With the current state of key plugins, I think it is wise to get a fresh map for this server.
But I want a few things before getting a new map:
1. No more towny. One of the biggest downside of towny was that you had to recruit people into your town to gain more plots, thus strictly limiting some towns' sizes. It is true that this method prevents abusive players conquering the entire land surrounding spawn, but collateral damage from such measurement is too big. Instead of towny, I think griefprevntion has done a pretty good job for last few weeks. And to replace /t outpost, alternative plugins like mywarp could be cool too.
2. If we are keeping economy, the spawn store we have right now should be rebuilt.
3. Players should be able to keep some of their items. Someone suggested about players being able to keep their items in enderchest and character inventory. I like that idea.
4.

I personally think we should wait for 1.5 first, there seems to quite a sum of changes including a new ore. Wouldn't make sense to change it now and be in the same situation in a month or so when 1.5 appears
As far as I know, 1.5 should be coming out in a month or two. If this is true, it wouldn't make sense to explore a huge chunk of land before update and forcing players to go further for the said new ore when the server is updated.
Also, if we could assign a second permanent admin (as in, a person who can actually update server) for this server, that would be great too. As far as I know, whymeman is only a temporary admin with some admin commands in-server only, and ephemeral is the only
active permanent admin. With ephemeral being too busy with his schoolwork (right?), we should have another person keeping up with plugin and minecraft updates.
That's all I have to say for this matter.
