    I think that the skyblock world could use some improving. First, I think that it is kinda boring having to mine up all the cobblestone. Mabe you could put a stack of cobblestone in the starter chest. Secondly, I think that I get kinda lonely being out there on an island alone in the middle of the sky. Mabe you can put a command that allowes players to invite people onto there skyblock island. I would enjoy that. Lastly, I think that the skyblock idea is a good one. I think you could put more things in the spawn area. Some people that like to hang out in the spawn get board and leave the server. Mabe put chairs and a fake TV in there. If you could help with any of these things, it would be much appreciated. Thank you for your cooperation! fudgemuffin654. PS: vote if you want multiplayer on the skyblock islands.

    We have everything you posted, except the cobble. Give cobblestone would take away from the authenticity of Skyblock here.

    We have multiple players allowed on a Skyblock. Did you try /island help?

    Also, adding a stack of cobble would defeat the purpose of what SkyBlock is about. It's meant for you to figure out how to start with the bare minimum and work your way up to having a thriving and huge island. And a stack of cobble is barely enough cobble to even build anything, so you're still going to have to figure out how to get more cobble in the end. So you might as well start early.

    As for the spawn, the spawn isn't meant to be interesting. If someone doesn't want to play SkyBlock while the main server is restarting, they don't have to. But the spawn is just there for when people join it new or die, it's not meant as a hangout spot.

    Although it happens to be where 20-50 people seem to be every time :/ (some afk some not)
    Would it be possible to add in a small /pvp plot inside the hub, or just make a room next to it with pvp? Just so that the younger players can enjoy whacking each other during the 5-10 mins break? I think it would be a nice solution for players who do not enjoy the repetitive aspect of Skyblock, while not taking too much programming effort.
    (I guess there isn't K2 on /hub right?)

    Maybe add a little parkour puzzle in the /spawn? I know that would be fun, everyone likes jumping puzzles! :D

    Perhaps maybe a shop of some kind for the items that can't be obtained normally in a Skyblock map, such as diamonds or redstone? I know that most people will say that giving diamonds would make it too easy, but in all fairness, most mob "factories" made by players are the sudden death drop type. Very few people, myself included, actually make it to where they keep a sliver of their health (for rare drops). The server(s) is/are set up in a way that when a player votes, they get 200 Dei on the main server, and 300 Dei on the PvP server. Perhaps adding iConomy (200 Dei a vote?) to Skyblock with a shop area for rare/normally Skyblock unobtainable items will increase Skyblock traffic a little? Just an add-on to this "suggestion".

    You can google skyblock goals and work towards those. Otherwise you are just chilling until you can move back to the main world.

    Following what you said, here they are. Note that some of these can't be completed as the sand island that is normally in Skyblock v2 and the Nether aren't available. Impossible goals in ImDeity Skyblock are in bold and marked with a * symbol.

    1) Build a Cobble Stone generator.
    2) Build a house.
    3) Expand the island.

    5) Make a pumpkin farm.
    6) Make a reed/sugarcane farm.
    7) Make a wheat farm.
    8) Make a giant red mushroom.*
    9) Craft a bed.
    10) Make 64 stone bricks.
    11) Make 20 torches.
    12) Make an infinite water source.
    13) Craft a furnace.

    20) Make 10 bread.
    21) Collect 10 Ender-pearls.
    22) Cook 10 fish.
    23) Craft 10 Black Wool.
    24) Craft 10 Gray Wool.
    25) Craft 10 Light Gray Wool.
    26) Craft 10 Lime Green Wool.
    27) Craft 10 Red Wool.
    28) Craft 10 Yellow Wool.

    32) Craft 10 Snow Golems.*
    33) Craft 20 Paintings.
    34) Build and light a nether portal.*
    35) Craft 5 Gold Ingots.*
    36) Craft 16 Glass Panes.*
    37) Collect 50 birch logs.*

    48) Craft 10 wooden pressure plates.
    49) Collect 64 bonemeal.
    50) Craft 20 cobblestone stairs.

    I'm not entirely sure if challenges #8 and #17 are possible or not, because I can't remember if we got red/brown mushrooms in our chest on ImDeity Skyblock. If we do, then they are possible. Vice versa if we don't.

    What you can do to speed up the cobble process is make the generator, but replace the block underneath where the cobble forms, with a sign, then stand under it and leave your mouse pressed down with your keyboard. The sign stops the lava/water flowing down, and the cobble drops through to you :)

    Not sure if you are spamming posts for the Rank upgrades, but it wouldn't hurt to read up.

    Hence the "reading more than the first post before replying" idea that was suggested.

    Don't worry, you'll get used to forums soon enough. They're a big and scary thing at first, and the vets tend to have a bit of a cold-shoulder to the new ones, but you'll discover they're harmless. :)

    I'm going to have to say it seems like the point of skyblock is to provide a spot for the players to be while the main server's under maintenance... why provide a challenge to the players that would rather be doing something else that the players don't want to face?

    I agree. Adding the pvp in it would be nice

    Well, hub is no longer skyblock, but a free (no factions) pvp world

    Kind of hopes it stays that way :) I love this new hub. No rules PVP? With mods trolling? Awesome!
