CamoWisp 1,115 Report post Posted May 21 Hello, everyone. Recently, a member on the server, @KingOfWizards, created a document with a bunch of potential changes and ideas that he, and some other staff members have had for the future of the server. These ideas mostly relate to the servers Economy and how that would boost Survival playtime, and have a major focus on Towny (I removed Towny's ability to automatically remove towns when running out of funds.) However, through more discussion, we wanted to see the communities opinions on all of these ideas, so we get a good idea on how our 1.13 should work. Keep in mind that we've already talked it through and we've decided not to remove Creative from Diamonds/Emeralds, though potential changes MAY be made. We also shifted focus on potentially having griefing be enabled in the wilds, to give towns a higher incentive. The farther you go out into the wilds, the less of a chance of you getting griefed, as opposed to living in the wilderness directly by spawn. Nath suggested the idea of, if you are griefed, we can rollback, but after two or three times, we will no longer rollback that specific players builds and suggest they live in a town or find a better way to hide their home. We ask that you have a mature outlook and response to these ideas, as we don't just want complaints or shit like "NOOO DON'T", but constructive criticism. Personally, I think his ideas for the Economy, Towny, and Spawn are mostly perfect, and all strive for more playtime and for everything to be much more worth it in the long run.

STD 27 Report post Posted May 22 (edited) I have a small question for the rollback part. Since you are able to recover lost items 2 or 3 times, players could exploit this and basically duplicate items by filling up chests with valuables and having someone "grief" them. Also, how would you keep track of what builds have been rollbacked and which ones haven't? Because of the constant logging on and logging off of staff, people who already had their build rollbacked several times could trick new staff or lie to different staff that their build was not rollbacked before. (I am not sure if there is a way to keep track of this so sorry if I am wrong) This is just a factor I recommend you guys take into account before setting up a griefing system.

Well I had a suggestion for this, basically for the duping it is a possible problem with a simple fix, we can just go to the thiefs base or open their inv (Which won't work all the time but is a solution), as for keeping track, there is a plugin that simplifies those things which we already had for a time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The people could sell the items or hand it off to another person to store. Also for keeping track, after one person has their base rollbacked 2 or 3 times, they could "grief" their friends base and get that rollbacked which doubles the profits. I do understand that this situation is unlikely but I believe that it is best to take all the necessary precautions before attempting to implement such a system into the server. Also, since this is starting to sound like factions, I think it would be best to change or create a server (if possible) which allows players to play something like "Aggressive Survival" or something like that. (Or maybe conduct a poll) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Or maybe conduct a poll) Believe me, we're far from wanting to be factions. The general concept behind griefing in the wild is used as an incentive for players to use Towny for protection, yet having it still be an optional choice. Usually players who want to be away from people go out far distances (10,000+ blocks out) and may hide underground or just be far enough that they are rarely ever griefed. We would also keep lockette. If we were by chance to go down that road, the server would not be advertised as "griefing" but as "Towny" and/or "SMP" as always. If we were to advertise the server as "griefable" or whatever then we'd only get factions-type new members that no-one on here really wants, if they are the rude/generally annoying type. The idea of rolling-back griefs a few times per person is decent, too, I just think it'd be extremely annoying to have to count between each person, even if using a specific plugin. I was thinking of another community poll about this whole griefing topic as this would be quite a controversial change, especially for this community. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe if you came back you could do it ;( But yeah, idk about "artifacts" but certain prizes that wouldn't be TOO valuable. PvP can be enabled in certain plots I believe.
