    Suggestion:
    Keep Snipe Box at spawn, and make a temporary snipe box in the Mining World where users with Fly+ can only fly, and we will not have Spawn lag. Also, the random wandering users that have no clue what is happening most likely will not find their way here or accept the teleportation. This will be kind of like MineRun, but Snipe Box instead.

    Reason:
    AndrewKM asked for a new Snipe Box idea… here is my suggestion.

    Black, I would not tag Andrew unless it's important (also, asking him things like that tends to make him less likely to do them :b).

    I do not think Snipe Box should be exclusive to people with donation features. Minerun isn't exclusive, nor have any of his other silly game-events.

    So this suggestion only favors those with Fly+ and makes it unfair for those without it.

    This isn't exclusive to Fly+ users. It is just a way for less users to be flying around the chests where as they should just be on the ground.

    Or maybe if there was some way to disable fly in a certain area? (Like 200 blocks within snipe box for 15 minutes or the duration of the snipe?)

    Pffft, just disable for the whole mining world. Anyone who's not at the snipe, doesn't want to go to the snipe, and is mining, and has fly, will just have to wait.

    If we're gonna limit fly to fly+, I'd prefer just to turn it off.

    No I mean if there was a way where they could do it in a certain area in the mainworld, for a temp amount of time for a official snipe event.

    We could always use the aether, practically no one goes there anymore. But if someone was flying *extremely likely* then we'd have problems. Andrew could always issue a chat alert "30 seconds, stop flying"

    True, that would work pretty well. But yes, you're right, flying would have to be disabled because normal fly works in the aether.
