you should add more ranks, like "vip" could use worldguard and teleport; "senor" (acheived after playing 48 hours) could use teleport, worldguard, and worldedit, as well as spawning small amounts of mobs, and so on

How does this make the game more fun?

Everything in-game should have an in-game mechanic, unless there's a reason.

Spawning items or mobs doesn't really have an in-game purpose, and no mechanic.

For instance, if we had a class system, we might have a "warlock" class that could spawn a creeper every five minutes.

Stargates are a good example. They provide teleports, but there's an in-game explanation for how they work, and what they do.

Growing flowers requires bone meal.

Basically, TANSTAAFL: there's no such thing as a free lunch. If you want a lunch, there's got to be a price. That's the whole point of a game.

A veteran rank would be cool for people who are quite old users of the server.
Red chat colour would be awesome.
No extra rights.
Just a suggestion.
(Fav. colour is :cloth3red:)

Haha, a vet rank would be fun (vet rank having no extra privileges). Then everyone could laugh and point out how we have no life :P. The only conflict would be vet rank vs donors. Don't know how that'd work.

Also there should be a color for player with most money ($$ mongering!). But it shouldn't be implemented until I regain first place. fyi.

Veteran is just a rank. You are a mod, so you would be a higher rank.
Veteran is just for the good ol' players who aren't mod.
Post any further things at the poll.
