Proposed smp changes

how am i attacking you ?

Nothing_:
I think this is a bad idea personally, a lot of the remaining players come here for the builds they have made in the past,  and to have some fun playing with their friends. Community has and always will be one of the driving factors as to why this server is still here, and I fear that a complete wipe of SMP would just divide the community further. People want to make changes to attract new players and I'm all for that, but if the cost of new players is losing some of our oldest members and friends is it really worth it?

2. From personal experience, player shops can be difficult to promote. Largely because it can be confusing to set them up. If you do this, I strongly, strongly recommend making an easily accessible video, wiki, and/or something similar to assist players in the setup.

Furthermore, I think some serious research and input by someone well versed in economies (that means some college study) should be consulted if possible. This will help in the long-term.

Theres a plugin called HyperConomy. I've not played with it too much, mostly cause I didn't understand it, but maybe it would be perfect for Opti. Check it out. (I am not sure about at bugs or incompatibilities)

3. 'Modes'? Please explain further. Having WG regions scattered throughout the map, alerting players upon entry, maybe. Full on worldwide PvP? No. I joined Opticraft for the relaxing, close community aspect. PvP ruins this.

4. Depends on how you execute this. Could be a huge success, or it could be a fall-flat failure.

5. Same as above.

Pvp modes would be done on pre defined maps, no world wide pvp, no pvp zones. Just pre set up arenas.

Better. Optional is best.

When I found out that the idea of the server being wiped was even CONSIDERED I was outraged to say the least.  All the great things people have built and all of the W.I.P.'s just gone because all the rich players who have everything are bored...are you kidding me? I remember back in the day the community was thriving, we had 30 people on at a time and everyone was either gathering or selling stuff on trade chat. Yeah I wish we could go back to those days, but I seriously doubt a complete reset will fix the issue. It's more probable that the reset would anger more people then it would replenish others will's to play on the server again. For example, my friend lolakittygreen and I have been building a specific thing for ALL four of the years we've been playing, if the reset were to occur we would be done with not only Opticraft, but Minecraft.

Thank you for reading what I had to say, have a nice day.

Your opinion is yours, but if it helps, we're hoping to try to at least get a downloadable version of the map, so you two could set up a small server together with it and continue building (if that is what ends up happening). I don't think any of us really want to completely delete the maps without letting people access them somehow.
