Title: BookShelf
Post by: Debu on April 23, 2014, 09:30:49 AM
Write books in minecraft and store them in bookcases which function as shelves. They have many more features.

I like it though it would be useless. Why the hell do you need a chest in which you can store only books? All it does is waste memory.

Debu, this is what Migas was talking about in your application. Its a decent plugin, but its uses are too random and not really fitting for the server.

But the book UI is just what makes it usefull *atleast what I think* for then the guides could be put into the books and distributed amongst players :)

I believe there is only one good use for this.
Someone would build a library (obviously 7thMuse), we would have a librarian (Someone who has no social skills, I volunteer Alness) who can put the books on the correct shelves. That could be a new way of making money, writing a good book for the library.

So that's where we are going? Ok.... It's on

I'm not saying that this plugin is what we need, each and everything in minecraft can be created with a little bit of creativity. No matter how many books you write when this plugin is activated, it will still store the books in the exact same manner it would have done without the plugin. If you guys are really into writing books or helping each other, you should come together make a library, just out of chests. It doesn't seem hard does it? If its money your wanting for the books, its prolly not going to be a good one.

Why cant we just come together and create a library; and why only a library? Why not many other things? People on this server are just focusing on their personal goals, very few are willing to work together.

I'd be really happy to create a public library and also write books for it. The only problem would be people stealing them..

As fun as this plugin might be, it is not really something that could benefit the server in terms of productivity. We want to try and use our resources (memory) as best as possible and not waste it. If you want to build your own library, go ahead and do it, but we don't need a plugin for that.

By people on this server, you are stereotyping everybody and its not really nice to say that people are not willing to work together and focus on their personal goals (as you seem to be doing now). If it is something that a lot of people want and don't need, it is probably not going to be implemented on the server. There needs to be an overwhelming response for a plugin like this.

I can build up a library but no one will come to it and neither will many people care to write books.

The Bazzar project started out well, it was going on but then other similar projects such as the Bazzar started up. The same thing is happening to Lideons town. Why not keep his town as the Central area for all towns instead of creating more and more warps to towns. I dont offend anyone or their project. People just get into their own and put it up as a challenge that I can do better. I don't think way. I try to help them out and get their job better. Like I said earlier, there can be nothing which is flawless unless it has a flaw.

Basically I want to unite the people better.

The 1.8 update will fix that as copied books will be named as 'copy of original' and  a copy of a copy will be available but cant be copied further :D

This plugin is not needed. Rather save the memory for other useful plugins.

If people don't want to come your library, then that's their choice, you cannot force them to show up there. Also, if people want to create their own town and make it a shop town, we are not here to say there can be only one shop town and that is it. If you think you were the first to come up with the idea for a town like yours, you are not. There were several other attempts, but most of them did not pick off the ground much. I remember IamSwifteh telling me that Raymere might become a town with lots of shopping, but it never happened. Bottom line is, you can't force people to think and do things the way that you like...

Trying to unite people through various activities doesn't mean I'm forcing people to do things.

This Conversation ends and I also announce a possible library at Pandora so get writing books, it will be steal proof.

I don't understand what you mean by unite people, but I'm locking the topic.
