Well since the claims are about me I shall respond.
For a start as you are not affected by the claimed abuse it's actually not your place to make a report.
For a start I was joking about being in team eye but yes staff can be in factions that's completely allowed provided they do not breach any of the rules concerning coordinates, pvp and griefing. In fact most staff are members of factions mostly peaceful ones.
Second what I used was a levitation potion, this was a joke on Beedobi and I levitated them away from the area where adam and cephied where pvping for fun(As they are both members of the same faction).
Neither of them actually intended to kill Bee(Probably).
This was a bit of fun and their is nothing wrong with that nor did any of the parties have any complaints about it. Had any of them had any complaints we would have instantly stopped however we sometimes play with the helpers for fun.
Therefore this report is now being closed as it is false, please try in future to not jump to conclusions about staff.
While such a thing would be theoretically possible I think, given Crafties panel tracks players it's a bad idea for a number of reasons I think.
3 Hours is a long period, the server population can easily double or triple which combined with a large render distance could easily crash the server or make it unplayable. We would be compromising our up-time for possible but probably minimal play benefits.
The render distance last time I checked is set to 5 anyway.
Another thing to note is that mob spawning problems are often not to due to render distance issues although they certainly contribute but Mojangs shoddy implementation of mob caps and various other bugs contributing. Setting the render distance higher would not impact on spawning rates hugely.
For example when you log on in GMT afternoons where there tends to be 20 or less players the spawn rates tend to be very very good.
The VIP+ idea is pretty bad too since the times we have the most VIP's online is the busy periods where having a high render distance would impact on the performance dramatically, it could also potentially violate the EULA.
It is a nice idea however it's just the current level of restarts and Mojang bugs make it untenable.
I've don't think anyone else is having this issue, so it may be a networking problem with the connection between you and server/datacenter the server is hosted in.
The packets you are sending could be taking the long route round or there could be substantial packet loss on the route taken.
As for fixing it, Crafty may be able to help you depending on the issue and what it's causes are.
It could also be a visual glitch which is fairly common given that we can't see they are moving.
@Retrochewy The tp spawn thing also glitched, i pressed it and 2 seconds later, it tried to tp me, but i was already down 4 hearts with no way of getting back. Also I am not gonna log on until I am sure of a way to get out alive, if it fails I guess I have to sell my spare elytra... :( I had god gear god sword god pick (Fort 3) silktouch was in my echest god axe god shovel and infinity bow. RIP items
It's not glitched, you clearly just pressed it too late, the chances of you having the reaction speed to pull it out from the bottom of an island fall is very low.
Are you sure it was spawned in ?
I mean you do pvp a lot, so I don't think it's implausible one was dropped then ?

Which may be returned soon. Not in the priority list however. People seem to be quite obsessed with the farm when in reality it's a a fairly poor way to get xp an end farm is far faster and more effective. Its really not a core feature.
