Suggestion #8 - Megabuilds: Please vote or input opinion.

[Crashlander04]

I suggest that the ability to enter creative mode or at very least the necessary supplies be granted to players for the purpose of building large RP related structures. Megabuilding is common on many other servers, and offers many opportunistic aspects to RP.

Epic fortresses, giant walls, mountains, towers - anything that would lend to epic RP or expanding on the possibilities of a theme. RP/NPC filled, interactive villages could be sponsored by the server for the sake of exploration. Custom dungeons could be built and hidden for unsuspecting adventurers (I'm serious, if anybody builds a dungeon and spoils the surprise by telling a friend where it is I'll slap them) and monuments could be designed for ancient civilizations - text could be left behind as clues for server hosted quests.

Players would need to submit a private or public application to a staff member given that responsibility, which would then be accepted or denied. Of course the builds would have to be realistic, but megabuilds are generally rather large.

The player, if given creative mode, would have to be supervised properly to ensure proper use of such abilities - or perhaps a special build mode that would eliminate the ability to do anything but place and adjust blocks (removing the ability to store cheated items). If all creative mode ideas fail to show promise or security the builder can be granted the materials needed for their megabuild.

Any megabuilds that are to be created must at very least have some reasonable aspect of public use. That is to say, one could not build a fortress and claim it as their own singular property - but instead use it for a faction's base. A massive wall could not be constructed around your property, but may adorn the side of a town or nation. Of course interactive settings would be interactive with the public - or adventurers who stumble upon them.

(Even if this suggestion is denied, the staff itself may want to invest in one or two of these ideas as projects for expanding RP)
