You must press Alt+f4 to activate your new ram

I could cross ref the new players with the ones in the ban list

Some threads/categories, you are not allowed to reply/post in (like ban appeals). Also, if you open the same thread in a new tab, it will invalidate your posting key, so don't open a post in more then one tab if you intend on posting in it.

ATM, I don't have the time to possibly read all of this, but I can address a few things.

@Kinkybobo Every player has sethome data. Players hiding or lying about the actual amount of diamonds they really have wouldnt be possible. Inventories can be cleared and any chests near their sethome can be found and sorted through by admins. How do you think admins already go about getting rid of illegally obtained diamonds of xrayers? It would be the exact same process. Players only options would be to hide their diamonds in a chest far and away somewhere, but even then, I know that crafty has the means to literally trace the steps of every single player on the server. Even in the incredibly unlikely event someone managed to succeed in hiding their wealth somehow, the richest players on the server would be willing to comply and these "stubborn few" wouldnt have that much wealth to disturb the new economy anyway. In the event that they did however, during this "conversion period" the amount of diamonds people have could be closely monitered somehow im sure. It would be a little like imposing martial law for a little while... but a radical and intrusive conversion is really the only feasible option.

SetHomes are stored in each player.dat, it's not exactly the easiest thing to look through to find cords. Players can convert diamonds into many different forms and hide them in many different places. Turning diamonds into blocks and then hiding them somewhere on the map without leaving the game would leave no traces that I could track. Trying to scan 120gb of world data is not easy, and neither is looking through 55k players. This idea, sadly, is not feasible.

When players join, they expect /sethome or something equivalent, changing that will confuse players

I have explained before but I will again, set home and tpa is what made this server successful, without it players would just leave. The entire reason I created this server was to create a set home system in vanilla minecraft

It is 100% custom

Well don't use a wrapper per say, more like an observer, it is a very complicated network of programs that provide information and stats to the main program that runs the server and combines all the helper programs

And yes I am trying to become more eula compliant.

I can't give game play changing items, like op eggs, the issue is that I gave away the shulker egg when it was useless, then mojang made it op, my hope of giving it this month was to level the playing field for new players, rather then only having 5-10 players with the spawners.
