    Is it possible to sell perks for credits on servers?

    Lets say a player want Heal, Change spawner, fly, or more homes (any of these perks really: Shop - MineYourMind 5.0 but have it only for that server. Could this possibly be a feature?

    Have the price range between 80-250 credits... depending on what the perk is. I think if possible, it could bring in more support for the server. Some people cant pay for the top ranks, but could pay $5(euro) to unlock a perk on one server at a time.

    Seems that this would increase the amount of players that have /fly and /god. We all know those perks aren't really modpack friendly and best kept to a minimum. I also think Slind said somewhere they like to keep the perk system simple. Don't quote me on that though! Better to wait for their response.

    Im not a fan of /god... but /fly on some servers is fine, Since most packs have Angel wings.
    Of course not every pack should have every perk.

    Don't know how simple this would be to implement. From what I understand the permissions are done in groups, where t1 has these perks, t2 has these, etc. If you go to custom perks that means there has to be a group for every combination that exists (which is an insane amount).

    Yup. There could be another way. But it would probably involve re writing the whole system.

    You could just give the permission to the player instead of a group.

    I think the following would be nice.
    Below is based on the: 80 credits- 2.50

    *change spawner- 250-275
    *Extra Home 80-100 each
    */nick 80-100
    */feed 140-160 (if possible i think this should have like 1hr cooldown)
    */ender chest 80-100

    Im sure fly would sell but im not sure if it should be sold seperatly since its a key perk to Teir 4.
    To be honest i think any of them "could"sell, Keep xp, Heal...ect

    I would not allow /fly to be purchased for credits. There are already plenty of in-game items which can be used to fly.

    I think a wise approach might be to allow a player to purchase ranks with credits; so they can make small purchases, and have to option to save or spend their credits. Allowing players to purchase permissions individually is just asking for trouble IMO. The only perks I'd like to see available for credits are:

    Extra Homes
    Nicknames (Per-Change Basis?)

    I agree with these. /god and /fly /heal and other things like that are Key Perks for the Higher tier. You should just sell the ones which Krhymez said.
