Yeah, I am here. Just under my newer username, Flagimbarb was my old one but as you cannot change Minecraft names, it has unfortunately stuck.
Shame really that people have gone to the extent of taking things from chests, my shears mysteriously went missing yesterday (found them ironically in someone else's chest! No names though), honestly guys if you want something just ask, we all have forum accounts, we all have Skype/TeamSpeak. If you need to borrow or use something, just ask before you do it, just common courtesy you know.
Ender chests would be a great idea, maybe if Khevo was to spawn everyone an Ender Chest in their House and then one at the community house, everyone would be safe in the knowledge they can retrieve their valuables without someone pinching them, that way there is no need for tricky server side mods that everyone may have to mess about editing inside their client. All it would take is a chest full of Ender chests (that can be made with Khevo's op status) and we can put them wherever we want them to be, then if someone else opens them, only their stuff will be inside.
Cheers,
Dan.
