      I have been playing SkyGrid for a while and I have figured out what would be some good updates, or some bad updates.

      Good:
      AN ECONOMY SYSTEM: This is my chief suggestion for Skygrid, because as of right now, there is no visible goal. If things like a store and money were added, it would get people to come back and try to get on /baltop leader boards and things like that. It could also be more interesting to sell things and make machines out of redstone that do more for money. As of right now, the only goal is to get more and more stuff which involves raiding people, which is not nice and I believe bannable.

      Get rid of the emerald system: This system is terrible, and does nothing. Nothing in /shop is worth it in the long run, everyone that has played SkyGrid for a long time will agree on this matter. As I stated above, an economy-based voting reward would be better.

      Make a better claiming system: This is very high up on my list right now, as the Sponge system I have never seen before, but sucks on so many levels. They last a VERY random amount of time, and only protect a random area, so it gets confusing. They also do not protect against TNT and raining water/lava. I have been on many survival servers and seen many systems for claiming, but something more permanent should be created. Something similar to world edit selecting or something like that.

      Time Ranks: This is more of a different suggestion that does not really NEED to happen, I just think it would make this server more interesting. Adding ranks that slowly go up the longer you play. I have only seen this on one other survival server. It makes for a very interesting development that helps Mineverse kinda be the first popular server to bring this to the table. One thing that could reward people in a new ranking system is more block area to claim, and possibly things like tags to add to your names like tags that you can customize and things like that. I have only seen this on one other server that did not have lots of people and now is shut down, so Mineverse would be the first popular server to bring this to the table. This can be separate from the buy-able ranks because they can still have the kits and commands exclusive to them.

      A PVP System: I do not think PVP should be permanantly turned on, but provide a toggle command for it so people can decide when they want to fight. If a toggle command is not able to be added, then leave PVP off-we already have enough mistrust.

      Bad Updates: (I cannot think of many, but this is one.)

      A reset: @FearTheKlowns Once suggested this, but I think it would be very bad as there is currently not very many people that play this, and the "economy" right now is based off of raiding, and that economy right now is very bad but gives a starting place for a new system. Now if this was reset, people would have to try VERY hard to get more money. This is why I think that is bad.

      Support! I agree with adding an economy system and making a better claiming system.

      I have been playing Skygrid semi religiously for around 3 years now. And in that time, I have noticed MANY flaws with the gamemode and some areas where improvement is clearly needed.
      I 100% agree, as it is now, the economy on Skygrid is terrible and I honestly collect emeralds more to say I have a lot rather than to buy items. Nothing in the shop is really even worth paying the amount they are sold for; as they can either be crafted for materials easily found, or not worth it in the first place (Sponges)
      -I believe the shop should contain blocks that you can't obtain throughout the Skygrid world, i.e. sea lanterns, end stone, prismarine, etc. as well as this, you should be able to buy certain blocks in bulk that are usually extremely time consuming and tedious to get normally, such as glowstone, sand, etc.
      Again, I agree completely. The sponge system really is awful. There are countless ways in which you can bypass their protection, and they expire regularly. So either they don't function, or they function very poorly.
      -The golden shovel area claiming system should be implemented to Skygrid. This method of protecting land just makes so much more sense than what we have currently. It is more reliable, less glitchy, and easier to use.
      I honestly don't see the point in this, adding this wouldn't be bad per se. However, it doesn't need to happen in order to keep the gamemode alive.
      Again, kind of unsure about this. While I could see PvP being fun. It could be easily abused with tp traps and ruin the experience for players.
      -If the base protection system undergoes improvement as it should, a way to fix this could be having a setting on claimed parts of your base where you can enable PvP, and doing so would make it where you couldn't teleport other players in that zone, but if they agree to PvP you can teleport them outside of it and they can enter to fight.
      I don't know how I feel about this, a reset really wouldn't be needed if these changes would be implemented.
      -However, I can see some logic in this, if the server was revamped and restarted, it would not only improve the gamemode but give the server's playerbase a revived interest in beginning to play it for a while, and if the changes improved the server the changes could possibly result in Skygrid cultivating it's own dedicated playerbase.

      Overall, I like these suggestions. I'm glad to see Skygrid still has players that wish for it to be fixed and not be forgotten as it seemingly has been. Hopefully, this time something will actually happen.

      Yeah totally bro

      Anything would be better

      -If the base pr
      Overall, good edits to the suggestions. I didn't really NEED the time ranks to be in there, I just thought it would spice up the servers a bit. I also think they should just reset all of the glitched items in skygrid and all of the stuff you cannot get anymore. PVP would be interesting, but I think a toggle idea would be less complex.

      As many of you may know I am DerpicableMe's kid, and I have been playing minecraft for about 6 years now and by my experience from playing with our community. I have felt many things from being raided, cobble stoned, and even false banned from another server, but in this time I have made many achievements mainly on mineverse's opprison, my dad started playing minecraft on opprison and the server was very welcoming to him while he learned to play, then we started making our way up the ranks, we had made many amazing plots including, alleyboy5253, awesomedude14063, derpicableme, jbe123, jbe123 2nd plot. Then opprison reset and all of our hard work was gone, all of our plots with amazing building with everything from water on the side to dub chests full of enchanted leather armour to over 4000 beacons on jbe123's (my cousin's plots) all of our screenshots of good memories were gone after our computer got a virus and now we have nothing to remember of the good opprison, All I can save is sometimes change can be good and sometimes it can be bad, in this case these changes are good (except for the reset, terrible idea) but the reset on opprison, I didn't like it maybe someone did but all of our hard work is gone it is the same thing as ruining someones hard achievements, from my experience though the majority of people did not like it. 1eef5be505dfd626bf4842a4069e2275.png

      Why a reset should never happen, and I love that picture.
