I understand we cant sell dirt because of island farming but why can we sell grass when its just dirt with grass on top. If I placed it I cant sell it anymore so why do they allow selling of grass? I personally think they shouldn't allow selling of either, but they still allow grass. Post your thoughts and opinions on why or why not they should allow grass to be sold in the comment section.

 

Silktouch on Grass is disabled. So purchased Grass after placement cannot be re-placed. That is why it can be sold and not dirt - this is to prevent island farming.

 

If we allowed it there would be far to many island farmers, the rule was placed to prevent island farming.

 

Also grass blocks are the main currency of the server

 

Dirt can be easily island farmed if it was legal to trade/throw. It also prevents island farming for when moving islands so you can't transfer dirt that was grass to your new one. So once you place grass it's staying on that island.

 

The server used to be much better in the past. The only thing that's better now is /trust, and maybe the island visiting system. It's all a jumbled mess right now. It was a lot more stable in the past. Dirt is just dirt. It shouldn't be illegal, regardless of island farming. If they wanted to stop island farming, they could put a cool down on it, easily.

You're missing the point, though!

If making a new island had a cooldown, buckets would be legal, and so would dirt. None of those items would have restrictions, and all would be find. It's foolish to have dirt illegal on a Skyblock server.

A cooldown time of a day would be perfectly fine. And, with alts, that'd be very tedious and not worthwhile.

 

I understand what your all saying but if dirt is illegal then they shouldn't have ender chests. What is to stop me from taking all my dirt putting it in a friends ender chest then changing my minecraft username and going back in and keep getting a whole bunch of islands and dirt?

 

Getting banned when you are found out is probably the only thing stopping you from doing that .. and the mods loves spying on people

 

Lol yeah I agree. It probably is.

 

Dirt is illegal to trade to prevent /newisland farming.

 

new island farming and also donators who get grass should be allowed to sell their kit for the ignore currency

 

I agree that island farming should and is illegal, but grass is way overpriced and there is no point to using it since most islands are made of stone or wood. Which also brings up a point. If most islands are made of stone and wood y does it matter if people island farm.

 

You can make an infinite amount of wood and cobblestone with the right resources; also, they're sold at /warp grass

 

hunh I shall try /warp grass

 

Dirt is illegal due to island farming. Grass is legal to trade as silk touch is disabled on it meaning that people cannot island farm to obtain it. It is obtained by voting, trading, vote parties and donor kits... Ect. DoctorGlaze32 and other questions pm me ^-^

 

getting tons of dirt from mob arena Average seems to be 2 dirt per minute, so gg, its nice though xD

 

yeah... i was surprised. i mean, dirt from mobarena?

 

No. /newisland exists so if a cobble gen doesn't work or whatever, you can restart. A new player will just move on if they have to wait at all.
