    Hey people,

    an idea @AZZA and I had some time ago: we should (optionally) move private worlds to another server that is still chat linked to creative skyblock etc. What this would allow: less lag on creative and private worlds, different worldedit plugin for the private world server (much larger edits, much faster, higher limits e.g. brush sphere with radius of 50), increase worldedit limits on creative as we have less lag to worry about. Also access control for private worlds could be come a lot more fine grained in the future then, like for example: who can build, who can enter, who can world edit etc.

    Futhermore, we had the idea to rent out those worlds for $5 a month: You only temporarily need a world? It's just $5 for those 30 days. After that, the world will be archived and eventually deleted, if you do not use it.

    Anyway, just some general ideas @AZZA and I had floating around in our heads. Opinions?

    PS: If you do not want your world to be relocated, you will probably not be affected, but won't be able to harness the benefits as well.

    Seems like a pretty cool idea. I mean it would be cooler if I actually had money but shhh

    Okay, I like this idea, but I have a few suggestions/ideas/etc

    1. Will tab still be combined? It's really annoying with the SB/S/C Chat, you can never see who's on.
    2. Will command blocks be enabled? Maybe they can be for world Owners only?
    3. Logblock?
    4. Maybe all the features like plot flags?

    1. I hope, it probably will.
    2. lmao no that's a no
    3. too much data to handle all the worlds
    4. that's a given
    (i've got staff expertise i know how this works)

    This. Additionally, the tab being combined is actually harder than it looks so I'll have to see.

    Of course there will be grief protection. You can be trusted (can build), added (can view) or nothing of those, then you're locked out.

    You can add * to a group; this means 'all people'.

    (I know this is a sidetrack, but I want to post this.)

    Why is it that when I see you post, then there are several occasions, when you do something like this? Yes, maybe you are just joking, but then again, is the person able to see you are joking? And maybe the person did do something, the person should not have done to start with. However, people aren't perfect, actually, some people - like myself - are far from perfect. Further more, the people already know they might have done something, they should not have done, and they might also regret it, and does not want people do remind them of whatever they did.

    You need an extra "-" too in "-cough". ^.^

    And he is wrong. Don't forget the fact that's he's wrong and has tried to point out and prove that's he's right multiple times... But he's still wrong

    LOVE THE IDEA! Except one thing, you should be able to do like a $75 option, for a private server forever.

    So it costs more than a world, and it would be very nice to have some command block commands (like summon, tp, tell, say) that would only affect people on the private server. And plot flag type things. Also, if you did @ before a chat message it should only go to people in your private server.

    I know this may not happen, but I'd rather be able to pay a one-time fee than a monthly thing. Perhaps 2 options, one this monthly paying, and one with a one-time fee. (Which pays for what BCSN would get in 15 months, but at once. That would really help the server)

    I have very good news: I have managed using black magic aka coding to convince PlotSquared to see a private world as an infinitely large plot. What this means:
    You can manage your private world as if it were a plot. A few commands (such as download and clear) have naturally been blocked, but other than that it appears to work smoothly. Once we get the spawn setup, we will be ready to go!
