Yes, so that you can only read it, but not right. Because the ballons i find the ballons are not nice, the chatbox is nicer :s

Yes, the problem is that there is lot of people who just flood our chat in game. Some people who were not accepted as member, or just dumb they just want to get us angry.
So, an option in the config file would be very usefull :)

You can 'hide' the chatbox by commenting 'showchat: modal' so you get:

showchat: modal

Having chat-usernames and some identification-system is being worked on.

Why not identify against Minecraft? This way it would be the same person/name to ban on server and map.

Yes, but this'll also require a user/pass screen in dynmap. We'll figure something out though.

Also, Minecraft.net doesn't offer any 3rd party apps to validate users against their servers like you would use to log into a random site using your twitter/facebook info. Unless they offer some kind of API for that it's impossible.

Right now the client does this at client login:
http://www.minecraft.net/game/getversion.jsp?user=$USER&password=$PASSWORD&version=$VERSION

The Server returns
on success:

$TIMESTAMP : $MD5 : $USER : $SESSIONID

else:

Bad login

or

User not Premium

or

Old version

Thats simple, isn't it?

On the off chance that you saw this on a site that wasn't minecraft.net though, how likely would actually use your MC login information on some random 3rd party site? If the answer is not likely, you win an internet.

I'm going to close this issue, since it's goal has been implemented in 0.14. If you want username/password system, create a new issue.
