Post: RE: Ban Appeal

[Image: https://i.imgur.com/TLB13Ok.png] Yeah, no. This is some of the most obvious x-ray ever. Appeal denied, go directly to jail, do not pass GO, do not collect $200.

Post: RE: Server Reset YOUR SUGGESTIONS HERE

The resource worlds are typically meant to be "regenerating" loot, anyway. Restoring valuable drops every few days would definitely be quite OP.

So my question is, are we certain a server reset will actually help? The prevalent sentiment about 1.14 seemed to be that it was just a laggy mess overall for large multiplayer servers. Have there bee...
