    I know people will disagree with this, but if it becomes cheap many people will have access to comparators, and clocks made from these will lag the server 50/50 support.

    I agree. But someone needs to figure out a solution to the hopper problem :/. You know, that one block that is critical to a lot of machines lol.

    But at the same time that argument could be made for repeaters, which are currently easy to obtain and more often used for clocks. I don't see it making that much a difference based on that point (the ease of access to comparators, that is).

    Exactly, my point is that any lag that may be created is already existent, and doesn't seem to be too much a problem as it stands. So arguing that having more access to comparators will cause lag is rather silly.

    I want quartz the block more than the raw quartz... but if quartz in any form is available I will forever be grateful. My modern house builds will look so much better. I believe its an essential building block much like wood. Its perfect. I mean quartz probably was never meant to be rare. please add it back :D

    I think this is an excellent idea. I think the fact that daylight sensors and comparators are worth diamonds is absurd. We really need raw quartz at least somewhere to trade, and it would be an ideal thing to add to the "coming soon" villagers at /warp donor. The blocks would be a good thing as well, but you can make the blocks out of raw quartz. You can't make raw quartz out of blocks. Support.

    Okey, I understand your point, however I beleive that with hoppers being out of action a large amount of farms are out of use, these farms take up the biggest proportion of red stone contraptions people would be building on the server. Also, any other red stone builds would only be operational when someone is near the chunk that it is in. Meaning it would only work if the player on the island is logged in.

    With these two points I really doubt just adding the capability to craft comparators will do anything major. :)

    As people have already said, quartz should be added, it is a fantastic building block, beautiful and you cant really go wrong with it
    I also think that 1 dia for 1 plain quartz block is 1 dia, its absurd
    I think Cyp/crew should add it back to the server

    From just this post alone, I might have thought you were a .org player ;)

    Yes, of course .net has an economy. It is just a barter economy, not one you trade with money. In fact, on .net, the currency has pretty much become grass/iron/diamonds for anything there is to buy. It is a known fact that one cannot buy a diamond with one grass because the player would be losing out on a possible trade. This element of barter constitutes an economy, where everything has a value, whether it be in cold hard cash or equated to an amount of another type of item.

    Very true ;P

    I think I was just trying to put a different perspective on the situation, where economy isn't the primary factor that someone bases an opinion on. For example, adding quartz to buy because it looks nice, dispite it's economical value.

    Regardless, I do think quartz should be added... don't know why it was removed in the first place o_O

    Quartz is nice to build and is used for redstone, but it is very expensive. And I think that the things like comparators and daylight sensors should be sold at the normal /warp trade for very cheap, say, 1 grass for 2 comparators, or 1 grass for 1 daylight sensor. Total support!

    I do support, since more epic looking stones are coming that need the quartz, and the Comparator has a lot of uses, and is getting more.
