why tho? no one wants to grind for 10 hours a day on this server lol.
~ @PseudoGod

Ah yes, because tping back and forth between /warp farming and /home farm is NOT grindy at all

+1 more than enough reasoning has been given in OP and following comments

Huge -1. People have put time and energy into making auto farms around their base inorder to sell or trade for emeralds. Taking this aspect out will simply kill the tens of hours of time spent making these. Auto farming is a part of the game and has already been nearly nerfed to the floor. Taking this out seems nearly as if the people that hate this just dont want to make a farm big enough that makes profit.

Another aspect as you said is the autofarming. Afk farming is illegal and can be hard to check. However, if someone has been on for an excess of hours and there has been entities, that should be a given obvious to check if they are truly afk with a machine. Not doing so basicly allows the player to gain free money from /warp farming as this is what this fourm is about. SO, I would say simple check ups on players who are online for a plently of time should fix this problem with no issues.

My problem isn't players using afk farms because I don't think many do go afk at their auto-farms. My problem are areas such as "/pwarp Hornemans" (both of them), "/pwarp Large", and the latest Psuedocorp (possibly still available at "/pwarp a") which decrease the server performance. It's important to understand that players have poured time into creating these auto-farms and that time shouldn't be wasted but players shouldn't be incentivized to mass produce items the player base doesn't need. To balance the time spent with these farms and the need to stop the future creation of more of these farms, I suggest we do as @smk suggested and remove "/wrap Farming" but only after giving players a warning of a month or two. That gives enough time for those players to receive a return on the farms from "/warp Farming" while also allowing auto-farms to be no longer usable as a source of meebles being newly introduced into the economy.I forgot to note that I am in no way against players which use pwarps or town spaces to help keep automatic-farms running. I think those tactics make since as the server is currently set up. Instead, I feel it is the server staff's responsibility to de-incentivize automatic-farms.

-1 terrible idea. Ruins the auto farms and cactus farms that people have spend many hours into

~ @PseudoGod

I mention them because I focus a lot on pwarps. So much so that I only realized about a week ago that you were actually banned.

If your drive is for emeralds to trade, this suggestion changes nothing.

I’ve hated /warp farming as an idea since the first day it was implemented because having people create mass farms then adding butt loads of meebles slowly into the economy with no effort at all after building such farms is stupid.

This, instead, rewards players for actually playing the game instead of just afking the great big farms they have.

And yes, I’ve spent plenty of time on my own autofarms. I still think this is the best way for farming to work.
