Most of you constantly ask about 1.8. The reason it's been taking so long is that we're waiting on Sponge as the main server wrapper that we intend to run for 1.8 (for a variety of reasons, but the tl;dr: more future-proof, will be better and will possibly allow for even more "custom" loka).
However, given that we think we might actually be losing players to 1.8 (due to the fact that other major servers are 1.8 these days), I'm going to be investigating moving to Spigot 1.8 until such time as Sponge is out and stable. Theoretically, updating to Spigot
I'll keep this thread posted on any updates. It's possible that in order to favor getting to 1.8 sooner (which I think we would all like), we may end up disabling parts of Loka (Territories, for example) in order to do so and then phasing them back in as soon as we can. I'll keep you guys posted!
