I would first like to make it clear that I am not suggesting a player-run highway patrol against griefers. Instead, we could effectively have a permanent highway patrol if the roads from the herogates were made into protected regions. In the meantime, the Golden and Emerald roads are in need of serious repairs. I have already tidied up Sapphire and Ruby and will try to figure out the exact pattern going on at Emerald, but I think my proposition would ensure that the players who created the roads on their own initiative receive the respect for their creative efforts that they deserve.
