    Minecraft Name:
    Jacob43365
    Suggestion:
    Allow warps in towns to be named anything, not just the town name
    Reason:
    For my town, /warp oasis would be a lot easier to type then /warp oasis_capital. It would make warps easier to use
    Any Other Information:
    N/A
    Link To This Plugin/Is this a custom addition?:
    A rule change

    This would make it a ton harder to index warps - I like that a warp name is tied to where it goes.

    But what if you have a town named 'Jacobville' with /warp ville and then I create a town called 'ville'? Shouldn't I have the right to the warp name?

    Also would need to check there's no town called oasis. I would think if there was it should have priority.

    If there isn't a town called oasis what do we do when there is if another town has its warp?

    I agree with the things @Dccciz and @Nicit6 said. It's also much easier to teach newer players to type /warp <townname> rather than /warp <Good luck guessing what the warp is>.

    This would make things needlessly confusing.

    What if I now purchase a town named 'oasis'? What should I have to name my warp as? I'd say I have more right to the name of my own town than you do. What then?

    You all bring up great points! :) I can understand that indexing these warps would be confusing if it wasn't consistent with the Town's name.

    Ok, I now see many flaws in this. While it would be nice it would be complicated to do.

    Mod can lock
