    Suggestion:
    Add a paintball plugin to the server as another mini-game when the hub is released!

    Reason:
    I feel it is time for a new mini-game to come out with what the hub has to offer! Paintball would be a great game to add, it will attract new players and be a fun way to earn money like survival games. Rather than having kits for paintball, there should be kill streaks, because in paintball you can have grenades, rocket launchers, airstrikes, mine, and many more things. These can be earned by killing many players in a row! I don't think kits should be added, because look at what it did to SG, now people are making suggestions to give kits to everyone or lessen the power of some kits, and very few non kitters play. This will be great for builders to make money and actually stand a chance.

    Other Information:
    I am aware ECC is an economy server, but there are very few fun ways to make money. The only way that is fun is SG, but that has become a mini-game dominated by kit's, which has lead to less and less people playing it. Players in paintball should have a price of $75 each, so for every kill you get, you get $75, and for every win your team gets, each player on that winning team gets $150. I don't think this is an absurd amount of money, nor too small. These numbers can obviously be changed with what the owner/developer's think.

    A few years ago I used to play on a few COD servers. Its basically the same thing as what you're suggesting in paintball lol. It was really fun and cool and I think that would be a great addition to the hub!

    Please find a different plugin.
    We always require a plugin let us edit it's code. This is because we may add any fixes, or we may add custom additions.

    Saying that it not should be edited, why would anyone bother to play paintball on ECC when is it exactly like every other paintball server? It will just be similar. Uniqueness is something good. Although I do not wish this to be added to the hub, simply because I hate this game, and is why I rated it -1.

    The same claim could be made for just about any minigame added to Ecc. Any minigame added will be similar to some other servers... I could say there is nothing unique about SG, or any other minigame that will be added to the server, BUT they would be unique because they can earn money, and it's on an Economy server, not a minigame server. And why would you want to send players to another server? Instead of sending players to another server to play paintball, bring them here. There is not much unique about this server, that is not already on many other servers (personally I can't think of anything but there may be one or two things). Paintball on Ecc wouldn't be exactly the same as every other server, because it has an economy aspect, where you can make money too. If you personally dislike paintball, that's fine, but to say that it wouldn't be unique or would be the same as any other server is kinda wrong. It would be the equivalent of hunger games but just a different game to play and hopefully have not kits. Accourding to your claim, hunger games on an economy server wouldn't be unique either, and rather than players playing it here, they should go elsewhere and play it.

    I can find something unique about our SG, kits are op af.

    Putting jokes aside, I never said that I like SG either, but I think copying minigames which every other server has would be kind of boring. I just feel like paintball is something not fitting for this server at all, and if we're going to add it atleast not make it exactly like all other servers, cause.. why play here then?

    Lol that was pretty funny about the kits.
    As for playing here, it is kinda boring... I hate to say. The only fun way for me personally to make money was SG, but that has become a game dominated by kits. I feel like for this server to increase the amount of players, we need some fun ways to make money. Mini games will be added, that's for sure. I honestly don't know how to make mini games not like every other servers minigames excluding you can make money from them. The reason to play here though is it will have a bunch of different aspects of other servers added. It will be a mini game server economy server in one. Rather than farming and mining being the dominate ways to make money to rank up, you can have some fun ways through mini games.

    The main argument against this idea that im reading is basically that its unoriginal and the same thing as every other paintball or cod server. While I dont disagree, I dont think it matters and here is why. If people like this mod, then they have to leave the server and play on a different one just to play it. If we had the mod in ECC, then there would be no need to leave the server to play the gamemode that they love and want. Sure maybe we can add a few things and change it up a bit but im all for this idea
