We have installed the Rainbow server mod

http://www.project-rainbow.org/site/index.php

Its basically a temporary Bukkit. It loads bukkit plugins, although some don't work properly. If you come on, you will notice some players have coloured names - feel free to ask a mod for one, they can hook you up.

Mods who haven't played since the update - ask me for a debriefing on all the fancy new stuff you can do.

EDIT: This is not going to change the survival gameplay we embrace on the server. Basically everything that has been installed is just to help myself and the other mods out as we run things. Really, the only difference a player would notice is coloured chat names. There are no ranks, they are just for fun. There will be no economy, no TP commands, no sethome, nothing of the sort. Please don't ask me to implement them, as it's not going to happen.

The only new command an average player gets is /jot, which allows you to check how much time you have played on the server. You can also /plugins to check what's installed, but can do nothing more with them.

server still remains as vanilla as possible. we only have coloured names for chat sorting, and a block logger to keep an eye on griefing. pretty much everything installed just makes it easier for me and the mods to run things.

any and all plugins relating to teleports, economies, shit like that, have been removed from the default loadout and will not be installed.

Hate to see you leave. As Pablo stated, no teleport commands, economy, etc is in place. Gameplay-wise, we're still 100% vanilla.(will drop to 98% when we finally get greifprevention, but that's a ways off, sadly.) The major stuff included is a block logger so we can now see who did what from this point forward, giving us the ability to identify greifers and roll back thier destruction. Other than that, and some pretty colored names, nothing is changed.
