Melon and pumpkin discussion

[optical]

LOL

I should at least get formal, server-wide recognition for having a farm that was so good the authorities had to intervene.

Quit swinging your dick around before I put a formal end to it.

The opening post says feel free to vent. I didn't realize I was excluded.

Feel free to rage / vent / cry as long as you don't get in the way of real discussion

[cschurz]

Remove market+ economy =problem solves
We didn't have such issue in 1.81 when there was no market.

I realize I have no say in this discussion because I don't have a farm, but it does cause lots of lag for us non-farmers just trying to have fun and survive. If you really wanted to keep farms around but reduce lag, then make 100 stacks of melons like $1 in the market.

I really think that automatic farms should be completely removed because it takes away from the survival aspect of the game. And to my knowledge, no farmer in the US is getting rich off farming. They can hardly survive off.

So what happens if we farm iron by making a iron golem spawner( villagers+doors)
Will iron be removed too? :/

Points like this have been made but if the price keeps going lower, people will just make bigger farms to compensate for the price drops. Bigger farms just make a bigger problem. Removing these farms is the only way to solve the melon and pumpkin farm problem.

What can be done about the money problem is implementing a auction or lottery system on the server. Players bid on items or pay to be in a randomly drawn pool of cash. Either way, it will make a fun, lag-free way of moneymaking.

We not try and make it so pistons cannot destroy melons etc so people cannot afk...

as much as i like the market i think as soon as you take out one thing people will try getting rich on other things, iron, gold redstone(pretty common in my eyes)

HUGE props to Opti and the rest of the decision makers who've finally decided to put an end to this nonsense.  This is, after all, a survival server and the last thing we need is the member world being uglified with giant pumpkin/melon farms when Iron and Gold sell pretty good as-is.
