Before you turnaround and say scam, please read the full description of the suggestion since the scamming rule would still be in place for players and there would still be rules against bugs.

1. Is your idea logical? Yes.
2. Could it be done easily?  Maybe, it depends on how the coding is for selling items in normal shops and the black market shop.
3. Has something like it been done before? Not that I am aware.
4. Has this idea been suggested before? Not that I am aware of with these searches:

No results:

Fake rare, Fake rares, fake rare shop, and fake rares shop.

Some results but not completely the same:

Rare Shop, Rares Shop, Rare, and Rares.

[/spoiler]

Fake Rares:

With the fake rares, since in the past it has been suggested to be able to buy/sell rares from the shop, you can sell and buy fake rares in a shop in the black market.  There would have to be something noticeable about the fakes (Maybe when and if the server updates to at least 1.13) to let known players they are fakes by a slight difference in appearance but to new people, It can fool them.  Not all rares should be faked, just the ones that could make a difference in deterring or luring in people.

Some basic rules with them even though some are clearly stated:

1) No trading a fake rares as a real rares.  In other words no scamming people with the fakes.
2) Do not try to sell fake rares in chests as real rares.  Scamming yet again.
3) Do not try to craft them outside of the normal way of getting them.  Abusing bugs.
4) When claiming your lost fake items, don't try to get the real item from Silas and/or approved staff.  I know this could be a deal breaker on seeing if this gets implemented if steps are not made to make sure they can check for these things.
5) You can only trade fake rares to the black market admin shop or if Silas wants to make the black market more lively, players can sell to other players in the black market but have to have it clearly labeled.

Fake Rare Shop (Player to Admin Shop Only):

Here you will be able to buy/sell fake rares.  Possibly there is only some of the time so you have a hit and miss of getting the shop (Get it, "rare" shop ).  Maybe during events or during certain events to counter money gains vs rare gains like block parties in NA time zones or the set of time, there would be a block party when Non-NA time zone events are being held.  (See below for full reasoning on this)

Possible fake rare to real rare conversion:

Maybe if you get a good enough representation with this shop, you can then sell rares to the shop at a certain level, then at the highest level, you can buy rares.  This will also help find out if someone is duping fake rares to get real ones in logs too so there isn't just crafting recipe that makes rares from fake rares.  The levels could be how "bad" you are in the prison each week to unlock pvp rares and then it resets.  Bad as in killing guards, getting jailed, or getting several warnings each day.  While the levels could also be how "good" you are in the prison each week to unlock non-pvp rares and then it resets.  Good as in mining, chopping down trees, and just doing your time without misbehaving (Like breaking the rules).


Any thoughts and suggestions that could improve this idea?  I would love to hear feedback from you all.  Also, if you would like me to make pictures of this idea, I can see if I can spend the time to do so for example purposes.

Thank you for your time,

Headless.

Bug: The Plunger not working
Where: The plunger item
How: click some one with it and it does nothing also it has a ten minute cool down for some reason ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What is the bug:
I didn't get my crates or swords from buying perm donor (i know it was cause my inv was full but dogtag said to report it)
Where is this bug located:
My inventory (actually it isn't cause the items aren't there)
How can we recreate it:
buy perm donor and don't have enough space for the items


I bought perm donor, but my inv wasn't completely empty, so i lost the crates and swords (no they didn't drop on the ground). Dogtag said to report it so report it, and i am.

Who banned you? Dogtag93
When were you banned? (Time/Date) May 13, 2019, 6:11 pm
Why were you banned? Bypass
Are you at fault? Yes
What was your rank on MCP? Citizen
Why should we unban you? I feel I should be unbanned as I had accidentally logged in my alt while trying to join another server, seeing as my main account was banned for x-ray I got banned for bypass. I don't blame Dogtag for doing what he did he's just doing his job. I have served my 2 week ban from X-raying on my main. If I do need to serve time I will do. I would just like to be unbanned to play the server again and hang out with friends on there.
Where you fined and do you think you deserve reimbursement? I was fined on my main.
Additional info:

So I know that I haven't been active either lately, but I was just wondering if there is anything coming up soon that might increase MCP's playercount. I feel like players attract more players, like if MCP has 10 people on, I will definitely hop on, but when MCP has 3 people on, its kind of like whats the point. Does anyone know if there are any updates/events coming up that will increase playercount?

What is the bug: Able to trade with villagers
Where is this bug located: Free World
How can we recreate it: Hold tempered glass and shift right click on the villager with no diamonds in your inventory.
Proof: (it’ll probably fail when i embed this but oh well)

How Long Have You Played On MCP? I started playing on MCP at the beginning of September in 2018, V6.2.

Have You Ever Been: Banned, Muted, Kicked? No, I have not been.

If You Have Been, Why, And For How Long? N/A

What is your current playtime on the server? My current playtime on MCP is 523 hours and it’s rapidly increasing as I’m a very active player. I had 210ish hours on the last version.

When can you play on MCP? I can play on MCP at any time. I am usually on during school hours and the “night shift”. I also use minechat, so I can hop on even if I don’t have access to a computer.

What is your rank on the server? Baron

Why Should We Pick You To Be Our Next Moderator? I believe I should be chosen to be the next MCP moderator because I feel as if this position could help me better myself as a person and help the community at the same time. I enjoy playing on the server in my free time and I would be even more helpful as a moderator. I get along with all staff and majority of players on the server and help out everyone I can. All of my choices would be fair and backed up if needed; I understand and follow all server and moderator rules. I am very involved in the community through discord, forums, sometimes teamspeak, and of course the server. I would be glad to hold a good job moderator position to help out the server. I also plan on donating soonTM.

Additional Information: From how many times I’ve applied in the past, it’s quite obvious I’m very passionate about this position. I will admit, I’ve had a toxic past on MCP but I do hope that can be overlooked as I’ve matured and am making a better person of myself on MCP. I understand there may or may not be a moderator position open at the moment but I still want to try! I do try to vote daily and advertise the server on social media as well to attract new players. I can also help players that may not speak English; German/Dutch, in /m of course. 

(I do update my hours, hence the occasional modifications)

But we can’t forget, tiss but a scratch! Thank you for taking your time and consideration to read my moderator application! ❤️

After you place down diorite seemingly anywhere in E mine, it will act like a wall or any other indestructible part of the prison, as trying to break it will only make it reappear. Please fix this so I can pick up my TV Static again.

I’m afraid I have to announce that I am going to be leaving MCP. There are many reasons as to why I am doing this and some of those reasons which is what I think to be the number one reason is the fact that I can’t find enough time to get on for a long period of time. Another reason that I feel like I need to leave is the fact that I am not as good at pvp as some people might think I am and I know pvp is a part of the server but it is a really hard pill to swallow as you lose your items that you spent so much time grinding out money and points to be able to get that far whether it’s out in the free world from hostile mobs or lava or your doing 1v1s in the C block and playing for keeps. One question I feel like I will get asked is am I going to continue playing MCP in the future or when the next V hits and the answer is most likely not even though I don’t want to leave all the people that I have known for roughly 6 years but I may hop on just to say hi and who knows I may decide to stick around for some time. I’m just glad I was able to meet a lot of awesome people that made this server a better place not just for me but for a lot of other people aswell and even though some of them didn’t stick around there’s still a lot of people that were always active when they needed to be and really appreciate everybody I met. For everybody reading this know that I’ll never forget what a fun time I had with each and every one of you even through the good and the bad times I still had fun. Last thing I want to say is I want everybody will read this is thank you for helping this server grow as high as it has been and am asking everybody to keep it growing and continue bringing more people here.

Farewell,
Ian_19(aka Emboarwreck, Iman49840, and BaconSpaghettiOs)
