Some ideas suggested from the previous threads:

Purchase XP levels with in-game money
Purchase custom tags with Vote Tokens.


Dungeons
[spoiler]
volcano based dungeon, with blazes and wither skellies

Most of the good loot from bosses are weapon based , can we add iron ignots,or emeralds to the mix? Since not many people buy weapons

Make a Abandoned Village map for dungeons,make the 2 basic mobs Spiders and Cave Spiders,and the Boss should be a Zombie King,the Zombie King should be located in a Castle at the Side of the Village.And the other boss should be a Spider King located in a Giant Web in the Center of the Village.

Haunted House map!With Cave spiders and Zombies!One of the bosses should be at the top of the house.The other boss would be on floor -2!

Maybe add more weapon types! Like maybe enchanted iron ingots for brass knuckles, or shovels for maces! And of course, hoes for scythes!

I would love to see a huge, multi-level (like 5 or more) dungeon with piston-hidden treasure rooms. Throw in some major bosses and mobs (most doing ranged attacks) and make it so one can NOT solo it, even in full diamond armor. You could disable the mobs and treasure chests for a good event location too.

snow themed map. Maybe a deserted snow-covered village of some sort or power station?

Loot chests with 24hr reset time.

Small reward chests with 24hr reset time with simple items. Plants, saplings, blocks, random ingots.

Suggested plugins - LokiDungeon, EpicBoss, and Instances

like the movie FROZEN or something like that. One of the bosses could be that giant snow golem Elsa made and the monster, an evil olaf.

This idea by snake901.

This idea by RetroGamerChick.

Ray's idea for the Dungeon Guide (/ft)

Misa/Alice expanding on that.

Staff dungeon.

Mob names:
General of Hell's Armies
Lord Crispiness
Duke of Deep-Fried
Sultan of Sizzling
Emir of Ooey-Gooey

A dark forest map with Dire Wolves as the enemies, Obviously there'd be the Alpha Wolf as a boss, but a witches coven hidden on the map with the coven leader as a second boss.

Race Parkour maps. Like, you get X people into the course, and the goal is the first to make it to the end gets the big prize while the runners up get the booby prize.

Cooperative Courses, where to make it through you need at least two people to activate triggers and such.

Nightwolf:

I am writing this because a number of players seem to be mention/suggest adding spawners so I want to address this subject for all the players interested in why we haven't and probably never will add them to the server.

Please remember that this server was designed to be a challenge. Also, the natural mob spawn rate on the server is lower than your default settings. This helps to reduce lag, provide better survivability on your island, and creates more of a challenge when it comes to completing the challenges.

Mob Spawners take away from all of these things, causing the game balance to be skewed and making things easier. You are able to kill more mobs, gain more xp/levels making it easier to enchant items, and gain mob drops at a very increased rate. If not properly set up for auto-killing, can overpopulate an area creating a massive amount of lag that can affect the entire server. Also, since players gain currency for killing mobs, this would also provide a method players could abuse to gain a lot of currency in game.

If you want more mobs, you can build a traditional mob farm. I recommend the more traditional versions over the ones that use redstone and clocks to automate the process of clearing the platform(s) because with the reduced spawn rate they don't work as well as the traditional ones. Youtube has a lot of great Minecraft tutorials on how to build farms. If you are just wanting to get the loot, try adventuring through the dungeons.

Please understand that we have thought about the pros and cons, but mob spawners do not fit into our vision of what we want for the server or the challenge we want to provide our players. This includes selling them at spawn, giving them out as prizes, or making them available as loot from dungeons or parkour.

Brought to you by Death!

So this is the game:

To start, one person puts something into the vending machine and another person takes something else out.

Every person has to take something out and put something else in the machine. Whatever was put in/taken out can be related or not.

Example:

Death wrote:
I put in a toothbrush

FaliniFyreheart wrote:
I take out a empty bag of Lays.
I put in a jar of maple syrup.

XHorrible_GamerX wrote:
I take out a maple tree.
I put in a...basketball

and so on... Have Fun! 

I'll start:
I put in a rubber ducky.

Each person posts a number, going up by 1 for each post. The person to post as #1337 wins!
Example:
Player A - 1
Player B - 2
Player C - 3
Player D - 4
Etc.

I will start with...
1!

You take the last letter of the word posted before you for the first letter of your word. Keep it Minecraft themed! Blocks, items, biomes, mobs, etc!
Try not to use the same word someone else has used!

For example:
Player 1 - Podzol
Player 2 - Lilac
Player 3 - Crafting table
Player 4 - Egg

Etc.

I will start with:
Ender Dragon

In alphabetical order, post movies that you like! One movie per post. You can even post a picture of the movie poster if you'd like. Try not to stretch the page. Smaller pictures are good! But if you need to, instead of just img tags, try:
[img width=400]PICTURE LINK[/img]
I will start with:

Armageddon

Change one letter from the previous poster's word to make a new word!

Example:
Player A: Belt
Player B: Bent
Player C: Bend
Player D: Bond
Player E: Pond
Player F: Pony

I will start with:
Mint
