2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
I agree with jayjay. Mob arena seems awesome

This is a survival server.  That first question shouldn't need to be asked.

Had two more things I wanted to say.

2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
-The End resetting. If we have a daily Ender Dragon, over a month that is 28 (30 depending on the month) dragon portals scattered around the End. And in that month we will have people scouring the End mining up all they want of End Stone, the Obsidian from the towers, etc.

Can you see where this is going? The End should have a reset time just like the Mining World. The End is infinitely smaller than the Mining World, meaning it can be trashed much quicker. I'd suggest resetting the End monthly, just like we do with the Mining World. It only makes sense if we reset one that we reset the other too.

-Nether lag. I only ever entered the nether once in my time on Noobs and in that time it was so laggy I could hardly even take a step without it taking half a minute to move. I stayed around probably two minutes wondering what the heck was causing so much lag before I bailed back to the regular world.

I would like this problem to be fixed or something to be done about it. I know some towns have outposts in the nether, but there's nothing against paying money out to the towns and giving them forewarning to collect up all their items if what we need is a serious reset of the nether. Towns can always remake outposts with the monetary compensation for this very purpose.

I have to agree with everyone (mostly) that we should lose our items upon death since that is what minecraft is about in a sense. 

Also I would love to see horses like someone else said, SPLEEF, and PVE would be amazing additions also.

1. Would you like to keep your inventory on death, just the hot bar or keep the survival aspect and lose it all? I personally would like to be able to keep inventory when you die. If it is possible keeping exp would be helpful too. In PvP you lose everything.

2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why? If I could add anything to the server, I would add an Anti-Xray plugin. I know that some server cant use them because it can create lag, but I feel that people who use xrays ruin the economy and ruin some of the Mcmmo skills such as Mining and Repair.

3. Whats your favourite activity to do on the server and why? (Skills, Towns, PVP etc.) I love towny. I'm not such a big fan of factions, so when I see a server with towny, I know it has to be good. I would love to see more, and greater towns pop up in the server. Also maybe town wars would be something cool to have.

    I would like to keep just the hotbar
2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
    I would add a super-duper party room for partys.
3. Whats your favourite activity to do on the server and why? (Skills, Towns, PVP etc.)
   My favorite activity is helping in town and upping my skills. For the town part because its fun to help for the skills part so i get diamonds from dirt.

I would like to fight this reset of the Ender world. I understand that people like to kill the Ender Dragon, so I purpose that we can have an event once a month were you can go and kill the Ender Dragon. The same way we have events like PvP arenas and Spleef this can be another good event. Maybe have another portal to this special event, but not having it in the ender world. The Ender world is also endless. It goes on and on, you can build in any direction off the floating island in the ender. I have seen people have bunkers in the ender world and I have a giant project in the ender world currently. So maybe instead of having the world reset, just have a special event where you are warped to a place where you can kill the dragon.

Personally losing it all sounds hard, and a fun challenge. I don't think we should lose it ALL. We have enough people who whine about it when they lose nothing >.>

2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
I'm not sure what its called but there's a mod that when you die, your stuff goes into a privated chest for you to go find. But then they'd be everywhere, so maybe if you were able to make it disappear after a certain time...like an hour?

3. Whats your favourite activity to do on the server and why? (Skills, Towns, PVP etc.)
Skills, it really is fun to watch them go up and what new power you get with them! Pvp is fun when im not scared of losing anything...

Tidal's last comment reminded me of this.

New rules for the PVP arenas.

I am sick of and disgusted at the fact that there is no punishment for people who do not keep their agreements for returning people's items. This is griefing in my opinion. You agreed to give the person back their stuff, meaning you swore to do it and you are bound by that swear to do it. Not returning the person's items is not only breaking a powerful promise but also breaking any trust in both them and the system.

If you can't properly protect people from having their stuff stolen (And I have seen this happen many times while I've been on) then I don't see a reason to have PVP. By the time someone realizes the person they're PVPing with isn't trustworthy to give back their items it's already too late as the items are in the other person's possession.

It should be a rule to save screenshots of both your items before you PVP and all agreements made between two players, which of course must in some way include the time the screenshot was taken for full proof of it. This would be an almost fool-proof way to ensure that PVP is fairly taken care of.

Or there could be some kind of mod for this type of thing. I have absolutely no idea.

1) I hate losing my stuff, but never losing it would seem to easy, so I must regretfully say, I like the survival aspect. Even though I often ragequit because of it.

2) I would like to see a massive 400x400 area walled off (choose somewhere remote) and dotted with little fortresses and castles and bunkers, and used for MASSIVE, and i cannot stress MASSIVE enough, team games of PvP, Capture the Flag, or perhaps a massive last-man-standing mob arena. Mainly, i mean this for towns to be able to have "wars", with two towns agreeing on rules and stuff, a cash prize to the winner, and the two town's armies will then have a purpose. Imagine an army of 12 going up against another army , massive battlefield, capture the flag or something. It would be amusing to watch, and it would be great fun. I must emphasize TEAM BASED, and STRATEGY. Like, cooordinated timed assaults on certain strongholds or bridges, or strategic points, capturing the enemy's "flag" (a red or blue block, respectively). It would add a whole new element to the game, and only towns or greatly funded teams of people (mercenaries perhaps?) could compete in these battles. Sorry for the long explanation, I've just had this bouncing around my head since V3.

3) My favorite activity? Industrialization. Making massive farms, (check out the one in the Forthwind outpost!) massive quarries, (80x80, near the farm!) generally mass producing enormous quantities of stuff, selling them, then wasting the money on frivolous things, or funding towns with them. That, and factions. I've had a faction up since V3, (its been dead), perhaps you've heard of the Enclave, now known as SPECTRE. I love having secret groups like that, shadowy governments and stuff. THat, and of course building for the faction massive underground bunkers, totally self sufficient, no way to the surface, so you cant gt in without someone being there or setting home. Those things saved us from greifers during the temporary iterations of Noobscraft. Untouched, while the surface was ravaged.

Just keep diamond things and items of high worth. Otherwise it would be boring because you cant die properly
2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
I would add a mob arena and more things that you can pay Noobz for when you own a town.
3. Whats your favourite activity to do on the server and why? (Skills, Towns, PVP etc.)
Probably talking to my in game friends and PvP

What linda said, lost it all in PVP and other events, but keep it when you die in the normal worlds.
2. If you could add anything to the server what would you add and why?
More RAM? XD I would also love to do JayJay's idea, but I was wondering that if we do the idea, if I could make the zombie map? I have a pretty good idea for it, and I've always wanted to make one, but I've had worries on how I could get people to play it.
3. Whats your favourite activity to do on the server and why? (Skills, Towns, PVP etc.)
Making friends, talking to friends, having fun with friends, helping people, getting materials for my secret project.
