Agreements

• I have searched for and ensured there isn't already an open issue regarding this.
• I have ensured the feature I'm requesting isn't already in the latest supported Paper build.

I urge anyone who has any good mod ideas not listed to please add them to this list, I am only 1 person and have very likely missed an amazing mod

Were we gonna make our own client for this and all @DevScyu ?
Or just use the curseforge one?
