Let's talk: Rickies

I agree, I would also like enchantment books since for me, it's not easy to get them.

What about 1 off commands like R50 for a one time /tp <player> ?
Also what about you make more /nick features like pay R5000 for a perm nickname that is sensible E.G: I would pay 5000 and get the perm nickname of JackDelta instead of jackerdelta.
And this may sound a bit impossible but you can buy NPC villages/buildings.

basically you'd click the button on the website it'd get your location and if there was nothing around you in (x) radious it'd import a building...

Anyways just my ideas :/

I fully agree with IceDevice! My reason is because I believe lvl 50, just like that for 350 rickies, is waaay to cheap...

Did you guys not read the part where I said the prices are placeholders like 3 times?

Guys, pay no attention to the prices.

[IceDevice]

What do you think of the ideas though, Pri?

The enchanting thing is a great idea but unfortuantely not possible.

Here are the constraints: I can't tell what a user has in their hand or inventory. I cannot remove items from players or replace items.

What I can do: Give temporary permissions, execute commands as if an admin was on the server doing it (like /sun for the weather or /item to give items or /repair hand to repair something in a persons hand without knowing what that something is).

I hope these constraints make sense.

Also I have finished the authentication system it's pretty neat. Here is the UI so far:



And here is the two factor authentication system box:



The whole page goes black and this pops up on top. You can however dismiss the box if you don't want to login. The authentication system allows you to be logged in from an unlimited amount of computers simultaneously. You can log out of a specific computer or all the computers you're logged in on. And of course you can take your PC to a different IP Address without needing to log in again. This fully supports multiple users from the same IP Address (Brothers / Sisters / Friends) and it is thus the most sophisticated login system I've written thus far, actually better than the Admin Control Panel.

This is really freaking awesome dude.

This is really freaking awesome dude.

Thanks Skorup

And just in the nick of time, the shop is done. All the code is finished, all the items are available to buy (including blocks) everything is working and the Beta has begun. Here is an image showing the interest parts of the shop. http://i.imgur.com/6IeXi11.png rest assured the other blocks shown in the previous screenshot are still there and ready to be purchased.

It will be launching to everybody on the 14th on the same day as the new Spawn is going in.

Shame you couldn't release something like this as a plugin or something, such an obviously needed (and well made!) idea.

Why do you keep coming back.

Shame you couldn't release something like this as a plugin or something, such an obviously needed (and well made!) idea.

I made a reddit post about our Admin Control Panel once on the admincraft subreddit. Within a day it was the 14th most popular thing ever posted to that subreddit. We got tons of people asking for it and many wanted me to sell it in the comments.

I've made a lot of interesting site stuff over the past year, the ACP, this new shop, the gallery, the vote page. It would all be a nice community package if I were to release it for other Minecraft servers but then we would lose it as a unique feature. The point of me making this stuff has been to enrich our servers, provide us with a sorely needed niche.

There are now over 100,000 Minecraft servers in operation according to PhonicUK (The creator of McMyAdmin a popular Admin Control Panel) and many of the server listing sites have over 18,000 servers listed to them and those are just added by the server owners who desire to be listed there are still thousands unaccounted for. What this all means is, there is a lot of competition and simply offering a forum, main portal and IRC doesn't cut it anymore. Just offering Creative and Survival doesn't cut it either.

After the New Spawn is in and the shops Beta is finished I will be working again on the UCP which will provide Skin Control, Schematic Control and other useful community tools like that. Then I will be adding probably an auction system to the Shop under a new tab allowing users to post blocks to it at any price they want and then other players can bid for the blocks or buy them outright.
