Wouldn't it be better to fix said exploit then leave it up to the trust of members or even guests?
Other servers don't have this problem, why not make it a non issue instead of making examples out of people?
In order for us to fix said exploits, we need to be aware of them.
We then rely on the playerbase, which actively plays the game in legitimate ways, to tell us about these exploits.
I personally spend my time building in creative mode. This makes it so I'm not too aware of issues outside of my "zone".
Therefore, I trust our members to tell us about these issues so we can avoid further abuse through fixing them. The nether portal bug was apparantly been evident since mid 1.4, which is rather shocking. Fairly few had told Mojang, who couldn't reproduce it and therefore didn't view it as a bug, but rather as a client-sided issue. Same goes for us. If noone tells us - we can't make sure to fix them.
Now that someone did inform us of the glitch, we managed to fix it - I hope.
We don't want to make it a non issue nor to deliberately make examples out of people. All of these incidents have been results of poor users who have decided to avoid informing higher-ups on the server about the issue, and rather use it to their own advantage. Because of their own decisions, they're being made examples of.
I'll try to end my novels here now, but I'm just asking people to please tell us about these bugs/glitches. That way noone has to be made a bad example of...
