There's currently no way to have other designed capes without a custom/modified client such as optifine, we're not stealing anything because Mojang doesn't personally sell them and the capes only exist on the server itself. I don't see an issue if a server allows players to wear/obtain the capes a different way whereas the only other way would be to attend an event that many people can't. Thanks for the feedback, we lowered the prices on them. Regarding lag, Mineverse is ran across 15 dedicated servers with the fastest hardware available, we are always looking into ways to reduce it, even if it doesn't feel like it. Minecraft itself is laggy and resource intensive, network hiccups and occasional lag spikes or overall lag happens from time to time and depends on a lot of factors.
Have you even read the thread? The purpose is to inform others that buying a cape for the exact same amount of money that a universal cape would be is not worth it.
Not that it's anyone's personal business but the purchasers and you, I hope those who bought a cape before the price change were reimbursed or at least compensated for the $10 or possibly higher transaction on the item without possible knowledge of a permanent change.
Like I said, just want to inform people that it isn't worth it. So helping people save money is bad here?
