As far as I can see each of the major modpacks are supposed to use a username that's the mod name in square brackets. These need to be whitelisted in some way.

Here's where it gets odd. On another server that uses a protected claims system: mining and building machines are inhibited until you "trust" any one of the three special usernames. Since any one is sufficient I presume they're somehow aliases rather than seperate names.

Trusting [redpower] enables IC and BC but not RP, suggesting that maybe the name RP uses doesn't match the one reserved for it?

I think its strange though.

On a related note: Has anyone been able to place a solid (not water or lava) block using a deployer? I was trying it and I think it would place buckets of water or lava OK but I couldn't get it to plant a sapling or place dirt. I might have been doing it wrong though.

Further: the other server I play had it fixed last night. I've asked the admin what they did to make it work.
