Ugly Sky structures

Ugly Sky Castles/Cities
I remember there being an (unspoken) rule in Classic , that you weren't allowed to build sky castles. This was because it would leave an immense shadow underneath it, messing up the shading of the buildings on the ground.
I believe that this rule should be added to the smp server. I have seen many ugly places where people start making a
flat land in the sky:
Some examples:
-http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/3370/64/3320/-2/1/0
-http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/-3741/64/5585/-3/0/0
I don't see why people would want to make these kind of buildings. Maybe because it protects them from griefers?
Or maybe because they are just too lazy to clear the land?
Either way, it makes very annoying and ugly structures. If you walk underneath them you'll be harrased by an army of creepers, zombies and skeletons, who happily keep on spawning in the dark.
Also, it makes ugly black spots on the live map that distract your attention.
I'm suggesting that this should be added as a rules: NO UGLY SKY STRUCTURES
It really makes the beautifull landscape look so much worse.

While I agree that they really are silly. And not at all attractive underneath, however, I don't think we should be limiting the types of builds people can make.
CaptainXV:
I am not talking about limiting the type of builds people can make. What I am referring to are buildings that you can perfectly make on land. If you want to make something like the new spawn or a castle in clouds, that's perfectly fine because it makes sense. But building a flat land in the sky and start building on top of that is just too silly.

i agree that they look pretty bad, but what would we do with all of the existing sky structures? we can't just tell people to rip down their established builds.
CaptainXV:
Ofcourse there's no need to destroy already build structures. That's not what I want at all. Just make it a guideline from now on.
