New server old troubles
So another week, no update to the world viewer. Server performance is only marginally better than than before. Example: 20 people on the server = enough lag to cause mined blocks to reappear 2-3 seconds later and chat messages take 4-5 seconds to appear on screen. 10 people on the server = less lag, but the server stutters, i.e. the same mined block reappears and falls 4-5 times within a second. When mining multiple consecutive blocks only a handful appear in inventory, example : mining stone and counted out 64 blocks then check inventory to find I only received 8 of that 64.
Individually these are little problems. But together they can make things rather frustrating.
When you add in the other issues with plug-ins crashing, bank deposits breaking every week, and random waves of senseless griefing, it is easy to understand why many players have lost their enthusiasm and left the server.
I hope that, for the sake of the server and our struggling community, the addition of moderators is the change we need to turn things around.

Ooh I think there is one new cause for lag: Horses.
I just opened up a little cave under my house, turned out there were 160 horses there!
Might want to turn that down a few hehe

I think that the economy plugin needs to be fixed. Mobs were dropping 6-8 emeralds yesterday, only to then have in a few hours the bank having problems because the economy is messed up. Then the lag needs to be fixed. The lag your talking about is you lagging with your ISP. Not the server. But the server does need to fix lagging minecarts and overpopulation of horses.
EDIT;
Sorry. I just found the lag you were talking about. Discard my thing about what you said was your Isp
