Hello Born,
So I know that this has been brought up before and I understand the need to make donating more attractive, but I think that having a chest shop plugin will not affect the appeal of being able to create a showcase shop. These are my reasons:
The real benefit of donating to have a showcase shop is that you have access to the 50% off donators shop and that you have the ability to set a warp point. These two perks allow you to easily restock your own store with marked up but competitive prices (because no one else has access to 50% off store and your prices would be still cheaper than the server store) and make your store accessible to everyone on the server.
However, I feel that by not having these two perks, a chest shop will never be as attractive as donating to have a showcase shop. In order to stock a chest shop, one would have to gather all the materials themselves or buy from another shop and mark up the prices. Gathering the materials yourself would take a tremendous amount of effort and buying from another shop and marking up prices would guarantee that a chest shop will never be as competitive as a showcase shop. In addition, not being able to set a warp point would drastically limit the amount of people who would actually buy from a chest shop store due to the fact that they wouldn’t be able to reach it unless they were already relatively close to it.
Now here is my reason for why a chest shop plugin would benefit the server more than it would harm it:
Giving everyone the ability to create at least some short of shop would greatly increase the economy aspect of the game. As of right now, the economy aspect isn’t very interesting. You can farm and sell crops to the server or attempt to trade with other individuals through chat, which not a lot of people like to do (and some moderators regard as spamming server chat). I think that a chest shop would greatly increase the economy aspect and prevent from losing players to the many servers where chest shops are free and widely used. And like others have suggested, you can always charge per chest shop created and require upkeep, which would still give players the opportunity to participate more in the economy but also keep showcase shops infinitely more attractive.
I’d like to hear the opinions of everyone (Born, moderators, donators, non-donators). Make sure to let me know if there are any aspects I am missing or something I haven’t considered. If so, then I will reevaluate my opinion.
Thank you for considering!
Vote up I think we should make it like 40k with 2.5k upkeep just like a town although i think we should be able to add warps for an additional 10k or so. Hopefully this will happen.
