Hooray! I performed all the same updates in Easy that I did for Semi-Vanilla, except for plugins we don't use like cooldowns or chest shops. I have taken a full backup of Easy, so let me know ASAP if there are any issues!
I found an issue. @_Razz is still killing me in 1.8 as he was in 1.7. I thought you set biz_protection to yes.
There are cool downs when coming to spawn and tping, did you make the cooldown go away or is it still there?
