On New Year’s Eve 2021, griefers got in again (see Griefers Return on New Year's Eve). kira, who hosted the server, said he would deal with it once he had checked for damage and “implement password system” 1.
On 1 January 2022 he did. He set a global authentication password through the server console 2, restarted the server, and rejoined it himself 3. The goal was that nobody could join under another player’s name, which was how the October and December griefers had got in. He warned prop on the night of 1 January about someone using his name.
The same restart brought a smaller improvement: kira added that the server now “has dynamic view distance” 4, which helped with the lag.
