Server crash / major lag [fixed]

Short Story: Server is fixed, land has been decimated.

Long story:Schooner decided the world did not have enough torches. So he selected a large portion of the map and replaced it with torches. This promptly caused a server crash. For the next few days anyone that entered that (rather large) area would cause the server to crash and because it was such a large area we were not able to get close and slowly allow the torches to disappear by themselves. Coincidentally the world edit command to remove entities has been broken for a long time so we couldn't use that either. Next, following a suggestion from bloody I downloaded and opened the map in MCEdit, a 3rd party out of game editing tool. When I entered the torch area I was greeted by my old friend, unbearable lag. Next, I did what any man would do, selected an area of 43,000,000 blocks and deleted all entities inside of it. I then re-uploaded the map and Voila! It was fixed. Unfortunately there is still a HUUUUGE area that has anything of a certain height completely destroyed, with torches everywhere. If your house was destroyed we'll see what we can do for ya however I don't think too many were destroyed. I'm gonna try to repair as much of the destroyed area as I can but it looks like its gonna be a lot of work.

Happy Crafting

We need more bowls.

Lol @ Burly.

Also Schoon, nothing of mine broke, I just wanted to see pics of the carnage XDD
We still love you :)

Well, that'll teach me to post BEFORE going online.
... Fuck, I don't even know how to react with anything other than dismay and... I don't know.

Well. Fuck.

I suppose I could throw a massive temper tantrum but bluh. Just help me fix it, okay? I suppose I should count my blessings that I have some screenshots that'll help get it back to how it used to be and that it didn't destroy my bridge.

... But my hugrug :( My beloved hugrug...
