I feel like there should be an option to make a resource private. This basically entails letting users who already bought the resource still download it while non-paying or new users wouldn't be able to see or stumble across the resource.

Here's my thought process behind this suggestion:
Example: Let's say a user no longer wants to sell or let people download their resource (if it's free) but they don't want to lose the resources layout, reviews, update history, etc. because they might re-release it later. If there was an option to private the resource it would prevent new users from finding it but let users who purchased it previously still download the product and see news about the resource (or the reason for making it private).

The example above could also be applied if a user is updating/remaking a resource or doing a full overhaul and wants to private it until the next update comes out.

There's some other points I thought about but couldn't exactly get them across in text. Mind my dyslexic ass for a minute :rekt:

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

I don't see a problem with this, though in theory you could accomplish this as is by just not updating it, and letting it go down the ranking and just change the price to a ridiculous one (1-10k) which would keep everything in tact but prevent people from buying it. Nice suggestion regardless though.

Defeats the purpose of not letting people be able to find it.

Also, setting the price to an absurd one is a janky solution, regardless of whether it solves the above problem or not (not to mention it just looks horrible). And, for the sake of completeness of the resource system, it only makes sense to allow resources to be set of private with the above in mind.

Totally agree there. Even though I am new, it could become pretty handy in the future.
