I'm actually very fun at parties 
yea when you turn 3
Plenty of games have 3rd party servers and still have platform enforcement.
console platforms shivering
If your 3rd party outsources things, maybe?
oh i know the answer
Servers that buy everything off mc-market and 3rd party devs be like 
"4th party vendor risk" seems to be a thing, so yes, 4th parties exist 
Servers that source everything from FOSS projects
it's the independence day anniversary celebration in america, i dont think other countries have 4th parties
Wait that's everyone
oh i replied to the wrong guy
america doesn't even have a 3rd at all 
I'm starting up 5th party server hosting
I hope you got the 2011 Xeons ready
I'm starting 6th party, be even more protected
oh I know which company!
4th dimension
I have to work on them!
2009 xeon is a car?
Which company
Get a 2004 Pentium so you can say "3,8 GHz processors"
I bet its like AWS or someine
128GB of ram
oh isn't Xeon a cpu
DDR(something)
catch message, resend it as tellraw-like message... 
i have a server at home thats straight up DDR, no number
Lmao what
So its from east germany? 
her servers also forget their nameservers regularly
who
you
you're never allowed to touch my servers
*/15 * * * * echo 'nameserver 1.1.1.1\noptions edns0 trust-ad\nsearch attlocal.net' > /etc/resolv.conf
literally fixes it
no issues

come to think of it i havent had garage notifications in weeks

This is cursed
thank you
My god
what's more cursed my solution or the problem itself, cus it randomly sets the nameserver to 127.53.0.1 or smth all the time
oh
systemd-resolved?
Or resolvconf or whatever
I think its probably systemd-resolved
you have to configure that instead
If you remive the crontab entry and once it changes check for any comments in /etc/resolv.conf that say what manages that file
this is on al aptop if that matters
anyone got any mod pack recommendations?
Fabulously optimized

what?
my joke? basically, linux networking is fucking ass
or, at least, the userspace BS is
systemd-resolved makes this a lot more sane
Instead of random shit trying to edit /etc/resolv.conf and overwriting each other (networkmanager, tailscale, pihole-like things, etc) they all coordinate via that
hmm?
what's the issue here
oh, yeah. too used to people being confused about adventure components
well, at least the nullable annotation on that is correct, that is not really consistent within the bukkit API annoyingly
I am guessing there was some Crtl C ctrl V action there
Will there be a way to disable this chat reporting option? It seems pretty unpopular in the community.
Idk pretty much everyone I've talked to doesn't like it and on the top two posts today on r/Minecraft that bash the chat reporting system have 17k and 12k upvotes.
yeah well reddit is an echo chamber
Alright well I plan on doing that, I don't intend to get banned from my own server.
Yea you're not wrong
Minecraft have millions of players. Reddit is also an echo chamber
also it should be noted that we still have no idea how mojang will be moderating aside from the vast categories
I've also heard some people say that Mojang will be implementing chat reporting into previous versions via their authentication server. Is this even possible?
You can start reading the discussion from here #general message
we do not need to talk about this topic every hour
what can be said is already said for billionth times already
and no there's no way for them to backport this, there's extensive client and server changes to make this work
Thanks, I'll check this out.
Alright that's good to know, thanks.
(I mean technically they could backport it, but doing so would break everything that modifies the client/server that touches chat, and Mojang knows better than to do something like that)
I'm not too worried about it (I think it's just a bunch of fear mongering) but I thought I'd get some information since some of my players are worried.
Love eternity.
Best mod by far


Did you just properly capitalize your search term
it gives to extra luck
!ban @warm anchor Just doing the lords work

Is discord suffering, or just me?
Yea, took that message a good 3 minutes to send
in typical Discord fashion everything is displaying as green on the status board though :/
Discord moment
has paper said anything about 1.19.1 and its reporting system and plans?
yes, i recommend using the search function
discord is having issues this week
this week?
discord is just being quirky
There was also a Cloudflare outage that affected Discord, along with a good percentage of the internet
idk why discord has a beta when it literally releases all its features half done
lmao
electroniccat came out in support of pumpkins masquerading as pineapples
cat please comment
if people say chat reporting in 1.19.1 is bad just make paper force disable signed chat so client cant report players /j
What server hosting should i use for me and my friends i have one hosted on a rasberi pi for me and my friends but it was slow and i just want something easy that i can use Geyser and floodgate
how do i invite @thorny flicker
private bot
dedicatedmc.io or bloom.host
thanks
Dedicated doesnt allow me to use the au plan
You're looking for an Australian host?
If so, https://pixelpond.io/
I heard that a lot of redstone repeaters could cause a lot of lag. Would a lot of active repeaters cause ping lag or frame drops?
should i use pixel pond or https://dedicatedmc.io/ server
DedicatedMC.io strives to provide hosting on the best hardware there is. With top of the line AMD Ryzen 5 & 9 CPU's, lag is a thing of the past!
You just said Dedicated doesn't allow you to use the AU plan?
what
oh dedicatied
omg
isnโt US-AU ping like 70
no, usually much higher
yeah thatโs just using the speed of light and the distance

v=x/t
okay... anyway
@restive hinge if you're looking for a good host for Australia use PixelPond
ok
You're still paying 15 bucks for the server inside the US, whereas pixelpond's first plans are 11 bucks, tis a no brainer
Idk, ur mom

I've totally never spent a meeting half listening while playing Tomba! on my Steam Deck or watching a YT video, no never
You see, I would have to focus so fucking hard on a meeting to not get distracted
If I started playing a game, or watching a video, all focus for the meeting would be gone lmao
Our meetings tend to be so the PM can get up to date on what we've been doing, not for us to discuss things
Other than the 5-10 minutes I need to talk about what I've been working on I can usually tune the rest out, either I already know what they're saying or it isn't relevant to me
"Amaranth, how have you been progressing on x task?"
"One sec, about to get a new PR on this game"
I usually just walk laps around my house during meetings though so I'm listening
Yeah I'm a huge wanderer when i'm on the phone 
But when I'm not feeling very productive I'll fire up a game or YT for a few hours and try again later and sometimes those overlap with meeting times
Oh yeah, even in person I pace sometimes when explaining things but on the phone I can never just sit around unless I'm tied to my keyboard at the same time
Standing desk means that isn't a thing, I can easily walk over and do things still
Incorrect serverโฆ
They are gonna cause both but frames wont be too noticeable
However the server is gonna cry
If the player report function doesnt get improved will paper have a way to block or improve it?
if you agree can you please upvote this suggestion? I think the report feature could be improved a lot. https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/7168139537037-player-report-function
this was my idea
wtf is this
dedicated server hosting in china
hetzner
I also added a suggestion to be anble to set your server to private so if you get banned you can still play whit your friends
when you get banned, you dont get to play mc at all, no matter what server.
The sanction is on the MSA account, not on the server it got reported on.
don't get g-banned then
minecraft pro feature
Paper will not block anything like that.

back in (damn spambot)
Am alive again
Only 90min till I can get drunk again, 200 year celebration at company ๐
I was really scarred I did something stupid when waking up because I had like a billion twitter notifications, but it were just "anarchy" kids
What is it with americans not understanding the concept of hate speech and hate crimes in general?
hey , im facing a problem in my bungee cord server where all users have same ip so when i ip ban someone every one gets banned
and yes and made sure that ip forwording is true and in spigot setings and i sat my server ip to 127.0.0.1
extra info : im runing my server on ubuntu
bungeecord is enabled as well in the spigot.yml?
But thats probably something you should ask on whatever discord bungeecord uses
welp that's pretty shit
Guess I'll just have to always play with https://modrinth.com/mod/no-chat-reports just in case
Or, you know, follow the rules
Welp. Dont go around soreading hate soeech etc and so you dont fet reported. And shouldnt affect you. Ppl can report you for ages already. Now it is just moved ingame
The difference compared to before is that now it's more secure + verifiable, and it's easier
I mean it seems incredibly stupid that you could potentially get banned for "profanity" (at least I'd assume so since it's a report category
now that I think about it it means that #general message would potentially be ban worthy if I sent it on a minecraft server 
ah I've just found the release candidate changelog
The description for the โDrugs and alcoholโ category has been updated to โSomeone is encouraging others to partake in illegal drug related activities or encouraging underage drinkingโ
That's better than potentially getting banned for mentioning the existence of alcohol ๐
Also, at least to me it's pretty obvious that punishments will only ever be issued for really severe cases
I agree that they need to communicate more and better, but that's why snapshots exist
and yeah the "profanity" category has been removed
Tbh it seems a lot more reasonable now but even just the fact that they ever had such wide ranging and way too stringent rules is going to make everyone assume bad faith w.r.t. the report system in general...
Again, that's why snapshots exist. Test new features and refine them
Servers can block such players quite easily tho
require secure profiles pog
Which I assume many servers will do
Cause only players who are planning to break the rules will install such mods
Easy way to block troublemakers
I mean, sure, but that doesn't change that this appeared to have been the actual plan at some point - for sure it was going to change in some way but it seems to me about as much of a faux-pas as, say, starting a conversation with someone you don't know by asking them for sex or something stupid like that
I'm 90% certain they just copied existing Xbox report categories
Wait, you are telling me Mojang listens constructive to feedback? :O
Man I can't English today
It's waaay too early
I'd assume many servers won't unless public opinion widely changes on this
You judge public opinion by a vocal minority, that's dangerous
Many of the big servers will and that's enough
The vast amount of players approve of Mojangs plans to make the game safer for everybody
They just don't engage in flame wars on Reddit
I mean I don't think many people disapprove of plans to make a game safer on that principle lmfao
Well, that is what this is all about
Also, again, the only thing new is that now you get a fancy menu and it's verifiable who send the message. Reports have always been possible
Just makes the whole process more secure and easier for everybody involved
Plus it's only a multiplayer ban now
avg papermc general discussion ๐
In the past they had to rely on logs and screenshots and therefore couldn't really do much
I get why Mojang's situtation, but i think they shouldnt be able to ban us from multiplayer while we have to run them and invest energy into maintaining them, i think this would be better if this rule only covered realms servers or smt.
I mean I actually haven't seen anybody anywhere have positive feelings about this anywhere except here for now
Enough people in here who appreciate it
Funnily enough mostly people who have been in this community for a long time
and without further information which doesn't seem to have spread far I think any reasonable person would think "you could potentially get banned for profanity" to be a complete garbage policy
they removed profanity as a report reason
yeah but people don't seem to know about that
Then "people"should actually inform themselves before spreading misinformation
But oh no imagine actually reading up on things and not just getting angry on Twitter
there communication was pretty bad on it, but the new system seems alright
it only covers the really bad stuff now and that is fine for me
"people" generally trust information from a reddit thread that seems credible enough, or, say, a youtuber they watch all the time that hasn't updated their video in any way (for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdoFUhd0EkI), enough that they don't go in depth to go make a detailed investigation just in case everyone is being stupid
Today we'll discuss how Minecraft's New "Rules" Are Terrible. This latest update is causing much uproar in the community, especially the anarchy/2b2t community.

If you enjoyed this video about how Minecraft's New "Rules" Are...
is that... true?
why so?
if one deserves a ban on one server for any critical/illegal topics, they are a problem for whole community, which server ever they are on. compare it with VAC of steam games.
"bad" players aren't a good addition to multiplayer games ๐
Randomly generated semi transparent noise because the quilt discord are grumpy and insisted upon a non transparent pfp. I don't like it.
Is there anyway to remove the anti xray only for operators in paper
There is a permission node to bypass it
I mean even if you have a VAC-ban you can still access any non-VAC servers
what is it
if u dont mind me asking
Should be document in
right.. comparable to offline servers ..you can still go there, but you won't bother normal community anymore
Did you consider checking the docs?
I mean offline servers don't have any authentication at all...
that's their problem ๐
also actually can you even join any servers if you're banned ?
so not even offline servers
"cracked" clients can.. they don't care about the ban
thank you
because no account
Offline mode, but you need to start in offline mode
Nvm try https://docs.papermc.io/paper/reference/world-configuration#anti-xray @warped abyss
found it tysm!
yeah, but also like you compared, theres an option to allow VAC banned players to join ur community server, so i think there should be an option to let players who were banned join ur server, and if they are still that bad, you can always just ban them
Not sure how VAC is related here?
I mean VAC-banned players are just allowed to join all non-VAC protected servers so it's not really a separate option from VAC
Then try to view online mode servers as vac enabled
exactly this aurora ๐
And funfact you can still report people on vac disabled servers
I mean I'm pretty sure non-VAC protected servers still have authentication... offline servers don't
that's the difference here ๐
but it's a problem of the offline-server-provider ๐
Now you only get multiplayer banned and not your account disabled when you groom children or threaten to shoot up a school
No that's reality right now
I mean yeah sure the categories are a lot more reasonable now
is it?
Again, reports have always been possible, just less secure, less verifiably, and with way more hassles
what would be considered a dex-based skill in Minecraft
I just wonder how many people will actually know that they are reasonable and not just have their information from the viral moment when everybody went "wtf" over the initial version
- The major people complaining about this are also shouting slurs at people who disagree, so, you know
I just don't trust Microsoft
- Shamefully, like any company, their communication sucks, even if in some respect they geeenerally do a better job than many others, they still suck
Which we do tell them regularly
- to my understanding, stuff is still moving, they're still listening to feedback; people would do a much better job trying to address their concerns in the places they've pointed people to without the hot headedness
I mean I don't think many people would actually support the initial version... idk if I'm the crazy guy that both doesn't shout slurs and doesn't think the initial version was reasonable but I personally would expect many people to complain about it not knowing about the changes
Reports != Bans
I mean, I'm not 100% on board with what they're doing
We've been speaking to mojang about this to try to find reasonable ground given that mojang has to do something for various dozen reasons, i.e. this stuff is being expected of companies around the world by legislators
I mean personally I saw the initial version as particularly egregious because "profanity" was a category which then implied that you could get banned for saying shit
ofc now this is removed but I think that's a reasonable opinion
I don't think so
We only stand for much of a voice, however; and this flipping the table over doesn't allow for any form of wiggle room onanything, as you can't really talk and discuss stuff if you're just flipping the table
(Also, wasn't fitmc part of the many groups intentionally tryna harass servers over the p2w stuff?)
i don't feel like it's necessary to ban people from playing lan or something though
LoL for example has a report category for "negative attitude". You don't get banned for it, but people can still report you for it and after a while you get popups telling you to calm down
Yeah that name sounds very familiar
Isn't alcohol on the list for reports or is that removed or got more clarification
Because like aren't there alcohol plugins (Brewery, ...)
yeah I just went off the first result I found when searching for "minecraft report system"
got more clarification
ah
in dota they just disable your coms lol
it's sad that the community has to speak out to Microsoft so much to make them agree on something
It's basically just don't try to convince people to do illegal acts with alcohol
no chatting, or vc
or at least for info
ah no, we just have pubs with brewery
I mean noting the report system is still being worked on, this is kinda expected since they're looking for feedback.
If you don't do that then you're fine
tbh I have to wonder what the drugs stuff means exactly
The description for the โDrugs and alcoholโ category has been updated to โSomeone is encouraging others to partake in illegal drug related activities or encouraging underage drinkingโ
like they talk about "illegal drugs" but does that mean you can talk about consuming weed if you happen to be located in Canada ? 
what if your servers theme is cops and robbers and the robbers are planning a drug heist? 
I think that mosttly really refers to encouraging minors to drink
Just don't encourage minors to drink and you're fine
same
It's too nuanced for mojang to be able to do it right
Enforcing that is practically impossible with how many different rules there are
you live in gambia ?
and at the level people are invested into minecraft
Belgium
They have always been allowed
oh i didn't see lol
god how often do i have to repeat myself
Yes, but now they're accessible in-game
2b2t is not a clear server
wow in Germany you can drink beer and wine at 14 in public lmao
69 more times plz โค๏ธ
And even the 16 here is buying or consuming in public, there is no law on consuming in private
And one issue that I see is that context won't be passed over
not even true
its 16
I wouldn't be surprised if people "ban-bait" people
Ask them to write something, they're dumb kids, they do
and they get banned
They literally said more context was added to the reports
should be impossible due to context
Please actually read the updates
However this age limit drops down to 14 if a minor is accompanied by a parent or legal guardian
oops didn't read the fine print
i saw the "14" and not the asterisk 
Does context take non-chat input?
eg: what the user gets shown on a sign
Server IP yes
or in a book?
isn't it 16 in belgium to buy alcohol
no
Well, that's what happens
Kids give you a book "Write this incantation (slurs in foreign language) to get whatever"
people do
People won't get banned for a single small offense
eh idk, i think you have to be 16 to consume alcohol in public
ah could be, i googled it once out of Interest
Do they have some guidelines on what their system will be?
but if someone buys it for you and you drink it at home thats your issue really
Because I think some phrases regarding to self-harm or hate will get insta banned
so many people drink it <16 at festivals though
also there is nothing about slurs in general in the new report reasons, just Harassment and bullying or hate speech which is a bit more extreme than slurs
Yeah, most countries deny purchase, not consumption
yeah, they dont really care
You can have racial slurs which go under hate speech
most even serve to underage at parties haha
Casual reminder that the drinking age in the UK for private places is 5
lmao
seems reasonable
Also, what happens if they're using on-click messages
gotta get that root beer for growing
I mean most countries just don't have a drinking age at all if you're in private
Eg: You have a sign, right click here for whatever
and then your client starts spewing some racist slurs about killing inferior races or whatever
insta ban
With the large spectrum of people in this game
it will happen
> places a sign โtype in chat text from this bookโ
> person types that
> report them
> they get banned because this wasn't in context
we do a little trolling
I think those can't happen without a / being there anymore
/msg ezz
although idk if it indicates what you're going to write
I'm saving my critiques of the system until it's fully implemented and in a proper release version ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I just see this very difficult to handle, I guess mojang got forced by their PR team
idk just seems stupid that they want to enforce shit like that, just do it on realms and leave us out of it
But it's going to be a major effort for small results in my opinion
People that want to bend the rules always will
I'm pretty sure here it's illegal to buy drinks if you're underage but if someone who can buy one gives you one in a private place it's okay
here being turkey
eeyup:
here being most places
Well, purchasing drnks and chugging in private is two seperate things
legal age for purchase in the UK is 16 with a meal or 18
doesn't seem to let people exactly what they're about to send though which I'd say is obviously the real problem...
since that'd mean you'd now have to be paranoid of triggering any command ever
This is going to be very complicated
in the netherlands, buying something for someone else who is below the drinking age is illegal, but I doubt that can be enforced in any way
whats the age to get stoned?
And if there's a way for the client to say "this was an automated message the server told me to send" (for example if /say is supposed to be an indicator of this) then that's gonna obviously be abused by people who want to avoid reports on require-secure-profiles servers
anyhow it's really unenforcable and I have a feeling this will be smth like p2w servers which mojang doesn't do anything about until the last second
they can't handle support emails (2 month+ long queue last time I contacted them) how would they handle chat reports?
just talk shit from discords that are bridged
18, the law is really weird, its technically still illegal but tolerated in certain circumstances or something

They had so much better ways of dealing with this, like a filter for chat messages
But not outright banning multyplayer
the first time I contacted them I waited for 4 months then they sent me links to useless FAQ pages and stopped responding to replies under that support email
guys what a f is going on with Microsoft
This system breaks many private server functions, like plugins, so it is doubtful that most servers will use it aside from vanilla or plugin-light servers.
- Hypixel staff
I guess that's gonna make this much less likely then...
not like roblox tho
roblox' filters are bad
Plugins will update?
roblox isn't a good company either
I'm never updating my server to 1.19.x
Cool, nobody cares
cool, then you won't get any support here in the future^^
Thinking 1.19 and lower will save you from reports 
That's gonna be painful...
I sense the old report system will still exist in some way
the idea of having a whitelist for underage (13-) and a blacklist for not underage (13+) is actually not bad if executed well
Of course
ofc lol
Cool, but you still cared to respond ๐
Lots of (bad) chat plugins send system messages, so I see the point
Yeah then staying on an outdated version because "you can't be reported" is dumb 
System messages can't be sent at all on a require-secure-profiles server ??
anyhow I hope they fix this and the P2W report google form thing cuz that's stupid and just hire more support email employees cuz queue times are too long
So the responsibility of how people speak on my server is being stripped from me?
no, they work just fine
but they can't be reported
their commercial usage reports team is pretty good
it's just that a lot of people don't really read the commercial usage guidelines and just report servers anyway
There's plenty of ways to do that, provide server admins the ability to "suggest" messages
There's so much things that can be done to do this properly, but not a report from the players
Because what will happen is bullying
Children are easily influenced by others, and while platforms like Discord have the full context because their system allows it, Minecraft won't
So some kid may be "dared" to say something in some foreign language, or be cussed in non-verified avenues
Abuse of the system will happen. Iโd prefer if I could opt my server out of it, even if that meant kids couldnโt join it.
to get their account baned
idk I never saw a clearly P2W server get banned other than one popular example that I forgot
This topic is boring, this system is coming, there is nothing you can do about that, only thing you can do is constructive feedback to improve the system
Mojang allows non-competitive perks, like /fly, /kits, etc, as long as they don't give a direct advantage
because P2W is not always against the rules
time to sell my account and switch to cracked version 
I said clearly P2W, I'm aware, but in that case those are clear advantages
the bans could be very easily bypassed for some time (until 1.16?) with SRV records
But allowed by the EULA nonetheless. They blocked P2W, but they don't block perks on servers with no clear purpose
Like Survival
mojangs thing is generally slow and much is going on, I've seen people screaming about P2W on servers which really aren't, but, I mean, that gets objective and mojang doesn't always agree with randomers on the internet
Yeah, P2W drama has become a way to justify griefing, cheating, etc
In many cases in my opinion
I feel like their enforcement has helped though, there were a lot more servers with really bad pay2win before the changes
While the people that did have predatory practices are rarely noticed
e.g. 2014 vs now
does being able to buy ranks that give you highly enchanted gear that is otherwise unobtainable in a pvp game mode where that is clearly an advantage count?
There is a server I won't name that sells limited edition cosmetics that they kind of brand as a potential investment on the long term. It's not giving any advantage but the "potential of growdth"
Well, cosmetics are fine
limited edition, investment or whatever does not matter
and "This will be worth 100x"
as said, mojang is slow, depends on the nature of the gear, etc, theres many aspects involved
mojang gets thousands of reports a day, they have to prioritise, etc, etc
their support email team is great other than that they are too small, people there are really trained and they know what they need to know, and get things fixed quickly once they actually respond which takes months
so all they need is more people, the existing people are trained well
Didn't they offsource the EULA commercial compliance work?
All the times I've contacted support they've been fast. I usually get a resolution within a week.
Also tbh I gotta say that I'm still worried to some degree because "just trust Microsoft to have good moderation staff" isn't exactly something I'd bet much on
Yes, definetly not ideal, maybe if they had some intermediary update to test the waters before going straight to bans
that would be better
Or allowing servers to have different PG options
I don't agree with their approach, but I can live with the current system
idk I contacted them three times, the first took 4 months, the second one got a response like 6 months later but that was okay cuz apparently they were moving their email and I contacted them at just the wrong time to go unnoticed, and the third time took like 6-7 weeks
at the end of the day, you're running under mojangs platform using mojang services with mojangs branding on it
Risks of running anything on somebody else's platform
this could also be that account support takes more time
like many other dozen companies in such a state they're being expected to add systems in place or face being reguluated to all shit
(This is literally why companies like facebook, twitter, etc all ASK to be regulated by the US government)
Yeah, I agree with you, I think this was more of a mandated change than their intention
I just feel that censorship or harsh punitive measures are not the solution
At the end of the day it seems logical to consider Minecraft special in the sense that it's one of the few games with fully-independant servers
either companies take their own steps into doing stuff or government entities come along and force something likely harder on them
In the end, I think it's a wait and see game
They probabbly know they're stepping on loose grounds and will take this slow.
Server owners maintain hardware, network and everything needed to get the servers running and the sole and only role Mojang plays in all of that is to certify that someone owns Minecraft
As much as some hate Mojang, they're a pretty responsible and ethical company.
server owners also have a license to use mojangs property under the license that they agreed to and the stipulations within
This definitely feels like an overstep on Microsoftโs part
I mean sure, but not many people are gonna feel good about any perceived encroachment on Mojang's part upon fully independent server owners
The way it works it's essentially just Mojang pretending a banned player doesn't own Minecraft...
well, they made the game 
Yes, to be honest I think it's a bit strange they ban all multyplayer
that seems rather important
They're not fully independent is the literal point
Because it's a part of the game they do advertise as providing
and they're selling you a license, not renting you one
They rely on the license that they have with mojang allowing them to use it within the stipulations
A license which they can revoke at any time without any reason
So from a juridic standpoint, not sure if what they do'll hold in some jurisdictions
Can they though?
yes
yes
Yes
For playing or servers?
Anything
pretty much everyone has terms for that in their license agreement
and you agreed to that when buying the game
They can, legally speaking, straight up disable your account
Issue here is that there are multiple jurisdictions and countries that mojang sells towards, and each have their own laws
For example in Romania, disabling a paid application license without reason wouldn't be allowed
they have Microsofts lawyers behind them, im pretty sure that its 100% legally sound
technically Microsoft could also decide you don't get to use Windows because they don't like you
Well they have a reason^^
There's a difference between legally sound and acceptable due to risk
They can't. Anti-Monopoly law
the result is the same though
There are certain rules and regs all around the world but theres generally an allowance for tearing a license up if a party violates it
If a company decides to not follow a countries laws then they donโt get to do business in said country anymore
When you hold a product that makes it's own ecosystem, such as Microsoft, you can't go ahead and ban people from using your OS because "I want so"
Ah, of course, you violate something you're out
I mean, you can try to go to court against them, but considering the worth of the product is just 25โฌ, there is a good chance it will be dismissed instantly because its too minor
But most countries have consumer laws protecting abusive contractual clauses
that's not an abusive contract clause lol
Small claims court
Are we talking about going to court over getting banned in a game where community members report someone?
I can remove your license to my product, that you may or may not rely on for whatever, whenever I want, if i want, and for what reason (or none) i want
is abusive
anyway I started ranting on twitter as well because y'all made me too https://twitter.com/aurora_smiles_/status/1540309676713205760
maybe, but legal
for example there are educational institutions using Minecraft for their educational projects
You are breaking the license by not following the community standards
They have a reason
Obviously microsoft can ban some uses, but not all of them, and especially with most countries
legality varies around the world, generally you can't tear a license up just because
You can't "change your terms" when you want whenever yu want
but, violating the agreement is generally a valid reason to tear up a virtual piece of paper
It's pretty simple, if you dont agree to their updated terms, you're free as within your right to not agree and stop using their services/products.
Yeah, for commercial they have legal grounds
Nope, you paid for a lifetime license
Agreeing to it, means you simply agree. And life goes on.
So it doesn't go like that
There are specific rules and such for changing the license
Yeah kinda does, ๐
last time they changed it they added a eula.txt file
the license changes, you agree, you're free to not agree anymore.
Yes, agreed, but they're still bound by the old agreement
no
Which if it doesn't have a set time limit, is forever
Discussing 'going to court' over this is just showing how rediculous the conversation is in the first place.
ok saul goodman
because the old agreement surely includes a part about updating the agreement
It's not, it's a matter of principle, censorship, and monopolistic practices
Mojang is fine, they're not overstepping
โcensorshipโ
lol
Hey, floris
but in general, the world doesn't work in the way that you're allowed to do whatever you want because you're a multi-billion dollar corporation
svrew you
Yes, so please explain why do I not get my 5% interest on my old savings account anymore?
I'll see you in court.
oh yeah, totally ๐
Depends on terms the bank, national law, central bank regulations
If they said that the 5% is a promotion that holds for 1 year after opening an account, obviously after that you're out
Or if they say that they hold the right to notify you 3 months in advance that they're stopping to provide that
many banks over here stopped giving interest rates on accounts cos of some weird law changes
Please name one example where you still get your interest rates from 10 20 years ago and the bank is not legally able to change it, because I have not found one
There isn't one.
Look at central banks and banks' deposits
Although generally terms aren't made to allow you to have the same interest rate for a long time, since it's not profitable
same with the mojang terms
Banks aren't stupid, at least if they want to make money.
I don't think its fair, and I agree with your criticism of monopolys, but sadly thats how the world currently works
Hear me out, everybody that's crying over this beyond reasonable discussion; gang up! start a class action suit out of principle and get a judge to agree. I mean, if you're right, you're right!
shocking, I know
In law, there's a difference between what is legal, what presents low risk of litigation, what is good for business to do to scare people away, and what isn't
Everybody else, let's just enjoy some Minecraft ๐
Beer has been aquired
MiniBoat
that's smoll
itt: german drinks beer, channel shocked
I mean that's not what's meant here... ofc legally they can pretty much do anything but if, say, they started charging servers for the privilege of running a server people would shit on them with good reason despite them legally having the right to do so
(note: I'm not saying this is equivalent at all to the current chat report situation, just that it inherently puts anything perceived as Mojang taking advantage of their position in a bad light)
mmm beer
1L of Weiรbier would be better
well, either mojang works on it or places like the US gov, etc, start writing legislation on it
I think Mojang should double down and require everybody to use dns1.multiplayer.mojang.com and dns2.multiplayer.mojang.com !! haha
whom would you rather deal with, mojang or the EU?
having democratic institutions deal with it is certainly better than some company
but they are slow, so until they do, Mojang it is
I mean I'm not as enthusiastic as Stefatorus over here but I gotta say I'm not exactly going to hop on the "do rash things to avoid the government doing so" train anytime soon
casual reminder, article 13
Discord has this block feature, and i just falsly blocked you .. out of principle i think you should cause some fuss over that to discord. because you probably signed up before they had the block feature - anyway, ..
GDPR is honestly great in my opinion. I want to know where my data goes, and do want the right to know what others hold on me.
that was a lot drama for very little impact in the end tbh
because the implicated clauses where neatened out iirc
Oh, new episode of for all mankind, bbl
they originally worded it in a manner which would pretty much kill memes iirc
No, that was article 13
hey , im facing a problem in my bungee cord server where all users have same ip so when i ip ban someone every one gets banned
and yes and made sure that ip forwording is true and in spigot setings and i sat my server ip to 127.0.0.1
extra info : im runing my server on ubuntu
GDPR also came under the ame article maybe?
no
it was a completely separate thing
Ah
nope, also Article 13 was part of a directive, the GDPR is a regulation
Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market
asked here already but never reacted to Malfador
Yeah, that was indeed contested and for good grounds I believe
does anyone know where I can find paying plugin requests? kinda like the one in spigot forums but for more options
but yea, part of the joys of gov entities regulating on stuff is that they generally a mixture of having 0 clues of wtf they're regulating and often work with large corpos
i didnt see any respond
mc-market, but anything minecraft money related is very high risk
so take care
Which is why companies like facebook WANT regulation for this stuff as it lets them make something which benefits them
in US yes, in EU less
is it against tos or sth?
No, but people scam and overstate their abilities
Most people passionate about the game are between 7 and 18, the average developers you find online are 14-15
well yeah
I'm calling it now btw, Mojang will be forced to introduce some sort of privacy tools as well in the future because similar to the current situation most server owners don't follow local regulations
I'm the dev tho
casual reminder that most of the people whom are writing regulations on this stuff left school as the BBC computers where hype
I'm just looking to make some money while also studying CS
That's fine, as long as there's a law around it I'd be happy. I like the idea of having global punishments, if done right
Spigot forums are a good place imo
directives just tell the EU members that they should work on laws that follow the directive, with quite a lot of leeway, while regulations like the GDPR are real laws. So all the drama about Article 13 was also a bit too early
well, good is relative
do you know any other too?
There's bucket of crabs
for hiring people for the long term
There's help-chat and other discords that provide "requesting-paid" ads
Several "service teams" that hire kids to do comissions, there's plenty of things
It depends on what you want (hobby, server for small audiences, large project), and what your budget is
spigot, MCM, fiver, etc, etc
because each has it's pros and cons
tf is bucket of crabs lol
place where marketplace teams hire
Theres many dozen places, as said, many of them you really need to be weary of whom you're hiring
I want to be hired
Depends on what you're offering, etc
the market places is generally a competition to the bottom
minecraft servers have become so professional lol
Some people juggle 20k+ eur monthly
so yeah, they did
Not sure how of a good idea it is that the game has turned so commercial, especially since java is barely regulated for unfair practices
more like it hasn't even come into effect yet
And I feel that places young individuals spend a lot of time on hold a large influence on their development
23 countries still haven't passed laws for it so they've in a legal battle with the EU over it rn
And unfortunately I've seen too many people abuse that for their self benefit
Technically EU law is law in the EU countries too
this is a directive not a law
article 13
article 13
oh wait no the ECJ has ruled on article 13 recently
The Court acknowledged that Article 17โs [(yes they added more articles before the directive passed)] obligation to review content constitutes a de facto requirement to use automatic recognition and filtering tools, and held that such mechanisms would indeed constitute an interference with usersโ freedom of expression rights
Well, one part of the article falls
the court side-stepped the most pressing issue though yeah
Which one?
whether an automated system that can "distinguish adequately between unlawful content and lawful content" is even a thing that can exist
if it can't then the article can't be enforced since an inadequate filter would violate the obligation to ensure availability of lawful uploads
That's very difficult to decide in a court of law
yeah ofc
Because it depends on technical aspects that may change in time
Also they noted that "Platform providers cannot be forced to 'generally monitor' user content to check the legality of content"
stuff like that is why large corpo's wanted a hand in the US gov creating this stuff
Without knowing the context, the excerpt you gave shows their concern: that having to review individuals with automatic tools can hinder freedom of expression
These companies have long been working on tools to do such stuff and have automated some stuff already
Really kills upstarting competition if you legally require competators to have tech you've been working on for 10 years on their platforms
The issue I see with countries allowing companies to take part in affairs more than giving professional opinions is that it pushes regulation towards their own self interest. Look at right to repair and how much Apple/ John Deere was against it until the last moment. Not to mention standardizing the chargers for phones
ight i've seen the newest rules from Minecraft and i'm not that against it anymore
well, RTR is a fun one
just looks like it needed feedback
They where against it, and still are
tractor repair cost is insane
Much of their conceeding right now is tryna show "but, we don't need gov to step in!"
farmers already struggle with money and other restrictions
Like, even with apples repair program, if you wanna replace a screen you gotta end up on a call to them to get the phone reprogrammed OTA
Exactly the issue why companies shouldn't have regulatory power, either through paid influence (Lobbying), or direct ability to ask specific regulations to be removed
isn't apple repair with fixit now?
which is still expensive but less expensive (and way better for the environment)
afaik no?
oh
i thought fixit became an official repair thing for apple
Like, you can defo get it cheaper/faster outside of their services, but, you're not paying much for it outside of that
I mean, many companies act as authrorised service centres for repair
Take another european initiative, forcing all mobile devices to use USB Type C
yeah i mean that apple allows ifixit to do it
Electroniccat are paper devs working on a new build for 1.19, or are the initial builds the final ones
hey , im facing a problem in my bungee cord server where all users have same ip so when i ip ban someone every one gets banned
and yes and made sure that ip forwording is true and in spigot setings and i sat my server ip to 127.0.0.1
extra info : im runing my server on ubuntu
I mean, we're always working on new builds, theres like 100 different builds for 1.18.2
maybe they're all alts
bungee-mode: true, in the spigot.yml
ah
if you read i said that i did
and forwarding to true in bungee
Generally, check network setup, most cases of people having the wrong IP is failure to configure the proxy up properly or using another proxy which mangles stuff
how are people connecting to the server, with the IP which directly points to the bungee server?
i use ubuntu what can i do about network
Ah alright, cus this smp im on is having crazy lag problems on 1.19 due to entities (128gb server ram with about 30 players online)
bungeecord to true (spigot.yml)
ip_forward: true (bungee config)
and restart both
It should fix your issues if it is from minecraft and not something else
thanks for youre help but ive already did these steps
Can you explain how your network works?
Do people connect through a proxy (haproxy, nginx, etc)
all the players joning joins with the server ip
new builds won't magically fix performance issues, #paper-help and provide timings, etc
hmmm idk what are thesse
bungee logs?
Alright thanks ill ask a server admin to come around
what are haproxy ?
it's. aproxy for load balancing, etc
if you don't know what it is you're probably not using it
yes im not using it
are you using a 3rd party DDoS service or something?
Do you use anything to protect against DDOS (TCPShield, GRE tunnel, etc)?
no basic ubuntu firewall
how are you hosting the server?
My first suggestion would be giving the logs, we check those
localhost ubuntu server
They should hint to what the issue is
If you're hosting locally, your own IP will be 127.0.0.1
Others should have other IPs though
no i have done port forwording and everything is working and the server is opened for public
logs?
sure which part of logs do yo uneed ?
Where people connect, and plugins you may have
on both the server, and bungee
so we can see the whole flow
also, if you can send us configs for bungee, and spigot.yml
that'd be great, we can check those too
ok sure

yes for cracked mc
That doesn't affect it

great. See our community guidelines.
ok its for testing not for cracked mc
did you find anything wrong ?
No, we need the logs
fine where exactly in the log ?
dude, you literally just admitted to using offline mode for non legitimate uses. At least try if you don't want to get kicked
This person has got to be trolling lol

When a new version of Minecraft releases, is applying the patches more of just slightly modifying them to work with the new version, or do you have to rewrite a lot of them from scratch?
so many emojis on the embed description i thought you were sharing a piracy website 
theres some which may need to be rewritten, etc
@warm anchor 
No!
Exchange for beer
Naw eternity needs to explain why the anime girl from their profile pic randomly shows up in random places on my phone
the weebness has infested your phone
||it's like gono but fun||
no
I mean, I've talked about much of the concepts before but they often fall into the same set of issues
the master server concept seems like a bit of a single point of failure
You're pretty much always gonna have a single point of failure with this stuff
Unless you're getting deeper into the stuff I've talked about, it's generally a mess
Like, really, what you wanna do, is just rip out vanillas chunk system and replace it with something which is like, designed for instancing
ok I refunded it it's shit lol
ofc, that involves a muuuuch more involved tech stack
Lmao
Like, you're gonna need a single source of truth for world gen cos that's not 100% determinate, so you'd have horrible chunk gen if you didn't, unless you rewrote that
to be fair I never played one of the Miku games yet but idk like usually with things like muse dash or osu you hit the thingies based of the melody but in that game it was more based on the voice??? super weird
So you sung???
Yeah I'm not doing that
nooo not singing
but like instead of hitting the buttons to the beat or the melody it was like hitting the buttons on the lyrics
I mean, if they're doing it remotely sanely, yes
Better than actually singing shivers
The biggest issue for these projects is the biggest reason why they're viable
I've written much stuff about this over the years in public channels
Take a look at literally every single "start from scratch" server impl, they have the exact same issues
if you're not willing to rewrite the chunk generation logic, you're pretty much gonna be bound to the single server doing gen stuff
Which is my point.
Downfall of not rewriting chunk gen, is that you're bound to a single server doing that, which leaves a core issue: vanilla chunk gen is slow as balls
It's a pretty large barrier to scalability
Yes, you're offloading everything else, but you're still leaving one of the biggest issues in play
It is, but chunk gen is still slow as balls
that doesn't happen, basically
chunk gen is still mostly single threaded as solving that issue is somewhat complex
Because mojang doesn't care about this
feature generation in general is fairly random iirc
Chunk gen has never been 100% deterministic, noise is due to how the algo works, etc
It's just not something anybody ever cared about, and in itself is somewhat nuanced as chunk borders are arse
that makes 0 sense
not something mojang cares about and now you're eating more CPU cycles
the chunk system is also fairly complex which creates its own set of fun issues
The chunk system being complex in some aspects is why it's nice
Just wish it didn't seem as overengineered as it is
I mean, the chunk system has always been relatively complex, just much of it was hidden away and relied upon discarding stuff it didn't care about as much
then they got to the point where they did start storing that info, paper however did discard it at that point as it didn't make too much sense to keep it at that point
Then they added the entire ticketing system was was a blessing and a curse
that ticketing system is what allowed us to implement the simulated view distance logic
(which mojang then added to vanilla)
50 players is weak
generally, check timings, etc
look into spark reports, etc
I mean, entities do kinda suck
but, entities have always been a fairly heavy hit on servers, most of taming them comes down to sane settings, etc
Well, yea, entities suck in general
villagers fucking butcher servers
Villagers are a lot more complex so yeah
villagers have much complex logic
Like, really what you'd wanna do is invest the effort into just stripping them down
But, ofc, theres so many behaviors of villagers that people rely on that it creates its own headache
Well, redstone is easy
Like, relatively, redstone sucked donkey and did lots of stupid needless updates
that's pretty much all of what the rewrites do
(and why they're so breaky without "hax")
You can slow them down already on paper
Like, the entire redstone improvements is to 1) improve the way that redstone "paths", 2) reduce the number of useless updates that they do
- is the breaky point, however
But like cat said even then it is still going to break certain expectation your player have of how they behave
those mods have to restore some level of pointless updates in order to keep vanilla mechanics working
Tick-rate in paper-world-defaults.yml you can slow down thier aquirepoi
@viral hornet 
Entity rewrite would be nice but idk if anyone would want choice pain and suffering doing it
and yea, villagers not having POIs around will hurt
Once they find a POI they shouldn't be searching for them
Unfortunate that the villager optimization PRs kind of died down
only PR I see hasn't been maintained and afaik much of it was replaced by other stuff in the server which optimises much more
Can searching be rate limited?

Well, that may solve it, if you have a max of 20 searches in 5 minutes
Well, it doesn't work like that
it's basically a bunch of tasks which run every tick for the most part by default
Is it how often in ticks to run the behavior?
yes
Ah
and ofc, those things can have wider implications on farms, etc, is part of the joyous issue
I know, but I think with the large amount of behavior
players rarely understand the mechanics in play too much which also creates its own set of issues
Some of it can be removed without players noticing
issue in part is that these entities are just stupidly complex and really, somebody just needs to disable their AI and write a plugin which aims to implement the minimal stuff people care about
To be honest it depends much on the server's gameplay and expectancies players have
Lag is a feature for 2b2t, for example
Modularity, maybe just have a plugin to modify behavior to allow tuning each mob by type
Shouldn't be too hard, unsure about if it needs reflection and how many people want it backwards compatible with ancient versions
Did paper implement anything to simplify fiddling with entity behavior?
Theres a WIP thing but it's in this weird area of figuring out some stuff
idk if it covers behavior specifically, I know it touches the brain
eternity's first ban???
I ban a few from internal chat before
just the obv one
That guy also made a fess in MOSS discord before coming here so I recognize his name
@ripe sphinx can you believe this

Calling the act of supporting LGBT a political statement (he made comment on server logo)
He did that on other discord before coming here
everything in the world folder is important
playerdata = inventory & location
advancements = advancements
Zip the world folder will be the easiest solution
im gona assume its a size issue , or else he would just do that
Yes, I will zip it but before that wanted to make sure that a player is going to need every files/folder in order to run this world in his own pc
Those should work
then just zip it the entire folder
But if you have plugin that store their home location (home plugin) it gets tricky
As you will also need to give those away
@warm anchor I think some people come from non western countries, so I guess it's lack of knowledge or not understanding the western culture.
Isn't it better to find preventive measures than banning?
he could get the coords from the essentials file if he uses that
Nah, I don't want to share plugins. Just the world. Rest they should find their own home location or just tamper with other player builds ๐
They have an established channel for ban appeal and I listed the reason clearly so it should be fine 
this is not a place to educate people, they can use the internet for that if they want to
Yeah, I know
aurora, you can't stop me from educating people! but dont worry, im usually wrong anyway
hm, something new on apple tv+ lol, "loot", lets give it a glance.
Mojang made it onto trend, rn that's pretty impressive.
I mean, I do personally strive to push people intowards offering understanding, you can't dogpile on somebody and expect them to go research
