A trade bord

E.g i nice board with loads signs on people can leave messages or ask for trades on it.

Exactly what I had in mind, along with plenty of signposts, maybe moving the donations hut closer (think everyone's forgotten about it where it is) and other than that a smart little park

Just my luck to get gazzab comment lol
 
The game started slowing down hugely when loading chunks earlier on today. Pressed F3, and lol'ed.

The red just carried on colouring in my screen. No idea what caused the slowdown, can anyone tell from that screenshot?

If you have a 64bit OS then get 64 bit java will help. That may help. Also check if other programs running e.g virus scanner scanning

Give the plot to a new player imo, it's a nice small plot for starting and means they can have a /spawn home too :)

It's a huge plot! :D

I thought it'd be good to keep that bit unobstructed so players, especially new players can get their bearings. You can see the balloon hub, overground rail, saloon and whatnot from there and it can all be signposted more clearly.

But yeah everyone throw in your opinions, before someone builds a mob spawner there to harvest all those mobs beneath spawn :p

That's awesome man! Caught me off guard though eh

I've found out the reason for the current lack of slimes in my mine, they're all spawning on the floor above... it'll be fixed within the hour. That's also making me believe a second floor won't make any difference to the spawn rate so I'm gonna scrap that idea.

If you want it less cluttered move some of the buildings there of people who no longer play and allow new players to build in the area. Spawn itself is pretty pointless though, there's little reason to go there unless you're going to the balloon station or Nether. Long tracks have been made pointless by the balloon station so it's not as if we can use the space for a station.
 
There's tons of spawners mate, I don't think there's any point spending the time on it when there's so many mountains out there waiting to be hollowed out :)
 
I hope no-one gets angry at me. After talking with Nutty, I went ahead and built a small test in the spawn area. I'm trying to find the most efficient way of making a vertical transport with rails while keeping it to a 4x2 footprint for the rails themselves. if anyone skilled with working with rails sees this, could you tell me how I could improve it by looking at what I've constructed? If it can go smaller, that'd be brilliant, but it needs to not hurt the passenger of the cart.

To admin: I will be taking it down as soon as I get some feedback on it. On top of this, it only takes up a relatively small area, so hopefully I haven't overstepped the mark.

If you're trying to test something could you not have done it somewhere else? The spawn area shouldn't be used for this sort of thing really - it should be there for people to make small complete builds, not as an industrial wasteland filled with tests and partial builds.
