Public Update #72

Book Usage
From talking and discussing with some players, some of whom already do this, but using books to communicate or spread information is a fancier way of doing things, but also better for history. Signing a book will also use your nickname, which is why I encourage this usage more. To note, signing a book with someone elses nickname/signature will be classed as powergaming. Your alter ego can have his own signature as you would be inventing it.
I encourage the use of using books to the other majority of players, as it provides an interesting dynamic on the server. Books can always be destroyed also. As a reminder, you can also use /postbox to send books to players.
Shulker Preview
We have re enabled the use of shulker preview. We wanted a way of this being fair, but decided it was better as a quality of life feature anyway. It is enable locked by default. To use, you can hover over a shulker and press the "TAB" key to preview what is in the shulker without placing it.
Sleep and Times
You may have noticed we also changed sleeping and day lengths/times. Now you will not be able to sleep every night, as you just won't need it, allowing for the night times to play out. Day and night lengths has also been changed, which also reflect on the seasons and time of the year, with nights being longer in the winter, and days being longer in the summer.
Pay Toggle
We added a simple command, /paytoggle. This will disable players from giving you money via /pay. If you bare many identities this may be useful.
Anonymous Mailing
You can now send mails, anonymously. You can do this by sending a temp mail, which can be done by /mail sendtemp (player) [time] (message)
For the time, you should do it by number followed by the letter of time length
For example, 12h would equal 12 hours
m=minute
h=hours
d=days
w=week
mo=month
y=year
Your mail will then appear anonymous, and will expire after said time.
Rule of Powergaming
Rule 20 was just added to /rules, which states more clearly that powergaming is of course not allowed. This is obvious, but very meaningful.
Skins/Identities Rule
On top of that, a rule 19 was added recently stating you cannot change your skin/identity too often. For example you cannot change your skin and face to a "John" and then change your skin and face to a "Bob" later. There must be some progression to this, and your characters face must remain. There are better more creative ways you can work around that.
This is the only way to keep the no more eyes system somewhat fair, and giving other players a fighting chance at doing anything against something like a thief etc.
Also to those who may still not check their combat tag, which is also displayed on a scoreboard now. Or those who instinctively disconnect very fast, you can enable "smart disconnect" in the lunar settings. Which will provide you with a prompt to say are you sure first.
The Black Sapphire is now open to the public. Offering jobs and more via /bs

(Make sure you enable smart animations to get the most fps in the sapphire, yes it lags in there. Check the guided help in /help)
