Part One: All people who are ranked between raptor and mantis who grief or tunnel will be frozen and banned for their actions. Anyone from rank hawk to dragonfly who griefs or tunnels will be talked to, and if they do not have a legitimate case then they will be ranked down to locust for their actions. Anyone who is rank widow and up should not be griefing. Any other small rules (such as swearing at an op) will result in a mute, freeze, kick and then if they keep it up a ban.
Part Two: All bans are final. If someone does not agree with the ban they have received and they can somehow contact an op then they can explain their case. If their case is legitimate the person who banned them will stand trial. The person who banned them will keep their rank until their trial is over as they are innocent until proven guilty. There will be no more "abusing powers."
Part Three: Regarding ranking up, The system to get ranked up will be harder than before as so many people are ranking up and before you know it everyone will be op. To be ranked up now you will have to have a minimum amount of hours and an increasingly impressive build for each rank. It will look like this:
[list][*]locust: 0 hours
- mantis: 5 hours
- firefly: 10 hours
- hawk: 20 hours
- scorpion: 35 hours
- dragonfly: 50 hours + test
- widow: 100 hours (no build)
- Venom: 150 hours (no build)
- Condor: 200 hours + test (no build)
This will be more efficient as it will spread ranks out based on hours, not just builds. Builds will still be considered towards ranking as you should be spending those hours making it, but it will be hard to govern as it is a judgment call. Also, we will need to make a hard copy of the tests, so each person gets the same amount of questions as this is a reoccurring problem. If you fail a test (get less than 60 percent on it) you ave to wait 20 hours to retake it. This plan will see a lot of success as it will spread people out into worlds and help contain griefers into raptor and locust (a griefer wont wait 5 hours to grief mantis). The hours will also stop people going "review review"
That is my plan to make the server a better place everyone. I know that it means being harder on people, but we need to because the high traffic is getting very hard to control, and like i said next thing you know everyone will be an OP. Please let this get to the owners and maybe we can put this into affect. If it is put into affect, everyone will keep their ranks, but the rules will apply to them from that moment on
THIS IS NOT IN AFFECT, IT IS JUST AN IDEA 
great ideas though hope they work.
