    Suggestion: Replace the 4 pork for voting with 1 string or 1 coal

    Reason: I have noticed that, progressively, voting
    for the server has fluctuated in value (to the voter).
    Instead of decreasing pork and voting rewards($250->$200, but still $1000 total), why not
    give players materials to make a useful tool to get their own food,
    as opposed to the ~melon economy~? I admit, I have come
    online, on occasion, only to vote, store the pork-chops, and leave.
    The same principle is used by many tycoons/presidents with lottery,
    but that depends on chance. Giving pork means one of two things:

    a) the pork will be immediately sold to server, or
    b) the pork will be stored/eaten later.

    4 pork at 45 cents each is worth $1.80, why not give a $0.50 string
    instead? Meat is only native to the mining world, and is very hard to
    come across. Rather than supplying a-near infinite supply of instant
    food, why not make people work for their food? I thought this server was
    EcoCityCraft: Major Hardcore Economy Server. Free food isn't
    a common characteristic of anything "hardcore".

    Any Other Information: If not string, coal is a viable alternative
    as well, since it is used for a variety of purposes including cooking
    and making building materials.

    Makes sense. We have an economy big on farming foods. Why give them more? Good idea.
