Well this post has be lost in the ecos and i would like to start it back up again, the suggestion of bein able to buy spawn eegs as a donation, would make the server quit a bit more, and findin anamals are next to impissible again, so give some thos because theres a bug that anamals cant come to the end which they do in single player, so give me your thots on thisas you said, this was already discussed but I think Nick ended up probably rejecting it
We currently have no plans of allowing spawn eggs at all.
I'm just going to drop this here from the other spawn egg topic:We currently have no plans of allowing spawn eggs at all.
Quote from: Mr_Mr_Mr$5 for 2 eggs does seem expensive, if I were to buy spawn eggs, I'd spend $5 for 8. The reason why I'd pay $5 for 8 is because someone might kill all of your animals again and I would like backups and not have to spend $5 every single time they get killed.
A deal package that would be nice to have is every mob egg (sheep, cow, pig, wolf, mushroom cow) would be $10 for 4 of each egg.
There is no chicken in there because you can just buy eggs from the market and throw them.
Sounds good - I do quite like this idea.
Keep the suggestions on pricing / quantity coming
I think it would be a pretty cool idea for a donation. Especially since in 1.5 you can rename Spawn Eggs with anvils, it will be alot more promising for users.I would fucking love this. I really hope that with this update, the idea of these spawn eggs for donation is reconsidered. It would bring a new potential feature for enjoyment. I think it would be a lot of fun to be able to get these.(click to show/hide)
I quite like this idea. Have a dog called Jamie <3 or maybe a pig...

Watched all the way to part 9 lol. Aparently there's no part 10 AND IT ENDED WITH A CLIFHANGAR!!! Just like the end of Half Life 2 Episode 2!!!
I'd like to note that Optical no longer makes the rules for the server, the Admins do. If they don't want spawn eggs, it will take some convincing for them to change their minds. I would also note that community opinion doesn't sway them easily.I believe that is the whole point of supporting suggestions like this one.
Except you can't find them in game. Spawn eggs can only come from an admin or op.I know that. I meant finding animals in-game, not the actual spawn eggs.
I have seen this work quite well on another server. I personally wouldn't donate for something I could potentially find in the game, but other people seem to be really like the idea.Well I think now that there is an update, the majority of us want the eggs so that we can make mobs with names, not just for the mob itself, but maybe just a bit. I personally wouldn't pay for something I can find in-game either.

If I were to say right now, "spawn egg donations for everyone!" I would still need to bug optical to add them in as I have no control over the donations at all.
I see where you're coming from. I was only thinking about rules at the time I posted that. Donation rewards would require his intervention.I'd like to note that Optical no longer makes the rules for the server, the Admins do.

But i would definitely not go as far as to say nothing gets done without optical, that statement is pretty much as inaccurate as wyboth's statement.

People can use them to troll other people, such as death traps, for Creepers, skeletons, zombies, etc.Well, if they were smart enough, they wouldn't exactly purchase a creeper spawn egg unless they know what they're doing. Most people are wise enough to start attacking the mob before reading its name :P

Yes, we are rebelling against the server we have spent countless hours working on. You nailed it buddy.I'd like to note that Optical no longer makes the rules for the server, the Admins do.

So... the admins rebellion?

That's why you ensure that no one can get to you mods using a Pstone of any sort.I know right away that not everyone is going to be smart enough to do that.
Off not that's why you te them while donating that a Pstone is suggested.You're missing the point, you can tell people all you want but in the end, you can't force people to place a protection stone. I just think this suggestion has more cons than pros.
Maybe a "purchase at your own risk" warning is needed. maybe with a disclaimer stating "We are not responsible for death of an unprotected mob, etc" or something along those lines.There already is a disclaimer for donations stating no refunds, but that doesn't stop some people.

I think the admins are just trying to make them selves un-popular.Yes, thats obviously it.
The issue here is that, xXJimB0bXx donates for an egg, he spawns it and someone kills it... now xXJimB0bXx just wasted real money and we cant just spawn another because xXJimB0bXx could say he had 20 instead of one cuz he bred them. Seems to me it would cause more issues and complaints than happy people. And yes adding that flag to PS would make the problem less of an issue, but you cant expect people to know every little detail.Technically, it would be xXJimB0bXx's fault because he chose to not protect his animals.
I think it's a good idea but has a lot of issues with it also. I would donate to get eggs for villagers. But also there are dumb people out there who would try to get a refund like 2crzy4uall said.Coal PS and fences= no complaints.
Dude, you're missing the point too.. It doesn't matter if it's xXJimB0bXx's fault or not, he as well as others will probably still complain to a staff member, no matter how many disclaimers you throw at them.I think it's a good idea but has a lot of issues with it also. I would donate to get eggs for villagers. But also there are dumb people out there who would try to get a refund like 2crzy4uall said.Coal PS and fences= no complaints.
As I stated, it's really the player's fault for choosing not to protect their animals.
I think the admins are just trying to make them selves un-popular.Or it could be the fact that optical has to make all donation decisions, we cannot do anything regarding donations. Maybe think before you post next time, it helps, trust me.

Well maybe you should bump up the price by $2 and give them a coal pstone and upon purchase have a statement saying something like so: "you are about to purchase an item that requires protection so your mobs may continue thier lives, coal pstone included."

Still not 100% bulletproof.
Does that still not help the least if anything? Not all the donations are perfect, I mean if you can show me that they are all perfect I'll drop my case.I'm not going to go through all of them, but none of the current donation rewards are items, so none of them can be affected by other players on the server. But the spawn eggs can.

Just my opinion tho
