    We need to protect beacons on the server as when players with beacons trust a player who is not well known or the player has a bad reputation is /trust ed. This could be an example for players volunteering to build something for another and then goes and griefs them, steal from unprotected chests or stealing rares.
    I am cautious with who I trust but some players would not be trustworthy. I tried protecting my beacon at first with a sign bi put it didn't work, then I tried putting a trapdoor behind it, that wouldn't work either so there has to be a way to do this!

    Thanks,
    ~Shadoe

    If you don't trust the player, then don't /trust them. Problem solved.

    Support, island leaders should have more power than just /locking and /unlocking the island

    I thought there is a way to protect beacons. The only thing you can't protect is the blocks to power the beacons.

    Or are you talking as a whole tower?
    Then I'll have to support you

    I'm talking about the actual beacon its self. If you were to protect the blocks to power it, that would be a pain if you had to use the trapdoor sign method.

    Dosnt the server have lockette? Can't be hard to add beacons to lockable items with lockette. (Assuming its open source)

    The server currently has lockette but some items like doors can not be locketted due to a sign spacing bug/glitch.

    We should have /island ban (playername) to stop them from being there
