I want to combine something with my skyblock server, i have troule getting people to stay on my server, they mostly join built a cobble gen and leave, and then i'm like why? did he not join for skyblock? a friend of mine told it might be because it isn't special enough,(i have mobarena,mines,minions,envoys.) But the people that are more in depth to it are really enjoying it, so i'm looking for a idea, that i can combine with skyblock so people will be more interested in staying, such as in order to get further with x your island level must be at least x. but i'm all out of ideas and i will offer $10 for a usefull unique idea. please contact me on discord erwin886#2921

Useful ideas for player retention and acquisition:
- voting rewards for /vote
- daily login reward
- Custom IP for your server such as skyzwaal.com for just $10/year at NameCheap, no dedicated IP needed if you set it up right
- discord server
- weekly & monthly events (e.g. building contest, winner gets a prize!)
- twitch streams, host one yourself and put your IP in the description
- create YouTube videos
- use player donations (or your own funds) to implement premium plugins from Spigot or elsewhere
- player feedback, ask players what they'd like to see directly
- daily bump on PlanetMinecraft.com - it's absolutely free to do every 24 hours and usually gets 1 to 3 players

If you do all these things consistently and put a lot of effort into it, your odds of success will be much higher!
Hope this helps. I've built a small player-base from scratch that is quite active on Berrycraft.org , it's not a huge server but by doing the things above I've gotten about $20 in donations and have a few regulars who are quite fond of the server now. It takes a lot of effort to even build a small community but you just gotta keep working at it.

Best of luck![DOUBLEPOST=1583880759][/DOUBLEPOST]I see you are also using PaperSpigot 1.8.8, I would highly recommend installing a free plugin called "ViaVersion" that will allow any version of the Minecraft client to connect including 1.15 which might be why some players are not joining.

For players on newer versions this is what they will see and it will not let them join without ViaVersion
