I'm pretty sure you've only been banned twice on our server, but one of those times was a three month ban so we made it count. If you have been permanently banned from JT2, you must have really messed up - SK doesn't issue bans lightly.

Actually, I've been banned a few more times for smaller things, so just 5 minutes-2 hours.
Well, I had called SK an idiot, so........ VERY stupid of me.

Server max_lag is sometimes 21 or even more. Is everything ok with server?

IIRC that number is easily skewed as it's the max lag from any player on the server, so someone signing in with a crappy internet connection will bring that number up even if the server itself is fine.

I could be wrong though, that's just what I remember off the top of my head.

Edad, could you reduce the time it takes for the crushing furnace to do its thing? 4.5 minutes to grind 1 cobble to 1 sand is just too long.

What is the name of the very long road to the south-east? I've searched for road signs along the road but couldn't find any...

From Front Street head east into Applecrest Way then you'll reach an ending T-junction... if anyone turn right at the junction then they will go to the very long road to south-east... I can't find any sign that show that road's name... The road started from a junction in Harmopia Avenue...

Starting of the road at Harmopia Avenue:
Image

The end of Applecrest Way / Front Street to the junction of the long road to south-east:
Image

I take the older map from the thread and edit it to show the road:
Image

I'm asking this because I'm pretty sure the road has had some names, because it's one of the early roads built on the server...

I believe Front St. was to run the full length from East to West. And that road you show that runs North to South is supposed to be Applecrest Way. There was deleteblocks or something (a while back) used in that area that triggered mapgen and wiped out that intersection (and other areas). I think when I rebuilt the intersection, I neglected to get the street signs correct.

Either the road names have been changed, or that map doesn't have North on the top. Spring Street goes East/West, not North/South.
EDad: Can minetestmapper take a daily/weekly picture of the map, say, 1000 nodes from spawn in each direction to put on the website?

I don't know how they run offhand BBmine. I was going by the posted image above and assumed North was on top.
About the maps. I've got a script together that goes much further out than 1k and makes "tiles" of map. I just haven't gotten as far as laying out thumbnails of those maps in a table or some sort of grid to be displayed on the future "map page" on the HT forums. These thumbnails will be clickable. I got pulled another direction to do other stuff as the priority was less than other things.

Eventually I will. I have to be careful though. Our farming is edited so I have to be sure not to overwrite our changes.

oh... I do find it weird that it goes directly from Front St. to Applecrest Way...

The sign saying Front Street
Image

The other sign saying Applecrest Way
Image

so it's safe to say the long road is actually Applecrest Way then? xD

@Baggins: the top part of map is north... Spring Street has an L-shaped road around the spawn, connected to Front Street on one end and Water Street on the other end...

I was absent for some time, in a few joins I've noticed it is very laggy, one day it was 2.5 (max_lag), today when I joined - it was 6-8, noticed slow chunk load too. Seems abnormal to me, please look into this.

I was playing here last night and some of today. I've stopped due to the unbearable lag. Meaning carts are unusably laggy, chest take ages to open, and players jolt around a lot. Graphs show big gaps. I really recommend lowering the player limit if the server is stuggling - there's a definite compromise between not turning people away, and having good performance for online users.

Also, another thing - escaping jail is very easy, and you can just teleport after. Really you should come out in the spawn area, and not be able to teleport or change your skin until you work sufficiently far away.

I assure you we have been trying to discover what's been going on.
There hasn't been any mods added for quite some time other than the Halloween related ones that have since been disabled. We have however switched our auth.txt to the sauth sqlite database. We've been doing a vacuum full on our 41 Gig postgresql database weekly and running autovac constantly. I have been trying different settings to attempt to tune the database to get it optimized. However I'm wondering if I should be turning autovac off or way down since we are full vacuuming every week anyway. I suspect when postgresql's vac is writing the database is locking preventing access for Minetest. I also wonder if the conversion of player files to Minetests new players.sqlite is a issue as rubenwardy noted massive writes to the sqlite database with every inventory item added/removed. We also prune redundant players nightly and run vacuum on all the sqlite databases nightly between restarts.
Seems the more we try to optimize and do things "right as possible" the more something breaks.

And I'm convinced "someone" out there is running some kind of bot script. Ours, and many other servers get hit with waves of players with numbers at the end of their names. And I don't believe they are all players from those mobile apps everyone's complaining about. These players have no rhyme nor reason to how they move about and "interact" with the server or players. This is the reason I've upped my player limit. I was tired of the server always being too full for our regular players to join.
Earlier when I was on, there were 78 players on. Spawn was crawling with players wandering around a couple blocks at a time and picking their noses. I'd bet only a few of them were real players.
