    i think we can enable TNT, but ONLY if we make a plugint that:
    - makes possible for players to put a restricted amount of TNT a every 24 h (i am thinking about 1-5 blosks of TNT)
    - does not allow puting TNT if a TNT block is close or at detonation
    - does not allow TNT in main world only in mine world
    With a plugin like this, TNT will be used for his orginal goal, to mine

    A restricted amount doesn't matter, multiple people can still use it at the same time, that aspect of the plugin would be useless over 2600 people are on a day and 10 of them could easily use it all at once, having a safety distance might work but it can still be used in large quantities over a longer period of time to destroy a persons home. Making it only available in one world would be extremely hard to do, a plugin is meant to be for the whole server not for a selected world that is part of the server, unless you make it so you have a selection screen for which worlds to turn TNT on/off for then I don't see such a thing being made. Is it better to make a plugin that might work well or better to not make that plugin and just keep TNT off for good? I think off for good.

    What if it was enabled, but could not explode? then it could be used for art purposes, but wouldnt be dangerous

    last time I recall a server turning on TnT, we got lowbies complaining there next door neighbour had setup landmines, 2 blocks dirt dug down tnt placed dirt ontop of tntn + pressure plate.... it would cause much un-needed headaches..

    On a different server we have a plugin that stopped TNT from doing actual damage to the blocks and players but only actually affected the mobs themselves, they would still take damage but everything else remained the same, it was able to be used as decoration and it hasn't caused any problems since, its not used as a griefing tool because all the grief possible features have been disabled, it is still enabled but we also have it on for creepers, they do damage to players but not to the blocks. If any staff know about it though I'm sure they have had good reason not to implemented it on the server.

    I agree with all the positives of tnt, but the negatives far outweigh them,

    Still think with a TnT nurf pluggin you can set damage to blocks and players to false while in the main world while making TnT do 5x as much block damage while still not destroying the items dropped this way people can mine stone, sand, ores, etc much faster and giving us a use of our sulpher/gunpowder until enchanting is enabled(someone please confirm i aint crazy the name doesnt change daily?????).

    well......i know that using tnt was disabled because of greifing probabilities,but i wish we could use tnt for some other intention......like fireworks.....tnt could be launched into the air in a specific area in the main world. it would be a great event to see

    Still not convinced, the cons grossely outnumber the advantages.

    Cons:

    - Lag
    - Clearing land (Not flat.)
    - Landmines
    - More ways of killing players
    - No control over destruction

    Pro's:
    - Clearing land
    - Looks pretty
    - Decoration
