| Considering building a large shop (feedback/questions) |
|

A user and I were discussing about shops the other day, and the most popular ones, and it got me thinking that I wanted to make a large shop for my next build (a shop where one could purchase everything you can think of - not just the most common blocks or items. That means a big gardening section with every type of flower, all the grass and leaf types, vines, etc. - a thorough selection, you get the idea, and this idea would expand to each and every item type). Building wouldn't be such a problem, I have the time, resources, and spot, and I'd build simply so as to keep lag to a minimum, which would be necessary for such a large store. But I have a few concerns about certain items and stocking the store.
Problem 1 is that I've noticed other users, even with popular stores, have trouble stocking a few certain items, such as quartz blocks and glowstone. I can't fly, and I only have 2 homes, which means that I essentially cannot effectively use the res world, as I can't set homes there (need them for in progress builds) and I can't move around effectively to find the biomes I need. It would take me a long time to reach an unraided part of the Nether. I never realized until recently just how game-changing it is, economy and resource-gathering wise, to be able to fly. I can't do it, so I don't think there's any way I could stock blocks like this.
Problem 2 would be the fact that I am unwilling to buy certain items, based on trends I've noticed. One example is diamonds - I have never once bought a diamond from any player's store, and I can't see why anyone would do so. Just making one pickaxe would add up to 150 dollars because of the server shop's set price, and I've made the cost assessment - buying diamonds from any player store would be a massive waste of money because of the ease of going and finding even just one yourself. For those of you who have shops, do your diamonds even sell? I can't really understand how they would. There are other such items, too, namely anything in the server shop that can be sold - especially redstone blocks, iron blocks, gold blocks, etc.
One proposed solution I have to both of these problems is that I build the store, stocking the items like flowers, rails, dyes, etc. (the items I could gather or craft myself) in my own sell chests and let somebody else place signs on and sell in the nether quartz, glowstone, etc. chests. Another option is, I could build the store and then sell it to somebody.

Server you were banned on (SNP/Discord): Main Hometown Minecraft Server
Minecraft name: puttington
Reason for your ban: "Massive Croptheft"
Who banned you: Shisuan
Why should you be unbanned: I earlier made an appeal stating that I didn't think I had done anything wrong, turns out I had. Reason is pretty much because I mostly forgot about it, and thought I had done it on a different server. Now that I realize I have actually done something wrong, I apologize.
I do have an explanation, though looking back at it, is does make me look pretty dumb:
I came across the massive farm whilst searching for good warps to get food. Thinking it was some sort of server-owned mass farm for everybody to use, I started to take admittedly quite a lot. The reason is that, at the time, I thought all the crops would simply re-plant themselves, as I was used to that mechanic from other servers.
Again, I know that's stupid, and I fully accept responsibility for it.
Overall, I know I actually broke the rules, and it's not like I have a real excuse that makes sense. The only thing I can say is sorry. I was stupid and dumb, I know that. I genuinely try to be a good guy whenever I'm playing games with other's, so please don't judge me purely from a past lack of common sense.
Why do you want to come back: Because, these days, a simple, friendly, more or less vanilla minecraft server is very hard to come by, and the fact that Hometown has an active community is really something special as well. I've made a pretty cool settlement with laza8 and robertshadow (check it out if you want) and it really would be a shame to lose such progress. I feel that I could really contribute to the server as a whole, whether it be by helping newcomers, voting, or building cool stuff.
(I don't think there's anything wrong with this part, so I'm keeping it the same as my previous appeal)
I know I messed up, and I think anybody would be able to tell I'm genuinely sorry.

As a general note, I like to make little theme builds in my favorite biomes, and then move on to the next. When I started on the server, I made a quick place to live that pretty much serves as my base now (all my items and stuff are there, you know how it goes). It was a small cabin in a roofed forest biome, by a sort of horseshoe-shaped lake:
https://i.imgtc.com/bnqXdmh9xA.png
I made the "inside curve" of the river into a small, mostly decorative manual farm that I grab stuff from real quick if needed (grabbed pumpkins for snow golems):
https://i.imgtc.com/xEfRIXeK1z.png
I also decided that I wanted every type of animal I could get, and built a footpath through the entire forest with many animal corrals and areas along it, all the way to the forest's end:
https://i.imgtc.com/ISw7dCuDdp.png
https://i.imgtc.com/F0o2RzfiVl.png
https://i.imgtc.com/ySWfRgnlES.png
Here are some extra views of the cabin and the surrounding footpaths, along with a lava pool that I "decoratively neutralized" as well as a pool:

https://i.imgtc.com/F8yUX6H8nZ.png
https://i.imgtc.com/Da1JVpVwTd.png
https://i.imgtc.com/Q8rhMInQ6w.png
The next biome I wanted to build in was a mesa, and I was surprised that I was able to find my very own corner of one to start a ranch. I built enough stables for, and collected, every single possible horse color variant in the game (35 of them), and built a ranch house. First is the house, with a sort of Western style foyer and kitchen:
https://i.imgtc.com/Aj82dN5DdL.png
https://i.imgtc.com/hjUXdQmecC.png
Now take a look at the stables, which halfway circle the house, and are built into the surrounding canyon walls:
https://i.imgtc.com/vh0hvJ8NsO.png
https://i.imgtc.com/sEMqeoEDEC.png
I had my sights set next on the Cold Taiga biome. I created (myself, it's non-natural) a frozen lake, covered just about every piece of grass within my little area with snow, and built a "lodge" out of an artificial cliff face, making it look sort of like an ice cave or something, from the outside. I called this place "Winter Wonderland Lodge:"
https://i.imgtc.com/QGJr6ZE0YI.png
https://i.imgtc.com/Z9jqXXXXmR.png
The Cold Taiga build and the Mesa build are theoretically open to the public, but I won't release the warp names until I've built up enough claim blocks to grab the entire areas.

Server you were banned on (SNP/Discord): Main Hometown Minecraft Server
Minecraft name: puttington
Reason for your ban: "Massive Croptheft"
Who banned you: Shisuan
Why should you be unbanned: Because (unless I have terrible memory) I can't remember doing anything illegal. I have been off the server for quite a few months, and I recently thought I would return again, but as soon as I attempt to log in, it says I'm banned for "massive croptheft". I can assure you, I have not done anything such as this, and I'm sure it was simply a minor mistake by the admin.
Even if I have committed such crimes, chances are I was only taking crops from my friend (laza8) with permission, and this might have been picked up on the system, I don't know. Whether this is the case or not, I now know this is not the done thing, and I will try to the best of my ability not to repeat such crimes.
Again, though, I cannot remember doing anything against the rules at all.
Why do you want to come back: Because, these days, a simple, friendly, more or less vanilla minecraft server is very hard to come by, and the fact that Hometown has an active community is really something special as well. I've made a pretty cool settlement with laza8 and robertshadow (check it out if you want) and it really would be a shame to lose such progress. I feel that I could really contribute to the server as a whole, whether it be by helping newcomers, voting, or building cool stuff.
If it turns out I have done something significantly wrong, I sincerely apologize, and I hope you take this plea into consideration.

I recently found a witch hut in a swamp and I'm giving it away for free.
Conditions
- You must make it into a farm
- If you make the farm private/paid access you must give me, firegene, access.
Any takers??

I have made a list of all the rants/rages I can find on the forums. Have fun reading them.
YuriDeRider is pobably the funniest and longest.
Hmmm?
ExtremeJaredMC's link isn't working?
It keeps redirecting to mining_pro999.
Any fixes would be helpful, thanks.
For now it's on the 15th page on Off Topic

Yes, I've seen Kode364's appeal, and I see that Ara wants to give this player another chance.
However, from what I've seen it is unjustified.
here's a bit of the log to highlight the spamming problem.
[17:39:39] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] kode364 joined the game
[17:39:39] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] Welcome [Rookie] kode364 to Hometown!
Then he spammed three times in a row, gets kicked all three times.
[17:55:05] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> TPA IF YOU WANT TO START A TOWN<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
[17:55:50] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> >>>>> Tpa if you want to start a town!<<<<<<<<<<<<<
[17:57:03] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> >>>>> Tpa if you want to start a town!<<<<<<<<<<<<<
[17:57:08] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Expert*] pls >> kode, calm down
Then, 1.5 hours later, he started spamming AHHHHHHHH, getting kicked each time. He thinks only staffs can kick him therefore a staff is online to help him, and he is determined to find this "staff" by spamming.
[19:23:17] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[19:23:51] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [VIP3] CleeHawk >> kode364 knock off the spam ok
[19:24:13] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> Now that I know theres a staff online can thestaff help me?
[19:25:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[19:28:47] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Rookie] kode364 >> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[19:29:04] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Expert] CutieDva >> wow that kode person just wont give up
I think Dva is right. Please deal with this player. I don't think he has changed at all.

Code:
[b]Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord):[/b] smp.hometownmc.com
[b]Minecraft name:[/b] Bobert197
[b]Reason for your ban:[/b] I dug up some rails and some stairs
[b]Who banned you:[/b] Grimm_wolfe
[b]Why should you be unbanned:[/b] Because i was only trying to fix the stairs and the rails because they were all messed up, but i shouldnt have messed with it in the first place since it wasnt mine. Also it was a first time offence, and i didnt dig up to much, and would be willing to put it back the way it was.
[b]Why do you want to come back:[/b] Because i am still new to the server and want to be able to enjoy it more with my friend who had just told me about it a day ago.
