Kits!

Hello everybody! And I'm here for a thing to discuss: Kits.
That would be nice that Glenn put KITS in the server.
Why? Because it would be nice for 'newbies', not a swear, because I'm a 'nob' in the server too.
What would be in the KITS? Kits for newbies: some stone tools and a bit of food, that would be good. Kits for VIPS: some good things that would be better than stone tools and food, maybe more food, maybe diamond tools, whatever you want.
More observations? Yes, put a cool down to the people don't spam the command /kit NB(or tools), same as LOT of free items, than a LOT of CMDR spam.
Well, that's it! That would be better in the server, because if you just start playing in the server, a lot of people would say "There arent any kits?" and it would be hardly to take tools from the start.
Or, if you want some HARDCORE survival, that's no need to do it. PS: just one idea!

The idea of receiving a kit isn't all that bad, but getting stone tools isn't really hard (kick a tree, make a work bench, make a wooden pickaxe, then a stone one. that's 3 wood, and 2 minutes' worth of work). Food, on the other hand, is a little harder to obtain when you just started survivalling, as well as getting a bed, since getting enough wool can be a little bit tricky.
One thing that might come in handy when you just join in a server, besides the bed and some food, are seeds (pumpkin, melon, regular seeds) for making a nice farm to survive the first few days.
I like the idea of VIPs receiving good (better) items, though a VIP usually has quite a bunch of stuff already. Since there is a shop which sells pretty much all of the minecraft stuff, I'd suggest that the kit has some tricoins in it (might as well include 1 or 2 diamond blocks), and, if our server owner agrees with the idea, includes some modded iron tools (or gold, when it has a high enough 'unbreaking' enchantment). This way it keeps things fair for the other non-VIP players.
I'd like to hear your opinion about this.
Kind regards, Modi

well.....when you first start on the server you set a set off stone tools anyway. i think the idea off kits might be a bit pointless, but what i can think off is that you could be able to buy a kit with tricoins so at the start with a budget off 500 coins it could contain some wood, seeds, iron tools like a pick and sword, clippers and maybe 16 bread just to help start off better, but doing that means to wait longer for a world guard or you could play maybe 30 mins and already have all this stuff.....
kits could be good but its just that i think the kit should be purchasable not just spawned in.
this plugin would basically be a lazy-mans tool who does not want to play long.
and i've never seen anyone say "wheres kits?" when a new person joined...

Kits . . . Isn't really needed/pointless, IMO. The server already gives a new player starting items when he/she joins.
As stated above, by the time a player gets the VIP rank he/she would have already managed to obtain some pretty good items. So giving the said rank a Kit wouldn't have much of a point. Well except for giving them some free items on a periodical basis as a 'reward' for achieving said rank . . .
If this were to be implemented . . . The cooldown should be around 3 days the Newbie Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 apple, 1 firework (small boring one) the Trusted Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 baked potato, 1 firework (medium entertaining one) the VIP Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 cookie, 1 firework (big dazling one), 1 snowball ( to throw at somesteve at random )
OR
the Newbie Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 apple, 1 firework (small boring one), 1 silver ingot the Trusted Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 baked potato, 1 firework (medium entertaining one), 1 gold ingot the VIP Kit would/should (IMO) contain 1 cookie, 1 firework (big dazling one), 1 snowball ( to throw at somesteve at random ), 1 diamond
the purpose of this would simply to give the player something to look forward to every few days. Give them a bit more reason to keep playing or log in every 3 days so they can get their kit.
The buyable kits on the other hand seem like a nice idea, providing convenience to the player. he/she can just type in /kit stonetools to get all the stone tools for a price rather than go all the way to the shop to buy the tools/materials one by one. Or he/she can stop being a lazy a$$ and just go buy the materials/tools. . .
TL;DR Kits are a tad bit pointless . . . implementing/configuring them would be nice and all . . . but unecessary

I agree, there totally should be kits.Every server I've been in had kits or items on the start. Of course the tools are easy to make without getting them from a kit, but of course many people have asked ''Is there any kits?'' when they joined the first time

Maybe have some kits that are available daily,weekly and monthly.
And about the stone tools kit thing. Its that easy to make stone tools, so why not just give them for free instead of wasting time?
