I will, however, address the fact that on that very same day (January 9, for reference), after a successful /modreq, a quick, if not immediate, resolution had been assured to us once it was determined that the theft had actually been illegal. Of course, as it goes, this coincided with the release of vaults, and the handling moderator, Heero @Heero, was also responsible for the safe delivery of hundreds of vaults - for which we are rather grateful, though it did impede the solution of our issue. After waiting for weeks, as it also goes - we were informed that the issue went much deeper than a simple replenishment of our inventory. Heero told us that a restoration of that many Vortex items (remember, the plugin that had been promised to have no bearing on RP or staff capabilities?) required direct intervention and permission from a tech dev or an admin - these being Llir @Llir and Nicky @nickrocky213.

At this point, all communication with us ceased. While I must say that I certainly do not think less of Llir and Heero, whose contributions to the server I quite value otherwise, neither of them has, by this point, deigned to respond to my queries (Heero in a definitive manner, and Llir not at all, as my DM to him still lies unanswered). In contrast, we were able to actually initiate conversation with Nicky a week or so ago - who promptly informed us that he felt reluctant to give us back that many Vortex items, regardless of the fact that they had been illegally stolen, or that we've been waiting for a resolution for three months. In the end, he relented and agreed to at least partially resolve our issue, on the condition that Llir or Heero corroborate our story. This still hasn't happened.

It would be remiss of me to not mention that this ordeal has, naturally, killed any sort of desire in me to further interact with the Vortex plugin, at the cost of losing three months' worth of potential profits and stockpiles; it has made us unwilling to spend time on the server to begin with, especially should another issue arise and prove unsurmountable by requiring staff attention or Vortex tinkering. I'm uncertain whether at this point we'd be willing to accept any compromise solution, and the map change promises of streamlined mechanics and staff interactions leave a sour taste in my mouth. It saddens me that a forum post is necessary to bring this issue to light again; God knows that, though our issues are incomparable, many other players have had similar experiences with a lot more serious problems. If Vortex issues all require express permission from its creator to settle, then I believe the playerbase has been lied to in regards to its viability; yet, a deeper issue persists if players cannot trust the moderation to solve problems effectively. If the only option that remains to us is to quit in protest over this, then those in charge of player retention should certainly wonder if losing out on two veteran players over Vortex Iron™ is worth it.

Whenever I log on to do anything it wont let me unless I do ./auth. And It’s not working when i send a code

**Date of occurance**

**Error Message**
./auth not correct

Can’t @admin on discord because i need to verify my profile which requires me in game to do it.

Please can A dev remove auth on my account?

After testing the form saving, I came to the conclusion that there is probably a limit to the maximum size of the “Define Power-gaming in your own words” field.

When I filled in my initial text, it would result in the error.

But when I shortened the text it would save normally

 Looking at other fields, like player description, I can see that there is a limit in how many character you can type in the field.

I would advice checking the limit for the “Define Power-gaming in your own words” (most likely found in the database field it saves to),

and add the same kind of limit on the field as you did with the field mentioned above.

When one attempts to tame a horse, it refuses to allow you to open the inventory to place a saddle on the horse. After modreqing, Tigergiri informed me that it was probably due to Mob AI being reduced during the time that the server is under a HIGH load.

22:06 UTC

**In game specifications**
Server is under high load. It’s not just me as Tigergiri attempted it as well. We even tried to use a different horse which also didn’t work.

**Steps to Reproduce**

1. When server is under high load, find a horse.
2. Get on horse.
3. Spam the ‘e’ key repeatedly in an aggressive attempt to open your inventory.
4. Break all surroundings in frustration.

No response to inventory key.

I tried to find any mention of this on the forums, but couldn’t find the phrase Suspicious Stew appearing anywhere. If I’m being an idiot and missed it then please direct me to where it’s explained why it’s banned.

Thanks, hugs and kisses

I’m not sure as to what this could be; Never seen it before. My MC is using the correct version compatible with the server, and everything is updated accordingly. If someone could tell me what this means and where to go from here, that’d be swell. 

My second issue is that I know from when I tried to join a couple months back, that my 2FA from my time as a GM has me locked in the hub world, which I cannot escape due to my not remembering what service I used for my 2FA codes. If an Admin or Dev could reset my account, that’d be great. IGN is Cordial__.

I am unable to stay connected for more than a few seconds, but sometimes I’m able to play as normal. I have tried fresh installing, using vanilla minecraft and it doesn’t work.

I have tried everything, and this won’t fix itself. I tried using the troubleshooter to find more information, and got this.

A person in networking said “based on that small error it seems like the server is closing off your attempted connections.”

I’d like to know if this can be fixed or not, as I literally cannot play with this happening.

I did also have to have my mc name changed as it got hacked, if that helps any. My old name that I was a GM under was schizoTechie.

Cheers, lads,
Schizo.
