    i believe that a Rail Should be added in the main world. a rail going North south east and west. just to the 1500 block mark as currently it takes days to walk the distance

    I believe that's what the underground portals in the first world was for. I think they're working on that cave now, so just be patient.

    this has been debated by many members in detail in another thread that i cant be bothered finding at the moment (just go search) but to make a long story short the only way there is gonna be a rail system is if someone builds it legit, mods have other priorities and taking care of a rail system is a full time job.

    ... which isn't possible as 1500 blocks are protected out from spawn...

    That would be fun, but would take a lot of time and effort, by non mods, because they are busy. Maybe get a squad of builders to do it?

    alot, alot of iron. lets do some math, shall we? oh, you have a headache. ill do it.
    ok, 6 iron + 1 stick = 16 rails. x100= 1600. -16 or 32 or 64 or 96. = 1504. 1504 rails. now: calculator time!
    1504 96 divided by 16=6. 100-6= 94. 6x94=564. 564 iron. 94 sticks.

    564 IRON
    94 STICKS

    ^well if the mods funded the expedition by paying people to place the tracks with Dei, then it would be a way to put money into the minecraft economy-- as the people placing the tracks could pay for iron and sticks off other players. think of it as government funding ;)

    + it would raise the value of iron

    Not viable, YOU PAY to put rails, not THE MODS OR THE SERVER THAT PAYS YOU

    Ooh, classy!

    It would take a lot of work, I think, on the Staff's part, to setup a payment system like this. They'd have to create a team, with rules, and overwatch. The idea has merit, though, I'd say.

    thats why the mods paying players will work. because it may attract the interest of towns or new players who wish to create a town

    See, I'd have no problem doing this. Sounds like fun, and I personally love the idea of being able to reach places via transport that I'd otherwise /t spawn to (or, more likely, not visit).

    Abandoned mines are great sources of free rails, too, and <10 stacks of iron isn't hard at all between a handful of people. Maybe 10-15 hours mining, tops? (94 sticks is a laughably small quantity not worth responding to... ;) )

    But you can't build that close to spawn unless you're a superhero. Or Mod, or whatnot. Remember?

    Yes thats true, me and my friend will start a town, its alredy a village but, we dont have money to make it town, but so far no one has greifed us, we need 20.000 dei to start the town, i know how to mine, before the reset i had a total of 40 blocks of iron, around 5 or 6 stacks of iron ingots that is

    Yes thats a problem too, we would need a sub-admin or Deity himself to allow us to build there or do it for us

    then maybe the admins can make a deposit chest so that players deposit the goods required to make the rail.

    once the amount has been reached the admins could create the rail (through god powers) and destroy the goods in the chest.

    Edit: Further more. Each direction could be a seperate project so different towns would support different directions
