Won't start on 1.21.3-82
So I have switched to "self hosting" from a machine I rent, I've never dealt with switching jars without the host just having simple installs. I have done everything I was supposed to and changed my executable and updated it and it still won't start on 1.21.3-82

Recommended Minimum Resources
Decided to roll with Prismnodes to host my server temporarily. Running Better Minecraft BMC4 for a relatively small group until I build my dedicated server.
Honestly I don't expect more than 4 players on at any given moment, but plan for about 8 that are interested in accessing at the moment. Is 8 or 10GB a reasonable amount to start with? I'm trying to stay budget conscious at the moment and not particularly wanting to pay more than I need going into a relatively short term venture....
30% cpu usage on 1.20.1 paper normal?
i have no plugins installed
CPU: AMD EPYC 9554 (4) @ 3.095GHz
OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS x86_64
RAM: 16gb ddr4...
Cpu for personal hosting
will be that big of a difference between the 4590 vs 8500, with a 15% in single thread, for a small server in linux

Better Minecraft Server Inquiry
Howdy all! Many apologies if this post comes across as trivial or under-researched on my part in advance. But I have been playing BMC4 with my spouse using the world share feature with Luna for the past 2 weeks. interest in the world has spread among our friend group and I had some questions regarding requirements for dedicated servers that I may be unaware of.
I have an Acer Aspire E15 sitting around collecting dust. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to go through the trouble of loading it up with Debian and running a dedicated server from there.
- Core i5-8250U
- 8GB RAM...
[Metrics] Connection Refused.
I keep getting this error from time to time in console, what does it mean? What plugin handles that? I'm not sure it's linked to any specific plugin
I'm on paper 1.21.4...
Kicked for middle click selecting a block in my server
It gives me "invalid hotbar selection (Hacking?)" on kick
I'm on Pufferfish fork of paper (latest, I just updated and replaced the server.jar)...
Which is the best PvP Arena plugin that can achieve this functionality
Hi, i know there are many pvp arena plugins, but am wondering which is the best one that has the feature of say, the first player that gets to a 100 kills, wins the round, then round restarts, and as soon as u die you respawn, something like that, also if there can be randomized spawn points at start / at death then it will be a cherry on top.
Sanity Check - Do These Plugins Exist?
Hi, I've done some searching online and as far as I can tell what I'm looking for doesn't exist as a plugin RN. If they exist, please tell me before I spend ages coding them myself
1. A bestiary plugin that works with mythicmobs (when you kill a mob it's added to your bestiary with stats and lore)
2. An item management plugin to create items with custom stats and lore and whatever. Importantly, the items must be updateable (for example if I decide item XYZ needs a nerf, next time the player logs in or holds the item or whatever, the stats and lore of the item will be updated)...
Just wondering how I would build this Plugin
I am super noob, want to change the text that shows when executing some commands, but to do this I would have to from the src, once I have made the changes I want, how would I build this? I have gradle and have built plugins before but just don't want to do it wrong lol

BlueMap-like Static Website?
Is there such thing as a BlueMap-like static map website that I could generate for the whole world, and then shutdown the server and leave the map up? I'm not expecting this to be a real thing but I thought I'd check as its a nice idea...
Cheers in advance....
server lag - modernfix using 40% of server thread
My server produces lag spikes mostly when new chunks are loaded/generated.
I have run a spark profiler for about 40 minutes: https://spark.lucko.me/zCNlVd9dS0
Please provide advice on how to optimise performance. Thanks.

advice: magnum torch vs. torchmaster? (forge 1.20.1)
kinda vague question, but which one tends to be better for performance?
i like the customization of magnum torches better, but want to go with w/e is easier on the server. we're not having performance issues at the moment, but i wanna make sure i'm using best options!
from what i can tell, i think magnum torch runs checks with every single potential entity spawn to see if it's near a torch and what the settings are, even when none of the torches are actively loaded
idk how torchmaster works ...

Issue with vanilla hub and network of velocity with forge clients
crossposting from reddit to see if the opinions and discussion here are different
Howdy, i come here to ask for some light on an issue i am stumbling upon when trying to connect forge clients to my hub which runs on paper vanilla and has viaversion installed to allow other game versions to connect.
The issue begins when forge clients try to connect, it just throws an error because the server is not accepting forge connections but the proxy is setup to do so, in velocity's server they told me its not the proxy but the forge client itself which is rejecting the connection because it is vanilla. I know this is possible to setup and have them in the lobby because i have done it before i just dont quite remember what i did, changed or added....
