• Less Grief and Cobble/Dirt Structures to Public Realms.

The only reason this would be true is because there would be less new players playing on the server.

I should have said

• Less (amount over time compared to current rate) Grief and Cobble/Dirt Structures to Public Realms

[ColdF3ar]

Hm, this is tricky. At first I thought, hell no. But thinking about it, its deeper than this.

On one hand, the lack of grief will be coming from the fact that new players will simply be giving up. As it is its still hard to find a place to start, without the teleporter, most new players will stop trying all together.

On the other hand, when I started, I didn't even know about the teleporter. I just started to run until I found a place empty enough and there is a good value in this. Plus this helps weed out less serious players and griefers.

Overall, I'd have to say yes for somewhat selfish reasons. This will be a great way to weed out nubs and keep land cleaner. However i'm going to miss easy access to less dirty areas for resources.

I voted no. We already have grief protection, it's called the realm system.

I got my start with the help of the teleporter, and honestly I don't think I would have stuck around without the quick easy access to public land. We already hear enough of "where do I build" -type chatter from the noobs who can't read. No need to make it more difficult on the ones that can.

Roobean, when you joined you didn't have to walk 1000 blocks to reach public land.

[Ratta237]

Wait, what's a suggetion?

[DGannon]

they can go via the Subway

They would need to have already been to a public realm and mined iron to make a minecart.

I'm sure all the vets who have a ridiculous amount of resources would happily supply minecarts if the teleporter were removed

Roobean, when you joined you didn't have to walk 1000 blocks to reach public land.

It was for me.
I walked directly along the Spawn Road, yes there may have been realms to the either side which were public but I didn't want them, I wanted a realm which was part of the Spawn Road.

Plus I didn't even mention the 1000 block in this Topic.

But still, this right here is correct:

I chose the North Road (which is now the West), and when I got to the End of it, I made Home.
Because MineRealm was youngish with that Map, it was only 1000 blocks away.

Because that is what I did!

Maybe you should do what I did and see for you self the 8 x 8 I own there, which contains my first realm?

So Samuel,

Roobean, when you joined you didn't have to walk 1000 blocks to reach public land.

When I joined I did have to walk 1000 blocks to reach public land, because I chose to stick directly to the West Spawn Road.




TLDR; Nope, I say the truth.

I like this idea, but like Skylord_Fox said, it would be better if we did not completely remove it which I do agree with him. But therefore if we remove part of it, the only way to have that happen is if we don't give access to noobs. I'm not trying to be unfair to people, but maybe just veterans should be able to use it. Or maybe people who have played for at least 5 months can go in. Therefore since those people have been part of the server for a somewhat long time they can be trusted since they obviously know the rules by then. There would have to be some sort of scanner or something that checks if the player has been player for that long.

Either that or to solve this problem simply of trashed public land would be a wipe BUT I know that Intelli confirmed that there would never be another wipe.

Just decided to throw these ideas out to guys.

I had a good compromise here. How about we limit the teleporter access to everyone who does not have a plus.? In otherwords all new players with a + are not permitted to use the teleporter until they have stayed and been forced to read the rules for awhile. This could keep everyone happy here.
