The server is down for scheduled maintenance as follows:
  1. Full backup / clone - Done.
  2. Switch to modified version of EE - Done.
  3. Upgrade of TekkitRestrict - Done.
  4. Install & configure a new small plugin - Done.
  5. Tidy up main permissions file a little - Done.
  6. Make several config changes - Done.
  7. Fully test relevant changes - Done.
The server is expected to be back up and open by 11am UK time.

I decided to not make any changes to banned items for now, some aspects still need a bit more testing.

Scheduled Downtime On Monday

There will be a scheduled downtime on Monday to perform a number of changes as follows:
  1. Full backup / clone.
  2. Switch to modified version of EE.
  3. Upgrade of TekkitRestrict.
  4. Install & configure a new small plugin.
  5. Tidy up main permissions file a little.
  6. Make several config changes.
  7. Fully test relevant changes.
As a result of the modified EE mod there is likely to be a number of changes with regards to banned / restricted items, I'll post a list of changes and update the website once everything has been tested.

We should also see a noticeable reduction in CPU overhead as for example, changing the max charge level of an RM tool at the mod level is much more efficient (and reliable) than having the mod charge it and then the plugin discharge it a fraction of a second later. 

Downtime Monday;
Start:    9:00am (UK) 
Finish:  10:30-11:00am? (UK)

New Moderator

xPhantomY2Kx has been promoted to Moderator, making him our 2nd regular player to reach this rank, congratulations!

New Powers For Helpers & Mods

As of now Helpers are able to use the CoreProtect inspector tool to investigate griefing to ensure the responsible player is jailed etc as soon as possible.

Moderators also now have access to the CoreProtect rollback and restore functions, meaning that they can roll back griefing incidents, please bear with them as they learn to use these tools, they take a bit of getting used to!

Both Helpers and Moderators can now also send other players to spawn if stuck etc.

Updated versions of the Handbooks are also now available for download!
