The first is inconvenient for day-to-day use, and instead you could just disable commands during combat to prevent people from escaping.
Having no unconnected claimed chunks means that people will not build anything outside of their base, so there will be no player cities or embassies.
Being unable to claim chunks in the nether creates massive vulnerabilities in people's bases which means that they have no choice but to live inside a two block high obsidian vault to prevent random people from making portals inside their bases.

Possibly, but…

3 seconds is too short of a time after combat ends, you could just run around and escape in a few seconds.
>Unconnected chunks, nether claming disabled
No one was building anything outside their bases for the most part anyway. And there are ways around the nether portals.

Yes, they are effective at protecting stuff, but they don't make for an enjoyable atmosphere imo. Players should have more of an incentive to roleplay, politik and build, as opposed to lolrandom raiding when everyone's offline.

Cobblemonsters aren't a bad thing in general, they allow meme bases to be more easily raided, thing is that with everyone asking for unconnected claims it allows people to claim a chunk, go to max altitude and cobble from there without anyone being able to stop it with a moderate ease.

Since we'll probably be resetting to update to 1.9 when all the plugins are updated, I think for this iteration we'll go with cobblemonsters being disabled and TNT going through water, but with much higher blast resistance for materials.
We'll see how it works, and if it turns out shit, we'll go back to traditional Polandcraft physics / configs. But the way I see it, our server has been spiraling the drain for a long time, and I want to shake the foundation and bring something new and fresh.

If I may throw in my thing, I also think spread-out towns/cities are better than autism boxes and such because of how concentrated everything is.
If you attack an autism box, everything is concentrated there that the faction has. It's easy-pickings. It can also be easily done by one person.
If you attack a town, it's spread-out with different buildings, which means you'll have to go through each one. That, and an attack on a town would probably need more than one persons depending on the size.
That, and if the unconnected chunks doesn't prevent this, multiple towns would multiply the difficulty of raiding a town, since there are others which, depending on location and strength, can help out.
In short, in my view, it's better to have a decentralized system of towns and municipalities than it is to have a single centralized autism box where the entire faction is concentrated.
Just throwing that out there.

Would anyone be willing to form a union of factions, and work out a proper monetary system?
My idea is that factions would voluntarily join an alliance with the faction called the 'Commonwealth Bank' or something, run by either myself, or some other devoted player.
Each leader of every faction that is part of the alliance would represent their faction, in a council.
Each bank note would be worth one diamond, and if need be, additional note's would be split into halves (emeralds), thirds (iron) and quarters (lapis).
Notes would be made from a book and quill, so that it can be verified by a player name. This way counterfeits would be easily spotted from real currency.
Sounds jewy as fuck, but I think it'd be really fun to attempt, and see how long before it crashes. It might even work out really well in the end.

Well, it could be a no power loss zone with friendly fire enabled, difficult to say if it could be made in the "safe zone". If things are really dire, I can try to build it manualy in my free time.

Side note, due to me being an idiot at 2 AM there is an incomplete version of the previously mentioned tower of souls somewhere in the map. I've been scouring the map trying to find it but if can't, I'll handsomely reward the first person to find it.

People are always going to declare war on SPQR, so anything we made outside would be destroyed within a day. They are never going to like us because they want us gone and always have. They will always find an excuse to attack us, and therefore we will continue to make defensible bases.
Civility requires universal cooperation, and this just not possible.
Tower bases are not a sudden idea, but something which evolved over several years due to necessity. Everything we ever make on the surface is vandalised without exception.

SPQR only attacks when provoked, they don't attack weaker factions out of the blue. The exeption is when one of their members wants to do something stupid on his own, example being ivecoveredwars cobbling corinth.

It's all part of the art of war. If a faction is universally hated, they will always be attacked until they repair their reputation.
I know you guys have a good side, so I (CarChuck) plan on having a good relationship with SPQR, for the purpose of furthering this "creative revolution" as so I've explained above.
It'd be really awesome if you guys followed suit too, because I think this would make the atmosphere on polandraft so much better and cooperative, and fill the overworld with beautiful structures.

We will always be attacked because we are the largest faction; people do not need any other reason than this.
I would like to make nice things which are not protected, but whenever we do, they are always destroyed. Sometimes this is by another faction, but more often than not it is just a random individual with a grudge. There is no way to avoid this other than by making secure bases, and we are always the largest target.

That worked so well right? I see that corinth was blooming with life after the cobble was cleaned from there right? Its not like we had to wait for weeks or something, or the goodwill of the admin being active.
You see, although Owen is showing interest, life is life, it happens, maybe he'll have to be less active for some period of time, maybe he won't be able to come online for much, only for cleaning up lag. What I mean is we shouldn't rely on the admin to cleanup after someone takes a dump on the server

We need the mechanism of lava turning into cobble in order to create things. Without that, towers will take so long that we will have to make obsidian vault bases.

I've always wondered why you don't just make a vault, then build a town or city above it? That's what Papal States did and it more or less worked out for them, up until I resigned.
No.2512
>>2510
Because the town/city would end up being destroyed and then we would have to move the vault because the area above it looks bad.
No.2513
>>2512
You'd have to do the same if the cube were to be raided. If the city is raided it helps the roleplay if they get to the city vault to try to get their spoils right? It sounds interesting to me, makes me interested if making battles that matter instead of shitting on cities and making them deserted.

that's the point. One faction who decides to chop obsidian for hours shouldn't have so much power to defend themselves, just for grinding.
Totally unfair to new players who just want to roleplay, build, and have a good time. These people get fucked in the end, because power hungry autists just end up sitting in their cubes all day, bored out of their minds, grinding enchantments to fight.
Cubes are boring, dull, and nearly impossible to raid under the right circumstances, above ground buildings encourage group PVP on battlefields, and proper sieging.
Cubes are all fucking underground, and look like ass. Not creative at all.
It's better this way schlomo maximus.
