I guess I will start with the V6 questions. Will normal vanilla villager trading be allowed since it would be nice to get some emeralds easy since they are only decoration and will sponges still have there modified water clearing use as in V5? Now for my public opinion question many of you already have a sweet noobween skin and as I am already a technical "monster" what should I change into? I would love ideas and obviously I won't choose them all but still. Thanks!
You should change your skin so that you have herobrine's eyes. then I won't be the only person with them;)

Due to mob removal is now gone, and players could keep a villager hostage and become rich and rich and that's how sometimes the economy gets wrecked with random prices and that. They may bring them out again,but disable the tradings. Sponges will most likely be able to mop up the water, unsure on that though.

lol ill just rip it off....lol im going to go do that now
Honestly I think vanilla trading should be fine, since it requires alot of trading to get decent items and even to get all trades unlocked you have to trade extreme amounts of emeralds, so yea I see no harm in it and about emeralds, they have no real use except decoration so the price of emeralds shouldnt really matter.

It would trash any sort of economy.There is literally no limit to the number of trades you could do and you could just trade paper/wheat/chicken to get emeralds to begin with.At that point, once you find a decent amount of villagers (let's say 6-10) you are in a loop that generates infinite items from nothing.Even if you kept findin horrible trades (say, 4 emerald for 1 shear) you could just breed villagers to improve the chances :|
you are still limitted to the demand of the items which then again balances it out right...?

I dont think you understand what I meant, even if the auction will be injected with items, if people wont buy your traded stuff, then you wont sell it simple?

It seems that you missed the point where it makes a difference: who would by that much paper?It's not money until you can sell it. No server shop = no easy money.Then you find a villager.All of a sudden you can convert tons of paper into diamond tools.You can't compare branch mining (which requires hours and is a tedious task) with 5 minutes of AFKing and a button press.If you think that 24 papers for 1 emerald is a hard trade then go check how much sugarcane a multilayered farm can yeld and if you still have doubts go search on YT for "minecraft perfect villager" (or any up to date villager trading tutorial).
Let's say it takes 10 hours to get a good villager. It doesn't need to be the perfect one, you just need 2-3 of them.You can't compare it with 10 hours of branch mining, you need to compare the two on the long run.After those first 10 hours:The guy mining will need to keep mining cause his diamonds will run out eventually.He also needs the diamonds to craft tools, time to travel and food to keep going.The guy with the trade setup instead just need to press the farm button, trade, sell to someone else for diamonds and get stacks of those without losing any useful resource in the process AND spending less time than the mining guy.In the old server I went mining once.When I had the farms I needed I always bought whatever I needed.After 2-3 months Duelcon was the only one on the server with more money than me (after a while I went inactive) and that was just by abusing MMOskills and no automated farm to quicken the process >_>
