Title: 5 Suggestions
Post by: SalsaInABowl on July 05, 2012, 11:19:11 pm
Guess who's finally back on the suggestions board.

Suggestion #1. Trusted reward!

Do you all remember getting 500$ and a coal ps for becoming a member? Me too. Felt nice.
Remember when you got Trusted and received a lapis ps and 3000$? Oh yeah. NO REWARD.

So there you have it. You have a reward for getting member rank, why not Trusted?

Pretty simple right? Good, because suggestions 2-5 are gonna probably be pretty long.

Getting trusted is an accomplishment all on its own. It doesnt need another reward. If we add that, we'll have more people begging for trusted, and it completely ruins the point of the trusted rank.

I think placing water on its own is a pretty big reward.

I agree with Alicia and bhoughton on this one. The reward is the privilege of being trusted!

The trusted rank isn't just a rank. It means that you are trusted by the higher authority staff and that is all it means, it doesn't mean you need any extra rewards. The reward is knowing you can be trusted. Also, placing water isn't a reward, it just means if you're trusted, you can be trusted with the ability to place water and not to use the water to grief.

Do you all remember getting 500$ and a coal ps for becoming a member? Me too. Felt nice.
Nope, I didn't get $500 or a coal ps, because I was already signed up on the forums in 2010. The same should happen to people that already have trusted, if this was added.

I have to agree, the perks of being a trusted is it's own reward.  The stuff you get for becoming a member is to help you get established in the world.  By the time you get trusted you shouldn't need help.

We have a member world, and it's great. For a more private place, it would be great of we could just have a place like this.

Suggestion #2: Trusted Area!

I'm not saying a trusted world. I'm saying, close off an area to us trusted. Dude, we need a break from those below us asking us to be trusted! Just a small portion would be fine, and it would be great. Just being honest here though, this would bring requests to have a third /home, but we can resolve this once it's done.

Not a super great idea. But this is the suggestions board right?

Stop looking for extra things for trusted. The reason this wont work is exactly the same as the reason more money wont work.

(First, I would like to say I forgot the fourth and fifth suggestion so yeah cutting this short.)

Suggestion #3:

So there have been requests for a member Nether. I support this idea, but I think I know something better.

How about a Member End? I think it's time for a new one because I can personally remember EXACTLY the entire End dimension, and most of it is already built in. How about it?

Hm... The member end sounds like a great idea, but a member nether, like some people said, will be looted in a matter of seconds due to the number of members here.

I personally think you should of put all these posts in one thread.
A members end isn't really a must have. You can always expand on the current end, thus making it limitless.

Also. Those who are guest or member, but not trusted are not below you. You should not look at them as lowed people on the totem pole. Just not as well known. Once you start viewing others as less important then yourself you will start treating them as if you are better yourself. And that can only cause harm.
Try to remember what it was like when you were a guest. How would you have felt if one of the trusted just left and wouldn't deal with you simply because you were a lower rank then he was at the time.

Also, This is the general discussion board

Merged to 1. Prevent topic spam, and 2. Because there is no need for a different topic when the suggestion isn't any different than the other, I think the posts should be added into one post.

I do not think we need any of these.
Reason #1:
               Trusteds are the same as members and guests. We are not better. The only reason we can place water is because of the amount of time, effort and kindness we put into this server. The mods+ trust us and it makes us feel good. We don't need a reward. Personally, I feel that if you really want a Trusted effect, you should have to PAY 500$ and GIVE a coal/lapis/diamond ps. (Not agreeing, just saying that you know, Trusted is REALLY worth it to me.)
Reason #2:
                Like some others said, the areas would be looted like crazy.
Reason #3:
                You are starting to think of yourself as sort of a mod? Not good for future advice. And also, if you want a Trusted+ area, start a build in the end and get alot of Trusteds to support you. Then ps it and allow all Trusteds who want access. So yep, just some suggestions.

Snape you are a good friend, but sometimes.... dude, YOU CRAAAZZYY!

Below us? Us as Trusteds does NOT mean we are any better or "higher" than anyone else. It means that we are trusted by the moderators and operators to place water and set an example for other players. Don't for one second think that makes as "better" than any other player.

This is true...  Guests, Members, and Trusted are all the same "rank".  The only difference is the level of trust you have on the server.  As a guest, you are just checking things out to see if you actually want to play here.  As a member you've decided that you want to play here, but it doesn't make you a higher "rank" than a guest.  As a trusted you've earned the trust of the staff and are now capable of using materials that are deemed hazardous to be given to just anyone, but that doesn't mean your "rank" is any higher than a member or guest.  If you're looking for a "rank", all three are classified as "Players".

Ranks go in this order;

PLAYERS -> Moderators -> Operators -> Admins -> Owner .... 

(Developer is in there somewhere too, but nobody knows where his powers end.  *LOL*)

We are not "better" than any other person and there are ALOT nicer people than some Trusteds, I can now see. The Trusted rank is a privilege, not a bragging right or a "prestine" rank, you are as equal as any other Player, I wish you could see that.

Sometimes, only a few people think, just because thEy are trusted, it makes them better. Not referring to anyone I know, but some tend to do that.

Post by: Xeadin on July 14, 2012, 07:41:39 am
Anybody that thinks they are higher than anyone else of the same or similar 'rank' is just asking for trouble.

I'm no better than anyone else here. The only thing that makes me different from everyone else is the amount of privileges I have and that I am particularly good with words. That's it.

There should be no reason for anybody to think higher than anyone else.
