Another way to make money

So on a few servers that run economy theres a way how to get .5 for every block you break/place... was wondering on other peoples thoughts about seeing if we could get this done

 

idk but i liked it that .5 was credited for breaking/placing cause right now how its setup its like next to impossible to find the gold iron diamond ores as most was mined already... its just a suggestion as i find it hard to make money im sure theres a way to set a max... say like 200/day that they could earn by mining

 

well its a suggestion right, you can do whatever needs to be to limit the total intake but say if u hit 200 maybe thats it for the day right but ya im sure you can think of something to help people out to make money since the economy is tuff

 

im happy with 200r a day from it or little more depends on how to setup though... cause its not easy finding the ores i spent a full day trying to

 

Would this cause people to dig random holes on the main worlds? Or build dirt boxes just to get money? I think it should be a very small amount that way people get something from it but they don't just try and tear the map up to get money.

 

Nope in mining world... i got my redstone from under my house though

 

Would there be a way to add another automated notification to alleviate this issue in the future? Seems a lot of people are having that problem. And I really like this idea, and concur with max on .02.

 

I like this idea, but idk about placing blocks
and i went mining for a few hours yesterday:
withing the first few minutes i found a cave with a mob spawner, but after a few hours i only got maybe 1 stack of iron, some lapis, 2 gold and 2 diamonds
i know there are plenty of ores in mining, you just have to know where to look, which i don't lol

 

i dont know where to look too lol

 

^lol but i did find some diamond tools in a crater from a creeper XD

 

What if you earned 25-50 rupies for every IRL hour spent on Shade Crest? A player could make money while building, sight-seeing or being helpful in chat. 8)

I recall another server did this, so there may be a plugin.

Towns would benefit because nobody who played often would be broke come tax time. A player could spend hours working on his house or collecting resources for his town instead of worrying about finding gold for plot taxes and residency taxes.

 

maybe just get rid of blocks like cobble and dirt getting money

 

@Dolmen I disagree with this idea. If you got rupies just for being online then people would find ways to stay online doing absolutely nothing except the minimum to keep from being afk kicked, which could cause problems from too manny people staying on. The idea of getting rupies for blocks placed/destroyed will do basically the same thing but will encourage people to be online and ACTIVE; like building or mining, or harvesting "not sure if harvesting crops or trees would count for receiving rupies."

If people are stupid enough to destroy the main worlds and not go to mining world to destroy/place blocks for rupies where they have the chance of finding gold or diamond, then they have a problem. So having people grief the living daylights out of the main worlds should not be an issue.
