Hello, its Chipsz here, again... :lol:
I had a discussion with TheChosenOne_NZ and christp123 about Withers, Nether Stars, and Beacons the other day.
It all started when I found my very first ever Wither Skull during an adventure in a nether fortress.
After I found the skull, I took it home straight away, and tried to put it in a item fram to show it off coz I'm like that :ugeek:
I discovered while trying to place the skull, that I did not have permission!
So I made a "/modreq" and TheChosen one explained that its to stop people from spawning Withers and how it would be bad for the server, make it lag, possibly crash it, if it doesn't get killed, etc. All of this was quite reasonable, however, upon being notified of the status of Withers on the lolnet server, I realized that the beacons I have seen around the server where brought into existence via commands/creative.
I wanted to know if it was possible for a normal user to obtain a Nether Star (the nether Star is used for crafting a beacon).
The answer was like a blunt NO.
I protested this, sort of like a cake head I admit, I was over tired, however that is no excuse, so I apologize to TheChosenOne_NZ and christp123 if I came across as a cake head or too abrasive, sorry guys.
Now back to the matter at hand.
I'd like user to be able to obtain Nether Stars, in order for the crafting of beacons.
I am really bummed that I can get a beacon for my base.
So I have come up with some compromise ideas so that myself and others whom long to have a beacon of their own can obtain the precious Nether Star.
My first idea is that there be some sort of trade that could be done between a user (with Wither skulls and soulsand) and a mod. This is the basis of the idea where the Wither skulls and Soulsand be traded for a Nether star, because they're not allowed to spawn one to fight etc. There could be more required for the trade to commence, for example, items that would be used in a battle against a Wither be added to the trade, in game money, etc etc.
My second idea is that a user with the Wither Skulls and Soulsand, organize a time when the server could host a spawning of a Wither. There could be an arena created where people could watch the battle, it would be pretty awesome I think, but perhaps a bit exhausting of the lolnet resources, which is why I favor the first idea.
There could also be requirements other then having the skulls and sand in order to gain the opportunity to battle a Wither on the server, like a payment of money in game etc.
So yeah, please let me know what you think, or if you have any ideas about this Beacon/Wither/Nether Star situation.
