in-game Name: Amymone Gender: Female Age(Don't lie!): 21 What do you like doing in Minecraft?: This one is so tricky for me >.> I like the danger aspect of minecraft as well as the creative part, I'm not much into PvP but I'm not afraid to get involved when needed, can be fun. What can you contribute to the Server?: I'm not sure, I have never been on a roleplay server before (although it doesn't seem to be heavily roleplay at this point).. or many other servers in general because I quit minecraft after the server I ran with a friend went down, but I'm starting to miss minecraft so I'm hoping I can find out what I can contribute to this server? (: Are you excited for our future plans? (points down): I am! I have to be a bit sceptical about it until I see it happen though, those are very big plans, it sure would be amazing if you can pull it off. Additional Information you'd like to add: http://www.minecraft.../721256-seinna/ this is my 'primary' minecraftforums account, although I'm using this one now because it is my ingame name.
What do you like doing in Minecraft?: I enjoy equal parts crafting and mining.
What can you contribute to the Server?: I'm good friends with Belkaim and Aleo666, so I'd be assisting in any and all of their expansive projects.
Are you excited for our future plans? (points down): Very. Having seen where things are now, I can't wait for officials builds and updates to flesh out skills and the like more completely.
Additional Information you'd like to add: I finally bought Minecraft after watching friends play this server and I can't wait to join.

Nothing is improving, but meh, that's normal. Bukkit still hasn't released a proper build, so still waiting on them... *sigh* -.-;
Why dont you just take a nice long break and sort everything out? We're still waiting on things to update and you dont have to be so devoted, just take some time off

I shall Type Random Caps because I have a Bad Habit C:
In regards to balancing the prices on stuff with the econ plugin. One way I've seen it done (which prevents all abuse, but isn't so popular... Mostly because it prevents all abuse) is to make it so that EVERYTHING that is crafted with other blocks sells for LESS than the stuff it is crafted from. The only exception to this being items that can be transformed back into the item they were crafted with (iron / gold / diamond blocks).
For example:
Smoothstone? /sell gives you less than you would spend using /buy for cobbles.
Enchanting tables? Worth less than two diamonds, four obsidian, and a book combined
Brewing stand? Worth less than three cobbles and a blaze rod.
And so on, and so on. Although this can skew the economy slightly, it does prevent people from just bulk buying a few items, making stuff with them, and bulk- selling for a profit as a cheap and easy way of making money. Works best if we set the -starting- prices for all items like this, but let them shift slightly (As supply and demand dictate) which can slightly change the relative values, but not by much.
For example, beforehand, during the first trial with econ, a blaze rod could be bought for 300$, but the completed brewing stand (just the rod + 3 cobbles) was worth 9000$. Hence, abused. If the brewing stand starts off worth 250$, people won't be doing that.
This also has the benefit of fostering trade of basic items, instead of people just using them to make things that aren't really of much trade value, purely because /sell nets more money.
theres always a way to abuse the system i dont care how little it is there will be some. so i say eliminate the admins shops or /buy/sell and set up quests where people can undertake to get the more difficult items. and eliminate all money (and start fresh)and make people do jobs for the money. it seems like this would be the simplest way and easiest way to fix the economy. also this way would promote trading with people who have done said quests to get the items that are wanted.

Money was reset the last time the shop was closed, so what money people have now is legit from mobs.
/buy and /sell shop was closed. Permanently as far as I know. We are working towards chest shops, but currently trade is done in person by either item for item, or item for money transfer (via "/econ pay" command)
The simplest way to solve the economy exploitation problems is through a chest shop that players need to set up themselves. Nobody want to be ripped off, so they won't set unfair prices. Is there a plugin that allows selling to player owned signs? If so, when you make the 'I want to buy' sign, do you need to make a maximum amount that you want to buy? That would be perfect: sell signs are limited by the stuff in the chest, buy signs are limited by the amount that the owner wants
