As you all know sand is a fairly hard item to get as its illegal to trade, so I thought there could be a new kit, /kit sand that would give you a certain amount of sand (maybe 20 or so) per day. The kit could be another 10$ kit that would join /kit wood and /kit cobble in the donor shop. I think a lot of people would buy this kit as sand does benefit players and there islands... I would certainly donate for this kit if it was implemented Thanks - fred5678
I like this idea I have too much sand though 15 a day is too much for me, but some players find a use for glass so yeah.
Lol I'm making a desert but its also useful for cactus farms and other such things and it would be useful to many...
I don't know if this will be implemented but I don't think it is a good idea and we already have quite a few kits I would just leave it at that
15 would be fine. 100 donors get 15 a day, and 50 gets 10 every 2 days, as well as a lot of other items. considering that this would be just sand, i think that this seems pretty well balanced. Oh and support
Thanks for all the support but im a 250$ donor and for some reason i get next to nothing in sand and i also know alot of you want this implimented :3
I think this is actually a pretty good idea. Especially since (as Freddo mentioned at the start) it is hard for players to get and is illegal to give out or trade. This would allow people obtain glass and glass panes easier as well. Of course, this would obviously have be a kit you'd have to pay for.
I wasn't going to comment, but I do hate disagree comments It's not as simple, you need to first log into the server, likely they dont have a nice GUI frontend that comes with mchostingpro, so it'll be a Telnet into VIM, using only unix command line. Then they'll have to test it to make sure it works, meaning they'll have to take the server down, and hold it off-line for a while. Even going as quickly as you can, that's at least 5 minutes work there. Then they have to add it to the website's donate button, meaning they have to repeat the same process above except in HTML, FTP it up to the website host which is different from the server host. Then they have to update buycraft, make sure it's supported, test it in game again to make sure that buycraft automatically credits the kit, meaning they'll have to take the server offline again and hold it offline. That's the scenario where everything works perfectly on the first go. Whats the most time consuming is then dealing with all the complaints "I bought xx kit but I didn't get it". And what is even more time consuming than that is trying to figure out who legitly obtained sand and who didn't - to my knowledge mods can't access who bought which kits, meaning they'd have to put in a request to ask Cyp if Player xx bought a sand kit to explain why a non-donor might have 3 stacks of sand in their inventory, imagine the support that's required all that. And the list goes on.
Sand Generators are possible in 1.8 again, so I don't think this kit would be super popular after it is released.
Your point is still invalid. They can use FileZilla and that is what I use. It is a very easy FTP that you downnload onto your computer. Put in the port, username and address. As far as the buycraft (you stated) you click "Add Package". That takes two seconds. Once Merks or Crew is in-game, all they have to do is /essentials reload. BAM! The kit is in-game working. The buycraft now has a sand kit and he starts to make moneu. Your point is invailid. As to the fact of not getting the kit, Crew and Cyp talk a lot. Crew recieves emails from his paypal and if someone buys something, he can check. The people are also supposed to post a screenshot of there reciept so he knows if it is true. Thanks for he inspiration, I added a sand kit onto my server now in less then ten minutes. No, I wasn't using MCPro or Multicraft for this.
First off, you need to learn to spell or use a spell checker. And secondly, you haven't addressed anything I've actually mentioned I've said my piece, take it or leave it, bottom line is it isn't as simple. Your estimate suddenly went from 5 seconds to 10 minutes within the space of a few posts, I rest my case. Thirdly, we're getting off topic. If you wish to discuss this further please send me a PM or start a new thread.
