    Suggestion: Remove the command of /sell hand

    Reason: This is an economy based server. Why is it even possible that materials can be sold to an invisible force and then have money generated? Any and all trades should be dealt within the player base. If I want to sell my produce, I should have to find a person to buy said produce.

    Any Other Information: If this change were to be implemented, it would most likely cause a massive change in the way money is valued. The price of everything would shift, and therefore, massive balancing would be needed to server ranks.

    No please.

    Tbh, this would pretty much destroy a large portion of the economy... This won't happen. -1

    BAD IDEA. This would cause massive amounts of inconvenience to miners and farmers, especially farmers. You farm a bunch of pumpkins and nobody wants to buy them because they don't have a use for them. As for miners, max fortune picks would make no money unless you managed to sell the fortuned ores, and everyone would use silk touch and sell to station 70 because of lack of demand for mining treasure.

    tl;dr Bad Idea. Come on, this is worse than "Give Everyone 1 trillion melon swords"

    The fact that most of the economy relies on the selling of materials to the server when this is an economy server is bad sign.

    It's the farmers' fault for focusing on farming an entity that the population has no purpose for. In a real economy, you focus on the production of things that the average person would want to buy, not something they don't need / want.

    Definitely disagree... There's an economy for mining, tools, spawnshops, etc. This would, however, kill farming totally (everyone does /sell hand there) and would be detrimental to builders as well - Much of a new players income relies on selling stuff to the server.

    We've had /sell hand since the server opened... Why fix something that's not broken? I have no reason to believe that this will ever happen.

    This is what we have had for 5 years. It won't change.
