This Should Be Punishable

You know when you look through the player shops and you see a really well priced item, like "Holy shit! Perfect diamond for 5k? Fuck Off, No way" Then you goto the place and realise the shopchest is un-accessible due to other its hidden behind or under a block, or just blatantly fucking covered the shopchest with a block.

I know it can be argued simply by "What if they just dont want that item to be sold so they cover it!", and I say well lemme show y'all a nifty little trick, *clears throat* now when you dont want something to be sold, set the fucking buy and sell value to "0" that way the item will not be listed on the shop lists, which inturn does not bait players into going to shops.

Essentially the problem is that when this sort of shit happens, it baits players into shops that does not sell the goods they advertise. Which is so fucking annoying, Do you know how many goodies and shit I can trick players into coming to a shitshack? Literally I could just put up "Enderman Spawner - 30k" "Perfect Diamond - 1k" etc, but I dont because I know how annoying it is.

Alsoooo I do know that in some cases, nide will break the block to let the player who brought it to his attention buy it for the set price, which is a bit of a punishment I suppose but seeing as nide is busy with his personal life, I doubt he'll rush online every time someone msg's him on IRC regarding this shit.

This is a few I could find just by thinking of making this post, reply to this post with some you found aswell! :D

Agreed. I feel like it should be a task for Helpers or Moderators to eliminate these types of stores or to "open up" the chestshop to allow purchase. Or maybe even a minor-bannable offense or maybe a new warn system that alerts the user the next time they login if they're offline to remove or free up the chest.

It's annoying seeing 15 entries of the same item (or just the one item) for a cheap price that cannot be purchased purely for bait purposes.

Agreed.

This has been a problem for way too long. Even nidefawl has destroyed some of these blocks and let players buy... Think we should do the same..
