    Hello Turtwiginator95 again

    Ive been waking around build worlds and have noticed alot of building griefing. It is upsetting knowing players are being raided and have no idea how to defend themselves or reporttplayers. So here is my proposition. (Remember this is a proposition to help builder I stand nothing to gain for this)

    - a hotel or town set aside for builders only (created and hosted by the server to prevent scams) where the builders wont have perms for the town so there can be no random griefing from trollers they can have access only to an Ender-chest or are given a chest to lock themselves. Basic room set up 10x10 1bed, 1chest, 1table this is designed just to let them get the vital 1st 1, 000 eco dollars so they can buy a plot if they want in safety. This can also solve the builder problems people have (advertising, griefing, or just trolls) and give a safe town for builders to get their first steps in.

    - I want to do more for the builders because I know how confusing it could be and I know most of u do as well. Anyother suggestions for builders are welcomed I just feel they are under represented. We cant give them a tutorial and stone pick and say "see ya when your ecoleader" well thats how we started, however most players cant be successful without any help early on.

    Thanks for your time.

    All you need to do is vote once. You can make between 900 and 2100, depending on what people are buying them for. Then the Builder can afford to buy a plot in a protected town.

    2100 O.O dang who are yoh buying from? Lol and yes I agree with pickle your expecting players to be experts the 1st day. It takes a while at least a few days to learn the ropes to the server.

    Well, considering users are - literally - harassed with a vote reminder message every two-five minutes.... And /sell commands are quite easy to find (and used on many other servers)... It's not too hard to make quick cash with voting.

    On the suggestion itself, though, it would be far too hard to manage. Non-automatic would be impossible to keep up with. As well, there would be upwards to 50 or more new users getting a "plot," if it was an automated system "advertised" well like vote reminders.

    Just imagine creating the buildings, the chests, unlocking chests every day... Teleporting the users.... And with an automated system, it would likely be extremely buggy with all of the locking, unlocking, and teleporting there would be.

    If you want to help out newbies, best create your own town for it and advertise to them. I know it would be a griefable town, but it just means you have to be a bit stricter and check for grief.

    Um, on an aside. I run a free hotel that is basically what you describe... builders hate it. They don't want some small room with some chests. They want a plot. Just saying, it would go pretty much unused.

    It is a kind idea, but sadly I have not seen any interest from builders. Most of them look at it and leave for a plot or stay there for a few hours and then leave. I'm glad to see your heart is in the right place though. As you requested, this will be locked. Hopefully we, the server, can think of other ways as a community to aid the builders.
