This is an unfortunate result of using a simple on/off switch in MediaWiki, which means that guests can't see any pages by default except the Main Page. I'm sure it was not not intentional. I'm sure it's not intentional because we've never actually populated those pages with anything, they're just there by default in MediaWiki (and if we had made them, I'm sure we wouldn't want to hide them from guests). Thank you for making us aware, but anyway the server has never really had a written privacy policy/disclaimer that I know of, anybody can just ask gabriel and I'm sure he'd delete their account, plus chat logs are not kept permanently.56independent_actual wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 10:32My server might end up in Spain so i've been looking at privacy policies so i don't go to prison as soon as it is sent online.

Shut up and stay away from this forum for some days, come back in a week saying sorry to everyone for your childish behaviour especially to yw05/ywang, he is not evil, you might see him evil bc you didn't really talk to him.
If you got permabanned there is not really much to do. If you got a tempban then wait without making polemics and when (if) you'll come back do not make talk about this BS again.

Re: [Server] LinuxForks (Lots of trains)
wired, trap city is another meaning then limited access or what ever I read at beginning of this ...
* no access is clear, I stay away
* trap city sounds more like an adventure, I may have a problem, but it is not forbidden
when I build traps on my server, they are behind a wall, inside my private area, when only bug diggers might find them and die

Re: [Server] LinuxForks (Lots of trains)
The German translation of this Text got me a bit further, but56independent_actual wrote: ↑Mon Dec 26, 2022 23:29"Trap" refers to the player ████, who built the city and put it under embargo, crippling ███ city and turning ██ into █ derilict area full ██ danger (the text before has been remove due to misinformation).
as I did it some time : I show the gamer position or found bones with how that areas was secured and not possible to enter without violate like bug dig or cheat ... and post on youtube = gamer is silenced as everyone see it, and others are clear warned also
so make a video of that part which chow clear how this NOT entering city is clear shown or maybe closed with walls, and where banned gamer was found = more than thousand words.
BUT your server, I have not been there (Trap City) = I have no idea how that is locked, your decision ...
but his/her/it response posts ... uhh

Re: [Server] LinuxForks (Lots of trains)
Anyone who wanders into Trap City is told never to come back unless invited, and given plenty of warnings. If you stayed after repeatedly being told to leave, that's on you. However, I still think that Trap City is too easy for noobs to wander into and have this happen. It's like Brightline: You can complain forever that people are dumb and it's their fault for driving into the path of trains, but the solution isn't to make smarter people, it's to make better crossings or grade separation. Wall or ditch around Trap City, anyone?

Re: [Server] LinuxForks (Lots of trains)
I have mixed feelings on this actually, and TestBrother's case actually involves a few factors here.Blockhead wrote: ↑Tue Dec 27, 2022 02:47Anyone who wanders into Trap City is told never to come back unless invited, and given plenty of warnings.

Wall or ditch around Trap City, anyone?
Building a wall around the area is quite unrealistic, honestly, considering the size of TC - and that does not count in the time you need to change the wall if you expand the city; as 56independent pointed out above, teleport pads are a thing, and have been (internally) quite controversially discussed as well.
Something that Och_Noe and trap did do was to add areas with warning names. In fact, when I teleported to TestBrother the first time, one of the areas literally had the name "DO NOT ENTER - RESTRICTED AREA - CONSTRUCTION (Trap City)", and I told him about it and teleported him to Origin (0,0,0).
That said, there is something that was apparently overlooked when it comes to preventing people from entering the area: trains. Specifically, S20 and E4 still run to TC, and it was also where I saw him for the second time at around the same location, although on a train. The justification was relatively simple and understandable;
- He was on a train (for the record, the train appeared to be in the direction of TC)
- His destination was to another part of TC that did not have the "DO NOT ENTER" warning
By the way, as both S20 and E4 end in TC, and there are other routes to other places, so there is little justification for being in TC to be in transit to somewhere else.
Then he was seen on the tracks near the same area again - twice, in less than 2 minutes (I looked up some records) after I teleported him to Origin; the last time, it was only around 1 and a half minute after I teleported him back to Origin.
For the record, the place I saw him was about 3400m away from Origin, which is obviously not reachable by train in such a short time (from my timing, reaching there from the nearest station outside TC took over 3 mintues, or 3:28), and he was not inside a train either, which leads to a further offense of walking on the tracks, which is not allowed except for the operator of the line or service and for moderators, as there is no known way of aesthetically securing tracks that lead to private areas. (By the way, some moderators take the latter very seriously). Needless to say, this is not something normal.
Joking (or the lack of research) is acceptable until it becomes offending.56independent_actual wrote: ↑Tue Dec 27, 2022 09:52Work Smarter, not Harder.

The Flugabwehrkanone only affects glider users (and is part of the mod that provides hang gliders), and there would be enough problems arising from adding more areas (remember that commands such as /list_areas are currently O(n^2), and this already prevents moderators from using that command).

Re: [Server] LinuxForks (Lots of trains)
If that was the only to address:
In other words, the admin would then spend time WE-ing constructions site walls instead of working on other things, and that does not take into consideration that this is a survival server.
Also, terrain differences mean that you need to take quite some care to make the wall not look ugly, which would likely involve more work than building the wall manually (with a digtron) in the first place.
I do not recall mentioning this as an effective way of keeping intruders out.It's not much. It's like a sign saying "KEEP OUT - PROSECUTORS MIGHT BE CAUGHT" outside of a closed shop with doors wide open. Shoplifters will still lift.one of the areas literally had the name "DO NOT ENTER - RESTRICTED AREA - CONSTRUCTION (Trap City)",
I am not sure what makes you compare TC with "a closed shop with doors wide open", considering that the terrain between TC and Spawn/Origin is mostly mountainous, and there is not much significant settlement nearby when it comes to the scale of walking.
It is possible to make the train reverse athe the station before TC, and it is not hard, considering that having trains reverse at termini is quite standard on the server and also part of the interlocking exam.Simple solution; build a balloon loop in the station before Trap and then send trains down the balloon loop instead. Or just skip all the stations in Trap City. I've done it on my server with significantly less Advtrains knowledge.That said, there is something that was apparently overlooked when it comes to preventing people from entering the area: trains.
I do not know much about the network in that area, but my guess is that it is simply overlooked, or the operators there have certain reasons not to shorten the service.
This does result in more areas though, such as buildings or stations with private sections (the latter is not particularly uncommon, as I have seen freight sidings in quite a few places near stations.)I meant add a flag. Like Flak, but for people. To use an example, no need to add another command (MakeDirectoriesRecursivelyAllTheWayDown vs mkdir) to Linux if you can specify another flag!The Flugabwehrkanone only affects glider users (and is part of the mod that provides hang gliders), and there would be enough problems arising from adding more areas
