This thread was made to get the silktouch spawner plugin added for staff members like @bananaman11223 to get. There are many players on this server including myself that have spawners on their islands with nothing to do. Ether they placed it accidentally and don't want to break it to remove it, or it was placed for an egg just for that egg not to work on the spawner. Giving a mod like @bananaman11223 the perks of the silktouch spawner plugin (which is already in use on factions) would allow him to harvest and return spawners to players that want them moved to another area. There can be restrictions or limits to amount of time it can be done per player a day, or the mod can choose if they deserve to have there spawners moved. Im not really sure how a limiting system would work if there even will be one. I just know that many players would appreciate haveing there useless spawners dug up and returned to them. Thank you for reading and I hope the staff and skyblock community agree and support this thread. @BurningDesire @SwagMasterLogen @C4_4U_00 @Archangel175 @mind_trap @melgrath @EliVdd @DaBaws19 @sjenginator @Pile_of_Butts @Skylanderdavid @Halex00 @Sarah Burgess
Why not just give that to players? I mean we pay real money for these spawners. A player should be able to pick them up and move them as he pleases. If a player has to reset his island, then he would have to either just lose them as things are currently set, or wait for an admin. Players should be able to silk touch them.
I was thinking about that myself, but they really don't add plugins much in the way of player lists, but recently @bananaman11223 has gotten perks that no other mod has ever had in the history of this skyblock server. So I fell it would be more likely for a staff member to get it instead of players getting it.
I got into it with the old head mod about adding this for players but they refused as players steal and it would cause a huge cluster. I don't agree. I think players should have it but I don't see that happening. The admins are against it.
I don't see why not give it to the players, too. Sometimes, no mods are on when there's already a lot of chaos and such. Giving silk touch to the players would benefit, rather than just to the mods. Then the moderators will be even more busy than they usually are.
"I got into it with the old head mod about adding this for players but they refused as players steal and it would cause a huge cluster." ~bananaman11223. Think about it like this, if you had just bought a spawner (spending your own real money on it) and some player on your island gets mad at you and steals it, your going to demand another one along with the players ban. That can easily be abused to get free spawners and the staff does not want that.
Call me blunt if you like but I believe that the reason silk touch plugin isn't installed is because when you can correct your mistakes with a simple silk touch pickaxe, the server isn't making money from selling new spawners. I don't buy the excuse that it was made this way to prevent the theft of the spawners. If you trust the wrong people it is your fault and you got none to blame but you. A thief can steal anything from your island and it is certain that nothing is going to happen to him unless you caught him on the act and have very specific proofs to report, why the spawners should have special treatment? Personally I have destroyed over 10 spawners because I changed my designs or because the spawn eggs didn't worked on them.
You really need to know why the spawners should be treated differently? They are the only block on the server that you will have to pay real money for, unlike any other item witch is collected IG only.
mind_trap I've destroyed also like 15 spawners thats why i also want that silktocuh thing. But you are tight that then a thief can steal everything easely!
All the spawners I have I bought them with ig money. Anyway my point is that it is not the server's responsibility to protect you from the people you add on your island. If someone wants to troll you he can simply destroy it and your money is lost again, or you can change your mind and decide that it is better to sell it than have it, destroy it yourself and then claim that someone else did it. Are the destroyed spawners going to be refunded too? Also there have been incidents of chest hacking, are the spawners that were stolen going to be refunded? Maybe but only to those who bought them directly from the shop and thus not for everyone else. The protection is not an excuse for the limitation of liberty, as a famous man said long ago, Those Who Sacrifice Liberty For Security Deserve Neither.
A majority of the server (unlike you) cant afford to just go and buy another spawner with IGM. I can agree with you in the fact of spawners with refunding purposes, which is why one has not been done yet. But I personally feel that if players knew their spawners were not stuck in one spot after being placed it would influence them to buy some themselves or buy more from shops causing more to be bought from the server anyways.
