Okay, so draaaaaaagging this thread back ON topic, just so it's on public record...
ExeterDad and Kibbie, PVP is technically okay on this server, but what is the policy for mass murderers who have turned into a nuisance? I.E. melanie12 and melanie13, he/she has turned into a public menace. Do moderators have some leeway in dealing with killers and those that insist on hanging out in other people's houses? I've been accused of being too strict for kicking people who are obnoxious, but..well, I'm strict! We've discussed this, and it makes the play experience so much worse for everyone when we don't act on some of these chronic offenders. I've also used the tactic of random tp'ing killers across the map to get them away from spawn, to kinda give them a hint that they're being pests.
Thoughts?

Policy for mass murderers that are being extreme pests:
Do what you are already doing :P
If they continue after being tp'd everywhere, depending on how bad they're being, either temporary ban (at least 1hr) or kick and then some sort of ban (probably just a longer temp ban). That's what I do at least.
We have plenty of leeway to do stuff. Plenty of players will complain about being "strict" but who cares? (I don't :P)
I annoyed a ban-evader to death by making him think I was a hacker and then spam killing him and tp'ing him 200 blocks in the air to die when he hit the ground and then revoke his interact or shout, etc... He was not happy.

Also kinda wishing I knew what to do with players that sethome in someone else's house. No good way to undo that, except maybe a tempban if they refuse to leave?

I will nudge octacian in the ribs to remind him to update multihome to allow anyone with a certain priv to modify player's homes.

No need for lava (which requires lava priv anyway) - just fill the location with stone or cobble and wait.... XD

FYI, for the record, had to ban jonasQ today. He was glitching in and out of all sorts of places that he shouldn't have had access to. He was breaking walls with a BOOK and getting through them. LW and I agreed that he is likely a hacker, therefore, insta-ban.

ExeterDad: Consider this mod maybe? Gameplay is boring sometimes. Maybe make the damage and health rise slower so that newbies have a chance though xD

DC, what GreenDimond said is correct. Although for some of these repeat offenders, we will defer to you (and the other Mods) and trust the judgment of our Moderator team because we don't witness everything you witness. If you have witnessed the offender repeatedly making gameplay unpleasant for many other players, and the offender has not responded to any corrective actions... ban them for a good long time, they aren't welcome on the server.

Luna-HD was only temp banned for 24 hours and was told she is "under watch." If she doesn't respond to the temp ban, she will just be banned for a longer period of time. One year will probably do the trick. ;)

Gameguy1000 was already under watch and had already been spoken to, and he decided to continue to harass other players including a staff member. As far as I could tell, his sole purpose on the server was to harass others. So, he got a year. Buh bye now!

Players find so many subtle nuances of rule breaking, it's very difficult to come up with one consistent punishment/length of time. Also, I am more inclined to be more lenient if a rule breaker is otherwise a decent player who brings positive things to the server as well. If someone is obviously on the server just to be a jackhole, they can go play somewhere else.

Clear as mud? lol

Here's a cool mod: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=18057#p282669
If you do get it just don't make it replace nyancats and maybe say HOMETOWN instead?
