I know im newer than most people, but I would love to suggest an idea -even if it gets shot down 4 minutes later-
Before i was here, there was the gods plugin which lots of people hated because of bickering, griefing and fighting over who's god is better. Also i know Air already had said that we shall never speak of this again, but me -being the freaky Pagan that i am- think this was somewhat of a cool idea. And no, I am not asking to make it available again. That would be stupid.
No, what im suggesting is if we could have a prayer mod.
http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/prayer/In many villages there are some sort of church or temple and having the prayer plugin enabled would give a purpose to them.
True, some of the things you could pray for, Like flight or day, are god-modded and completely ridiculous, but you can disable those op prayers.
In audition, if one were to pray to much they would have malicious repercussions.
I believe this would be a good, interesting mod, but i mean people who were here longer than me might think otherwise, but thanks for considering.
