Flooding chat with "i was jailed for no reason" is not an acceptable "explanation" to be let out of jail - especially given the AMOUNT of Grief I just found when I extracted the grief log in detail. I found that Decca2908 had griefed jazza72's small merchant castle near the merchant spawn/sams castle. But due to the over 19000 blocks he has placed or mined, he was jailed instead of banned; - pending an explanation. Any of those 19000 blocks can be added back to the server in any specific area (eg projects he helped with) as needed. Failing a decent explanation he may still be banned. But I prefer to hope he had a good excuse. HOWEVER, in grabbing the attached log, after noticing he and his friend had been logging in and insisting he had not been griefing it also appears he was one of the people that griefed the "TOWER APARTMENTS" building recently - which grimnir and the other staff found smashed up and covered in lava a while back. In fact this tower is right next to the castle he griefed. Given everyone else involved in THAT grief, has been banned, he better have a damn good excuse for doing it. There are several reasons I can think of; few of them good. Especially annoying since most of the players who built "tower apartments" have not been on the server since their project was griefed - even after we attempted to repair most of it. The main reason why all of his blocks (or any other major grief) were rolled back incidentally is quite simple. 1: I found an area where he had done nothing but grief blocks; 2: logic would suggest that he is just as likely to have griefed other areas of the server we have not found yet; 3: thus the safest course of action is to rollback ALL things touched by that player; 4: if it turns out anything interesting was built by him as well, that can be restored by itself - this has happened in the past where a griefer pretends to be a friend and helps 1 or more players, then as soon as people log out, they go around and trash everything.

maybe unjail him and take him to the castle he griefed, coords should be in the log file.
Its in one of those small castles on the road to brotherhood.
He smashed up most of a guys shop in there, and poked various holes there and in the tower apartment complex.
I am reluctant to let him have unsupervised access to the server, until we get a satisfactory explanation why he would be griefing these buildings, and claim not to have any knowledge of it.
Actually I think i just found a use for the restrict rank.. set the spawn in cybertron muahha

but what happens if he has Ft signs or warps in his list. You would have to clear his ft list and warp list.

I was pondering that myself, the fast travel signs require an access perm, since the restrict rank specially has chat only perms, in theory ft should be denied to them. It is also possible the stargates will reject him as well. However FT perms were never fully tested, so there is a small possibility there. As for warps, no player ranks can use them except on previously placed signs, and the essentials.warp.sign.use permissions is missing on restrict too as i recall. Is decca even still coming on, the logs show him logging in at unusual hours, and less and less frequently. Plus unless a staff member has spoken to him about the grief and gotten any sort of explanation, his been jailed a while now - he may have rage left the server by now. From the last chat i saw with him, he couldn't find this forum either, despite several of us trying to point him to it. but what happens if he has Ft signs or warps in his list. You would have to clear his ft list and warp list.
