I honestly just want to know. I got back on after not playing for a few weeks, and the servers hve seriously gone to crap. The deathmatch glitch is the main problem.

There are glitches due to 1.3.2 and 1.3 itself. It will hopefully get fixed and we're doing the best we can to keep it non glitchy. In 1.3.5 or something, things will hopefully be fixed.

I missed it though, a friend of mine told me.

I don't think you know how much work is put into the servers. Some things aren't a simple fix and they're doing what they can.

We have multiple server boxes in multiple locations to look after. Sometimes the people who manage the servers are busy and things may take longer. We ask you to bear with us and give us a chance to improve the servers as fast as we can. Any glitch's we have on the server are being experience by many other servers due to the problems in Bukkit and Minecraft itself.

The problems are coming from multiple sources, none of which are the Admins 'not trying.' Do you think we want the servers to be in bad shape? Of course not! I hope that I can explain some of what has been going on.

Because of the changes in 1.3, many of which affect a lot of how Minecraft works at its core, there are many new bugs that have devastating effects on servers, but we can't do anything about that. We have to wait for Mojang/Bukkit to update, then we have to wait for some of the administrative plugins to update, then we can update, but even then it takes hours to finish an update across a multiple location, seventy server network! These servers are located quite literally all around the world. Do you see how even simple bug fixes aren't a cakewalk?

On top of that, these servers have been DDOS'd multiple times, only making it even harder for the staff to keep things running smoothly! We have even had to move server hosts which is quite a lot of work. Try hosting a server group of this size sometime, it is not easy!

Unfortunately, we can do next to nothing about Mojang's bugs, jealous attackers, and poor server hosts. While the Dev Team is trying their best, they are human. They have their own personal lives, and, quite frankly, Minecraft should never be there number one concern! I hope you can see that running these servers has been over complicated by forces out of our control.

Understand that we're doing all we can to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. Some things just take time, so please have patience!
