The 1.9 update for minecraft was released last week and a lot of you were asking how the update for the server is doing so I thought I'd give you guys a quick update regarding the update. (that was a lot of "update" in one sentence :P)

The update breaks approximately everything on the server just like every single minecraft update does. So in order to get 1.9 completely supported on the server there will have to be done a lot of work and waiting for plugins, mods and programs to update which usually takes some time. So please notice that the delay in updates isn't completely our fault as most of the weight lies on the third-party developers to update their stuff which, by the way, doesn't always actually happen. A bunch of developers just abandon their projects which leaves us with huge problems especially when our plugins/mods depend on their stuff. So if one thing breaks it can sometimes create a chain of problems so that we end up with 10 other things being broken or severely damaged.

So long story short: You will have to switch back to 1.8 in order to join for a little while longer.
