it isn't a block within the game that is usable, therefore this is impossible

I would like that.

Well unless I misread Miner's first post he said that you can silk touch it off the snow on the ground, and since we have weather on that means that it snows... So you can actually get this snow within the game without having to add it to the global shop.

Otherwise I have no opinion on this because I don't quite see the complete point of being able to get this block right now.

No, I'm saying I don't see why we necessarily need to add it to the global shop if we can get it in game if it's only used for decoration. I can't think of any decoration items we have in global now but if there are please mention it. Can't get on currently since I'm staying at my dad's this week and I don't get stable FPS on Minecraft to check the global shop list.

Also it would be very limited stock from what I know of the global shop, people probably wouldn't be wasting silk touch on it if it was available normally through that to sell it to the global shop. From what I known of when I buy out something in the global shop, like gunpowder/etc, it only restocks itself up to 250 of an item unless people are selling to it. And I don't know when it restocks itself, I think at least twice a day.

That's very minimal stock for 77+ players that are usually on at any one point in time, especially if you don't know when it's going to restock. And considering it seems like only a decoration item people might want large portions of it when they actually buy it. There would also be a large problem of what price it should be at as well.

Considering Mycelium and Grass aren't in the global shop but in the VIP shop, I also think that it has a higher chance of only making it into the VIP shop with a good argument, not the global shop.

I agree it would have a better chance going in the VIP shop. But twistedlover, I'm pretty sure minerman had a typo, he meant to say you can't silktouch snow plates.

LOL! I noticed that now, yes I meant to say can't not can :p Anyways I do agree about adding it only to the VIP shop, even tho now it does not make a difference to me.

I just thought about adding it to the general store while the golems are gone, after that they could be removed cause you can simply use the golems to get them :3
