Tutorial:Storing Blacklisted Items

Blacklisted items have a unique property on SkyBlock, which makes it complicated to safely store and transport them. Blacklisted items disappear from the player's Inventory after a small amount on time. Storing and creating blacklisted items is not punishable. For a list of such items, see Blacklisted Items.

Storing
First of all, you cannot store your blacklisted items in almost all containers. Regular Chests, Hoppers, Furnaces, Droppers, Dispensers, Backpacks, and Ender Chests all get checked by the system for any blacklisted items inside.

So, there aren't any vanilla containers that could be used to store those? Luckily, admins either forgot or intentionally left alone two vanilla containers unchecked: Trapped Chests and Item Frames. These two vanilla containers do not get checked by the system, making it easy to store and even display these items.

What about non-vanilla containers? Players get a bit more choice here. Any Carpentry Skill storage may be used to store blacklisted items. The only problem is that these storages can only be placed by players with VIP rank or above. Showcase Block can also be used, but keep in mind that UI items cannot be displayed inside of it.

Transporting
Previously, transporting blacklisted items was easy. Any backpack could be used, but these get checked too now. Despite this, transportation of blacklisted items is still possible.

As stated above, almost every storage gets checked, so the Ender Chest will not do. Here's the popular method for transportation of such items:


 * 1) As soon as the blacklisted item appears in the player's inventory, put it in the backpack.
 * 2) Quickly equip the backpack on the player's head armor slot. Since backpack is technically a Head item, it can be equiped as such.

This will allow the blacklisted items to be transported with no fear of loss. This method supports UI items.
