/timerequest
« on: September 09, 2013, 05:03:19 PM »
Just thought of another way to drain the vT pool. I think implementing a /timerequest command could help. The basic function would serve as a way for players to request the time to be set to 0. A message would be sent to an online staff member and if they choose to accept, the person who sent the request would have to pay a set amount of vT. To limit it's use I was thinking that this command could only be registered 4 times between server restarts and only once per hour. If a single player wants to request another /timerequest they would have to pay double the previous amount payed. This would only apply to a person who has used the command between server restarts. Anyone else requesting it for the first time would pay the basic beginning rate.

Rates per Person
First request - 1000vT
Second request - 2000vT
Third request - 4000vT
Fourth request - 8000vT

As a way to prevent people who want the time reset again from just paying someone else to request for them, there could be a 1 hour buffer preventing people who receive vT from another player from using the command or have the person be required to pay 8000vT to make the request for the other person after receiving vT (pretty much a fail safe to prevent noobs, who will try to bypass the pay system, from cheating the system). Oh also you won't be able to gain vT from other's after using the command for a set amount of time.

Although I like the concept of this idea, I don't condone it. As some of you may know, I refuse to change the time. Innectis already far enough away from survival and I'd like to make it as close as physically possible.

What's going to stop people from just asking staff anyway? Without this request system.

I'm here to help.. With the following exception:



@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.LOW)
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
    Player player = event.getPlayer();
    if (player.getName().equals("SGT_ADZ") {
        player.kickPlayer("Yeah... Nah!");
        return;
    }
}

People will just nag and complain about this since some staff choose to do this out of the kindness of their hearts. However, like SGT, I do not agree with this, for I still believe in the "Survival" aspects of the server, even if Minecraft is really easy in the first place.

Some staff used to charge anyway and after being informed about the charge people promptly shut up or paid. It was either ostra or lynxy cant remember.

I do it out of the kindness of my heart and always have. However, I just don't feel that this suggestion is the right thing to do.
