Community decision on Cuboid, once and for all.

This thread needs at least 50 votes to be a valid consensus, considering the size of our user base.

There has been a lot of back and forth on the use of Cuboid.

Overview: Cuboid is a tool that allows the user to edit the terrain and create walls of blocks simply by selecting the two endpoints.

In the near future there will be two servers; a creative server, and a survival server.

The survival server will not have cuboid. It will also not have item spawning or teleportation.

This thread is regarding the creative server. The biggest argument against cuboid has been that it takes away from the survival aspect. So, just to be clear, once there are two servers, this decision only affects the creative server.

Here is my suggestion: Due to it's destructive potential, Cuboid use should be allowed for a small group of very trusted people (a subset of mods). These mods can use cuboid to assist other players in leveling land, creating starting foundation, replacing blocks, and creating walls. Now obviously, if a structure is created entirely of cuboid, it is pointless. A structure that took no creativity or imagination to build is pointless, and does undermine the point of "Creative" mode. But, this is the case for any silly structure built, even without Cuboid. But in the case of very very large structures, cuboid can simply be a time saver. It allows you to complete tedious tasks quickly, while still allowing you to be creative. Remember, this is not the survival server. As long as we have item spawning, stick-delete and teleportation, we're already "cheating".

(For all those familiar with Cuboid functions, the Sphere, Ball, Faces, and Walls commands will not be allowed. Simply too easy to screw up. See my Cuboid Tutorial here.)

1a. Cuboid should be allowed for a small group, because I understand it can't be given to everyone, and I would like their help for my projects.

1b. Cuboid should be allowed for a small group, because I don't care. It doesn't affect me.

1c. Cuboid should be allowed for a small group, because this is the creative server and there's no such thing at cheating.

1d. Cuboid should be allowed for a small group, because since they would be on call, it would expand everyone's limitations of creative mode.

1?. Cuboid should be allowed for a small group, because ____________.

2a. Cuboid should not be allowed because it is not fair if everyone cannot have it.

2b. Cuboid should not be allowed because the ability to create elements of a structure without rapid clicking undermines the point of creative mode.
