    As most of you "experienced" or "active" members probably know, there are about 3 really useful /visit's on the .net server that a lot of new people do not know that would make a lot of questions easier.

    Ok ok, i will get to the point. the 3 /visit's are

    /Visit Skyshop (SUPER useful)

    /Visit SkyBlockHelp (The best one for questions)

    /Visit Mingo_x (Mob Grinder)


    So, what i am saying is to add these 3 or more or maybe even just 2 onto somthing like this, 2016-10-09_00.05.21.png
    But instead make it like this, 2016-10-09_00.08.06.png
    Sorry for my nametag xD. i think this could be really useful for new players or even people who dont know where to buy good things and do stuff. thank you :heart: give meh feed back :heart:333

    i mean that would be nice but it would exclude others who also have shops etc.

    Yes but also, people already know that most of these places are pretty good so who could fight with that but another thing could be, every week 3 people with that catocory get chosen to be announced there.

    Neat! Thanks for the alert Emerald! But i think you must have meant to type included, not concluded. We are not quite yet done with /visit skyblockhelp.


    You are most kind, but I must agree with Krissy when she said

    I think it would be enough to just advertise /visit skyblockhelp and /visit mingo_x. Mingo offers his island freely to all players after all and no one else can compare to the sheer number of spawners he has.

    No. Horrible suggestion if you want to help newbies. You are getting these shops more and more players while other shops that newcomers have would be not even noticed one bit. It's already bad enough. It's a good suggestion, but it's just going to bring the server to a demise even more.

    There are other ways to make income, but shops are a huge thing especially because theres a guide at /warp grass to make one, which makes newbies of course think that that is how they make money.

    Eh, explain "who could fight with that". Didn't understand that part. Krissy just fought with that?

    I agree with Krissy on this. It wouldn't really be fair on the other players who already have shops or some that could potentially build a better shop in the future.
    So I've had a look at this, and some of it is useful, yet most of it you can find elsewhere at other warps such as /warp rules, /warp stafflist, /warp noobspawn, /warp illegal. And for the commands section of the island, you can easily do /help or do /buy to check what commands donors get.
    This wouldn't be fair on other players with mob grinders.

    It is a good idea, but no support.

    I really do hope you take a closer look around /visit skyblockhelp

    The point is that all the warps are not in 1 place for new players to see clearly. The command /warps cannot be accessed by non donor players. For instance, how can new players be expected to go to /warp illegal for information if they don't know it even exists?

    /Help lists lots of donor commands. Again, the point is to help new non donor players. How is a new player supposed to know he or she is not allowed to use these commands featured from the first page of /help: /back, /enchant, /enderchest, /fly, and /god ?

    /Help does not even include /newisland, /trust, /coop, /vote, nor /buy. The first 3 commands are essential for playing on this server and the last 2 commands are essential for advancing this server directly.

    There is still a lot of very important information necessary to play on this server that is not readily available at a warp or on the forums. Here is specialized knowledge we compiled at /visit skyblockhelp:
    • Actual reasons for playing on this server
    • Server Basics such as:
      • Compatible Minecraft Versions
      • Server Seed
      • Disabled Hoppers
      • Disabled Animal Breeding
      • Disabled natural mob spawning
      • Clear lag description
    • New island tutorial
      • Maximum Island Size
      • Cobble Generator
      • Infinite Water Source
      • Obsidian to Lava Bucket
    • Farming tutorial
    • All Non Donor Commands
    • An explanation of Trust vs Coop
    • Color Codes
    • Lockette Tutorial
    • Tradeshop Tutorial
    • Server Currency
    • Tips and Methods to Earn Grass Blocks
    • Everything About Spawners:
      • How to get a mob spawner
      • How to change a mob spawner
      • Spawner mechanics
      • How to spawn each available mob type
      • How to spawn Slimes
      • How to tame wolves and ocelots
      • Mob Grinder Tips
    If you really do not believe that this knowledge is fundamental to playing on this server, then I can only conclude that you do not pay attention to chat and are out of touch with the needs of new players.

    hey I got tagged.

    It would be pretty unfair for the shop and the grinder to be advertised, people with these also could be put down for thinking theirs isn't good enough.
