    Dude. Just calm it. To be honest it think that most of this is miss undrstandings and I called it original skyblock as it's easier to say. Finally, if there is one thing I will argue about it is /fly you said "spawners make it to easy" ( I para quoted that btw) however surely the same can be said about /fly?

    Keep this thread purely suggestive and keep arguments between yourself and non-disruptive to the thread. Thank you.

    I'll try to keep this suggestive as much as I can for @MooMoo and @CaptainStarkie while trying to keep to the topics at hand.

    Concerning /fly:

    I think it's a nice perk to have. As someone who played before AEM 2.0 without /fly and someone who got /fly before OP skyblock was released, the command isn't broken or cheaty at all. It's just really convenient to have for large builds. For a large gold farm, cacti farm, or decorative build (house, town, mansion, pixel art, etc.) you can do everything without /fly. It would just take a whole lot more time. And from memory, it's a perk for skylord+, which is a sizeable donation (emphasis on that word) to the server, so I think it's a nice perk to give to people who have donated quite a bit to the server.

    Moving on to cobblestone gens, ores, and minerals:

    Cobblestone generators should do just that: generate cobblestone. Similarly, smoothstone generators should generate normal stone. Only.

    Ores and minerals use to be rewards on certain challenges. IIRC, some challenges gave 1 iron ore for every completion, and something similar for other minerals as well. Also, people tend to build iron and gold farms anyway, so I'm not sure why there's resistance to having these ores and minerals accessible to players in other ways.

    And there's always villager trading for things like lapis, glass, redstone, tools, enchants, and other stuff I can't remember right now.

    Kits:

    Should be limited to armor, tools, and whatever else seems ok to include in kits. I'll leave this up to the dev/admin team to decide. As long as the kits aren't super game-breaking to the economy, I'll be happy.

    Everything else mentioned:

    Can't remember and can't be bothered to go back to look. I agree with pretty much everything outlined in the OP.

    On the fly point, you said that it's a nice perk for them. However, they haven't played anything in non-op skyblock as the tank is carried over. To be honest, I feel as if people are saying that they like you as they themselves have it.

    On the point of cobble stone generators, is there any hard in having a slight chance of getting idea, if people take the time to get the idea then that's their choice. Yet again you have mentioned that you be able to get ores from kits. But, how will non-donors get ores- you say challenges but what it they need the ores in the first place to complete the challenge.

    And just putting this out there:
    Many people you call high and donators are people who have donated aged ago.

    /fly in any server is going to be a problem. People who donate enough money feel that they should get some more powerful (but not game breaking) commands while those who don't or can't donate as much will feel that /fly is overpowered. If /fly is put in, I'll be happy. If it isn't, I'll suck it up and move forward. That's all I'm going to say about this.

    IIRC, there are NO challenges that require mineral ores to complete challenges. The ores are somewhat obsolete imo, as they need to be put in a furnace to get the mineral out, where as it's much easier (and time efficient) to build the farm for any particular mineral. The only time I could see a use for the ore block would be in some kind of mine/mineshaft creative build.

    Um, I don't see why this is an issue. Donations help pay for the costs that come with running a server, so why does it matter if a player donated on day 1 or yesterday?

    I agree with most of, if not all the points you have made Marsel. I have faith that Sway and the team will keep it very similar to the original skyblock, perhaps with a few needed tweaks to keep it fresh. I'm excited to start fresh again and see who can create the best island and who will be the richest, that was always what excited me, trying to have the best island and increasing my balance.

    The reason I mentioned challenges is because say for example I needed some obsidian (just an example I don't know if it is an actual challenge) how would I get the obsidian? I would need a diamond pickaxe.

    Also you said that people have payed lots of money for fly, people payed money for fly on factions (legend rank+) but that was taken away from them.

    Just arguing my points of view. In no way am I trying to offend or cause trouble

    Okay, let me clear something up, you need obisidan and to mine it you need a diamond pick, you could either do a couple challenges to get diamonds or you could trade with villagers or trade/buy from other players who have diamonds.

    Pinned to the top of forums so it won't get lost by other posts since it is good feedback we are getting.

    Could all of you calm down please? there is not much point in fighting, all of your ideas will most likely be considered at least and in the end one will be chosen. But fighting will not change the chances of your ideas being implemented. I infact do have ideas of my own, but since their is so much fighting going on, i will not post them here as i may appear bayist in some eyes. I will rather find a different way of giving my ideas.

    Lol this is very late for one and two we were never never having a go at oneanother just arguing out points and explaning why we thought our own opinions were right. Finally, I did not once say anything against him, he didn't say anything against me either.

    Where did everyone get the idea that this was a fight? As Crack said above we were just having a discussion, not once did any of us insult each other, we were just giving ouropinions and discussing them with each other, if you ask me, it's you guys who over reacted...

    i could clearly see some comments made that could have been taken offense to, and the way you guys were talking back to eachother definitely made it look like a fight. All im asking is keep this thread to suggestions and not debates. Like i said, one will be chosen and debating (im not using the word "fight" as you believe i overreacted) is not going to help your chances. So please just keep this to suggesting and nothing else
