Scissors
Scissors was a fork of Paper which was designed to patch exploits used on the TotalFreedom server. The project was started on March 12, 2022[1] by players LunaWasFlaggedAgain and Community:VideoGameSm12. The first exploit Scissors patched was Exploits#Infinity Cart. Initially, this exploit was patched by Community:Telesphoreo in a private fork of Paper. Lead Developer Community:Paldiu initially got mad at Telesphoreo due to a misunderstanding about what was patched. The JAR for the private Paper fork was pulled and shortly after, the Scissors project was born. The project initially supported version 1.17.1 for TotalFreedom. Telesphoreo ported all of the patches to 1.18.2 and other versions after 1.17.1. On July 22, 2023, Scissors was added to bStats[2].
