Description: Perma loaders, like the one seen here, can be used to keep chunks loaded indefinitely regardless of player presence. They basically can give unlimited AFK presence at certain types of farms. Additionally, they could keep a massive total amount of chunks loaded which would obviously not be very lag-friendly.

How does this idea keep in line with Wildercraft themes? Keeping compatible AFK farms loaded 24/7 would be very OP, and lag isn't player-friendly.

How difficult is your idea to implement? 1 as far as just adding the rule, Not sure how difficult it would be to detect infringements though.

Perma loaders are already banned because of the reasons you mentioned in your post. I haven't looked at the /farms command but it should be under one of them. Generally, anything like perma loaders that causes a lot of lag is banned on WilderCraft anyways. If you ever see one on any of the servers, it would be a good idea to notify a Mod.

I'm aware that they aren't allowed, but there's no mention of them in the rules.

Most people aren't techincally savvy enough to build a perma-loader, and those that do would usually know that it violates the rules. It's not explicitly mentioned, but it falls under the general rule of "don't lag the server". We don't allow people to bypass the afk timeout, and a perma-loader is like a super-version of that. 

Basically, we're trying to not explictly list every single thing that could lag the server unless we think people would be using it. If you (and others who vote for it) think it's valuable enough to add, we'll find a spot for it in /farms.

Perhaps a command that opens a book with examples of things that lag the server could be made, similar to how /teleport opens a book with an explanation of Eyes of TP.

thats something we're considering for more than one topic, but right now we're focusing on reworking then first for the basics. 

but it seems like there's enough support for this, so I've added a reference to it in the reworked /farms. You'll see it when it goes live :)

The mention of permaloaders have been added to the newest revision of /farms, thank you for suggesting it!
