The 1.8 server will be opened again today, but it'll still be white-list only. However, due to the fact that some people decide to grief on the server, more securities will be implemented.

• In order to be white-listed, the users must present their Minecraft Usernames as well as their IP address they will use to connect.

• Proxy IP addresses are not allowed.

• Users MUST use the template provided (including the subject in the message) in order to be white-listed. Any variation will not be accepted and must be resubmitted.

• Only one Username may be added per request.

• Moderators have the final say in white-list request. White-list requests may be rejected at any point without reason, even after approval.

• Failure to present a valid IP address will result in an automatic rejection.

I don't want to do this, but my hand is being forced, and this is the only thing I can really do.
