Saving Kiwike

2) Clear the ban list. Entirely. Everyone. Jyan, Terion, Pavja, Nlews, Pwol, Ian, all of them. Start from a clean slate. Be strict with these players and keep an eye on them but let them return. Jyan lead a major city, and had a large shop, he took the thieve's guild down from the inside and did a great deal for the server. Terion will just get himself rebanned and rolled back, unless he's decided he actually wants to try minecraft for a change. Pavja, although he may have xrayed, was a great influence for the server. He created a major guild, lead two towns, built a casino for people to play at, and wrote some fantastic lore. If he xrays again just ban him, but a clean slate is critical to rebuilding a broken community. NLews and Pwol likewise built a great empire in 2.0 lead many cities, were fantastic at PVP and politics and helped tons of players get started on kiwike. Their return would not destroy the server as much as it would help. Same can be said for a lot of banned players and most of the griefers aren't going to remember this server.

3) Shrink the staff and alter staff rules. A smaller less intrusive staff is critical to the server (no offense). Perhaps divide the staff into people who can tempban and people who can perma-ban or other distinctions in staff rank. Require the staff to act professionally at all times or lose their positions.

These 2 points together with the fact that you're not willing to identify yourself makes me think you're one of those banned players wanting to return.
