  1. I don't really know why I want this... but it would be cool to have pets that you could have around your res. Say, for 100,000r, you could type /promo upgrade. That would take you to a promo screen which has an option of every mob/mini mobs. You could name them, they aren't hostile, have unlimited health, and can't leave town.

    You can type /pet follow and your pet will follow you. Type /pet dismiss and the pet will roam around like every other normal mob. To name pets you would type /pet name &1Zomdude. These commands will only affect the closest pet.



    Just a quick idea, please tell me what you think! Thanks,

  2. I think I like this idea... this could use some tweaking though.
  3. Yeah... even I voted with tweaks.

  4. Alright, I made some adjustments in my opinion.
    1. Limited time offer, or a supporter feature.
    2. Only does baby mobs because the larger mobs are just to big. ( Cave Spider counts as baby mob )
    3. No Endermen, Withers, EnderDragons, Ghasts, or blazes.
    4. Name the pets with a name tag :D
    5. Left click them with Eye of Ender to toggle between Follow, Wander, and Stay.
    What do you think of this DJ Penguin?

  5. Well, I know there is a plugin called Echo Pet that allows users to have a pet that basically just follows them around constantly and does nothing else. However it's done, it seems like it would be a fairly harmless and aesthetic feature that can't really be abused. I see no reason why it couldn't be available to everyone.

    Personally I like the idea, I'd take it over nicknames.

  8. If I had a pet, they would be an enderman. I would name them Ramsley and they would be my butler. :0
  9. the noise they make would have to be disabled, you could seriously freak people out with these.

  10. It would involve some coding and there would be some conflict with entcoutns and whatnot. I think horses covered the urge for pets for must people so I vote -1.
  11. I really want a pet endermen now. :0 And horses don't follow you around. Dogs do though. >_> But dogs are old news imo.

  12. In advance I apologize for a bump on a thread so long forgotten, but this is for the actual thread.
    This would work in EMC, and I think it'd be cool to have also. I was joking around literally 5 minutes on smp 1 saying have a pet chicken in chat, when really I only had a baby chicken on a lead.
    So, seeing as people love animals, myself included, this is something not to hard to do as like a small update. In all this is something that should be considered being added in the servers. Not because other big and 'successful' servers have them, (they get money for it -.-) but because it is something people enjoy.
    EDIT: and here is a picture of my pet ;3

  13. Man, all I really want is a mob that will follow me eeeverywhere, mainly an enderman. Completely harmless, they can't defend you or do anything but follow you around. How awesome would that be?!
