nop... it's not a thing...
it was just a dream... :P

You know, since the forum is so varied we could just introduce polls to the forum, would that help? Im fine abandoning my builds (creeperlord is mainly the one maintaining it) but like with sed iron farm, i think its a good idea, maybe a set turnout and result?

I would highly discourage this since... this is.. a raiding.., and griefing server....

and you joined knowing this...

True, plus i have no idea what it takes to run a server and to manage all these opinions.
And i don't wanna play on a server where raiding and griefing isn't allowed cause its boring.
I like it here, thats why i went to the trouble of posting this.
this was just a healthy discussion from a user an admirer of your work!
I understand it's not a good idea.

We make the game easy enough without protecting community grinders.
It kind of defeats the purpose of survival when you there is free OP grinders where you are immune to damage.
Theres no risk invovled we may as well hand it out at spawn.

i think the best way to solve this problems is to prtect em via videos, this way you can still relive its greatness through a memory........im sorry i hve to bother you but here comes @BaronBattleBread

I'm on the no protection side of this argument. Protecting things such as grinders and iron farms would simply screw up the economy and as Dawn said, when we joined we signed up to a griefing pvp server. Avoiding 'baddies' is what gives the game its edge here.

@mithraculus I completely agree with no protection for farms, bases, etc.

However as i read the thread i am wondering if perhaps a safe area could be made specifically for making monuments and statues? An area that all members could choose to build something. No chests.

Perhaps have a competition each month for best build? After each month clear the area?

Random thoughts!

What do others think?

that actually sounds like a lot of fun, could probably get more support with its own thread though

I like the idea of having a building competition and then having the area cleared after. It would be a lot of work for staff to organize though (and they already work so hard)

@CovertRaw its easy with world edit just box in the whole thing do set air and voila

Not that I visit other servers, hhmm, but I have seen square flat areas set aside for individuals to build on a survival server. Using such for sculpture competitions sounds like a nice idea to me. We could also have a chunk house competition.

@TheForgotten20 @CovertRaw its easy with world edit just box in the whole thing do set air and voila

Then we can spend hours setting up dozens of little protection boxes and then adding specific friends to them etc.

no setting up doesnt take that long
use wooden axe, then world edit a building out of wilderness and paste it on a flat land already in protection
bt otherwise the public could help with any processes that we can help with

@TheForgotten20 @CovertRaw its easy with world edit just box in the whole thing do set air and voila

We have no plugins, remember? It would have to be done via vanilla means such as command blocks and some commands

cant we just block protect a massive area so we only have to write the command in once

@TheForgotten20 cant we just block protect a massive area so we only have to write the command in once

No we cant, thats not how it works unless you want everyone to have access to your plot. Which means they can grief it.

Just go to a building server if you want to have your build protected, this is a PVE PVP Vanilla Survival server...
