I'd like to formally petition for a dock to be placed outside my tower entrance. I'll give you 500 dollhairs

You haven't logged on in years.

Go to another shard.

U suck.

Nice troll. Way to contribute.

Some debates to ponder....

• Staff or community decision or both
  Raw resources or finished product (ex. logs/ore vs. ingots/boards)
  Upkeep costs or not
  Immediate add-ons or incremental (depends on the type of add-on)
  Single player owns all houses or x amount of players need to own a certain %
  x number of houses to establish "town" or not
  x types of houses to establish "town" or not
  deed housing for a structure or not
  Rules for guild/player activity tied to what stays or what goes "poof"
  Activity in town area
  Town contribute to community (public library, vendors, etc.)
  Need to create a list of external and internal add-ons that could be achieved similar to the silver reward system.

Don't know if this helps, the following is my memory of how it was conducted back in 2010.

Staff or community decision or both - Community Decision by polling.
Raw resources or finished product (ex. logs/ore vs. ingots/boards) - Ingots/Boards
Upkeep costs or not - Not
Immediate add-ons or incremental (depends on the type of add-on) - Incrementally based on story line of an event.
Single player owns all houses or x amount of players need to own a certain % - Didn't matter.
x number of houses to establish "town" or not - The entire area of said "town" must have been owned by a single entity, ie; guild, and or person.
x types of houses to establish "town" or not - Didn't matter.
deed housing for a structure or not - No
Rules for guild/player activity tied to what stays or what goes "poof" - ??
Activity in town area - The guild with the add-ons must have been one of the most active and usually large in #'s at the time.
Town contribute to community (public library, vendors, etc.) - Yes, this to was a given as town-addons are fun for everyone, except for the haters, but then again haters love to hate.
Need to create a list of external and internal add-ons that could be achieved similar to the silver reward system. - Never done in the past as far as I can remember, might be cool, not sure how laborious to implement.

Just an update to this. Anarcho, Kaivan, and myself will more than likely be having a chat this week regarding Player Town/Add-ons and how we want to develop a policy for it.

As always the 3 amigos pull through! Thanks guys!

Hopefully you go back and undo what you did before you implement whatever you come up with.

Pretty sure your guild has been gone before I got here and way before your props were taken. I do like the rune library but that's all you got going for you. Just my 2 cents.

For those that are wondering, we finished up a meeting on this topic about a half an hour ago. We've answered a lot of questions regarding the development of a new policy, although we aren't ready to publicize anything yet as we're just beginning significant work on the topic. There is one point that we would like to publicize: We have decided that players will not have any input on town add-ons. All decisions regarding who gets town add-ons, and what they can get, will be handled by staff. Beyond that, we cannot give any more details.

Great to hear! Thanks Kaivan and staff!
