    Andrewkm, this one is just for your consideration:

    A precious moment would be:

    5 minutes of weather...

    5 minutes of unlimited view distance ...

    a few handplaced mobs in the mainworld just to make things interesting ...


    I know we can't have these things all the time and it would mess up my precious game-environment. But every so often, I would like a moment when I can actually see my whole city, or farm, or mega-structure all in one piece.

    I would never ask to combine a bad thunderstorm with unlimited view distance even for 5 minutes. ECC is just too big for that.

    I do know that you are on in the wee morning hours and there are like only 50 users online.

    Can't you give us a few precious moments here and there ??

    They will allow things like awesome screen-shots and better footage for YouTube videos.

    Besides, a big-time world-edit will cause lag as but has no benefit other than to the player who is getting the edit. Ramdisk Saving...

    5 minutes of weather or 5 minutes of unlimited view distance won't break the bank and everyone will appreciate those precious moments even though there may be some minor lag (which I doubt will happen off peak when only die-hard players like myself are online)

    ;)

    Actually, I kinda agree with this. I am interested in making videos and once I have a better computer, I'll be doing it all the time. (Not ones with commentary, things more like trailers and stuff.) This will provide much better quality, not having to worry about the world loading strangely.

    Problem is though that even 5 minutes of something like proper chunk loading can cause more than enough problems as it is. Server lag, etc... You'd be surprised how much lag is caused by that. I can see why this likely won't happen. As well, there are people who hate weather, and if it happens more than once for 5 minutes, people will start complaining. Even just once, and they come to their town, full of snow...

    NO matter how awesome this suggestion is, it's just very impractical.
