You say the community of Minecraft is dying and I would like to agree but the numbers right now look like they are doing just fine. This is also a very negative standpoint that seems to show you have abandoned the idea VillageCraft could ever do better than it has been doing. Minecraft is still selling very well(granted across all platforms but still), but thats not the numbers I am worried about. An article I found says the active monthly player count is just shy of 75 million so it couldn't be unreasonable to attract new players.I have the opposite opinion I think a big change will help bring in new people and make it more welcoming to older players returning. I know I would play more with a newer economy, as the old one never got me interested (shown by I never really made my own money). I am not saying we remove the older players wealth but changing how we use it and make it could be fun for new and old players.The player base of Minecraft is shrinking everyday, we can't really do anything to bring in new players at this point.
We tried to introduce a stock market via the Bitcoin plugin, and although parliament passed it, it was unpopular with many people, because they thought that vc was a building not an economics server and "only people with bitcoin experience will benefit" but hey, whatever.I think that it is good that we have thought this over before and change has at least been put forward, but now is not time to villanize the opposition. I do however think they are wrong on what kind of server VillageCraft is sure it is a building server (hell it's minecraft 80% of the game is building) but I could just build on a single player game. I think VillageCraft can(should) offer something that can't be done in single player (The economy we have now doesn't really count in my eyes it is too bare bones). An more in depth and active economy is something we can do to set the server apart from the solo experience.
