PIPES on EU Survival

Well this certainly is NOT a new bug, but the pipes are broken on EU Survival.  They periodically disconnect, NOT visually as you can still see them, but they are not actually connected.  I could spend time explaining this bug, but I'm pretty sure your fully aware of this bug, and for some reason, have no desire or inclination to fix it?  I've been playing on this server for over 6 months and was warned about this bug before I joined, so I can only assume this bug has been here since the mod was written.  I have spoke to Death and he said the mod was written 'in-house' but didn't go much further in discussing how or if it was going to be fixed.  I'm sure if this problem was discussed more openly or brought to the forefront, this community could fix or find a way to fix this problem. FFS If you posted this issue on Fiver, someone might be able to fix it.  What I'd like is some discussion with the person who wrote this mod, so I/we could understand the issue and maybe help with a solution.  There are clever people in this community and even more clever people by proxy. So please, let have start some discussion and hopefully bottom this bug once and for all.
