best ways to make credits (my opinion)

Hey guys, I've been thinking of ways to make money pretty fast in minerealm. These methods have nothing to do with selling items. Well here we go.

Sand: When it comes to sand, its one way to make great credits. Wether having a normal spade or a enchanted spade, your still going to get a result. Sand is easy to collect, if you go into a desert, you will have the best advantage there.

Wooden Spade: 500 - 1k credits an hour (due to having to create so many spades)
Stone Spade: 1000 - 2000 credits an hour
Iron Spade: 2000 - 2500 credits an hour
Gold: Worthless
Diamond: 3000 - 4000 credits an hour

Plus you get a lot of sand to turn into glass or even sandstone

I've tested this out, and it really all depends on how long you stay shoveling the sand. But staying constant you will get these results.

Netherrack: Netherrack is the easiest thing to mine in minecraft. Knowing this is the best part. Doing this method will earn you a lot of credits, again, it all depends on how long you do this.

Cobblestone placing: Now this may sound stupid, but it does get you a lot of credits. Heres what you will need to do.

1: Take all the cobblestone collected by mining/buying or what ever method.
2. Find a spot in the middle of nowhere (to not disturb anyone)
3. Start making rows 64 long, repeating this about 10 time.
4. After this, just start going down each row, putting down 64 cobblestone all the way up to height limit. (I suggest placing a block behind you every time so you do not fall off.

The last time I did this, from just 1 row, 64 blocks long and high, I got 2048 credits, which took me about 30 minutes.

I hope these ideas help you in making credits, I'll try to add more if I find more ways.

Spamming cobble in public land is considered griefing, and can result in a ban. FYI

For the cobble one, double up your credits by then using a few diamond picks to mine the cobble out, preventing a ban! :)

How is that considering griefing if you do it in places such in x4000? I find that lil bad to ban people for placing blocks in "public land" where you say you can build in "public land" I'm just saying.

Fine update, make sure you do it in a realm you own first.

I wish that would work, but intelli made it so you can't get credits from the same block.

or just take down the cobble monolith you made after you're done placing.

You can also build a cobble road from one remote location to another like the one I made from BeachTown to Crystal. It goes over some hills and mountains and through a forest.

I thought you could get credits for placing the blocks, and then more credits for removing them, but no more after that.
