@ 2crzy - Yes, I had stopped to look at the tips in chat for a few minutes before I posted this and all I saw were the old ones that mention voting on the site here and the Mumble info. I must've missed the channels one, thanks!

@ arsenic_shark: When I login I am at my house, not spawn and I was unaware the spawn signs had changed since I last saw them months ago.

@ AlphaWolf - Like I mentioned, I had a protection stone around my barn. It was an 11x11x11 stone, and inside of it I had my 10x10x6 animal shed. The entire thing was enclosed in dirt, the 3 walls, the floor, even the ROOF was dirt (so no one could spiderman up through the ceiling haha), and the front wall was 2-high fencing, with a single fence gate in the center. The barn was smaller than my stone for that reason, I don't understand how someone can just waltz up and open my gate, it is A) inside my stone and B) only openable by me. I guess now I know they're not just useable by me.

And thanks for the rebuilding help, but I'm just worried about animal replacement right now. As far as finding more goes, I had only one cow because it was the only one I found, and I swear I enslaved every sheep in the tri-county area around my house (I live in the clouds, wool makes good clouds!). Them dang pigs are everywhere though.

@ Mr - I understand she gave more wording than he did, but I would not have been so upset at her as well if I didn't feel I was getting a copy-paste answer from them both. Either of them could have at least explained like Nick did about how they are untrackable in the server's system, and I would have felt a lot less ignored. And no, the only thing I ever edit from posts is misspells, I haven't touched anything else in the post.

Pardon me if namedropping is "against the rules", but seeing as how all of this crap just happened, who enforces them? And maybe if you're scared of your name being dropped, you shouldn't be acting afool.

So I teleport back to my house after a few hours in the Nether to find two guests named "MEK19" and "TheArchangel725" climbing the water to my house. No worries, everything I own except my bedroom is protected by protection stones, I don't mind company. They split and go to opposite ends of my house (I follow MEK) and MEK finds my bedroom, where he steals torches, beds, and wool (my wall pretty much) before jumping out of my house to his death below. His friend is down at the bottom already by the time I jumped, and he hastily picks up my stolen things and runs toward my barn. He proceeds to walk right into my barn (Which has a protection stone btw) and kills every one of my animals; 8 sheep, 1 cow, 5 pigs, and 5 chickens. Loots them all, and runs off.

The first thing I do is ask for an OP to come retrieve my stolen things and to replace my animals, to which I got these replies:

[moderator] awesomealicia: can't replace animals sorry
[moderator] DeadlyLead101: not enough proof

I tell them that I WATCHED the two individuals steal from my house (Mek) and kill my animals (Archangel) right in front of me, is that not proof enough?

[moderator] DeadlyLead101: Not proof enough
[moderator] awesomealicia: we don't keep track of animals, there's no way to say you owned them.

I then waited ten minutes to see if I could at least get my bedroom rolled back to it's original state, no one assisted. I then noticed that the two culprits were STILL ONLINE PLAYING, and asked "Is anyone going to at least BAN THE BITCHES that stole from me?"

[moderator] awesomealicia: we can't ban them if there's no proof
[moderator] DeadlyLead101: no.


Alright, so wtfe then. This is the first time I've played on an open server besides my own, so I've done everything requested of me; I've invested in protection stones for all of my property (except ONE 12 x 12 block space), I signed up on the site, I've voted everyday to assist the site since I joined, and this is how you treat your members? I wonder what kind of shit the [Trusted] members have went through to get that far, I'm not exactly game to continue to have my things taken from me ESPECIALLY when I have stones around my shit in the first place! How did they get to my animals? My protection stone covers the entirety of my barn! It sounds like a faulty mechanic to me, and now I have to go walk all over god's green earth and hope some are still spawned in the wild to replace them? Why are the mods so free to ban trolls and spammers and "griefers", but not thieves that I literally watched in the act? Why not take some of us honest players at our word? I was asked why didn't I take a screenshot while he was killing my animals, and it's because it's a still-frame image of something that was over in literally ten seconds! A picture would have done me no fucking good, especially if "oh man, his hand isn't raised how can you prove he was swinging at them and not just standing there", which is likely the bs answer I would have gotten anyway.

45 minutes after the incident at the time I posted this, and the culprits are still playing. I tried one last shot at getting a solid answer without being blown off, I told Drowse I had my entire barn griefed, and waited 6 minutes for a reply. I was ignored. If no one is going to justify this, you just lost a member.
