Well if you are wrong about it only taking out natural trees arbor will go down, so this is a risk for me. Is there a way we could like lock the bottom of the tree? that way peeps cant grief. I say no as this is just a way to be lazy on a video game! Come on now.
Honestly, that is what this comes down to. Players are too lazy to either cut down an entire tree, or actually remove EVERY log. In my opinion, the trees are fine as-is, and if you don’t like seeing the random floating trees, please, just take the time to cut them down.
It’s in the plugin’s details…so that’s what the plugin does. Make sure you read my earlier comment about moving the tree down.
It doesn’t make anyone lazy, since it still takes the same amount of time to chop down a tree. This plugin isn’t here to make things simpler, it just removes the ugly floating tree problem. You’d still remove every log.
I think this plugin is rather good, its good for clearing land too if you think about it. I voted up, but ultimately up the everyone to decide. 
Since this is a build server and since the votesare currently tied, I’m gonna go ahead and vote yes. Jungle trees, Dark oaks and fancy oaks are kinda annoying.
so you’re gonna go around and cut down every dark oak, jungle and “fancy oak” tree then 
;D
Where are you getting that it takes longer to chop the trees?

From what I can tell, it only takes the regular time(for one block), to chop a whole tree.
Seeing that video, I feel the plugin is far too dangerous to player builds…
GUYS
Remember, it doesn’t have to be the 1 block break, we can set it to move the tree down rather than you climbing up it (out actually adds more realism if you ask me).
We should vote on the plugin itself, rather than a section of it we may not even use. The problem will solve ugly floating tree problem without making it easier to cut trees down. Only natural trees are affected, and if you really don’t trust the authors of the plugin we can test it before we bring it to PCB.
Personally, my vote stays a no. It’s an aesthetic plugin, not a necessary one. The main argument has been to “solve the ugly floating trees”, but that’s something you can easily repair, yourself.
I’m all for adding more plugins to our server, but if it’s something as insignificant as cutting trees down quicker, or making trees look nicer, it’s kinda silly to worry so much about it.
even with only the ‘bringing down logs’ feature, what happens when the involved tree is still too tall, as the logs stop at the ‘leaf line’. It also still wouldn’t solve the problem of large oak trees either, which make up the majority of floating trees, therefore the other feature would have to be used, but this raises all the previous concerns. I don’t think there’s a win-win situation here.
I don’t understand what you mean dord. From what I understood, the plugin can move down all tree types.
the big poak trees ave logs inside them which cannot be brought doiw, these are what amke the tree float, so thereofe it wouldn’t wouk. I am also skeptical as to how it would wokr on large jungle trees, as the leaf line on them is very tall, so it may be left with floating leaves etc.
The plugin allows the leaves to move down with the tree. Again, we can test the plugin to see how it works to answer questions.
that’s not what was in the video
I also have a concern that, if half of the community votes no, and we DO implement it, then half of the community will be ignored in that aspect. Unless the voting seems weighed towards one side, and by a much greater margin than we have now, I say it should be denied.
Dord… read the plugin’s details.
Due to the potential flaws with this plugin, I would suggest it only be used in Creative perhaps? It’s the most annoying thing when I have to clear out a Roofed Forest, and I suppose this would be of some help (less pillaring/flying, and if there’s a way to change the duration it takes to destroy it, perhaps lower that too).
This was denied. Locking. Seems it was already moved to the denied section.
