Widd

Widd or widd_ is the creator and admin of ban.land along side Dio_B. He created the server around April-May 2019 and kept it private until June 2019 when it went fully public.

Widd is a respectable admin, usually fixing things immediately if there is a problem with the server.

Server History
Widd started the server in 1.14 or 1.14.2. He frequently updates the server once a version becomes stable enough. On 25th of June 2019, he updated the server to 1.14.3. In this update he added the Title/Rank system which added multiple titles with rarity into the game, he frequently updates this plugin up to today. More info here.

He updated the server to 1.15.2 on the 10th of February 2020.

Due to abuse of portal technology, on the 13th February 2020, Widd added a punishment for crossing dimensions, where Nether portals would explode when lit. This would later be avoidable with an enchanted flint and steel. By this point there were 10 obtainable titles and the /titles command was implemented.

Giants
On 21st February, Giants were added. These would be hostile towards players and other giants, and had the same spawning conditions as humans. You could only damage them with Tipped Arrows. More info here.

Controversy
Widd isnt known for much controversy, but some do exist. On 3rd-4th November 2020, a bug in the spawning config meant that all players would spawn at 0,0. Quickly, players rushed to make a spawn trap. This is known as the Spawn Genocide. On the 5th November 2020, Widd had patched this, expanding the spawn radius to 500 rather than 300. This angered most players as previously, the 300 spawn radius was being nuked to control player spawns. Widd received much criticism on this event.
