well davon:

"able to collect string, feather etc easily"
- accepted
"can make pxls easily "
-move it to disadvantages
"third, works as an alternative instead of mining continously, to make money, which makes it more fun."
- No it is no alternative cause u need about 10 sec to kill 5zombies and u need about 5min to find 1gold (with the right strategy) so its not a alternative, if u have a pxl maschine u never have to go mineing anymore.

"Fourth, people get jealous. "
i think u mean me.
than i have to tell u something: I know that its really hard work to dig a monstertrap and for people like u its probably the best and usefullest they ever have build and they are verry proud of themselfs i can understand that. But pls understand that there are other players on the server, who think about the system itself and try to help to balance it. If someone hits ur existence that way dont think that he is jealous, even if u dont know him, so pls get out of ur puberty and come to the reality.

Mob trap, Pixl trap

I personally don't think that a mob trap should used to make pixl, it breaks the whole process of fighting mobs.
And in a sense a mob trap is also exploiting that fact as well, but it has become so normal to a every day
minecrafter tool that has become a necessity.

Bottom line
I say ban pixl traps, but allow mob traps.

Economy

Our economy is based on laziness if people don't want to go mining or hunting for the item they will just buy it.
Everyone can do everything, there is no way to specialize or have a profession that allows them self's to strive,
or to set them self's from the rest. One person could just log in and make a entire plantation, while the guy who
has been selling plants will be out of luck because anyone could do his job, that goes double for mining.

The problem with are economy is that everyone can do everyone else's job and there is no point to buying and
selling, unless there to tired, rich, poor, or lazy. What we need is not a money reset, but a way to make us different
from the rest, to make people who have been mining all the time better, or making people who have been farming better,
a way to give people a "foot hold" a specialization. Like how you would go to a farm for food, or go to a miner for ores,
go to a banker to store money, a shoe maker for shoes....

Bottom line
Economy based on laziness, no money reset, Specializations.
what u say is not possible in minecraft, maybe in a mod but i dont think that heinz would like that.
The economie is broken cause nobody is lazy/ everybody want to be in the money top list.
BUT if guys can get money even if their are lazy and also much more than the others without doing anything: The economie would break down. Now we have this: the pxls are theoretical worthless cause u can have so much u want but there is also a fight about the top money list. So the pxl reach one new highs after the other and lost any conection to the goods u can buy for it. Imagine if laser will buy gold for all his money, what would stx usually do if he finds a chest full of gold stacks?

So we need to stop that sh*t and we need probably a money reset cause our economie will not be instant repaired cause all the money wich was made with pxl maschines.

And thats not cause i want to plague u all its just for our economie and the server. (and dont call me jelious :nutty: )

Debate was answered, this is cheating the system. If you are found doing it your will get your pxlz reset.

Is this still up to date? I found a mobtrap where a player just stands next to it with a sword and the mobs keep comming. It is located in the free world.
