Addressing exploits *again*
I have been absent for a while now for medical reasons, but I'm just going to post this.
This is basically a cross post from a previous post made by Frase for Tekkit Classic
This guys, till applies to EE3 as many of the recipes have been disabled for the same reason. While i will not reset the map, I will disable EE3 and ban anyone that says "its part of the game." EE is a mod, a mod that I can easily just turn off the server and disable the mod. The only part of the game is the Vanilla itself, all mods can be easily disabled.
The iron to enderpearl recipe was removed cause it cause an exploit to the market. if you want enderpearls, you can go out and kill enderman during the night. This server is a SURVIVAL server after all, nothing is going to be handed to you on a silver platter. If you want something, go out there and get it, complaining will not get you anywhere.
I know some users are using ee3 with enough sense to not exploit, but I don't want to come back from the hospital and see that users are complaining about a banned exploit. I am sitting on the edge of having to go back to hospital for a major operation, so the last thing I want to do is dealing with users that think a banned exploit means the end of the world.
Now to quote Frase
I was extremely disappointed when I found how many players were low enough to take full advantage of this exploit, no, more or less disgusted at it.
As a result, the server will be down until we are able to resolve this exploit, which is proving to be difficult.
When I reluctantly spent hours enabling EE on this server, I thought that the least you guys would do is have the maturity to play the game properly and not cheat by using these exploits. After the market has been griefed twice now, a griefing staff member, a creators excellent build destroyed and now this exploit, it has become apparent that I thought wrong.
I will try to have the server back up as soon as possible, but this is everyone's last chance, if this happens again then I will not hesitate to disable EE again and reset the map, inventories and the economy.
If you are one of the people who chose not to take part in anything like this, then good, but I ask of you to please inform Zombyte, Myself or any staff member as soon as you find/notice something, communication is key, and we are always listening.
Finally, if you comment on this trying to say that this exploit is "a part of the game", then I will ban you on the spot.
