hi
the origenal reason offline mode was introduced in Normal minecraft was at time when mojangs login servers went offline and ppl wanted to keep there servers running.
when server owners started complaining to bukkit , bukkit add in Player checks on movement so when in Online mode it would kick the user for moving to fast which combat fly hacks and speed hacks.
of course when bukkit, modloader and modloaderMP started so we could run mods with bukkit , Modloader add a Mod blacklist to help...
Offline mode , its history and why its discouraged
