Can we have a config option to disable protection? I have a small amount of people on a private server that now i can't go to their bases because of the protection. I don't see a way to turn it off.

I agree with this cause I have a public server that because the protections are active, Players now get spammed with You can't be away from your island or spawn that far away. This is happening with the new update.

Added this config in 1.3.8 (it was called something different in 1.3.7)
