Uhh yea, as the title sugests, Creepers... What the hell is up with them on this server, A creeper kills you, you lose everthing that was in your inventory. Dosent happen on any other server I have played on/play on, I got killed, lost a sharness 5 diamond sword that clost me 10k and lost full diamond armor.. really.. Wtf is with the creepers, Is it a plugin the server has? Or what.. Cause its NOT in vanilla minecraft.

You need to research into Minecraft if you don't think that items can be lost from explosions.

...they may take damage and disappear from environmental or block-based effects such as Explosions, Fire, Lava, and contact with Cactus...

Then they shouldn't play Minecraft?

Destroying blocks from creeper explosions is blocked as a griefing/trashing defence more than it annoying players. As danniel said, we would receive more complaints from people moaning that their home has been blown up than we would get people moaning their house hasn't been destroyed.

I totally understand that, but that's why most people live in towns.. Towns have the ability to enable or disable that risk of having mobs spawning in claimed land :S. The "wilderness" is a place where the wild live, people need to know that there's a risk of people being evil and using Creepers as a weapon. Usually the regular grief victims are silly enough to build right outside towns, or near spawn.

I'm not meaning to cause a debate or anything, I'd just like Creepers to explode . I know that they wont be unblocked because of obvious/ considering reason and I accept that

I know you said you didn't want to start a debate etc. But, I'd just like to point out - Yes the Wilderness is an un-safe place but it is used for many things such as mining (as residents cannot mine in a town, unless they change the perms..), starting a town, wood cutting, basically - resource collecting. Not all people live in towns, and that will most likely stay. If creeper explosions were turned ON, it would NOT be the inhabitants of the Wilderness homes fault that their house got blown up by someone using a creeper as a vital weapon, it would be the servers fault for turning it on. Eliminating the use of explosions is fine and will most likely stay for the long run.
