Technically, I'll still be able to help out if someone's in a real bind, but I'll have to ssh over to the server and execute commands from the console instead, which is enough trouble to completely dissuade the casual cheating we've been doing.

So, soon enough we'll have to be a little more protective and thrifty about our resources. Trees will be replanted, mines will go deep, and territorial battles will be waged. Maybe not so much the last one, but PvP is enabled!
But who will teleport me out of the caves when I get stuck?

Maybe I'll have to be more careful about what I take with me.

I was planning on doing some forestry and lumberjacking in the burnt area when the server reopens.

I think we need to institute some kind of "planning permission" process.
