I'm gonna go in there without anything and punch a guy in full diamond armour to death and steal his stuff, no matter how long it takes. That's gonna be my new Opticraft goal. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
My goal is to catch your head on fire with a flaming arrow Hmm, maybe if I get better at plugin developement I might take a crack at making an open source pvp arena battle plugin once I finish my currently open project. Then again I also have redprotect to code and the player2player trade plugin I thought of a while back.

Good job. I hope you do well at nationals.
However you got 9th out of the 10 people. I don't want to be a downer but know that the national is of course going to be much more competitive, so haul ass and train like you've never trained before until it's time for the triathlon. Train until you have the skill and endurance to smoke whoever got 1st place in the race you got 9th in if you were to do that same race again.

Why not get rid of the old guest world, old guest nether, and old guest end? Just keep the member and new guest worlds. Of course there would be a time delay, and everyone would be warned to get all of their stuff.
Or perhaps the old guest world could be what gets turned into the pvp world. I think that would work well if some of the forests are regenerated, but the griefed mess? Nah, keep that. It gives the old guest world a "war torn" look which I think would give PVP an interesting feel if it was setup in the old guest world. Users with city protection in this world could disable pvp in their zone if they wanted, and protection stones could be given a disable pvp flag that would only disable pvp in the region. This would make the server interesting with pvp. Meanwhile maybe there could be stuff added to the pvp world like Capture the flag, and arenas. And it could all be put into a pvp world so people who just wanted plain pvp that wasn't strictly arena based or CTF based could roam the rest of the world.

I guess there could be a change in the voting system where the diamonds you receive are named "voting diamonds" and they won't sell to the market.
Meanwhile the diamonds you mine are just called diamonds.
Also to rename each "voting diamond" to diamond would require 5xp per diamond, and it would take time. And of course it takes iron to make the anvils required. So I don't think renaming would be an issue, because players would spend more money and time renaming their voting diamonds than they would spend just mining normal diamonds to sell.

Yeah, getting another developer would require finding someone who can be trusted to the point of allowing said person to have a copy of the Opticraft SMP Server Plugin source code. Not only that, but this mega-trusted person has to have special server permissions to be able to test the plugins on the server after doing initial tests on a private server. Oh, and the person has to be a decent programmer.

Nate, its not about being open, its about being realistic. Most suggestions get shot down because they are either stupid, or are not feasible. Its easy to suggest we add something, but its much harder to add something.
The following ideas are feasible, and not really "stupid" but that's kind of a personal opinion: - jetpacks (donor item) - mob spawn eggs (donation item) - pvp - allowing players to look up logblock info on a block (could reduce grief complaints if a player can look up a block to see if they, a friend of theirs, or an actual griefer placed/destroyed the block(s)) - protection flag for animals - lava buckets for furnaces, but still can't place the lava Pretty much all of the above were denied, or ignored to the point where everyone forgot about the idea's existence as the idea slowly got pushed to the bottom of the forums. Sure, there were downsides that were thought up of for the ideas, but a lot of those downsides were things that are likely to not become that big of an issue Example: supposedly there is a glitch allowing players to place lava in laggy server conditions, but is there really going to be that large of a problem with people placing lava to grief? Sure there might be the occasional /helpop for that, but it can be fixed, and things like fire/fire spread are turned off anyways. Personally I don't think it would become a big issue, but that's the main reason why the idea got shot down. The above supports some of our claims that this server is a little closed-minded with new ideas. We just need ideas for improvement, and many of the ideas that were shot down could bring some improvement, and they can always be implemented as an idea in beta that could be taken back away at any moment should it turn out to be bad for real.

Why not just fix voting? Make it so people are required to vote to earn their diamonds instead of just clicking the vote button?

If a pvp flag where to be added to protection stones there would prob need to be one requirement. Have the player freeze up when entering the area and force them to answer a question that pops into their chat: Entering PvP area! do you want to proced? /y or /n. /y being yes I would like to procede which turns on PVP, and /n being no and they are allowed to pass through the area without having PvP on. But this sounds like another plugin would be needed.
wat if i stack a bunch of ps in a line then anyone that walks into that is gonna be spam frozen with msgs as they try to move
also ps just aren't really a large enough area to pvp short of little duels...
There's also the fact that people wouldn't necessarily want their protected bases suddenly becoming PvP zones.
Dunno if it's been mentioned before, but what about having PvP zones work like city protection? This way, someone has to build an arena and apply for a PvP zone. The PvP zone could also protect the zone from griefing as well.
Frobalt, Nick has told me before that if there were going to be any pvp arenas, they would all be under the control of the staff.

That would be neat. Players who want more of a challenge could use this ultra hard game mode. I haven't looked at what the bukkit api holds for allowing plugins to set player gamemodes, but it would probably be as easy as adding an additional command plus one more line of code to do the actual gamemode setting in the opticraft plugin.

Attention!
My farm no longer runs off of gold ingots.
From now on, the farm will give you 90 seconds of access for each OBSIDIAN block inserted. Instead of gold, you use obsidian.
So if you put in 4 obsidian blocks, you will ride for 6 minutes before going to collect your iron.

So, if someone makes the effort to get the exp to rename their diamonds, then wouldn't that be worth the money earned from selling them anyways?
Also, if diamonds were sellable to the market, then the vote reward could come in two forms. It could either come in diamond form, or you could sell the diamonds and get money for your vote reward. I'm sure a lot of newbies would enjoy that.

What if TNT worked under the following conditions:
No block damage
No player/user damage - Mob damage only
Still gives the "blast" shockwave
