To be honest, I don't really have a yes/no opinion on this. I can see how people might think this could be fun and great for roleplays, but in the long run, it can be kinda' considered pointless. My reasons:
- This can be used to spark arguments if one player "divorces" another and like stated byt others, some might take it personally. I realize that what I'm stating most likely won't be a problem given the fact that most will realize it doesn't mean much, but there will always be the few who don't realize it.
- I can see how this can be fun in a roleplay, but is it really necessary to have this? Think about it. I'm not trying to be a downer or whatever, but it would most likely be a waste of time. I'm not even sure most players would use it for anything besides roleplays. If it was used outside of these circumstances, it most likely would just cause drama.
- In my opinion, roleplays wouldn't even need this. If I did roleplays and ended up married to someone, I wouldn't spend the time to use a command. I could simply just change my nickname to something like, "Mrs. *Fake surname*". Even if people wanted to be more specific on their actual names and don't include a surname, I still think it would be pretty obvious to a roleplay chat that so and so was married. What roleplays would you really need to create a marriage in beside a family one? In my opinion, those aren't that popular as it is.
- I feel as if defaults wouldn't pay too much attention to this. To me, the ranked members would find this more entertaining. The ranked members do tend to stay around for longer periods of time than defaults, and I don't think a default would want to bother with this if they were just stopping in on the server.
- There is also the opinion factor. There are some people who think same-sex marriage is wrong, and I think that some LGBTQ+ members on the server won't be happy if the /marry command is limited to being husband and wife. I have seen people get into arguments about this issue in creative chat before with people just being LGBTQ+ in general, and if there is no one moderating (which I know is uncommon), the arguments can become pretty heated. I just think this could cause controversy. I know some religions abide by that and that there may not be much we can do at the moment to change that, but if people kept their opinions/religious values to themselves, then I think maybe this might have more of a shot at being implemented.
- Say there was a real-life couple who were frequent players on this server. They might find it adorable if they were "married" or "in a relationship" (according to another version consisting of a command that makes you boyfriend and girlfriend, boyfriend and boyfriend, or girlfriend and girlfriend, but take a look at the reason above this).
I'm not trying to diss this suggestion. If I'm being honest, many of my friends would love this and think it adorable. I'm completely neutral on this suggestion. I have no doubt people would enjoy this, but how long will it last before the idea grows unpopular and brings hate on some? The suggestion can definitely be improved to where it could work better. This is just my opinion. If it really is as popular as it seems and continues to grow in favor, I think I should be implemented. A lot of my points have been stated before, but I'm just summing up what I think is wrong with the idea.
