Hey guys. I wanted to contribute an idea that would make the server money.
This plugin is called Voxel Vert. It is a very easy to use plugin. Basically, you build something in game, and it will convert it into a 3D model.

This opens up a huge variety of ideas and things that could be added to the pack. Yes, I realize to implement an idea like this, it would require updating from oddly some of yall's favorite versions...1.8 (lol). That would be to get more models.
I've seen huge servers use model cosmetics as a way to make money. Some servers make pets for players (I realize that might not work, maybe a dog or tiger though for the PVE servers only?)
Also hat textures. Think Rick/Carl's sheriff hat, glen's baseball hat, etc. These would be purely cosmetic and would probably used in the PvE servers mainly (which, lately have way more players than the PVP servers).
It could also be used for seasonal models, like Christmas hats, Halloween items, etc. Like imagine a bone katana skin or something. It could be kinda cool. People could also buy cosmetic backpacks in different colors to make it look like they are wearing a backpack. A friend of mine made a model of one using this plugin the other day and it was awesome.
I'm suggesting this because I have seen A LOT of servers use models and cosmetics as a way to increase their income each month. It works. I've seen it work. If you don't believe me, PM me and I can send you a good 5 server IPs with player bases around the same size or bigger than Havoc that do this.
I realize this idea will not appeal to most of the big PvPers and OG ppl. I'm not a rp person, before yall attack me. But I do like collecting little cosmetics on servers and I think it is a way to make money that doesn't sacrifice gameplay by allowing hackers to buy their way back in to hack again.
Its just an idea. Can't say people aren't trying to help the community and come up with them, other than yourselves.
