- Change to a player defined protection field system
Not necessary, pstones are simple and effective.

They're effective, but not simple. They don't work particularly well with name changes, they break after time (Making extra effort for staff) and most importantly they rely on money. This means that poorer players are at higher risk of being griefed, and are unable to claim interesting or useful things - richer players often claim large swathes of biomes for their personal use, whereas poorer players can't.

Although there are many points listed in the OP only one stands out to me and that is the complete wipe of the server. I have to say i am 100% completely in favour of this idea and see it is a shame that this has been crossed off. I am very much with MR on this when i say that i reached the end game in MC. I want something new and fresh and fun to do, i dont want to run around an old and messed up world where i feel like i have seen it all before, frankly walking round some parts of the world makes me feel sad because it looks so run down. Change is a scary thing but this is change for the better, to make us feel like Opticraft again. To entice old members to come back and interact with everyone, offer new challenges and in turn create new friendships with people which will im sure lead to some epic builds. I have always stuck around here for the community because you guys are what makes this place great, i find it really disheartening that we have completely dismissed the idea of a wipe just because a few people do not want to change and embrace what could be an even better server and offer up an even more enjoyable experience.
Its not as if you would be losing what you worked for! They would be available to download so you can continue to work with each other.
Please i would urge people to re-consider this decision and hopefully this idea could be posed once again.

Perhaps we shouldn't cross out the idea of a server wipe just yet due to further support.
I also changed my mind on the whole worlds being there as an archive in favor of the original idea of the old worlds simply being up for download.

I agree. I'm also in favor of wiping the map and staring fresh. Even though I myself am working on a few projects, I think this would be a great way to start off fresh, especially if we go for the changes to the economy
Maybe as a compromise some of the builds on the server could be moved to the new map. Criteria for that could be something like: 1-Player who owns the build must still be active 2-Must be at least X by X by X large 3- Must have previously obtained a project/city protection.
Probably could be improved a bit, but that's just and idea of something that might work
