So, I've just started up a new server, and not very many people got on, yes, but, I left it on while I slept.

This is a very free server. You can do anything possible while in survival mode. Which means grief can happen.

I was griefed.

Now, I know how you people may say, woopdey fricken do. Who cares?

Me. Because I would like to shake this griefers hand!

No, seriously. I wake, rummage through my pantry, get on my computer, log in, and find that my windmil is burned up, my entire forge, gone, stuff stolen, my mob trap wasn't so much griefed, thankfully, and they made it look like it was never there, even making the landscape look real.

Then I wonder if this griefer got to the nearby NPC village. They did. I had a hard time figuring out from afar, because I couldn't see it.

Literally. Wasn't there. No cobble, no farmland, the caves dug, and the houses built on, everything, gone, and made to look like it never existed.

guys, gals, this is how you grief, the right way.

I congratulate whoever did this, because I'll admit, that was pretty fricken epic!

For it. I give the griefer a one time Major Grief pass, and even a free spot to build, should they want to.

Right now, I still don't know who did, but I have a list of names that I can go through to find out if this person really is the griefer.

For those of you who are wondering why I'm congratulating, even rewarding this grief, I do it because this person damn well deserves it. No, I'm not tryign to find him and ban him. If I wanted to, I'd've done it already.

I do not encourage anyone to try and grief this bad again after this. If you do, its ban hammer, no questions, no trial, no explanations.
