I'm trying to understand why people still use /list and /who, and then leave when the commands obviously don't work, when TAB has been here for over a year now.

I'm trying to understand the thought process of people who join, ask for help, ignore [Server] who offered help, and then leave.

It seems every time you tell some one to use tab the say they can't cuz they use a mac. I'm pretty sure macs have tab buttons but i see no reason they can't just set it to an other button if tab isn't working. As for people wanting help, I just let them say "help" and leave. I think they just want a list of commands. What do we have now any how? the list seems much shorter now. /kill /rules /me /tell is that it? are any commands for non-ops in the vanilla server?

i never knew about /coords. And thank goodness for /mute. I would always have to go into optifine's chat options and turn it off for all those persistent spammers.

Just happened again, I don't pay that much attention to console, but I see it happening at least 2-3 times a day.

What i don't get is people like "Google said this is a good server to grief" "this place is fucked up" log out. What the fuck do they expect to find when they go searching for a griefing server?
What the hell do we need a coord command for?

i agree, there really isn't a need for a coord command. You have f3 and/or rei's minimap. But hell, i'll use it once in a while i suppose. just because.

They probably ask if it is a greifing server, and ignore server admins because they want their actions to go unnoticed. The first guy, Gorilla, looked like he was attemtping to use /fly. I would assume that he was trying to hack and when he learned there was an admin online he just disconnected. He might come on later to see if he can hax.

^ seen that many times people will ask if there's an admin online and they'll be like 'oh no reason'

If i reply to them it's usually "Always" or "[Server] no" I try to give the impression that admins are around but have no interest in chatting with newbs.
