What is an HSP strategy?
HSP is HomeSpawnPlus, I believe. Not sure exacly what it does, however. >.<

Submitted a bug report, got this reply:
Probably going to get a similar response to the Ender Pearl report. Got a detailed, informative response, for which I am grateful. I apologize for the presumption.

Bed spawns and ender pearls are not going to be enabled anytime soon on the Team9000 Survival server. The potential abuse outweighs the benefits from an administrative standpoint (based on how the staff feels the game should work).
But that does not mean that your cries fall on unsympathetic ears. What if there were a number of portals in or near spawn (say around where the disused nether shop resides) that would transport players (either one or both ways) to high traffic or distant world areas (condo blocks / strategic map locations)? How would you, the players, feel about this proposed solution?
As for the chicken eggs; there is no way to control which chunks or areas they are can be thrown in. They are either on or off. And off they will remain.

The loss of Ender Pearl teleport is somewhat sad, as they were once used to get out of pits in areas people couldn't alter blocks in. Imagine coming back from a mining trip, inventory full of diamonds, only to fall into a 2 block deep hole near spawn with no way out. Yowch.
Personally, I would LOVE to see a teleport to the CondoBlocks area of the map. I constantly go to my condo to get supplies, and then back to the other side of the world where the towns I reside in are.
In the world prior, we had the GPS which teleported users to helpful areas on the map, mostly in cardinal locations away from spawn. This was incredibly helpful to get to towns that were far away from spawn.

If you had an inv full of diamonds, wouldn't you make them blocks? (Unless they're already blocks) o_o Also, if you're in a 2 block hole, you can use a block, aim down, jump and hold the right mouse button.

Dont think they are talking about teleporting on such great distance, but end effect can be this type of transport will lower the issues. With wilderness being protected for the first time, there are many pitfalls you cant fix in vicinity of towns/spawn, even in the said areas. And ender pearl was way to get out without admins presence.

It was a hypothetical situation.If you had an inv full of diamonds, wouldn't you make them blocks? (Unless they're already blocks) o_o Also, if you're in a 2 block hole, you can use a block, aim down, jump and hold the right mouse button.
No need to get in a tizzy about it. >_<Okay then, let's just say a "hole deep enough where you can't glitch yourself out".

A sign island and portal network would be EVEN BETTER than getting beds back. My condo and my 2 towns are almost literally at 3 of the 4 corners of the earth. >_<

Yeah, I've personally fallen into a hole that was impossible to glitch out of in the mining world. Thankfully, Gurw came and threw me an enderpearl and I was out. Perhaps there could be a way to enable an enderpearl throw, but only be able to be used every so often or so. Or, if it's not too involved, prevent enderpearls thrown by a player landing in a claimed area that they do not have permissions for. (not a safe zone or spawn)

I have a couple of ideas. Firstly, how about a thread dedicated to pointing out individual inescapable pits, their locations, and whoever may be trapped in them? That way admins could deal with them on a case-by-case (and permanent, by filling the pits in) basis. Secondly, maybe portals could be bought? The way I see it, if they were expensive enough then only the well-populated towns could afford them. Maybe a condition of getting a portal could be that the town agrees to keep a pathway from the portal to the outside of their town open (for public use).
If only there was some sort of tracking service for issues in the game that was easy to use and highly functional. You know sort of a general collection of errors that need administrative attention. That would be dreamy. bugs.team9000.net
If you submit the x,y,z of an administratively protected, inescapable, hole, I will fix it. I will not fix holes in other peoples towns or pretty much anything in the mining world. That being said I would like to encourage everyone to learn to block jump and to never leave home without a few dirt. This is survival: sometimes you die, sometimes you lose stuff; it is not supposed to be easy.
