    So, I've been thinking about a few things that this server is missing, and the most important one is: more variety.
    Which is why I, Crawling the Magnificent, is hereby presenting,

    Custom Enchants
    As the name suggests, these are enchants you can get along with vanilla enchants. They can only be for armor and tools. Most often, they are obtained with tokens, but they can also be acquired from enchanting an item normally in a table. They offer more options doing various activities, and to be honest, they are very fun, and can be controlled easily so they do not become overpowered.

    Mentioned before, most servers rely on a form of "tokens" to let players get these special enchantments on items. Tokens are usually an item not normally found on a server, but in this case, I suggest we use grass, as it would be consistent and add another use for it.

    The ( most popular, and stable ) plugin for this, uses signs. An example would be this: Imgur
    ( View of enchants, some custom, some vanilla. )
    If the enchant you are adding onto your item is already there, it add's another level to it.

    I feel you've got a decent grasp on how this plugin works, so now I'll move on to suggesting some enchants that would be especially useful for Skyblock:
    ( Note: If they seem OP, that's because they are; but they will end up costing an large amount of grass, so it is balanced. )

    North Wind - Can be added on boots. Gives the wearer Jump Boost 2 and Resistance 1.

    Green Thumb - Can be added on tools. Has a chance to replant a crop which has been harvested without using the parent item. For example, if a full grown wheat is harvested, a seed will appear in it's place without placing one.

    Precision Blade - Can be added on pickaxes and axes. On pickaxes, has a chance to double stone related drops. On axes, has a chance to double wood related drops. It's like a fortune for different blocks.

    Indigestion - Can be added onto chest pieces. Every so often, hunger would be restored without consuming any food.

    Vacuum - Can be added onto tools & weapons. Blocks broken / mobs slain will automatically have their drops transferred to your inventory.

    Those are only some I can list. I'm absolutely sure that this wonderful community can think of more enchantments to add to the fun. These however, do not come with the plugin as default, as many don't. Though, I have seen servers with dozens of custom enchants, so ( from my perspective; correct me if I'm wrong ) it seems relatively easy.

    Pros

    • Would add a lot more excitement and a new twist on enchanting,
    • Is virtually abuse-proof, as the plugin itself is very professional,
    • Another use for grass,
    • It would encourage the purchase of grass & grass related donations,
    • Another magnificent reason to join the server.
    Cons
    • Controversial in some situations, as are many suggestions,
    • Not enough cons.
    That's about all I've got to say. I really believe this could help the server out, and add an interesting turn on the server. I appreciate all feedback, negative or positive, and I can't stress how much it means to me that you've read this far.

    Thank you,

    ~ Chris / Crawling

    Things like balancing: custom enchants cannot be too cheap or to op. Custom enchants may not be compatible with our enchanting plugin.

    This would be really OP with the /enchant all command.
    No support

    It's not compatible with that command, and if it was, I wouldn't have suggested this. Sorry for the misunderstanding, maybe you have feedback bearing a different vibe now that you know this?

    Support. Did you get this idea from Op Prison on Mineverse?

    Not particularly, no. I do not play on either of those, but a lot of server's have custom enchants. Thank you for the support though :)
