On many other servers with plot lands, the ability to buy chunks is a lot more open than here on Noobscraft. For example, the ability to get credits for chunks as a player plays. I think that for every hour a Noobstowner plays, they should earn the ability to buy a chunk. Not 4, not 5, just 1 chunk. It would give players who play for multiple hours a day the ability to have an easier way to buy a chunk.

You realize the amount of chunks someone could get would quickly just be so insanely high they'd flood up the wild world? Even if you played only 2 hours a day you'd have 14 chunks to claim in a week, and just imagine each and every person claimed 14 chunks in the wild world every single week. Even with 20 players that's 280 chunks one week, 560 by the second week, 840 the third, and 1120 by the fourth week. It's just far too quick an expansion, it would clog up the wild world too much I think.
There's also the fact that someone could get on and simply move their character once every 14 minutes to avoid the AFK kick and then just get free chunks for doing nothing. While perhaps there could be another way of getting chunks for working, I don't think time played is one that should fit into it.

and what's the difference between that and working for your money and putting that towards the chunks? After all you are still playing to get the money, you're just having to work harder for it.

i know it costs me 311k for chunk number 78 but id rather mine for it than to get it for free by being online.
its NOT hard to earn money here.
Couse of me buying these plots and the admins saw the original price for my 78th they lowered the amount drastic.
it WAS 1.9 Milion Nbz. lets keep it as it is now to earn money to buy 1.

I like the idea, but the rate would have to be SUPER low. Like 1 free chunk per 100 hours of playtime just as a neat little bonus for server loyalty.
Anything more than that would decimate the wild.

as Chompertons said if we did it would have to be really low, if not then it ruins all of the money basically

I understand that of course, it was just the idea of earning as we go... Maybe every 10 Hours 1 chunk?I like the idea, but the rate would have to be SUPER low. Like 1 free chunk per 100 hours of playtime just as a neat little bonus for server loyalty.

The problem with that is that 100 hours is the time many players spend in total on the server, with far too many falling way below that number

If you're only playing 100 hours on the server in the entirety of your minecraft career, what in the world do you need more free plots for? You can't build more than 10 plots worth of stuff both vertically and horizontally in that amount of time.

Yeah, and they spend countless hours playing on Noobscraft and are purely focused on the wild. I would say over the month and a half of V6, they have played easily 200 hours. Even I, who hasn't played in a week, has played easily 175 hours of playtime.

so for me id have atleast 3 free chunk lol 14 days online = 336H

but no tnx lets keep it as it is with only buying the chunks

I agree that there has to be an alternative way to earn chunks other than spending millions and millions of noobz or putting in real life money. I just don't enjoy the server anymore without the ability to build stuff.

I hardly think anyone would put in hundreds of hours to get the amount of noobz me and a few other big builders like Omega need. There are many more productive things I can do where I feel a lot more like I'm actually accomplishing something than just mining netherrack for 300 hours.
