Take the precaution to make your place fool proof and build some type of mechanism to keep people out or away from your place. If it looks easy to grief, then no doubt someone along the line that logs in randomly like Luke(something) and decides to grief the easy stuff. This is why I was always against building these elaborate CASTLES/HOUSES above ground. It's just inviting people to blow it up. Plus it's hard enough to maintain.

All that said, I understand people want to stop griefers and such, but there is nothing that can be done when people WANT to grief. Just deal with it and move on. Use youtube to your advantage and build traps, locks, and everything to prevent people from getting in. Learn how stupid people think and build a counter to it. That's what we do and it seems to work wonders around our area ^_^
Worst part is, we shouldn't HAVE to do that. We should be able to build with no worries.

But when people bring friends who bring friends, and things get out of control, then who are we supposed to blame? Ourselves?

No, that makes no sense.This server was for the community. Not everyones friends.

Christmas and I got griefed quite a bit. We have our castles built 50/50 wood and stone. We like the look. Someone sets fire to it.

How are we supposed to counter that from being griefed? Use all of our resources and build a stupid fucking wall?

Y'all are making excuses for your friends griefing.

That's what I'm tired of.
