I was thinking about the sponsoring system today and for the most part it's a great system, but i think there's a pretty cool feature that could be added on. Why not make something in game that allowed players to do a command like /request[item] and have the request sent to players that aren't in-game and that have sufficient points you could also turn off requests being sent to you with /request off. There could also be a command like /requestlist That allowed players that aren't in-game to look at a list of current sponsor request. Just for an example scenario lets say PlayerA was in-game and fell in a hole and needed an ender pearl. PlayerA would type /request ender pearl The request would be sent to all players that had requests on and that were spectating. So PlayerB is in the hub and gets a request message saying "PlayerA in Us22 is requesting an ender pearl". PlayerB could then go to Us22 and sponsor the ender pearl.

It's a kinda good idea. It could cause spam with people who need an item, or don't know how to toggle it off. Also, maybe keep it only to the one server, and not with the hub? That could be extreme lag.

Hmmm... maybe not the entire hub. That'd be pretty spammy.
Perhaps just the people in the game? Then again, they could always just write "enderpearl pls i nub who got stuck in hole."
Maybe when someone logs into a game thats already in-game, there could be a list of "Requests" that they see. And also they can do "/request list" or "/req list" or something to see the list again, or also to update the list they see.

I think this is a great idea and as other people said keep it only for the server not the whole hub and maybe make it so that only people with a certain amount of points can request for items too so that noobs that just joined MCSG with 60 points or so will be spamming for diamond swords and stuff. Where an experienced player with idk around 1.5k points maybe more would be more reasonable and not spam for diamond swords or gold apples etc.
