Suggestions for the Factions Server

[Handeril]

These are some long-term plugins that I've had on my server that work great, so I got an idea, why not suggest them for HHGN?

BasicCraft- Allows crafting of VIP items and Non-vip items, can be configured to ONLY Vips. Could be a very encouraging perk, works for 1.7.4!

Spawner GUI- VERY useful plugin, you can limit what can be spawned, set A PRICE for changing the mob type, and limit who can. (Can remove the pain in the rear /spawner ) It opens a GUI for selecting mobs vs using a command! Works for 1.7.4!

http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/spawnergui/

SpawnerCraft- allows the crafting of SPAWN EGGS and SPAWNERS! Can be configured to VIPs only! Works for 1.7.4!

http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/sp ... rmissions/

I only suggest these due to how dependent VIPs are on the VIP Shop, and this can lessen the amount of items in the shop, and lessen the dependence. Spawner GUI can make changing spawners so much easier!

I had some more ideas

I also had another idea, why don't we add a Admin Shop where anyone can sell things or buy things.

(Prices may be more encouraging to buy from or sell to other players!)

Because there's a noticeable economical depression in the Factions Server economy, and that just makes it harder for people to do anything regarding money... :|

(I do realize you can just dig or mine, etc., but the economy of HHG hasn't recovered since the HUB was added. Plus, when you add an Admin Shop, that allows people to sell what no-one wants and/or too commonplace items and that clears up some junk, for some money! It also encourages people to use the job system to add on to their wealth!) :mrgreen:

(They may also be selfish, and sell what only they don't need!)

Though, unlike the VIP Shop, there won't be OP items for sale. It'll just be a shop for non-vips, or just anyone, to sell their unneeded possessions or obtain new possessions. (That aren't OP!)

We could also add a VIP Selling Area, in VIP World, where we can sell things that are OP and Non-OP, and we don't need...

The prices in the VIP Selling area are also better per division:

Members and tributes- Slightly better than normal Admin Shop

Career, Sponser, and GameMaker - Even better than Member/Tribute

MockingJay/Jr. Mod - Pretty good selling rates!

Due to this, people will also want to buy ranks to get the better prices, and it also adds another OP perk for all of them.

Another thing to address, mansions....

I see it everyday, a VIP questioning the shortage/absence of available mansions, I know about Zain's project to put the deserted ones on resale, but what happens when those are filled with active VIPs?

I had an idea on how to prevent issues with that awhile back:

Building Plots, you set up a buyable plot of land in VIP World in which people can build on, the bigger the plot, the larger it costs, this allows people to build their own structures in VIP World just like way back when in good ole' PlotWorld, and have someplace to call home in the VIP World.

If you like/dislike these ideas, speak up, so I may make modifications to these ideas. (And just to know your thoughts on it!)

A few more ideas

I had a small idea, why not add spies? They basically have ordinary J-Mod perms AND perms to ban, tempban, kick, and use the socialspy.

(The rank will look like just an ordinary J-Mod!)

And if abused, they'll lose the perms, and that will be about it.

This will catch more hackers/other rulebreakers and make the server a little less crime-ridden...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We should also add a Factions Central World, basically a spawn of which all of the Factions stuff is tied in to!

(a.k.a HShop, Casino, VIP World, etc.)

This will allow us to modify regular fac world's spawn so we can stop all the spawn killing....

(About that, can we add a SafeZone? A place where players are safe from damage, and it'll be big enough were players can't camp there!)

We should also add a 2nd Fac World so that we can:

1. Have a 1.7 world

2. Have a not-so-exhausted world

And 3. Give people a choice of which world to set up their base in

Another Idea, add MobArena to factions, it would allow us to use our rewards.

(And you can fix MA Glitch again to prevent that exploit from being used again!)

Finally, remove Lockette from Factions World! It's making raids pointless, and it's FACTIONS WORLD!

(Also, add CombatLog, it's beginning to aggravate people that everyone just PVP Logs...)

(You can also configure it where it kills people for PVP Logging!)

I like the spawner GUI the best but that's my opinion

 

[Handeril]

I like all these ideas, it would give HHGN more features to reel people in with.

If other servers succeed with it, HHGN can too.

 

[Masterfireheart]

Yes. I want to come back to HHG and see this...

 

[Handeril]

I'd like to see these ideas added to HHGN's fac server, they're pretty good ideas and could be very beneficial to encouraging a wider range of people to donate.

(Because some will see better opportunities to be rich as a VIP than a Non-VIP!)


Plus, the economy issue is getting quite noticeable, VIP went from usually having 100K to having 10K usually... (That's a shocking change!) :shock: :?

The plugins, more perks, makes some more people see the point of having VIP
