I know this may go against the servers vanillaness but this is already a feature in bedrock edition. I checked the sight and it should work with the server.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[I love turtles and I have a turtle sanctuary in my town that I'm building, but when it comes to their safety I get paranoid about players or mobs potentially stepping on the eggs and destroying them before my babies get a chance to hatch. This presents a dilemma because it presents a large liability if I share my town for people to visit (It's the first underwater town to my knowledge and it would be a shame if I had to keep it a secret).<br />
<br />
Would it be possible to make turtle eggs within a claim not able to be trampled by anyone or any mobs? It makes me really sad when that happens.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am someone who loves the environment and would definitely want it to remain healthy and intact, but on a multiplayer server it is sometimes necessary to excavate and/or tear down a lot of land for large builds. However, this creates a problem for players who may want rare and specific biomes such as mangrove, mushroom island, or bamboo forest. This does not mean terraoforming, but just selecting two ends of a claim and doing /setbiome. <br />
<br />
This would have the benefit of changing what mobs spawn, so you can make it bamboo forest for natural pandas or you can make it mushroom island so it will forever be safe from monster spawns at night and have mooshroom cows. Or maybe even cherry Grove for the animations. To clarify to players, this action will not magically terraform all your grass to mycelium or mud or make bamboo appear instantly.<br />
<br />
This would also create players more incentive to create new islands and use up the endless resources of the server to terraform. When I was searching for a mushroom island (Not because I liked mushrooms but because it was free of hostile mob spawns) I would have been willing to make artificial islands in the middle of a huge ocean to do so, provided the biome would be the one that I wanted. Even if biome changes are limited to remote islands made by players or land claims, it is a huge help and opens up more building space for everyone.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The ability to have water source blocks placed in the nether for farm use would be pretty neat.<br />
 <br />
It would help reduce the use of hoppers and droppers to transport items and would help lower the time redstone would have to be used, /warp Piglin for example.<br />
<br />
Putting a stack or two of gold into /warp Piglin can take a good 20-30 minutes to finally finish putting the loot into chests and requires a decent amount of redstone to operate which would be constantly going the entire time. <br />
<br />
If it were to be converted into a water stream it would remove ~90 hoppers, ~43 droppers, a constantly firing dropper tower, and would save some hair being pulled out by those who end up leaving because its taking too long to get their loot.<br />
<br />
Players could be charged on a per water source block basis and/or could be required to have it inside of a claim so nobody else can mess with it.]]></description>

It can be tinkered with and say stuff like either "you voted 22h 40 mins ago" or "you have 1h 60 mins left until you can vote" or make it say "Go vote now" once the period of 24h has been reset! I can see why some players and staff members might see this as having disadvantages as well as advantages. One disadvantage would be - it would take away from the effort needed to put in if you wanna reach top voter/voters and you wouldn't need to set alarms and such, but regardless, I hope a lot of players will find it has more advantages than disadvantages, so please consider adding it if possible. <img src="https://hometownmc.com:443/forums/images/smilies/smile.png" alt="Smile" title="Smile" class="smilie smilie_1" /><br />

			<description><![CDATA[So I have an idea for a plugin, The plugin I would like to suggest is called "Banknotes".<br />
     This plugin allows any player to use the "/withdraw (amount of money)" command to create a physical "Banknote" that you can give to another player that they can "/deposit" to redeem the amount of money that you put into it with the "/withdraw" command. This would be very useful for things like casinos or just giving out prizes in an event.<br />
<br />

I found out the hard way after building a new villager trading hall and tried to convert some villagers, out of the 13 unlucky souls to get fed into this converter only 0 of them made it out alive. &gt;:}]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[So I've been doing a lot of research on how to decrease the server load for redstone builds, and I found out that our hopper rules (<a href="https://hometownmc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=5224" target="_blank">https://hometownmc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=5224</a>) are actually out of date, similar to how we used to recommend furnaces on top of hoppers and now recommend droppers.<br />
<br />
Since 1.14, composters are actually the best block to place on top of hoppers to reduce lag, as they perform the same function as droppers/furnaces but don't require the extensive inventory checks of droppers, and additionally aren't block entities themselves, further reducing the amount of lag they cause.<br />
<br />
Here's a video explaining and testing various blocks: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC3ZOOI1Rf0" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC3ZOOI1Rf0</a> (no new blocks have added hopper functionality since 1.14 so this video is still up-to-date)<br />
<br />
TL;DR: Composters on hoppers provide 30% less lag than droppers on hoppers, so they should be the new default block on top of hoppers for HomeTown.]]></description>
