Being a Sandstone farmer myself, I have a pretty good idea of how much sandstone can be farmed by one individual. I've taken an inventory of the latest and greatest structures built with sandstone and the total world quantity of sandstone has increased far greater than normal McMMO double/triple drops would allow. In addition, LogBlock knows all and shows sandstone being mined repeatedly from the same locations.

I'm not going to name names, but consider yourself warned. If players continue to abuse McMMO's bug any further, I will shut it down and add an extra wing to the graveyard for the mass ban to follow.

Hope this isnt pointed at me. I get all my sandstone from land clearing. Mainly turning sand into sandstone.

Sibbit: The issue is with <someone> remining sandstone they placed, a lot. Aside from structural changes, I'd assume there's no reason for that. Of course sandstone still is produced from sand dug from OR, but apparently there is in fact bug-abuse going on. And it's easy to realize whether you could be suspect, either deliberately or by repeatedly restructuring. Whoever is suspect, I wouldn't know.

There is a similar exploitable bug available with stonebrick. I have noticed the sandstone one, but I figured it had to do with the introduction of the two new types of sandstone (before they were actually released). Generally, it was easy to tell if you got any duplicate sandstone back because it wouldn't mix with the non duplicated sandstone stack wise.

More often then not I would just kind of... Toss the false sandstone into a dark corner so it didn't mess up the look of my storage chests. 😛

Anywho, if anyone is duplicating items like that with the intent to farm, keep in mind you've just contributed to the devaluation of a resource. I don't approve of your actions, but my bank account thanks you for the savings!

Cheers,

Anthony Hughes

Fortunately, the good news is that I've fixed the mcMMO bug. At least it runs well on our test server. I'm awaiting to hear feedback from the developer. After that, well... you guys are going to become the guinea pigs that are going to stress test the fix 😛
