1. Update from May 29th, 2023:

    Hello everyone.

    ClarinetPhoenix has decided she will be taking over as owner of EcoCityCraft until the end of June. During this time, we are still open to offers and acquisition requests. However, should one not be presented to our likings, the server will go on indefinitely under ClarinetPhoenix's leadership.

    My role on the other hand will change to developer, and I will only be available a short set amount of time twice per week, for internal up keep / consultations for ClarinetPhoenix and her team.

    I have also begun making plans with ClarinetPhoenix for the survival of EcoCityCraft should anything happen to myself and my health in the future. (Meaning if I get eaten by a dinosaur, Clare will have everything required - servers, files, databases, development, etc to keep the place going. If the dinosaur eats us both though, sorry...)

    More information to come from a soon to be made official announcement by ClarinetPhoenix.

    Once again it's been a pleasure! Although you will rarely ever see me around anymore in both Game & Discord, I will still be doing my best to help ClarinetPhoenix smoothly transition into her new role.

    PS: For those of you who know me quite well, you know this has been a long time coming, and I've been looking to distance myself and leave Minecraft for well into a year now. And even now, during these hard times, I just can't see myself closing what you've grown to love, hence the efforts to get new faces leading us.

    :: Pricing Suggestions ::

    Item/Rank/Feature:
    Melon block

    Data Value:
    103

    Current Price:
    1.75

    Suggested Price:
    2.00
    Brief Description:
    Obtained with a melon sword.

    Open Discussion:
    In order to buy a melon sword you must get 1000 nether stars. you get nether stars by voting, and buying them from other users. If melon swords don't earn more than an eff V unb III axe then there is no point in buying a melon sword. If there is no point in buying a melon sword then people are going to stop voting, people are going to stop buying nether stars and that part of the economy is just gone.

    A melon sword only makes like 3k more than en eff V axe and hour (not a lot of money) if you take that away it would hurt the economy more than help it. If it were to lose #1 economy less people would join the server and it would be harder to keep running. There are probaly hundreds of other reasons to make melons 2.00 this is just one of the best.

    If inflation goes out of control, the price of a melon sword (either through buying netherstars or buying a sword directly) will go up dramatically. With more money in the economy, the price of everything else will go up as well. Therefore, we will end up in this position anyway because $2 (if melons are kept at the previous price) will be worth less than it is now, while also hurting the rest of the economy through inflation. I support the price decrease.

    prices aren't going up much. if this makes the same amount as pumpkin farming there is no reason to get a melon sword and people will stop voting as I said. it is only like an extra 3k an hour I mean 3k an hour that is not much money people spend a good 350k on a melon sword so they can make 3k an hour more than pumpkin farming. There was a reason melons are 2.00 each and if they drop them melons just aren't worth it.
