Minecraft Name: Identifies Suggestion: Having Jobs on ECC. Reason: I think there should be jobs on ECC, because when new players join, they have no farm to farm at, unless they're friends with someone or they're paying it off at a townfarm, but other than that they really have no way of making any money. With this, it would make a cool edition to ECC and you can get a little extra cash in your pocket. Also with this, the new players can get a little bit of starting money so they can get into a town and farm. Any Other Information: Nope.

-1 People already employ workers when needed for clearing ect. We shouldn't have the server employing workers as we should stay more towards a free market economy/capitalistic server. We already have plenty of ways to make money, and I don't think this is needed.
I completely agree. My apologies to you, @Identifies, but I just can't support this. The demand is simply not there- making a plugin for jobs will only make it worse. And plus, what would people work for the server for? Creating great buildings and monuments? People won't be inspired if they're forced to do them as a job. Also, feel free to read my whole "/rant" on a previous thread, which explains why I am against jobs on ECC. It is somewhat, but not completely similar to this, and so you may need to adapt it to the jobs found in "MC Jobs". Here is the link: http://ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/130942/#post-709022 Tl;dr of that: ECC is for fun and making in-game money, not working for it through jobs. Jobs take the fun out of real life, unless you love them. I don't think many people will love these new ideas for jobs. They'd rather build their own empires of money, towns, and buildings. And also, they would love to rank up, too. ECC is for escaping reality, not living it.
I don't think you guys have the right idea about the jobs addon. It doesn't make you work for the server. It simply adds bonus money to what you are already doing to make money. The way it usually works is adding say 2.50$ for every fish you catch or 5$ for every diamond you mine. You choose a specialty ranging from fisherman to farmer to miner and receive extra money for those tasks. It was a suggestion to help builders make money to live off what they are already doing.
I understand this. But it is so very limiting. There is SG, mining, farming, fishing, building (and other jobs). Why make it so you can only do one? It will get boring really fast. Also, @AdmiralD has been making an awesome way to get cash as a builder for almost free. From him, you get 5k if you do all the basic things you need to know about the server ( read the server rules, read the Builder's Guide) It is not open for anyone but builders.
