    I think that we should increase the allowed chest protections. i have recently reached my limit of 120 and think that as long as we are paying for the protections then we should be allowed to protect as many chests we wish, since we are spending our money on them. that includes locking chests,signs,furnaces.

    Locking signs should be free

    I'm fairly certain that chest protections only go so far for a reason. If this insanely rich person on the server locks all of his/her chests, and these chests number in the thousands, 500r a lock...

    Then leaves...

    That's 500,000r out of the economy.

    Not to mention that no one should have so many valuables as to warrant the use of so many locks.

    The economy's pretty wonky on Shadecrest- I think we should all know the gist of that from the mcMMO debate- and taxes already pluck a pretty penny out of player's pockets.

    120 large chests should be more than enough to hold your more important things, i.e. diamonds, obsidian, nether brick, glowdust, potions, gold/iron/coal/lapis, golden apples, logs, smoothstone brick, tools and wartoys. Things like cobblestone slabs and wooden steps shouldn't be taking up room in your locked chests, especially if you have been able to save the 60,000r necessary to lock EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

    [size=14pt]I am not in favor of chest lock extension, to put it bluntly.[/size]

    Smile and laugh, junglecommando, since you're the one who is so wealthy as to afford the locks.[size=4pt]*[/size]

    Information wants to be free; signs disperse information. Radio Free Signs starts next Thursday.

    We want to take money out of the economy, that's the reason we have to pay...

    I think Jungle bought the majority of those locks before the charge, or when chest protections were cheaper at like 250r.

    If possible why don't you raise the price after 120 (which is a hellacious amount of locks)
    What are you storing that you need more than 120 full chests. Seriusly if you spend enough time on shadecrest to get that kind of money, go get a job and get real money XD

    Why do you want stealing max?

    Thats a little harsh on Jungle, besides he probably did buy those when the chest protections were 250r.

    He bought most of them when they were 500 lol. How about after 120 locks, the price goes to 750, then after 250, 1000?

    Uh Gyro, at 500/lock, that would be 120x500=60,000r. How the heck did you get 500,000 :confused:

    What I want to know is this.. Jungle, how many locked chests do you have on hand that you use, and how many unused chests, signs, furnaces ect do you have locked up? I would imagine that you have quite a few locks unaccounted for or in an area that you don't go to anymore. I know I do.

    When you are mayor of a town your chest locks are needed for community / bank chests.

    I think im using quite a lot of chests wich are being locked by Jungle and also i have locked many chests in our town wich are usen by other players.

    So I belive Jungle doesnt use all of his chests himself, but he has locked chests for new people as they have been too poor to lock their own chests.

    do you think it would be cool to add lock picking to the server just make it extremely difficult it might be possible

    That's a terrible idea

    I second that. If we do bring this in everybody will rage except the people with nothing to loose.

    I like the idea that I could take from more chests, but I don't want to loose my stuff. So not going to happen.

    Well unlike you, we'd like to keep our stashes of diamonds and gold safe.
