So, I too haven't been active on MR in the last week. Somewhat because of Internet issues, somewhat because I'm a lil bored with it. Please don't get me wrong, I LOVE the community and the overall concept of MineRealm. What I've done to keep myself entertained is started a very small, pure vanilla, white-listed server and I'm having fun playing with a few random people that applied for white-list.

I have no expectation of any of the following coming true. But since it seems to be the fad of the week to say what we'd like to see for MineRealm's future, here's my wish list.

New map. No inv, credits, anything carried over *
*If you want something from the old map carried over to the new map it has to be nominated, seconded, then voted on by the community. And only a certain # of structures can be moved...6 maybe? And even then, once its moved, the person who nominated it has a very small window of time to blend it into the new map or its gone. And ony the structure is moved, no chests.

Smaller realms. Your first costs 10k after that they cost 20k each. If you are not active in a realm for 30 days regardless of whether you are active on the server, you lose the realm. Active=break/place a block, change the motd, change the name, add/remove a member, something to show you still are using this realm. If you lose the realm, you get no credits for it. You have to earn the credits and buy it back just like everyone else. You can sell a realm back to the server but you only get 2500 credits back, regardless of the original price you paiad. Oh and rc, can only be used for purchase of a realm. Otherwise its pure trade. Exceptions can be made for things like /ad or /lottery but credits can't be given to other players.

If you buy a realm with stuff on it, you wait 2 weeks and then do what you want with it. Official rule. No wishy washyness about it.

PVP. The spawn protection area is no pvp. Otherwise its toggleable with a 5 minute cool down period. Nether remains full pvp but with no pvp zones around all spawn Nether portals.

Spawn/warps. There are several spawns far and wide around the map. You spawn the first time at one randomly. When you do /spawn you go to the spawn you are closest to. /home is gone. /trade remains as it currently functions.

Keep it antigrief and no white-list, but have a forum to list griefage with coordinates and screenshots/descriptions so that if you can't make connections with a staff person it can get looked into before the data is too old.

if tl/dr that's ok, it's just my wish list for MineRealm, nothing important

Starting over will only incite people to leave, trust me. Having worked on something for a long time, only to lose it doesn't exactly give people motivation.

A few extras, if I may (save making another thread)...
- PvP is non item returns by default, items must only be returned if agreed beforehand.
- Anyone re-logging every 29 days to keep their realms must become more active or lose them.
- No posting on ban appeals unless involved directly, genuinely helping (eg. 'How do I change the title?'), or a staff member.
- All staff applications must be public from the beginning, so that the community have some form of input into it - how else do you see whether the candidate has a positive community image?
- Keep /home, even with a few spawn points I can see this being really inconvenient.
- Solve the /trade glitch, or warn players about it more visibly.
- More European moderators - from around 3-9pm on weekdays, and 10am-9pm on weekends there seems to be hardly any mods online, if any.
- No in-game auctions, only sales, as they tend to fill chat to a hideous level.
- Add, "Hello I work for PMC"and it's variants to the helpbot filter.
- No RWT, ever.

These are all my opinions, so feel free to disagree.

People leave anyway, for many many reasons. And new ones join. Some leave because things stay the same. Some would leave because things changed. Its not possible to please everyone. There was a time when I would have been bummed at the idea of a map wipe, now it's on my wish list. But, Intelli has said many times that there won't be another wipe, so I don't think anyone needs to worry :)
