    I have heard that certain ranks aren't getting a lot for what they payed and they want more perks to be implemented.

    I suggest we add another big perk to some rank. The rank will be left to the staff to decide, but today, my job is to show you my first class idea on a new perk.

    Chairs is a really cool, simple, and lag free perk. Simply shift and right click onto a stair block. The plugin will act as if you are sitting in a minecart, and will appear as you are sitting on a stair block.

    An EXAMPLE Plugin: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/chairsreloaded/
    (I think this plugin also allows config. to certain players and if the stairs need signs on the sides to be able to sit in it)

    That's just an example plugin I found, but its Meep's choice to implement it however they want. This plugin is really simple, and it will benefit by simply looking cool. Lets say you want to talk about a town or pwarp, and you tpa your friend over to your house. Just sit on the bench in your living room, and talk about stuff. Your interior designing will finally be put to a use, not just for decor!

    Before you say this idea is useless, think about other perks like /hat and /suicide. They aren't exactly "useful" either. I mean think about it for a second. With chairs, you can go afk in style, write a book professionally with a little table in front of you, talk to others on a dining table, sit on roofs looking up at the stars, or simply look sexy. But on a more serious note, certain ranks will feel that they have payed for a reason worth their money.

    Also, we could just add this perk for everyone and make it a "Universal MeepCraft Thing". Or just give it to a certain rank+. Idk, I'm just typing down whatever I'm thinking at the moment. Up to staff to decide.

    Here is an example video for those that still need an explanation or simply want more information --



    This is also a brilliant example of what we could do in order to make it more beneficial.

    I find this to be a simple, yet good feature to be implemented, as a perk for ranks or a "Universal Meepcraft Thing". +1

    I would definitly love to see chairs, as I've had some experience with this plugin on another server. But I don't think this is really a donor perk, it should be everyone because who would want to make a restourent where only some people can sit?

    This is a suggestion we did talk about, and ultimately decided that while sitting is cool, it doesn't do much else. With some max limit on how many plugins we can install to a server, it was thought that maybe perks that allowed more functionality would be best.

    Explain how is /hat more useful and deserves to be on the server more than this.

    +1 for the chairs idea

    Hat is already implementated, so we gave hat no consideration in this suggestion. We simply asked if sitting is that great of a thing, the consensus was not really, let's find something that lets them do things other than sit :)

    Superb point. Honestly, chairs doesn't provide much functionality besides looking cool. But on the other hand, things like /hat and /suicide aren't that useful either. Think about it, this is a plugin that would truly make Meepcraft unique as well. Not many other servers have this and it would definitely contribute to having more players in the future. And regarding the issue with a limited amount of plugins, Chairs doesn't really create lag. It simply converts the GUI into a minecart so it can let a player sit. Ultimately however, I agree with you and in the end, I'm very anxious to see what staff decide to do with this idea.

    I mean, the suggestion is here, and we're going to reconsider it. It's not a bad idea either, it's great. But there is just a limitation of the plugins we can add, because having the plugins in inherently causes lag too.

    Then have the players take a vote on the plugins they want most.

    Also, /hat is just part of Essentials. It's implemented as a side effect of essentials.

    What's the limit to the amount of Plugins you guys can have and what is the current amount already? With List if possible.

    There would be no way Fuzzlr or Onis would let me list off the plugins, nor do I know the specifics, nor do I think it's public information. :) I was just explaining, the more we put in to run, the less well overall everything runs.
