Are you going to have builders? people to create your world? Or is everyone going to start from scratch?

everyone will start from scratch, including myself. The only people who will have creative mode are players who participate in group project events and for perma creative mode, those who pay $xx amount per month. $xx = 1 month creative mode. Part of the reason all other attempts to start a minecraft failed is because it could not maintain funding.

Edit: also, there will be an application process for becoming moderators/admins.
Admins will have the ability to ban and remove players for misconduct. Due to admins needing a form of evidence to base a ban on, they will be able to teleport, use fly commands, and invisible commands to catch bad guys in the act.

Moderators will be what the admin is plus more. A moderator will be similar to what a clan member here at IBIS is. for minecraft, they will help with server decisions and managment.

These roles still need to be thought out. A source of income is a must so i do not think i will be changing my mind regarding creative mode.


how does $5.99 for creative mode
a total of $7.99 for creative mode + admin abilities.

Might work for some people but I know I'm not paying monthly for building mode in minecraft where other servers let you do it for free.

Any suggestions? I dont want players to just HAVE creative mode but would like the server to pay for itself.

Well I like just building shit. So you want something put up somewhere? I can do that. Let the regular people play the way you intend. But if you want random settlements or shops and what not. hell you could even have quests, collect so many whatevers for a reward, what kind of thing.

the quest thing is not a bad idea, moderators would essentially be builders. I think this can work without much abuse as i found a server logger that logs player commands one themselves and on others. auditing these command lines after hearing complaints will be useful for substantiating evidence regarding ban requests.
