    These are just some ideas i thought for build.

    A JrBuilder rank. Like an apprentice for the builders and such, people who have great potential to be builders but just dont have the knowhow and what to do like the builders do. Can be assistants, etc. (Does not have to be a progression system like JrBuilder to Builder like JrMod to Mod, if they are qualified enough for builder they dont need the jr builder rank.)

    More maps for regular people. 5-7 would be nice instead of 2 for the non-vip+.

    Make build fully 1.9 efficient. Do you the possibilities with the end rods, the chorus stuff, etc? It would be amazing.

    Short simple ideas.

    Meh on this one. I know the whole assistant, but I would like it so you build, or you don't. You already have access to the maps, so it would be kind of pointless. (Unless I'm interpreting this wrong, if so, inform me). The point of junior mod is so moderators can learn without too much trouble (For example, they can only kick so if it was a false kick than the player just got booted, not banned forever.)

    After the EULA, we can't sell maps and we can't give away maps with ranks, so yes. It would make people stay longer and hopefully try out different gamemodes and merge into the community. +1

    Here is the problem, for Build I would be fine for 1.9. However, you can not really have separate gamemodes with separate
    modes. It gets confusing for the player, never mind the server. I think that has been talked about somewhere.

    Exactly why JrBuilder can be a thing, this can be for the people who dont know everything and what to do with worldedit and stuff. Its like JrMod but for build server as the builders can teach JrBuilders how to do more complex commands, etc. I realize you can learn all of it by yourself, but its also for the builders as it gives them something to do besides constantly building maps for the server(Thanks builders and other map creatures btw).

    Agreed.

    I should of been more specific, make the build server able to use more 1.9 items if it can, People can use the dragon head trophy. Why cant we use end rods which will be glorious for builds. I also dont see why its so confusing? Can you explain more please

    Yeah, must have misunderstood you. I don't know why some are introduced and some aren't (A coder can probably tell me) But for completely updating, the argument is 1.9 has HORRIBLE mechanics, and it would be really bad for PvP gamemodes. The solution would be to just apply it to build, but when I talked about this to a friend they said that it would be very hard for "network issues". Not an avid coder, but it seems hard. It might work because unlike Munchy it doesn't run the multiverse, it actually has separate servers.

    Might be wrong though, what do I know /shrug.

    Aye. Its completely okay if ya misunderstood, many people misunderstand me because I suck at description. I do imagine that making it fully 1.9 would be harder.

    Honestly I think it's a good idea but a lot of players have potential & talent - There would be too many JrBuilders. But then again, there's the creative ranks you can apply for and practice World Edit. I agree with what @aGuyInAsuite said, you don't have access to the maps that the Builders are working on so how do expect to help as an "assistant"?

    What purpose would this rank serve? The main build projects are not hosted on build, and the main perk of builder is to access that server. If they aren't qualified for full builder, they wouldn't be given access to that server. You'd be giving a bunch of people free elite essentially. Plus, more ranks and things to keep track of isn't always the best thing.

    I agree on this. The map limit should definitely be expanded to 4-5, as sometimes people don't want to clear their builds to make room for more.

    When 1.8 becomes obsolete to use on the network, build will probably update. Right now, there are other non-build servers that don't work well with 1.9, and switching to 1.9 fully would probably make it a pain to log into the server (having to exit client and switch versions to go between multiple brawl servers)

    I would say there can be a limit on JrBuilders that way there wouldnt be too many. Prove yourself trustworthy to be permed and ask if you can help in any way. I give advice to the builders who are building ctf maps where abusable spots could be and should be fixed.


    JrBuilder could be like an apprenticeship, people who are qualified(at least in personality and building) for builder but dont have the knowhow for worldedit like the builders do. I understand that the more ranks and things to track of would be a pain, but hey, its just an idea. I never expect my ideas to be accepted and if they are but there are issues, there can always be a work around.

    Exactly my point

    I understand that fully 1.9 switching would cause more problems then its worth atm. What i would like though is more of the 1.9 items to be allowed in build, I just imagine the possibilities with end rods in ctf maps and normal maps.

    Thank you for feedback, and thank you anyone else who gives feedback.

    If you promote everyone who does that, you'd already have too many. People can already give advice/help out without even having a rank.

    If they're qualified for personality and want to help out they can apply for moderator. If they are qualified for builds, they can apply for builder. If they are lacking in any category, they can apply for creative ranks. There's always something that most people are fit for. By the way, it's usually the other way around (qualified with worldedit, not qualified with builds). I don't think there should be a work around for something that isn't broken.

    It's already a mess allowing two versions to join and interact. Allowing blocks to be placed would mean 1.8 users would see stone or some mess that might screw up the creation. I understand the possibilities however, and look forward to it!

    JrBuilders would just be too much to handle I'm afraid. Honestly if you don't know any WE commands then you're not really qualified to become any sort of official Builder. We're looking for members who are passionate in building.
