    Thanks for pointing that out to me. I have edited my post. I agree with you on that part then.

    AFK pools bypass the 15minute kick. And that is what I would use.

    I agree with iTestify , people will totally go afk, and just gain rewards.Also, they can actually open 2 minecrafts and leave one mc on the skyblock server and continue playing on other servers, as you know you can do that

    so basically the afk wouldn't work at all unless a player doesn't use an afk bypasser.

    Not everyone uses an AFK pool.

    No support. They can earn grass A LOT more easily and will ruin the economy by flooding the market with too much grass. That's like saying you're going to pay someone 100 bucks for watching TV and in the end people will have too much money and then the money becomes worthless cause it has lost all its value, thus destroying the economy. Look at Germany after WWI, so many people had so much money, it became worthless and that it ruined the economy even further.

    Free ranks actually might be nice. But Cypriot would not implement it. Ever

    Excuse me but what the f*** do skyblock and Germany after WW1 have in common? Absolutely nothing.

    This suggestion has nothing to do with hyperinflation which you are referencing, the only reason why this happened is because of the Treaty of Versailles. The terms on the treaty were incredibly harsh on Germany, making them repay debts which they owed - Germany couldn't pay these debts so created a new currency which became worthless due to the amounts of money being printed.

    What does hyperinflation have to do with Pingu's idea about the grass, which he has only suggested to try and improve the server and make it more enjoyable for the newer players.

    I like the suggestion, it's unique and could have the potential to work. However as other people have said, AFK farming is an issue - therefore neutral.

    No Support, sorry.
    The use of alts and AFK farmers are pretty much the reason why, this would lead to ruining the economy.

    I think it would be better to have those suffixes for larger amounts of time. For example:

    [+] - 2 weeks on the server.
    [+] - 1 month on the server.
    [+] - 2 months on the server.
    [+] - 5 months on the server.
    [+] - 8 months on the server.
    [+] - 1 year on the server. (not sure whether the suffixes would go this far or not lol)

    Or something on those lines. I think another suggestion using that would be great, but no support for the res to your ideas sorry.

    Support, if the AFK timer was implemented to prevent people from just sitting there for hours and gaining items.

    It's really sad the server is really coming down to wanting to reward players for activity. I'll give the support though.

    Support!
    First point - It will keep players active, and maybe bring more players to the skyblock community!
    Second point - An AFK kick would be great! But some people can argue that players do make AFK pools. There are some plugins out there that identify AFK pools and kick the user after 5 minutes of using one.

    The down side of this, as said before, are people using alts to get these benefits. If there is some way around this, this suggestion is a definite yes!

    I support having a system such as the one Wostit suggested, but maybe the rewards being the same times as what Pingu suggested but without rewards such as grass or diamonds but instead useless items to donors such as cobble, red stone, stone and any other random items that greenies might need starting off so it would give them an incentive to stay online longer to gain items that wouldn't ruin the economy but would help when starting out,
    Also the rewards wouldn't give out massive amounts of items so it wouldn't prevent sellers of these easily obtained items to not be able to sell them :)
    I support alterations of this suggestion :)

    Also having an AFK kick would reduce the amount of players leaving account afk so it would look like skyblock had a lower player base than it already has and also people can http bypass this with an AFK pool or a hacked client that takes minutes to download and install (if an afk kick gets implemented I'll make a guide on how to download and install a hacked client)

    partial support..
    with the lag it's almost impossible to get 1-2 afk hours without being randomly kicked
