How is that different from people hiding behind guards in EQ?

You can still kill the player or the guard? So.... vastly different.

Why all this protection type mods? I thought this was supposed to be Redcraft not Carecraft. Can we do away with this?

I cannot agree with you more on this. I originally started the server 100% vanilla in the hopes of making a completely lawless, wasteland of PvP, raiding and Vanilla MineCraft. I'm a very naive gamer, particularly when it comes to MineCraft which I've only been playing for about two months now. Unfortunately, and unbeknownst to me at the time that I opened the server, there are MineCraft hacks. Specifically X-Ray cheats for players to find ore (iron, diamond, etc) and bases. And even with Bukkit anti-xray in affect, Good Guy Gusy my seasoned veteran MineCraft pal told me it's more than easy for anyone to download the map off the server and use the hacks at their own will.
I was disheartened to hear this, of course. So in keeping with the vanilla spirit of things, I added minimal base protection to the server. This is where the sponges come into play. I strive for fairness, and think it only reasonable that players have some way to defend their hours of gameplay to those who would cheat. I'm all for losing it all fair and square, but to have someone's base raided by a hacker just wouldn't be cool. So no, I am sorry but there will be no doing away with the base protect.

Ya how much "Red-PvP" has been going on there lately?

It's not Red if you have an impenetrable bunker you can hide in a the first sign of danger.

Well you'd know if you hadn't stopped playing since the 2nd day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] There's actually been lots of PvP action. Keep in mind you can still kill people inside their protected base. Pease got himself a nice enchanting chest this way. Also we had a fun PvP war with some British gents the other night. So the answer to your question is 'lots!'

Reminder: besides base protect, anti-xray mod, and the /spawn command (usable once every hour to teleport you to server spawn point. People were getting stuck in other players bases they were raiding), the server is still 100% vanilla. So I'd still consider it very RedCraft, not CareCraft. If you see things differently I'd love to play on your 100% vanilla RedCraft server!

So, in closing:

I'm surprised nobody's invaded yet. Territory is huge and in plain sight. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Who said 100% vanilla.... your mod solution is just fail is all.. there is better mod solutions for this out there.

Someone died in a base... they are inherently stupid then... all you need to do is place some blocks. GG
