    As far as I am aware, hoppers on .NET are disabled due to the fact that they can be used to grief or for some reason like that. That is completely understandable but some redstone contraptions and farming designs require hoppers for the design.

    Hoppers are extremely useful for making clocks for redstone contraptions and making automatic filling systems for farms such as cactus farms.

    Also, I went to a Mod's island and saw that he has hoppers on the island and made me think, maybe donors or players with clean records could have them?

    There must be a way to some how restrict them and prevent them from being used to grief. The day that hoppers are usable on the server would make me cry in joy literally because I have had to cancel countless amounts of designs due to them being not available.

    A reply from an admin/mod would be greatly appreciated :)

    I'm pretty sure that hoppers are never coming back. A while ago I saw a thread about a plugin that disabled the placing of hoppers next to privates chests. That was a perfect fix, and it wasn't implemented, so I don't really think that we are going to be seeing hoppers.

    The problem with checking for clean records is that it doesn't mean that the people with good records won't do something bad

    Couldn't agree more. I'm not sure what the official reason is for keeping hoppers disabled, but the fact that they can be used to grief isn't: as the video demonstrated clearly. Cyp's response at the time was simply "I don't have time to watch the video", implying another undisclosed reason for keeping them disabled.

    The fact that some players have hoppers still enabled on their island doesn't mean that they are special, it just means that hoppers were placed before they were disabled, where they are still allowed to function.

    To sum up:

    1) Hoppers canNOT be used to grief anymore, please REENABLE them
    2) Hopper Minecarts CAN be used to grief, please DISABLE them

    then why is it that .org has no issues with hoppers enabled but .net has a problem with it? in the end they are both the same sort of server and the people on it make no difference.
    seriously, whats the difference between .net and org that lets org have hoppers and not net?

    .net is a vanilla version of skyblock - not many plugins .org is an economy skyblock - more plugins and technical stuffs

    .net is usually full when it comes to people, if all the islands had world lock, we would lag like crap.

    Skywards is raidng, the point of .net is meant to be vanilla skyblock, so minimal plugins and no currency.

    No, .net is not a raiding server. Any raiding will result in a bann. Skywars.com is a pvp server, .net is vanilla.
