I know people here have different views on this issue. It depends on how affected they are. Just imagine if you are in that player's frustration of losing his months work. If there is a choice like paying the server then thats a glimmer of hope. The time we all spend building in the server is the important thing for us. And i already mentioned this, It would be awesome if we can continue this to 1.9.

@Crafty. Then that arrangement is perfectly fine for me. My last days activity in my base is actually terraforming. The way you describe it is the way I also imagine it to be. Not an easy task but saves some of the big builders here a lot of time and thought on how to work on their builds.

I also suggest instead of the payment make it like a VIP thing but instead of the usual VIP incentives, its more of a base relocation incentive. Like instead of base reloc VIP sort of thing. Just sugar coating it I guess.
