Player-Warps... What i mean ? Now and then i (as many of us did) have ran across some crazy ppl who have build something really awesome. Sometimes we just befriended these ppl and have the chance to take a glimpse of their work. And other times we find their projects by pure luck while wandering as far from the portals as we could. Well i think it would be a nice change, that some of these communities-houses-castles- sky islands-underwater shops etc etc, and only if their owners wants to do so, they could be revealed to the world and make it possible to be accessed by other players with ease. I think there is a way to give the opportunity to some players (maybe only to some above a rank) to make their own warp at their desired locations and advertise them in order for other players to see them. Creating a menu with only player-warps where we could choose which one we want to visit. I don't know if its impossible, but its for sure something i would like to see in survival.
The solution to this would be to have admins make these warps, in that way there will not be too many of them and all warps will be guaranteed to go to a quality build.
I believe most survival players don't want too many people finding their claims actually. If they do wish more people could see their work, they could just ask people in public chat to come look.
I'm not sure about this but a mini build competition could perhaps be held once in a certain period of time, where winners can maybe choose if they want to have a warp to their build (Make the warp last only a certain period of time though)? On one hand people who dedicate hours, even days of work on a build can show it to the other players and on the other hand, players also get to see the amazing build by these players.
This could work as well though with all honesty, trying to get people to come to you in chat is not really that easy (Tried and failed yesterday I'm the living proof xD) Haha :3
Its true that many players don't want their plots been discovered... that's why they build them so far away. But that doesn't mean that everyone see it that way. FF is only an example about this. Plus, most of the ppl that spend time to build something nice and big, they care to claim it first and most of the times that means super big claims cause it concerns players that has a rank and many claim blocks (they may even be part of a team of such individuals). Anyway, if we wanted something like that to work, we should first find a way on how this privilege would be bestowed and to who. The competitions idea is not bad and it decreases somehow the responsibilities of the admins on this matter.
Actually this warp idea would still require quite a lot from the admins, especially since it's hard to satisfy all the players =) Still, this is definitely an interesting idea to work on and should it come of as successful, would really raise the level of fun in the survival server
