login, this is a disgusting grab for data, so I have boycott them.

I'm back! I've been AFK all week without a computer!
All /homes have been converted to premium essentials plugin! This was one of those updates that took a ton of effort & you most likely wont notice a difference. On the back-burner for years. We moved to the premium essentials plugin years ago, it was never able to convert peoples homes from Essentials, due to crashing the server.
I wrote a custom script to convert all homes between plugins.
Why change home plugins? Whats new!?
Having multiple plugins manage teleport between warps/spawn/home/back etc creates random bugs, this moves home teleport under the same plugin as Warps, Spawn, Back so we have one plugin managing all those teleport and hopefully resolving some teleport issues when moving between homes/other methods of TP.
Are there any homes set near my base? We've never been able to check, until today. From now @Admin can use /homes near:100 to show all homes set within a 100 block radius of them This is a major reason I wanted to move home plugins. You can see an example output in the screenshot attached!
Homes now show in a GUI that you can set a custom icon for!! /homes now opens a GUI of all your homes, you are able to set a custom icon (Any block) when you use /sethome (Name a sethome home to get a unique icon at the top of the GUI)
@Admin Can now use /homes <username> to much easier, see, teleport and remove peoples homes, for online/offline players, this is much needed quality of life update.
@Contributor Your death location /dback will be shown in /homes GUI that you can click!
Hold a compass to show you NESW direction you are facing as a bossbar, your Home, Death location, Spawn will show too!
Info button in homes GUI!
Fixed long outstanding bug with overwriting homes you no longer have access too. Survival
Added custom recipe to craft a Bell as you can only trade/find them. Thanks to @godsdead for the suggestion in #deleted-channel.

Fix found for editing your home icons in /homes instead of middle clicking press Q when hovering over the home you wish to change the icon for!
Updated premium suite of essentials plugin for next reboot Survival
ℹ️ Last night when looking up a query for @Bazurka's Trivia Tuesday related to recent home changes, I discovered that a large amount of players don't understand they can set a home, then it dawned on me, they are not taught at any point! This should be something they learn as soon as they spawn/learn how to claim! Bananas! my plan will be to find a way to automatically set home once you place your first bed (first time only) but until then, ive updated the Spawnkit with some extra information!
Updated the whole spawnkit for first time spawning! Thanks for the help @TobySF
Fixed named on everything
Added username to lore of items spawned on all items
All "Function" items had gradient names created and lore added with explanation of commands for more info
Added a bed, this is only description for now on how to set a home, but also serves as a way for new players to die & resapwn too!
Updated bible Title & description to match
Better explanation on the chest lore on how to "lock" chests and fixed the first claim size on it.
ℹ️ Did you know you can make custom items like this on creative? /customitem did you know you can submit any item kit changes into #🎁│kits and #🎁│kits2 Did you know you can select the tag "Spawnkit" in #🎁│kits2 to design your own starter kit you think players should start with? Or just submit changes/additional items? Creative
Added /itemcmdata to Firstmate+ on Creative, allows you to check or add/modify an items custom model data for testing models for resource pack!

♀️ Increased forums speed by removing some crappy legacy plugins.
Removed a few legacy plugins on the website:
RIP Forum status plugin, this was fully removed from the wordpress plugins database, so there must have been a major issue with it, removing this increased the forum speed dramatically.
Removed old forum search plugin as it was abandoned/inactive
Removed newsletter signup from the sidebar as we only made one newsletter
Removed a plugin that let you feature a gallery you had made on your profile, this was never used.
Closed & Hidden inactive forums.
Closed & Hidden https://piratemc.com/forums/donations/
Changed forum sidebar to match the rest of the website, bit weird we had differnt ones
Fixed a random spacing issue with the vote widget on the sidebar
ℹ️ Still having issues with the online users widget, I am looking for a fix! Discord
Replaced the old sketchy discord ticket system with a better one, No longer reliant on commands! Press buttons and fill out forms!
Use #🚩│support_ticket and press the button to make a ticket. MUCH simpler than needing to use a command.
@Helper can now manage tickets so anything serious you only want admins/mods to see, please use https://piratemc.com/support/
I created 2 new Categories for Open/Closed Support tickets
Tickets are limited to 1pp, so one thing can be solved at a time, if this becomes a bottleneck it can be increased!
Im using https://tickettool.xyz if there's anything else you want enabled with it.
Added #🙋│community_support Forums as a way to ask the community for help on how to do things! So we have Staff Team/Community support now!
♂️ Just remembered as I'm writing out this changelog. Created #👹│custom-mobs this is now for the faint of heart, read the forum description carefully!
Archived #📁│support_archive Survival

Added premium survey plugin for this mornings reboot, once its all booted I will be able to start adding surveys/polls again on the server for community votes on things! (The old polls plugin never updated past 1.12!)
You'll know theres an open survey, because a book will pop up when you log-in, requesting your answer, so you don't need to do anything or look out for anything, as soon as one is available its all automated! And it'll not pop up again once you have answered!
Possibility to target specific ranks of players, so we could target only the most active pirates, or bypass deckhands for example!
We can make surveys as text/GUI/books, they can accept written answers via chat if we need more feedback, and it should be able to post results from a Survey to Discord once they close! So you can view results in Game or Via Discord.
Small/basic prizes will be awarded for voting, Maybe we need a survey on what to have as a prize for answering the survey Discord
Disabled the old ticket system, I went through and answered every open Discord ticket, if your ticket is outstanding make a new one #🚩│support_ticket
ℹ️ If there are any outstanding #📁│bugs-archive that need to be moved to #🐛│bugs can you get them done soon please, as I want to start removing all these archive channels.
Survival
I forgot to post the changelog, but back when I fixed /vote I re-enabled Voting in /rankup again. Discord
Added second Ticket system just for unverified Discord accounts, that can submit a ticket specifically if they have an issue verifying their account, this shouldn't be used for anything else, and it is limited to 1 ticket per person, Much cleaner than the "write in this channel" system like before! These messages will go to @Helper onwards.
Was able to delete the old HELP channel that was there before, one less channel! One less cluttered mess!
Updated the look/message of #🚩│support_ticket with a fancy animation and more information! Discord
More Discord sorting.
Re-wrote #📝│information under the Creators section to explain the category.
Re-ordered the categories to be player-most used first, instead of staff most used.
