Maybe we can merge it with this current trello card

I don't know about ranked just because I like a challenge and this is pretty op. If we give it to certain ranks then the eco will be super inflated for new players who can get anything they want relatively easy. If it is given to everyone it will balance itself out even with the inflation. I don't know how exactly how to explain it. I see this happening especially in mesas. It should probably exclude gold.
Since we have mcmmo it fits on our server and it adds just one more element of interest for players to enjoy but I don't know if it fits in with the current level of difficulty the server has. We turned off the multiplier in mcmmo this is a bit like that imo.
If this is not an item I'm a strong -1 for many reasons. You don't have to work for it and you may not want to have it on at all time.
Meepcraft is dominated by players who are not in endgame, when you cut out time for working you cut out time spent on the server which lowers our player count. People come back after resets and usually the harder the reset the longer they stay for so that they can build their town or pay for their head collection or have a chest of diamond blocks but once that is accomplished it gets boring again.
I guess this sounds mostly negative but I'm actually not against the idea. It will be interesting to see.

I've used it quite a bit, and it isn't overpowered when mining. Veins normally consist of a maximum of eight blocks, so it's just faster. And, it's more risky, because there are times where there's lava right beneath the ores that you can't see. Another thing to point out is the plugin has a command to toggle it whenever you want to.
The level of difficulty right now isn't the issue that's present, but it's not very much fun to sit and mine for hours on end hoping to afford a new pickaxe. Quite the contrary, resets only work if you can keep people interested. If it mined out enormous tunnels automatically, yea, it'd be too easy, but it only breaks more veins. Most new players don't stay for a lot of reasons, and one of those is you need to play for hours upon hours to even get the most basic of materials. It should be fun to come on and play. So yes, this makes things slightly easier, but only in time saving, not giving things away or something of the sort.
It should cost a lot so players can't boost the speed by which they earn money from using the a vein miner pickaxe, but instead use it as a more fun way to acquire goods from mining.

It's supposed to make work less tedious and time consuming, so more players can spend less time grinding and more time having fun.
Course, course, and a stone pickaxe would still not be able to break a diamond ore, right? (Or at least it wont drop anything upon breaking like it normally would)
As long as there was a way to restrict the lore to the rank, that'd be sweet

No, all pickaxes still function according to their vanilla mechanics. So it can break diamond ore with a stone package, but instead you've lost the entire vein instead of one ore.
