[Help!] Nether Stars may soon completely leave voting.

Add buttons that people can press on the forums once a day to receive free netherstars? I don't know. I mean it doesn't have the benefits of voting but at least there will still be netherstars. That doesn't seem like it would be breaking EULA. Maybe even just add a command that gives 6 nstars to each player that uses it every day.

 

Yeah. It keeps the netherstars at the same rate they currently are coming into the server while retaining EULA compliance.
Of course there would be no more luckies, but that would help to balance out the fact that more people would do this as it would be quicker than voting.

 

I have an idea, maybe instead of voting to get nstars, there should be another way to get nstars like maybe there should be random chests around the mining world with an nstar in each. Idk, I'll try to post more ideas if I think of any.

 

I like shane's idea of the kit. Could it be possible to make it so you can only use the kit after you do the votes? I assume the server is still going to need votes

 

I like the idea of adding them to /kit started maybe have like 4-6 in there

 

/kit nstar is the way to go

 

I like the kit idea because it would require players to actually log on to the server to obtain nstars, rather than voting offline and stockpiling votes.

 

Well I think that N-stars could be given upon some type of attendance to ECC. I honestly have no idea on how it could be made to be honest. Another good idea is to have a /kit nether stars which actually enforces the user to log on and participate in ECC for a bit. or you could opt in for another form of advertising. Maybe reward veterans of ECC those who have played since the beginning/reached a minimum of Mayor to be allowed on a weekly (could be changed to any time period you would like) raffle for Star-tools/N-stars. Just my opinion from a noob resident

Increase advertising on the forums. Myself and many other players would completely understand why it is necessary.

 

I was thinking perhaps distribute stars based on activity. Give 1 star for each hour spent on the server (obviously this can be adjusted.) Perhaps even give bonus stars for consecutive hours (5 hours > 1 bonus star, 10 hours > 5 bonus stars) which would not be easy to exploit with manual server restarts.

A custom plugin could be made to do '/claim star' for people not in Legacy/Rising (SG or End) that would stack up stars overtime similar to how /mail shows how many messages you have.

 

Then people would just afk, and even if people didn't, builders would be at a large disadvantage as they are not at the point where they are going to stay on ecc for 10 hours straight. Many extra netherstars would be added to the server, whereas my kit netherstar idea keeps the flow the same as it always has at 6 netherstars a day.

 

Add a sign in the server shops selling nstars for $550.. or just sell star tools for money ($500 per nstar, so $550 x 1500 nstars = 750k) and so forth..

 

As a quick fix, I like the "/kit starter" idea.

This is a really cool idea! I'd like to see this happen.

 

Just so you know the link is broken and gives a You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action.

 

Like I mentioned in my post however, the amount distributed could be adjusted. Give 1 star per hour, or even every 2 hours - hell 1 every 5 hours. The variable is adjustable to help balance the nstar market with player activity.

Honestly who cares if someone AFKs to "farm" nether stars if it's distributed at such a long rate? Better to have more players on the server at once than just people logging on to do a kit once a day.
