Hey guys! Are you being annoyed and griefed? Are griefers spamming up your house with bedrock? Are they stealing stuff from your chests? Well here's my advice.

Here are some simple ways to prevent griefers and what they do. If you have any other problems, tell me in the comments.

Item Robbery: A griefer comes in, grabs an axe, and chops your chests, which makes the items to spill. They take your precious diamonds and you have to fight back with your remaining diamond. Go to a cave, find a clump of coal, place your chest in it, and your diamond in too. Cover the chest up in coal ore, and it is protected from griefers (they don't want coal anyway.) Also this repels the effect of the X-Ray mods, so then chests are safe and sound.

Tree Removal: A griefer grabs his axe and cuts down your forest, when you need wood to survive. Ways to prevent this: place TNT under sand under a pressure plate, and repeat this all around your trees so when a griefer wants to steal wood, he will fall in a TNT trap. Here's how to make: T=TNT S=Sand P=Pressure Plate

Lava Spam: A griefer takes some lava and floods your house. This can be deadly, so to avoid this, if you are watching the scene, make a button that drops water from the roof to convert the lava to obsidian. There is a percentage the griefer will suffocate in the obsidian, bad thing is obsidian is really hard to remove.

Destruction: Griefer's best friend. They destroy and dent your house, making it look ugly. A way to prevent this is using a bukkit protection plugin. Another way is if the griefers are on survival mode, you can have a pack of hostile wolves or tamed wolves, then they attack the griefers. Or, you can make houses out of bedrock.
