    Support! I think it would be nice to be able to buy and sell buckets, since it no longer plays a big part in island farming preventions.

    At this point it really doesn't play a part in preventing it at all...

    Giving a noob a lava bucket is so much easier than having to give them 3 iron and an obsidian and then telling them and walking them through the mechanics of the server, this would save me up to 5 or 10 minutes per player I end up helping out. It's great to think that even though we were all in their place once, suggestions like these continuously make it easier to help players start out, as well as helping players that are starting out.

    Support.

    There is a ridiculous amount of buckets on peoples island anyways and the amount of time I would save being able to even just drop them is a lot. This helps a lot not just with helping new players with new buckets but for clearing large water sources or lava sources by sharing buckets with people rather than having to constantly chest transfer. They'd have to little no value as it would be more worth it to farm the sand then a bucket every island. Don't see why they should still be illegal if sand was made legal

    Wanted to reiterate my support for this suggestion. It's become increasingly obvious how little of an effect having buckets being non-tradeable has on the community and economy. Since the addition of croppers on eco, iron prices have dropped significantly and are now worth even less than before. There is no reason to have them illegal as they're unbelievably cheap to craft. Myself alone has had to respond loads of new players asking for buckets over the past few weeks. Even on skyblock 3 Iron is Equivalent to 1 Grass which is also super cheap. It's annoying having to explain to players why they're illegal and why you can't just give them back and forth to each other

    Support,

    Some players get confused as to why bucket trading is illegal and to be fair they’ve got a point. Yes, in the earlier days maybe it was necessary for them to be illegal to trade. However, nowadays when 3-4 iron is worth 1 grass there is no need to keep them illegal to trade. As said in the suggestion, island farming, becomes pointless.

    This is long overdue. Nobody would island farm to get buckets anyways. They’re lower in quantity when you create a new island (only 1) and sand is now legal. I believe you get 2-3 with every island

    This has heaps of support but hasn't moved or been updated in ages, full support, buckets being illegal really prevents nothing, dirt is the main culprit in island farming

    Crew just confirmed that we'll make buckets tradeable. The thread will be moved & closed once the change has been implemented.
