Alright, so I was experimenting with my faction and whatnot and ran into a small problem. The only available ranks for factions are noob (Not sure what it is called), member, and officer. I think if possible we should look for a better faction type plug in that gives us a lot more creativity for our factions, like setting co-owner, faction ranks, faction wars, and what not.

I have noticed recently a couple of minor problems that could lead to much bigger problems.
1. There is a lot of money floating around the server more than a healthy amount
2. Some people like myself and a few others have more than one plot I personally even have four currently. This stops newer players from buying them when they are ready.

I also have some solutions to these problems.
1. I know someone suggested taxes before but, let me expand a little bit on it. The server could impose property tax. Property tax comes by once over 24 hours ( or whenever silas wants to it ) for each of your plots. Depending on where your plot is the tax is higher or lower. Example: A plot in the wings  is 1000 per day while a Main courtyard plot is 5000 per day. ( or whatever silas wants it to be ) If you miss your taxes once you get a warning/strike and a second time you lose the plot. The taxes would be auto taken from your balance so, you do not have to be online for it to happen. I know there is a plugin somewhere for this or you could make one. Also if you don't like the one strike idea you can not use it.

2. This gears more to the excess of money in the server. The server could set up a sort of lottery. There are many different lottery plugins you could look into and build one yourself. Here are some things I have seen lottery plugins do:
- People buy tickets for x dollars, winner gets 85% of total pot
- Server creates item, example: 16 dia blocks, people buy tickets, winner randomly chosen
- There is also a plugin that makes slot machines which is really fun.

How Long Have You Played On MCP? About 5 months, it was before the reset.

Have You Ever Been: Banned, Muted, Kicked? I was falsely banned one time and I have been kicked for being AFK.

If You Have Been, Why, And For How Long? Because a warden thought I was using X-Ray.

Why Should We Pick You To Be Our Next Moderator? A mod was recently banned and I was told that mod positions are opening up, I believe that being a moderator is an important part of MCP because a lot of people do in fact log on and spam the chat, use excessive caps, and often swear and I believe that there must be more mods in order to enforce the server's chat rules. I often end up being the only player online late at night and usually mods are barely ever online but when they do get online they don't stay very long, when mods get off or guards that can moderate chat, a lot of people start abusing the chat. I also think that I can fill this position because I am quick at typing and I am always reading the chat. MCP is really in need of mods right now and I can prove myself to be everything I say I am.

What is your IGN? willtd05

When can you play on MCP? I can play all the time on the week ends, however I can only play from 4:30-12:00 on school nights

What is your timezone? EST

What is your rank on the server? Baron

Do you have any experience with other prison servers? yes, Killion, Detained and sneakybastards

Do you have any experience with guarding? Give a list of servers and your guard rank. yes I was a C-Guard on this server

Have you read both the guard rules and the prisoner rules, even the ones in the info room? Yes [Sedimentary torch]

Why should we pick you to be out next guard?  I believe That I should be chosen as the next C-Guard because I am very good with the commands and I am familiar with the guarding rules. I am good at being a guard, yes I had hax and I was demoted like I should have been. whats done is done and I don't use hacks anymore so ill be abiding by all of the rules in order to make it up to the warden spot one day. again like the last time ill be giving it my all in order to rank up and become the head guard and then if i'm lucky i may be a warden. I should be the next guard because i am no newbie to the job, i have done it before and i know what to do and i am less likely to make the rookie mistakes. when i was demoted i talked to silas and he said to give it a week and it has been a little longer than a week so i'm giving it another shot.
