    Hello AEM Skyblockers!

    I'd like to leave this thread right here for everyone to make suggestions for what they'd like to see fixed, added to, updated, reinvented, etc. as far as our Skyblock experience. We want to hear from you, the players, as to what is going well, what isn't, whatever YOU guys think would make AEM's Skyblock a more enjoyable experience for all players, new and old alike.

    I will start us out in this post and will keep this post as updated as is humanly possible when new suggestions or ideas come in. (Please note that all OP, non-helpful, or "this thing sucks, get rid of it" posts will promptly be ignored and deleted. I want to see mature, organized, and well thought out suggestions please and thank you.)

    Suggestions:





      • Have only regular Skyblock staff have Mod or Admin ranks in Skyblock(I can tell you we are throwing around a global [Staff] prefix for all servers that we are not officially staff on so that, if needed, we can still enforce the rules on other servers and have players listen)



      • Move /kits to bi-weekly



      • Make /kit tools avilable every 12 hours & add a stone hoe



      • Add the McJobs plugin

    • Re-add hostile mob spawn eggs to /kit eggs?

    • Add /repair to perks of Skylegend (one tool bi-weekly?)

    • Add trail or probationary periods for new mods or the helper rank

    • Insert the rule of Cross-Server trading is PROHIBITED

    • Add more perks to premium rank specifically

    • Chestshops! <3

    • Enable keep inventory in nether/end upon death

    • Addition of /stack to players? At certain ranks maybe.

    • Please configure clearlag so it doesn't remove minecarts. It is awesome tool for transporting and farming. Or at least configure it to not remove minecarts with hoppers.

    • Perhaps add /is top (number). So it works in a similar way to /baltop (number). Atm you can only see the top ten islands.
    Additions:

    • Updated location and design of /warp endportal

    • Skyblock pvp arenas, coming soon!
    Fixes:

    • Colored chat needs to be fixed for ranks Extreme+(as of now, it is only available to Admins and with /me)

    • Alchemist challenge needs to be patched

    • Top Chef challenge needs to be fixed.

    • Fix Buycraft-Server rank ups

    • Island level challenges that give heads/skulls needs to be fixed.

    I agree with everything you have posted idk about a skyblock reset though, there's another thing an actual price list for items in game so players can't keep changing them , in turn would make the economy a lot better. fluctuating prices Does Not make for a good economy... i think there's a plug in for item igm value

    fluctuating prices are part of a economy, prices go up if a resource is rare and go down if its all over the market.

    Players selling items they worked hard to get is part of the Skyblock game. I do not believe that having set prices for everything will improve the Skyblock experience, but will only restrict it. We certainly don't want to restrict anyone's style of play. In addition, economy is all about supply and demand. If someone is willing to pay $500 for 64 cactus, who are we to dissuade them. If someone is willing to pay, they will, if not, they won't. :D I do appreciate your suggestion though, thank you.

    I dun like that you deleted my other post that was obviously completely on the subject. So I make dis one to look like I am making a suggestion but really just trying to get attention. Stuff in the admin shop is meant to be overpriced to encourage players to trade with others. Understood. I think that you should increase the SELL PRICE for certain items like gunpowder and eggs. Gunpowder has almost no use in skyblock. Selling it for like .20$ per stack is kind of pathetic though. Especially considering the certain players that don't like to chat, or that just play and don't buy/sell anything except from the shop. Oh yeah, and one more thing. DON'T STEAL MY GOLD PLOX AND I LIKE PIE!!!!!!

    well there should still be a guideline for prices because i haven't seen anything change with most of the items in auc and shops. 1 person will sell a diamond for 80 another will sell for 120 all in the same 24hour period , well then there should be a plug in designed for how rare items are , how it will keep track of how many of each are sold then it determines the price at that time

    Well the point of not having a price sheet is so the economy is not so boring... If there was an auction going on and you knew that exact price of the item and so did everyone else, you wouldn't pay more than it's worth right?
    With the auctioneer, that person would want to get their moneys worth right? I wouldn't let my item get sold under priced.
    It makes the game more challenging since no one knows that exact price.. Just average. So, you might get ripped off or you might get a really good deal.
    And with the work involved to even make/maintain that idea.

    Meg stole this from TnT she is a criminal BAN HER D:<
    Also my suggestion. Demote all staff that do NOT play on that specific server. This is for AEM in general, but can also be directed to Skyblock. Because apparently staff can still ban ever w/o being staff on that server, so the point? You get /tp and all the /kits?

    Yea, they need to stop the glitches with /is party. I seriously dont want to have a unfriendly stranger and destroy all my diamond blocks :/

    Also, the economy, I dont even know what to say. Everything is so cheap that I dont even really auction/sell stuff anymore. It would be cool if we got a new skyblock server but we kept the old one :3

    i think that skyblock should not restart and also it would be cool if when you die all you stuff goes in a chest so clear lag does not clear all your stuff

    Not exactly, as I wanted it done for all gamemodes and plan to bug Alex personally about all of it. But yes, I kinda did :p

    You sure those were good thoughts tnt? o_O Thanks for starting your thread, I'm hoping to include some of those ideas here or duplicate what was already started <3

    Perhaps the addition of a Hardcore Skyblock server? I dunno if Alex would go for just another Skyblock server, but he may be open to a DIFFERENT type of Skyblock server. Not sure, I'll add both ideas in. :D

    Not sure this will happen, though I will add it. Part of the challenge of Skyblock is working in such a tiny space and the possibility of falling off and losing stuff. That is what Skyblock is all about, trying to build up your island without dying, or dying as little as possible. lol

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys, please keep them coming!
