Very good idea. I am unsure about the community being a faction, the main idea that i put forward was to build a number of towns and farms which are free to anyone no matter their status. But then again i quite like the idea of it being a faction as well. I hate the idea of turning people away because they are no part of the clan, however loyal members will know the ridiculously complecated rules i set for each farm.
I may change the name of the "community" if we can all agree on a better name for it. If anyone can think of something catchy then feel free to nominate the name.
Several people have suggested hero status getting a statue and i think its a good idea, i am no artist so i will not be able to do anymore apart form gather the wool.

i can make the statues, it just requires doing pixelart from the net on a dummy. As for wool no need to gather, im making a wool farm that should give all colors of wool in copious amounts if used properly by the public (as in breed that shit!), im going to get started on that as soon as im done my home. as for the faction thing, it doesn't mean it has to be exclusive to make it a faction, just have lands that are reserved for the community's buildings and farms, have ways to build a reputation with that faction, but dont make it a you are or arent allowed, the basic foundation of what it is requires that it be available to all, regardless of status, however working to better the community would qualify you a member.
As for the name, what about "The Collective" or "The Commonwealth" or "The Brotherhood" or "The Society" or "The Companions" or "The Tribe", etc, etc, etc.

Ok, i am confused about what differences there will be once it becomes a faction? If any.

community rank reset, basic rank is still loyal. But hero's are more like moderators of community builds whilst the admins of the builds are guardians.
Loyals= 0 votes
hero's= 5 votes
guardians= 10 votes
unlimited number of loyals and hero's, however i might put a cap on guardians depend on popularity.

I dislike pixel art and statues. If these statues are a reward, I would intentionally try to avoid it.

I have to admit i am not to keen on pixel arts, the surrounding area tends to look a bit tacky, perhaps a trophy room instead? I don't want to tower over somones town or village with a massive pixel art, perhaps when we found a town we could do a pixel art of that person built into the floor of the building as a tribute or something?

Trophy room with blocks of iron, gold, and diamond blocks on a podium with a player name to signify the rank.

exactly the idea i was going for :-) i will probablly build the trophy room in spawn

Ok i was thinking of a diamond podium for the guardians, and for the loyals a gold podium.
The only problem is a cannot afford to make a gold podium. I am guessing that there will be very few players who will be popular enough to gain 10 votes for a guardian placment, so I think i might be okay with my diamond count. I do not have too much gold, however.
If people could donate gold and diamonds, not many just one or two and only if you take an interest in the community and its ranks.
I don't think i will accept donations yet since log block does not work i am afraid somone might steal the diamonds.

A quick update on the buildings, for now i am suspending the build of a semi automatic wheat farm until the biome train can get on its tracks.
I am close to finishing the porugese caravel which is docked at the community centre and i plan on starting the hot air ballon.
I could do with help on clearing out the following rooms:
Trophy room
ranking room/membership room
nomination room
Rules room
nether portal room.
All these rooms will be situated under the community centre building.
Any design ideas post here or in game please.

I'll be there to help. And very nice job on the community centre... Huge thanks from me!

Thanks for helping with the community centre sheep farm kaya :-)

I have found a skele spawner whilst mining, it now belongs to the community :-), i will tell people the whereabouts once i have finished constructing it.

update on ranks;
we can only have 6 hero's this will stop people voting for each other and makes the rank much more special.
guardians, there will only ever be three at one time.
Their will be a chance to vote soon
