well im the one who posted something so u can place ores... but im kinda not modivated to play the server anymore. i need to make money faster. (Raise in Crop prices) would be nice. like pumpkins should go up 1$ or something. I want McMMO back for Farming only :| since thats the only thing how to make money fast ... Andrew i hope u are viewing this forum cause i want that plugin again.. Hope we get it back :|
look at all these amazing arguments that will most likely go to waste. personally, this is what i think. i came onto this server quite litereally the DAY after mcmmo was removed, because it said mcmmo was enabled. it was not. i played a little, happened to get lucky with diamonds bought plot/town soon nation. but then what? i dont know what the bugs with mcmmo were, i assume mainly duplication glitches. so. my point being, i wonder how many people would explouit those glitches. i personally believe that at least 97% of people would avoid the bugs on purpose, because 97% of people dont want to cheat. sure, you will get a few builders here and there who become rich. out of nowhere. just make a code that alerts when builders make over a certain amount, and if that happens check out how. if it was a glitch, ban ofcourse, this is assuming. i dont know what the glitches are. but i really do not believe that 100% of people should be punished for 3% commiting a crime. you want more donations? get more people. oyu want more people on the server? mcmmo is the solution, bugs or not.
...It doesn't work that way. Andrew doesn't have time to be checking who has made money extremely quickly and ban them before the money spreads. (When the money spreads, it can be extremely difficult to take out of the economy.) It only takes one person to abuse a dupe issue/money making issue to completely screw up the economy for a while, which ruins the experience for everyone. If McMMO had an issue like this, it won't, and shouldn't, be added until it is fixed. I believe most of the issues were with some McMMO features not working, other random things like unarmed skill giving you +7DMG at an extremely early level, and a few performance issues, though. Still, the performance issues alone mean that McMMO won't bring more players if it's added, instead, it will just keep the server laggy and keep people away. Until McMMO is stable, there is absolutely no way it should, or will come back. I'm not against McMMO in any way, I just know how bad some of the issues with it were. Some that I won't mention on the occasion it comes back and it's still not fixed. If you guys want McMMO, you will have to wait. If it comes back now, it could have bugs that make the performance horrible... Or could screw up the economy by inflating it insanely high, making money not worth as much to builders, ruining their experience. Or possibly just have various other bugs for incredible stat leveling at a fast rate, ruining the /mctop. In any case, if it even has one bug, it could be a pretty bad idea to add it. @Rabidworm - 3%? Really? I think you would be surprised. Closer to about 20-40%, possibly more. Most people just don't find these things, but when they do... @Rezonl, might have some sort of bug/conflict with another plugin. Lag might not be as bad on other servers that don't have 250 players online...
McMMO may mainly be wanted for farming purposes, but their are many different additions! If we've survived this long without it and are on the edge just take over the project or better yet remove the problems from the code and use what's left.
McMMO encouraged more people to manually clear their towns, for the excavation skill and minor other-item drops... I would honestly have more luck hiring people to clear things for me, because they'd be more willing if they are getting essentially three benefits. Many people were using the combat, too. I honestly don't think the major part of McMMO was for farming, as I was seeing the other aspects used just as often.
I haven't been here long. But I agree with Emu... he's a jerk! He always snipes the lotto, and it's only a game for the big shots because of him and a few others. <33 But I understand that. I have been enjoying the server so far. I've seen the big wig lotto wars, met the amazingly helpful people (Mezri, Tyraid, xerxesbeat... and more than I should list). I've donated, got features, applied for resident. I aspire to be a Mayor and President some day. However... farming pumkins does get boring. And if Millionaires are doing it, along with scrub builders like me... and all of us feel the same, there's something missing. I wasn't here for the days MCMMO was here, but I support Emu (the lotto sniper :evil: ) and the others who say bring it back! I'll even donate for it if you give me an option to specifically support that feature. Whatever you decide, I will still play here. And thank you for running a good server with quality players. :ugeek:
Personally, as someone who loves building things in the Aether, and having a lot of plans for it, I don't think MCMMO should be brought back because, with the ability to get multiple drops from ore using MCMMO, the ability to place ore blocks would be disabled and that would limit the design capabilities for projects I plan to make.
I think anything that tracks stuff or skill level so people can see how they compare to others would be awesome kuke. I did like that mcmmo gave oddball items while digging occasionally but the big perk to me and others was just competeing for top 10 in different categories. I mean I worked hard to make top 10 on archery. I know maybe other people used the plugin to get rich but I just wanted to top leader boards and I lost money trying to up my archery, sure wasn't making any.
The only reason I used to farm was so I could beat nelson. It truly gave me motivation to whoop his.. butt
Please, bring MCMMO back. It added so much depth to the game, and when it was removed many many players quit. One of the best things about the server was mcmmo D:
MCMMO made a huge difference to gameplay for me, because all I did was mine. The mining and excavation stats became a major part of my income and having it removed pretty much stripped the motivation for me to play for more than 15 minutes. I'm just waiting for something new to be added in a Minecraft patch so I can have some new things to explore. Though ECC is going to be the only server for me. The addition or removal of a plugin is not going to drive me away for good.
