Massive Griefing, becomes unbearable!!!!

Well it would only be the house and farm, wouldn't give them a backyard or anything, if they have friends they could just build next door.
But I see that issue.

I hadn't realized that.  I had imagined it as a protection stone set to the dimensions of the city that we could use some command to add people too.  If that's not possible then yea, that would be a large hassle.  Probably too large to be honest if there were a lot of cities set up this way.  Hell even just a couple would be a pain in the arse.  So unless you could make it something that the city owners could handle I guess it wouldn't really be feasible.

I had an idea about protection stones that might not help the truly huge projects but might would help with projects like walls and such.

What if the person who placed the protection stone could customize it's dimensions?  Now before you say something, I mean that they could customize the dimensions within the same max amount of area covered. Now my math isn't amazing here, but I'll give it a try...

Say you have a 3 wide by 4 high block wall around your home/compound that's say... 100 blocks long.  You could with the current system, buy 10 11x11x11(1331 blocks) sized protection stones to protect it. But let's say you can modify those placed P. Stones dimensions protect any sized area less than or equal to 1331 blocks total. You could then edit them to cover a 5x6x44 (1320 blocks) therefore only needing roughly 3 stones! (If the wall was straight of course, which it is for simplicity's sake).

This could also be useful for creations like pixel art, since they're usually extremely tall but very thin, dramatically decreasing the amount of stones needed to protect them.

Now like I said, this system wouldn't really help with massive buildings and such, but they might could be used to protect just the outside of such structures to prevent entry.

This should just involve some permissions tweaks in the code as oppose to constant moderator help. But keep in mind, their would have to be a way to keep each P. Stone type from going past it's max area coverage when edited. I don't code much, but I figured it might be feasible.

Just my 2 cents.

Sephir1:
hmm some other thought, what about the "claim land" system, could it be more useful then the ps stones?!?!

tobs you have a point i will wait and see how the things roll on, im sure opti will come up with something sooner or later =)

If u put a p stone, it means u find ur build valuable enough to protect.
If you can't afford it, mine for ores,earn some money to buy pstone before building
