I think its just a bad idea and i will give you 3 reasons why.

1. it doesnt feel legit when you just can go to shop and get all items for free and to all of you who are too lazy to get your building materials ''come on do it like anyone else go farming for the items.

2. i think that we will see alot of smaller towns with only 1 or 2 players in them just because they didnt get enough plots to build in the big cities like alathar and that makes big cities completly useless and then ''towny'' really losses its fun.

3. if it gets to that you get alot of towns with 1 or 2 players you get a problem with the server expanding making the server using more memory and making it lag so much it might be unplayable.

*EDIT*

a little thing more if you make worldedit a thing everyone can use the server wil probaly crash 100 times a day and i know you can set a limit to how many blocks you can set with worldedit but it will just make the server more laggy.

The last thing Ant would do is giving WorldEdit to everyone. I am really experienced with Minecraft and WorldEdit and asked multiple times for it and he didn't give it to me.

I like it the way it is now.
I like exploaring new caves, looking for materials for my house by myself, its just more fun then just go to the shop and get the things.

somewhere in Ant's mind wrote: no, they would do //chunk //set lava and fuck up the whole server.
i got the rollback shits tho but that doesn't matter.

I also just remembered the time I went to the pixelatedplanet server[not sure if i will ever find a more poorly managed server, they really went downhill since that cracked shit.], Apparently they had to disable water, lava and fire because when they had that 'freebuild' thing on someone spammed the fuck out of the map. Considering what happened with cstom3 and how many players you could lose by disabling water, the server is probably better off with money.

Sorry to bother about this, Ant, but do you plan on changing the server with this idea?

If so when?

I was really only gonna do it if the decision was more unanimous. But lets see how often the people that did not want this idea actually play.

Personally I don't care for what you do to the server Ant. It's your choice.
All I would like to mention, is that A51 V3 got boring within the first 3 months.

For everyone complaining - Just because you'll be able to access things from a shop for free, doesn't mean you can't go and dig up your own materials and shit. No-ones going to stop you.

Extra (Ant): Increase distance between home blocks in config.yml, y'know to avoid eyesores from neighboring towns.
