    I have noticed an issue.

    If you have been playing on another AEM server for a long time and racked up tons of vote rewards then go to Skyblock you get those rewards BEFORE you have created an island. Once you create your island your inventory is emptied.

    I have seen this happen many times and upset multiple players.

    Can we change this so if you do not have an island it attempts to put your rewards in your enderchest? This would be harder to get to for new people, but the rewards they have earned would be waiting for them.

    Thanks

    Only problem I see with this is new players not having access to ender chests for a while, unless they rush to buy one.

    I don't think this would work. Something could probably be done so the skyblock plugin won't clear players inventories when they first start an island.

    Well, if someone else has another way to accomplish this that would be perfectly fine. This was just the best I could think of at the time.

    Perhaps we could place an enderchest at Spawn. *shrug*

    I am sure there are multiple options. :)

    I have witnessed letting someone (preferably staff) hold the items, let them create an island, and then give the items back immediately after.

    I never replace the items. It's just one of those things that can't be easily fixed. If we put ender chests in the spawn, it would make it way too easy for people to test their Islands and store the items. Same issue of we made it not clear the invs when a new Island is started.

    It is just one of those unique situations where people can't keep their rewards when they first start.

    As an after thought though, maybe it would be possible to put the voting rewards into people's ender invs, since those don't get cleared. People wouldn't already need an ender chest and at worst the items are still theirs even if they can't get to them right away

    Exactly my thinking.
