Suggestion/Rant - Slime Blocks

JonnehboiSwag

Alright, putting all that aside, my idea can be possible. It is possible for the plugin-maker to make sure that the slime block contraption thingy isnt going out of bounds. Out of the town and into the wild or out of the plot. Since there is a very large community at meepcraft and if many of us suggest it, I'm sure we can be noticed by the plugin maintainer.

Pay him yourself, not using our money that we donated.

Whos paying who? That person who made that plugin, did it for free and the good of the Minecraft community.

Hard to believe but I basically meant: stop complaining and do it yourself. Talk to the developer if you think that will work. Hell, look for other solutions.

Why is it hard to believe?
You know that Essentials plugins that many servers use?
It was made for free and released for free. The chestshop plugin that meepcraft uses?
Done for free and anyone can download it.
I'm not complaining about anything, I'm just saying, that if more and more of us suggest this, we can be noticed and there will be a higher chance that this change will be made.

To emphasize that people make things for free. You just said that it was hard to believe that the guy made the towny plugin for free.
Just to show you, I'll give you the towny plugin download link:

It's technically possible to wrote a plugin to set boundaries for slime block/piston contraptions, but editing the code for towny is a nightmare. Additionally, while it may be possible to ask individuals to write code for free, a quick search on the bukkit website tells me this (correct me if I'm wrong).

Also, I believe that the town plugin is open-source. In fact, you can download the plugin here.

First of all, you're making it seem like I'm specifically contacting the individual to do it and what not. What I'm trying to say is that you're making it seem like giving the plugin-maker a suggestion isn't normal.
It is open-source. But editing the code and giving the newly made plugin to Meepcraft is not what I had in mind. I was saying that we give the suggestion to the maintainer of the plugin and they might make the change.

What is that article telling you?

My bad, I totally misread that; I see what you're saying now.

I mean, not everybody has to make their own suggestion on the issue page.
They can comment on mine saying how much they like slime blocks. xD

Great, no need for this thread anymore.

Staff signed up for this, it's their job to help. Just saying

You are very much correct about the fact that staff member wouldn't like to fix all slime block griefs. But even more then that, they probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

Someone said earlier that they fixed the problem from the root and that the root was slime blocks themselves. But the real root here, is the actual Towny plugin. If more people started to make the suggestions here, we could really fix the problem at the real root.

Towny plug-"in". Slime blocks are part of minecraft themselves, so the blocks are the root. They will surely be added if the plugin team takes up the suggestion.

I mean if you put it that way, then yes. :p
I guess I didn't think that one through.
Only thing I'm worried about is if the suggestion gets through.

I have an idea!! Alow them in /warp wild but not in any towny worlds

We still want them in the towny worlds. They're awesome things and its a shame that they're going to waste.

But think about it, an entire town griefed for what a flying machine? First off you could fly the machine into someone elses plot, and second staff could refund some money but tons of people would have to leave the town because their houses were destroyed. They can still bounce, and what point is there to a flying machine? Only town staff could acses it if they were to make it for town travel, and a horse would have ten times less risk and be faster. And if some person decides they don't like meep all they have to do is make a flying machine or piston with the slime block to destroy half of a town

No, just no.

Going back to the original problem.. Even in wild they are still a major problem because we don't want contraptions that are able to destroy the world easily. Greifing towns in just one problem.
