* Cmod rank - yes.
New players, and even some moderately experienced players may not know what the lighter colored Vtn&VDonor names mean. A simple change to [[Cmod@Username]] would clear things up a bit.
* VDonor color - Yes or no...
VDonor is an important rank. These are some of our best players on the server, and they definitely ought to be rewarded. However, there are limited colors; and some aren't great for names in the chat. I think the change from Vtn@Username to VDonor@Username is sufficient reward for veterans who donate, and does not require a color swap.
This on, I feel is a pretty low priority, but that's just my opinion.
* More voter commands - possible
Meh. It's another one that I feel is a low priority. It's be fun to have more commands, but it really isn't very necessary. Most of the time, I personally don't even use my 2 daily commands. But if there are commands that'd be easy to code in, and don't give too much advantage to people, by all means, go ahead.
* More voter brackets - I like this one.
7 days if voting gets you to fancy green brackets. That's fun. But after that, it's just like, "okay, I just need to vote to keep these, or I'm going to have to wait a week to get them back," instead of "I've got 3 months of voting tallied up now. If I miss a day, it's going to take another 3 months to get to this point!"
I think having new bracket colors for voting for longer periods of time would be great. For example, voting for 1 month straight, or voting for 3 months, etc. This would really encourage people to keep voting, because it takes so long to get those kinds of brackets. It also shows the level of dedication a player has; "That guy has 3-month brackets! He obviously cares about the server."
* Profanity highlighter - Better solution
Alright, this one is alright, but I think a better solution would to be to add an automatic word filter in global chat. This would make it apparent to some new players that profanity isn't allowed, so they don't have to learn the hard way. A wordfilter would also fix the issue of donors+ who accidentally swear in global, thinking they're still in donor chat, where it's allowed. Of course, this wouldn't make Chat mods obsolete, because there will always be the players who purposely spell profanity incorrectly to bypass the filter.
* Trade-able enchanted picks - sounds difficult
The issue I see with this one, is the massive number of combinations, levels, enchantments, and materials of tools. It sounds very hard to be able to add all that information to a trade sign.
As well as that, if it were only "enchanted diamond pick," It would allow for people to falsely advertise trade signs. The player uses a sign to say the chest is trading silk touch picks, and it actually has efficiencyI picks.
