Developer presented a “fix” that may or may not fix crews being deleted. I have applied this update, and I have pushed a backup of crews and members from the 9th to the database, this is now live.

I will keep this thread open to diagnose if there are any more issues, if after a few reboots everything is fine then reply in this thread and I will close it.

Current Crew stats:

• Crews: 224
• Players in crews: 1463

“they don’t see the potential I could have, all because of one thing”

That one thing was knowing an abusing a glitch for 3 months, and not reporting it. I mean, if I suddenly realised I could get into a base by abusing a glitch, I would pester the staff, 24/7, to get it fixed. Anyone with a sense of decency would do that. However, you used it to your own advantage, and only came clean once you realised the game was up. That’s not commendable, that’s downright disgraceful.

“I was making some semi-descent builds that I do wish to finish, but oh well”

You have potential? Lemme guess, the staff are oblivious to your many talents, if people understood your creative genius, no one would want you banned. Dude, building a few houses doesn’t make you exempt from the rules. Staff, please close this and ban him already.

I asked people if their leaders left the crew to figure out if that was the error occuring, everyone said no,but in the logs there is this (snippet)

Were people creating parties and leaving them?

I’m sorry that my actions were untimely, I really should have tested in a less hostile manner, and I deeply apologize, though that doesn’t make me guilty free from trying to take out michty who was also not wearing armor at the time, sorry.

Oh, this is comedy gold. I mean, it could only get better if he brought his idea of charity into the matter…oh, wait, he did…

“so I surrender, I give up trying, but I now understand that this bug still exists, and I would very much appreciate it to be formally notified to the admins, because it is by far the most op glitch in existence on this server”

You knew this to be the most OP bug on the server, and knew of it for three months, and only now, once you are caught, you feel the need to inform staff. Having used this bug, for THREE BLOODY MONTHS! YOU KNEW OF A GLITCH, AND ONLY NOW INFORM STAFF AFTER GETTING YOUR FAIR USAGE OUT OF THIS? Dam right, you better surrender. Dam the rest of you scummy lot for defending this guy. As if posting pictures of helping a newbie, or a shoddy stone wall, will get you unbanned, as you allow people, yourself included, to abuse a glitch for three months. I’m done, Ii really am, with the general attitude of some people. Name, the fact you can defend someone like this actually sickens me. You have the mindset that the BE is the bad guy in this? When these guys have been raided by someone abusing glitches?

@markusi13 @godsdead and @anyone with a brain. Ban this SOB. @smokeyriver and @calliemav too.

I am endorsing michty’s statement from above. He stated it as it happened.
I witnessed Ben_SkyWalker_ coming somehow through a closed iron door under siege conditions which can only be described as glitching.

Luckily we did not give him time to tp his friends in.

Bazurka

I can prove ! I was there with michty and saw how he glitched throw the door, somehow tried to break it and suddenly was in !

Hilariously I got stuck in your portal the other end and had to use the console to get myself out! I came on yesteerday to re-test these crew homes spawned next to the portal and was like, Oooo I wonder where this goes.. Oh its a trap… @Cysteen PM me the coords of the portal again and Ill remove the claim. While were on the topic, does that mean people can strategically place portals in the nether to get into bases? Is that possible?

Yes, placing portals in the nether at the right coordinates will allow you to get into certain bases, under specific requirements: There needs to be enough space in the Overworld to be created and there needs to be no other portal in the area (or they will connect.) The tactic is rather easy to counter and honestly isn’t that big of a deal. I thought this was banned though? This way of raiding is neither harmful (besides a few missing blocks at the location of the newly created portal) or overpowered. It can be countered by creating a blocked off portal or simply making sure there’s no spot in your base that would allow a default size portal. (The tactic is rather underpowered to be honest. You also need the exact coordinates of the inside of the target’s base and then you need to go to the Nether world’s counterpart’s coordinates…divide the Overworld coordinates by eight?)

also @Godsdead there is a way to fix this if someone does this to u, @michty knows how to, i forget 😛
