It's very agitating for mods to have to wait for a person to lot allow them in order to help place water/lava. I think it would be easier to let mods have the power to place water/lava without the need for lot allowing.

They risk the possibility of being fired if they break server rules.

+1 for this because sometimes users can't seem to figure out the /allow command.

what if when all lots are made that all admins/mods are lot allowed so that there is no need for fuss or anything?
because I dont see any of our mod/admins griefing someone...

Yeah, if mods are allowed to place water/lava, they might as well be allowed to place everything else. Since they can grief with water/lava too....

I'm not so keen on doing this...

lol, throughout this discussion, people say 'mods', but at this moment in time thats just me D:

I don't understand the point of just being able to place water/lava only, thats kinda of strange, and with no ability to pick up if makes a mistake? However I am unclear why this idea is needed, mods shouldn't really come along and edit some peoples lots without permission from the owner to do so..

I'm here to help.. With the following exception:



@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.LOW)
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
    Player player = event.getPlayer();
    if (player.getName().equals("SGT_ADZ") {
        player.kickPlayer("Yeah... Nah!");
        return;
    }
}

Perhaps mods should be given other abilities though. This idea would have helped, but would open up another issue of why not allow them to place everything else? :P

If you don't trust them, don't make them a mod. I don't see why in any universe you wouldn't trust someone YOU PUT in that power.

The whole idea behind the lot protection is that somebody can't modify your lot without you knowing.

A looong time ago, we decided that it would be better to avoid conflicts to not allow mods to edit lots without permission.
We have had moderators in the past who went on a griefing spree.

Anyway that said we could add something to provide temp access to a lot?

Like /help <player> for the mod, where the player gets a question if you allow him. When accepted he gets access on the lot your on for a period of time?
