The 1.4 Update/Complain here about the server being on 1.3

I know I know Why the hell am I posting when I know we have to wait for the stable build of Bukkit. I'm kinda sick of this silly waiting game It's been about a month since 1.4 came out. At this rate we might as well wait for 1.5. To be honset I've been playing on servers with the dev build of 1.4.5 and they run fine and they have all the essential plugins that twitcraft needs to run. I don't see why we can't just upgrade now. I know Curley wants the the TWiTCraft ship to be running full speed ahead but it's a ship that slowly getting out of date. I would be fine if we did a sub server of 1.4.5 dev build. Maybe load in the survival map from main twitcraft just to mess around with 1.4 . But we would tell users that this server would come down when main twitcraft updates and no changes would be brought over to the main server. Well i ranted. Please reply with you rants.

No don't update to 1.4 yet, I have to take care of some 1.3 stuff before we upgrade.

I'll let you know when I am ready.

The only reason I even worry about the server being on the current version is so that server population is higher. What's the point of a multiplayer server with all the addons we talk about working if there is not much of a server population to use them. When we are current we have a significant uptick in players.

I will admit that's part of why I haven't been as active lately. As a former network admin I fully anticipate these sorts of delays, but at the same time some of the new content is just THAT enticing...

I know you can version juggle using 3rd party software, but it can get annoying after a while. I really wish minecraft would handle version better where within itself I could keep the last X versions, and when I try to connect to a 1.3 server for example it just connects using the 1.3 client. (I know that's asking a lot since you could probably count the games that have done this in the past on one hand)

As far as the server goes... about all I can say is I've not quit, just not taken the time to resolve the whole having an older version of minecraft to play since it's annoying to do all that... Soon as the server is up to speed I'll be back on working on my dome again
