    In my opinion, a reset for the current plotworld is way overdue. If the main plotworld would reset, I say the private worlds should remain intact as they are fairly new.

    So Why?
    Well, even though there's still plenty of space in the world, A TON of the plots are from long-gone players from pre-arcadia time and it makes for a really unpleasant look and feel. A lot of stuff feels "done" and I just feel like we need a fresh start sometime in the near future.

    PROS
    - Nicer, more used world
    - A fresh start, tons of new things to do.
    - More Space

    CONS
    - Tons of pissed off players
    - Loss of all of the current amazing builds.

    We've reset the world before, why not another? Maybe we can offer a world download for the people who want to keep their builds?

    I realize this is actually really out of left field but I'm sure there's people that want it. Even if the reset isn't soon, I say we at least should have one by the end of 2015 for a fresh start in 2016.

    There is no need for this to be honest, there is literally a thread for you to report old plots where the owners haven't been on in years, every warp would have to be removed. Good day to you sir but I don't like this idea too much either, besides, I think everyone would want to keep their current builds and structures.

    I figured I was pretty one-sided on this.

    Actually, one of the main reasons for a reset would be corrupted chunks which we have some signs up within the console. There has been a lot of errors lately that we are unsure where they are coming from. We don't think they are corrupted chunks but if corrupted chunks = bad.

    I'm not saying that we are resetting the world or the chunks are corrupted. I'm just saying that corrupted chunks = bad. I would love to reset the world, but the thing that stinks is that you don't have all the old builds and everything etc. - you can transfer them but you can't find them all and it's just a pain. Eventually, we could possibly make a system to transfer new plots into the new world or something, not sure though.

    This is hard topic to talk about though and I'm glad you got people thinking.

    Is there a possible way people can save plots then?
    Say they wanted to keep their builds they could either type in a command or if needs be copy and paste it into a private world then paste it back to plots?

    HOW BOUT WE GOPY THEM INTO THE PREM WORLD, RESET THE REG PLOT WORLD, THEN PASTE THEM BACK TO THE NORM WORLD except I don't want to reset the plot world so no.

    Not to forget, if you want an empty plot like that, you can just ask the staff to claim it for you.

    Problem- Major world edit, unless you have another way.

    Of course, I will be willing to use my world for some temporary warp holds, so people can paste them back and get their warp back after the reset. Basically, I can use WW as a warp sanctuary

    What we could do is this:
    Have 2 worlds. One for old plots. One for newer plots. Private worlds can be accesable from both worlds.
    That is my idea

    We technically already have that with the premium world, but nobody uses it.

    It is just so empty, it is hard to truly tell.
