GUIs are way simpler and look good (most of them).
However, using this technic for custom sounds is a bit too much.
Just put the link to the add-on in your welcome-message.

All the RPGs are like that. Even a TDM/DM is a kind of RPG. Most of the servers are RPGs.
However, I agree: RPGs that change some main aspects of the game are total stuff.

The trouble is every Add-On wanting a GUI keybinded to your keyboard. There's a limit to human memory of so many keybinds for so many GUIs you'll barely get use of. Also, most RPGs in Blockland work without clientside downloads. I've only found a few cases, and it is annoying to get locked out of servers by it. I have this one GUI, have no idea what it is, and it seems useless to me. I will delete it, as it is just a random keybind whereas I must manually click the X to close.

It'd be nice if multiple functions could be binded to one key and then only ran if on a server running the mod that requires the GUI. That way you could set all of your 'Main Menu' keys to something, all of your 'Inventory' keys, ect.

Sure, I'll just make it so you have to control a 30 slot inventory using slash commands. Sounds fun!
The community doesn't 'flow' at all, I don't even know what the forget you're saying. Downloading a GUI makes the game not a bitch to play, and more fun because you can actually see visually what you need to do. You'll find more people would rather download a GUI then play a game with slash commands.
