    To be fair, he was just adjusting it to the new 15k/usd statute. I think it's safe to say that within 24 hours of EULA implementation, there will be a suggestion about the price of water.

    We will have a booster that cuts the price in half :)

    Will there be more than one booster? Say if there was a booster that cut off 75% of the price, 25% of the price etc.

    I'd doubt it, all that Andrew has said has pointed to it being only a single half-off booster.

    They will probably only be usable with cosmetics / lobby features on the store.

    New updates:

    - Mojang just released 1.9.3! Blacklist is now live.
    - Mojang has confirmed we are EULA compliant. EcoCityCraft is not blacklisted.
    - Blacklisted servers cannot be connected to, regardless of the version you use. They have backported it!
    - TL;DR - Mojang is damn serious about this! Blocked server player counts are diving as we speak, unreal!

    More updates:

    - Mojang has backported this to 1.8 and possibly lower confirmed.
    - Mojang has some sort of client scanning algorithm, not sure how it works, but changing domains, subdomains, heck even changing to different IPs doesn't work.

    Oh man the power is off the charts.
    A new era in Minecraft begins.

    Thank god we jumped on this ASAP and confirmed our compliance.

    More updates:

    - We have removed spawn statues from the store and cancelled all subscriptions.
    It is against the EULA to offer users private player plots for a fee, and we must stay absolutely 100% compliant thus requiring the statues removals.

    - @donkey5k @wolfwoodnyo @xX3PICREBELXx @KMaxwell: Your statues are still accessible for another month. I've cancelled your subscription through paypal however - please message me if this is not the case via PM on your end at PayPal. As well for being continued supporters with our statues until the end, we will award all of you all three statue medals :).

    - Statue forum medals are currently no longer available. In the future we may have a new way to offer them. Perhaps with the event tokens :D!

    Wait.. What? I was just getting ready to subscribe to this as a way to support our sever. How was this not EULA compliant?
    Will there be other ways available sometime soon?

    Other ways to get the statues? Yes perhaps via event tokens :).
    Unfortunately this falls under private player plots which are not allowed.

    Getting the message about the cancelled subscription before I looked at the forums today was a serious WTF moment, as I enjoyed having me just outside the Spawn Gate to my town. Still, I entirely understand the EULA compliance, and appreciate that you took these steps for us.

    I presume our current statues will need to be taken down. I'll get to mine ASAP.

    Your current statues will remain until your renewal date :).
    Also apologies, but it's out of my hands, Mojang's wishes.
