No-Half-Measures wrote:Or just Spawn Area Protection? Like Minecraft you can define an area around spawn to which can't be modified unless OP. With Minetest it could be the Privs Flag or a New Flag.
yes, an Area protection over spawn would be a good thing but, I think, chunk restoration is better...
why ? because I think most of the common grieffing comes from :
20% of newcomers that mess things by descovering the gameplay
and who don't know how to fix what they've done...
80% of 14 years old Kevin who think it's cool to destroy things (let's call him "Stoopid")
now imagine :
"Stoopid" logs in and start trying messin' around...
with area protection he can't do anything...
He can't stand it, so he stay longer on the server,
untill he find a place that could be destroyed...
but with chunk restoration around the spawn, Stoopid is happy, he feel like a though guy
for he have ruined this house...
and then start searching another server to destroy....
each 24h, the spawn point will automaticly be restored :-)

I don't think people on Kray's server will be very happy with that solution !
No-Half-Measures wrote:Or
- Noclip/Fly requires having a new flag called Fly or noclip
yes for the new flag.
I don't know how it works, but I suppose there is an easy way for the activation of fly flag
to be automated... (perhaps the time connection of each player allready appear on server's logfile ?)

not a magical solution but, in my opinion would solve a lot of current problems....
(sorry for my bad english (french powa !) )
Yeah that's much to what i do, i teleport myself a fair distance away and build around there. less chance of being greifed then.
this is what smart people do ! and with a new flag for flymode (first unactivated for newcommers) we should have a chance to build in peace
