Support this is a good idea

 

I'm just saying for you (not for me) that a normal user want generally play a skyblock to start by nothing and upgrading step by step, obtaining new resources and new building blocks, with the aim of a big and beautifull island! In this server you start with nothing, obtains new resources in a really long time (I trade "£$%"&"$ only for grass, not negotiable) and these are worthless in the economy of the server: what does it mean? New users abandon the server after a short time!
From my island I can see 4 island and they all abandoned, just started!

Make an assumption: I finally got some tradeable thing, a diamond for example! Do you think I'll buy 4 quartz stairs, too few to build something decent, or I'll try to make it grow?
All islands I join were made for 95% by cobblestone, I don't think is a good and "funny thing" for me I love building.

Economy isn't the only component of the server, but , according to me, is really important: It isn't balanced, very soon nothing will have value, rich will stay rich and poor will continue to have nothing! You "force" people who want to have fun to buy donor package! And this, what does it mean? No economy, donors stop to buy package (no money for the forum) and new people leave the server!

You told "make friends": I can't tpa anyone unless donor pack (I've to share my island with everyone) and you want I make friends? I don't think is the way!

 

Are you serious?

Definition of 'Inflation'

The rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services is rising, and, subsequently, purchasing power is falling. Central banks attempt to stop severe inflation, along with severe deflation, in an attempt to keep the excessive growth of prices to a minimum.
​

It's a game, you right, but not for this reason you have to do bad things! You can think about the thing you're going to do!

 

That's not the only reason prices are decreasing, I do kinda agree that people are saying it is lower than it should be as someone was trying to trade 15 diamonds for 1 diamond but,

is one of the reasons as well.

Most of the other rares have items to take them out of the economy, for example

Spawners - Used to make mob grinders/farms
Iron - Usually the items are used for decor such as anvils, rails, iron doors, iron blocks, iron pressure plates, pistons, minecarts, iron tools, iron armor, and also used to power beacons.
Gold - Usually used to decorate islands and power beacons. Also used to make rails gold pressure plates
Grass - Usually used to decorate islands, once they're placed it's now dirt as when you pick it up it will become dirt so no trading that.
Quartz - Usually used to decorate islands
Redstone - Used to decorate islands and redstone contraptions (redstone wire, pistons, repeaters, cooparators, redstone lamps, redstone torches, dispensers, droppers)
Beacons - Usually used to decorate islands and give potion effects to island

As for Diamonds - Just diamond tools and armor, along with jukeboxes and enchantment tables, but usually people just ask for enchants from donor100's+ but usually people don't like to use their diamonds for diamond armor besides boots if they're people with /god.

 

Bumping this.

 

Support, but I would also like a way to get diamond from villagers, I'm only a 50 donor so I don't exactly have a way to get diamonds easily and so it would help.

 

You can sell double chests of things like food and stone for lots of grass or a diamond or two. they aren't unobtainable to greenbeans. They are harder to get though.

 

Support. Larry's idea was pretty good to get diamonds back up, 1 diamond for 45 grass would get it back up there using villagers, that way other ppl can only pay more than 45 grass each diamond otherwise it is really easy to just go to the villager and get more for the diamond and no one wants that.

 

No, if non donors get advantages, why donate? (I donated for the advantages, this is my opinion, please dont disagree).

So if non-donors got ores, then alot of people would chargeback because sooner or later, non donors will have more advantages than donors. Like I said, this is my opinion, dont disagree please

 

I've already supported, but I would like to support again. Diamonds are losing value too quickly, and something should be done about it.

 

I changed it btw. I suppose it would be a bad idea.

 

Even though this is a bit late I would still like to support.

 

Necro much.

 

I seriously don't see any problems with this idea. Only benefits. People say 'it's our fault' but why don't we introduce this and solve the problems. .

 

Support

 

1 question, why would that change the econemy, the grass econemy would fall, donor 100+ 's still want to sell their diamonds. They see that at /warp villgaer or something a diamond is sold for 32 grass, so they are going to sell 1 for 30 grass. If diamond trade would be illegal it would be possible BUT then: how do you get grass quick? Because selling diamonds is illegal this idea would crash the WHOLE econemy.
No support from me

 

i support like for adding the items which values 1-4 diamods from the players, for example, 4-5 diamonds for a mob spawner, this will convince the buyer to buy and he dont need to like stay in chat and keep typing, this is like speed up which costs few diamonds, this will convince many people to start wasting their diamonds, and you can do same thing with enchanting table so on so furth

 

An easy, albeit probably unpopular way to improve the rarity of diamonds would be to remove diamond picks from the kits. Forcing donors to use their kit diamonds on tools would improve the economy from a diamond inflation perspective.

I haven't bothered to read through the previous posts to see if this was suggested already.
