Not bad but there is the classic server
We don't have the man power for this, it has been suggested many times, even by me. Not only this but if we were to have another server we would need a pretty big spike in donations.
This is a good idea but surely if its within the smp server it would be using the same staff since we have quite a few staff, if you want the world you'd need to find a way to get the donations up before it happens surely?

Alright so this is basically me playing devil's advocate....that is...all the ways people will probably respond negatively to this whole thing:Wouldn't we need way more manpower for a creative world? The mods would have to constantly bounce from the creative world to all the other worlds. And given that creative is essentially fly hacks and unlimited block placement, there's gonna be a lot of spam, grief, inappropriate structures, and more. While our staff team isn't exactly "small", I don't think they'd all be able to handle these worlds.And trusted+ creative worlds aren't going to happen either because of our equality rules and such ("everyone is equal, we aren't going to give one rank of people stuff because of the rank"). Other than flying and some inaccessable blocks, I really don't see a point in having creative anyways. At this point, there are farms for everything and every item is easily available if you can either farm it or buy it.If you want to build on a creative world, come play on classic then. Sure its heavily outdated with its blocks and no one uses it anymore, but with a big enough server following as we have now, you can always invite people over to play with you. Otherwise, I'd just say stick with what you got now.That's basically what most of the responses will look like. So ya, i agree about most of these but that doesn't mean i don't want a creative world. I just know that it probably won't happen and this topic will just get locked and forgotten.The following are positive points that i also agree with:Positively though, the instant upsides I see out of this is the creative world will potentially bring in a large amount of players through advertising, because most people only play minecraft for creative and minigames servers now. Trust me, I know that's all people care about anymore.We can attempt to bring back some of our classic ops on the job, seeing as their positions are essentially useless at this point and they are most experienced in watching over a creative server/world. Of course, we can always have applications for them like any other smp staff.The argument that things are too much effort, lack of manpower or simply "not gonna happen" are the same arguments that came out of the pvp world suggestions. And that happened. So before we simply say no to something, I'd rather we say maybe. Because if pvp happened, it seems like anything is possible. Opinions change over time and so does the freedom in staffs' schedule. I'd rather the staff thought about the possibility of it happening than it not happening.

He wasn't willing to do it back when he had free time and worked on smp and i highly doubt he would be willing to do it now when he has even less free time.
