cmd that shows which staff members are in the private staff-only irc channel
"Death Run hour"
Vote to end the round at 10:00
Freebuild map for players that are dead/reimplement building in the afterlife
Waste of resources + too many people thinking it's ok to grief the afterlife and build swastikas there because "hey, it's the afterlife!" You shouldn't be rewarded for losing all of your lives.
/hug, /highfive, /lick for players, or any other command that can be imitated with /me
Use /me.
Sponge donations
/donate player money 6.
Larger spawns
Would promote spawn camping. Staff members can easily extend the spawn by five blocks in only a few seconds by placing 4 sponges.
"New disasters"
A command that organizes events on the server
Doesn't happen often enough. Staff members are perfectly capable of organizing these things without a command.
A command that explains each rule in /rules
This is an op's job. The rules are extremely simple and each one can be explained in one line.
Make /undo work for offline players
Short answer: The server would explode.
Prevent freeze evasion by saving the player's status as frozen for 15 minutes
Freeze evasion isn't a problem; we simply ban anyone that does it.
A command that displays the rules and how to earn cookies to the entire chat
Pointless + would spam the chat. Op+ can send the rules to players privately and there's a message that tells players to type /rules before they enter the portal in the lobby.
Include safe zone information in /me
Safe zones are being removed. Won't be needed.
Rule that prevents others from entering your house
If you think our server needs a rule like this, our server is not for you.
Sell lives for cookies
Cookie distribution and the /store would have to be completely reworked because so many players have hundreds of lives.
Less cookies for surviving a cold water round
No point in doing this. Cold water rounds are usually furious, so they're actually harder than calm lava rounds.
Nominating next map
Too many reasons. Read the thread.
"Hardcore" mode
/hardcore added by WinX.
cmd to reset block bar
Impossible + don't be lazy.
Remove all active_lava from the map before the round ends.
Pointless + insane amount of lag.
"Banking cookies"
Defeats the purpose of /ironman.
Advanced physics option/"Have lava affected by gravity"
Too much work, lag, and would rarely, if ever, be used.
"Spectator rank"
Lives are easy to get and it could be used to harass other players.
Second server
Too many reasons. Never going to happen.
Make sponge buildings underwater against the rules
Not even relevant anymore. Players can build sponge houses if they want to.
Pay cookies to change the mood
Unfair. Players with tons of cookies could use it to "grief" others houses.
"Instant" houses/cuboid for players
/z could easily be used to grief and many consecutive cuboids can lag the server.
"You are banned!" screen shows which staff member banned you
Not enough room. Information is not that important anyway.
A cmd that allows you to become a "ghost" if you lose all your lives
Ask for a life.
More ranks
Being able to donate unlimited cookies to others in one round
Donations are limited to 3 per round to prevent cookie farming.
More player slots
Not possible. 30 is perfect for the maps we have anyway.
A /store for staff
Staff members have unlimited sponges and lives.
Shorter rounds
The current length of rounds has been tested for years. It's perfect for the kind of gameplay we want.
More powerful sponges
Sponges are powerful enough. Even /sponge 3 can lag the server a lot.
Reserved slots for trusted players
Trusted players are players, not ops, so no.
A tutorial map
The game is self-explanatory.
/tp for players.
Would defeat the purpose of the game.
Remove /mood 3
/about for players
Could be used to frame other players.
Allow users to toggle their own block protection
Could be used to grief.
Numerical value displayed when the speed is changed
Wouldn't make any more sense than "Llama".

Make /join available to guests+ (an invitation from /join can now be bought from the /store by any rank + players can send an invitation to any trusted+ for free)
