    I have always liked the idea of a pumpkin appearing on your head when you left click. I know that there are many threads on this, but hopefully you will get the point of this one.
    Usually when a person suggests to have a pumpkin head appear on your body, the thread gets locked by a moderator.
    This is because people see it as very bad for the users that do not have the Mc-War Texture Pack installed.
    Well, why not have an option to where the scope can be turned on or off?
    For example-
    /Scope on
    Or
    /Scope Off

    But many players new to the servers may not know how to turn this off.

    So have it off by default!

    The scope will not be a major change whatsoever. It will not be too hard to code, either. It will be an option of preferability.

    Thank you for reading my purely opinionated response. Credit to BrawlerAce to the /scope command idea.

    Scope Command solves all current problems
    Be sure to have it toggled off by default.

    I don't even remember saying that ._.
    This was suggested before, but everyone ignored it. This would definitely solve a lot of problems with the scope, although it should be off by default, as said above. Another option is to have the option to turn on the scope for certain guns in the gun menu. For instance:
    >open the gun menu
    >click on an item
    Here's where I'm really not too sure. We could:
    1. Have a global scope for all weapons. It would either be on or off.
    2. Have an option to toggle the scope for individual weapons. Would require more work, but it makes the thing quite customizable.
    3. Have an option to toggle the scope for types of weapons. Examples could be sniper rifles, assault rifles, pistols, SMGs, etc.

    I just thought of something. Using the new shaders, we could have more than one type of scope, which makes it extremely customizable. Take a look at 1.8's new spectator system. You can see the world from a mob's perspective, and they have a pumpkin blur-like thing that you can see out of, in addition to the different coloring.

    yes! I can't believe that someone hasn't suggested this already!
    I would love to have an actual sniper scope

    A toggleable scope? Now that definitely sounds like a good idea. :smile:
