Release something official to break the inventory hacks. I don't like faggots with infinite TnT destroying everybody on my server's hard work in second. I had to shut off all explosions with WorldGuard because the lack of an official anti-hack. I think I may cry.

Notch is totally snorting coke off a hooker's tits right now.
Just disable TNT, there is no legit way to get it without creepers, which are just as annoying, unless you cheat yourself and spawn/dupe gunpowder. TNT is not that usefull anyway. With health now its just dangerous to use for mining.
TNT has many legit uses , such as firing cannons at someone's house while it's occupied. Arrows just don't make a strong enough point.
You sir made my day.
Ontopic: Honestly all that you can do is try to disable it and wait for mods to kick in because I don't believe Notch is going to be adding an antigrief system any time soon.

I believe there was a poll about this, either fix SMP damage or fix the dupe bug (among other things). I believe it ended up about 80% to 20%, in favor of SMP damage. So it's on his mind, but will just have to wait a bit more.
As some others stated there are plugin/mods that can fix this to some degree.
You know if someone destroys your stuff you can just revert to a previous backup and ban them? And even moreso, the more you cry about griefers, the more you attract and the more pleasure they get from destroying your buildings.
Seriously, stop being so damned attached to some blocks in a videogame
You're implying I gave half a **** about the houses destroyed. I only care about silly little script kiddies using inventory hacks on my server.

Yeah this is 100% wrong. Cannons and most of the good traps rely on TNT and its easy to mine w/ TNT with health on, seeing as you can wire it and blast from a distance, or just run away during the generous fuse time. TNT makes this game a lot more fun, especially for pvp and protecting your house from raiding while you're offline, and it would be nice to see it work well enough by default that most servers allow it. Which of course requires the inventory hacks to be fixed which will be a while. More active hosts can allow it now and just use whitelists and inventory checkers. Just takes a lot of trusted mods and some admins on all the time (someone who can ban on all the time).

Nerd, geek, server admin, guy wearing a rainbow skin (with an office suit of epicness)? That's me.

The anti-hack utility hasn't been updated for b127 yet and I don't like having a whitelist. Reading applications is boring. I'll just ban the TnT.
