    I shall quote;
    And /help lists most of the commands used apart from the few that you mentioned. If I'm completely honest, I think it should be either announced about /warp rules, make /warps available to non-donors or signed about it at spawn.

    /newisland is mentioned at /spawn, when a player joins the server, they would see it. The very basic of Skyblock is mentioned at /spawn. Additionally, when you join the server, it tells you about /newisland, merged mobs, voting. There is an announcement that tells you about /trust, /rewards, shop.skyblock.net (linked in announcement), /warp grass, /warp tradeshop, /newisland replace, obsidian - lava, forums (linked), /home, /servers, /economy, /spawn, /lock & /unlock, ways of getting grass, /visit.
    From this list + /warp information if something was done about warps, the only other needed info needed would be;
    • Compatible Minecraft Versions
    • Server Seed
    • Disabled Hoppers
    • Disabled Animal Breeding
    • Disabled natural mob spawning
    • Clear lag description
      • Maximum Island Size
      • Infinite Water Source
      • Farming tutorial
      • Color Codes
      • Lockette Tutorial
      • Everything About Spawners
    I agree that something should be included about this list. ^^

    As a non-donor, these are the commands on the first page of help. The ones you have mentioned are on the /help page when you get that type of donor.

    Some things I agree with you on, some things I do not. It's my opinion and your opinion, after all.

    Why is it a good idea? That's no reasoning

    So here is the promised 5 paragraph essay... ish.
    Let's look at each of the 3 visits. First, we have /visit skyshop, the largest shop in skyblock AFAIK. I had visited there within 15 minutes of writing this. This visit is good because players can buy basically everything cheap. The problem is that all the profit goes to very few people, namely The Cyk753 and some others. This is a private enterprise and not endorsed by Cyp or Crew. I don't think this one should be featured in an announcement.

    Next, we have /visit SkyBlockHelp. It is also a private thing, but one that does not derive any profit or even take donations. The only tradeshop is in the tutorial. It has comprehensive explanations about anything you could want to know and some things that I didn't know, like Dough and Emerald being mods? It is not endorsed by Cyp but I think that if he were to inspect it he would endorse it or even make it a /warp help. This one should be announced in chat.

    Lastly, we have /visit Mingo_x, a public mob grinder. I don't have much experience with it because I liked the one at /visit jimsb (Jimalexblack) much better. It does not derive profit, but would put down others who have mob grinders. I would say all donors should buy some alts and collab on grinders but I don't have a choice about that. Since this is a private thing WITH OTHER PLACES LIKE IT that are already warps, I don't think this should be featured.

    I am trying to tell you that the above information is already on signs at /visit skyblockhelp!

    My bad about the /help. I did not know it adjusted to different players. But it is still missing /newisland, /trust, /coop, /vote, and /buy

    Screenies of all pages of /help below

    Although this does seem like a good idea, it's not fair to anyone else who wants to create something like these warps. I'm going to have to say no support, although I do love these warps and I think they deserve more popularity.

    No support. It's basically excluding anyone else who has shops/help islands/etc.

    All of these visits are very useful for new and familiar players, but it excludes every else that tries really hard on their visits.

    As other people have said, I don't think it would be fair to others with their own visits.

    Maybe if it was changed every week or so, similar to a raffle?

    If the SkyShop idea was implemented, it would be very unfair for other players with a shop.

    thank you but, after reading all of the feedback (thanks because i cant really see it that way until people show me) i think that boss and krissy are right because it would be unfair to other people. thank you guys :heart:

    tbh thats the only helpful thing :D

    Honestly you can just ask people what are the rules are..its simple as that and they are willing to help you (unless they are f****ts), plus there are TONS of shops people own so you can get whatever you want at a price thats right for you..in addition it is critical for the economy (apart from donors who are bringing down the price of diamonds cause cuz theres soo many of them).

    Yea, I remember having to wait for those announcements to cycle through to the one I needed but missed. That was super inconvenient. Why make other players wait for it too? /Warp tradeshop has no info whatsoever to make a tradeshop. That mini tutorial has been gone for quite a long while now. Right click on an obsidian block stopped working weeks ago too.


    Who else do you know that currently has a dedicated help island? Genuinely curious.

    why would there need to be announcements in chat? if you want mingos grinder, skyshop and skyblockhelp to get more people just say in chat /visit skyblockhelp or /visit Mingo_x or something.
