I think iConomy would be more useful but players simply don't know how to use it, i barely know how to use it...

PorteCoulissante - I never knew we had this but it is awesome that we have it, will be playing with this shortly!

MagicCarpet has always been a great intensive for players to make awesome builds in order to get promoted. Maybe some more intensives wouldn't be a bad idea, though i honestly can't think what...

Sponge Restore - How does one craft a sponge block?

ChestShop - Can any player set a ChestShop up without the assistance of an administrator?

Wireless Redstone - Same question as ChestShop.

JSONAPI - What... lol

Sponge Restore - How does one craft a sponge block?

The only thing I can help with as I have no idea about the others

You need string [x4] and sand [x5] (no idea why tho) to make sponges :7
