A new 1.3 map

The new 1.3 update is coming up in the foreseeable future and there has been a lot of talk about the possibility of a new map
This poll is to see where everybody stand and to possibly bring some new suggestions to the table.
Please vote and then post your opinion below

Personally, I like the idea of the 1.3 map being a separate map for those who a new to the server and who would want a fresh map to play on.
Then again, I also like the idea of all players being on one new fresh map, but with most towns and significant area that have a /warp being worldedit'd into the new map so old players don't feel like they are losing everything. I think the latter of these choices is the more reasonable as it would encourage communities between the older and newer players, and would be fun for everyone to explore.

With the new map, will it be possible to keep the old one? us players spend alot of time in the old one and would be pretty dissapointed if everything was undone :p maybe combining the maps would be nice?

That is what options two and three cover. Ielov has already said he would be willing to worldedit over parts of the old map into the new and the multiverse plugin would effectively make a second map seperate from what we have now available through a /warp and/or a portal of sorts.

Ahh then it is possible to bring over 'parts' of the ld map over? then im definately voting for it as i feel no attachment to the current map besides the warp points. xD

I would like to know what, if anything, you would like to be able to bring over to a new map. Money? Keep your mcmmo stats? A chest full of items? A combination of any of these things?

In the event of a fresh map without having anything old ported over, I would like to suggest allowing players to keep some items and money for the first 5 or so days, so that players could buy and build lots at spawn and a few towns at the beginning of the map to get it going.

Well... if the old is not ported over wouldnt it be better for all our property to be converted back to money? maybe even out items too. then maybe a temporal shop selling all basic items can be opened? and definately our stats should be kept xD

Multiverse. Add new 1.3 map which shares inventory with the current map so u can go in there to get some resources from a fresh world

We wouldnt make any ranks at all so would make it so everyone has same rank in the new world.

multiuniverse is not practical in this situation... this just means we go pillage the new world then we come back... might as well turn on genore again?

Why/How is mutliverse NOT practical? I currently have no issues finding ores underground, the whole point of the new map is so when players walk outside of spawn, they have a good map to explore, with trees, unused terrain, etc.

This is a great idea and entirely possible, although I need to ask another server owner how they did it in case you can't figure it out.

errno said that players can go get resources from a new world. souldnt we just move to the new world from the start? i mean our old world has already enough resourses... if u want a new world, might as well move there :p

the old players have lots of buildings etc in mainworld thats why we dont want a new world
