Rule Change Proposal

[ChuckB2000]

It has come to my attention that there are some rules in serious need of changing. The first one is the one plot limit. I had built a nice house, but wanted to build another something, maybe a quick build arena. Unfortunately, due to the rules, I was only allowed to have 1 plot. I suggest a plot limit of two.

I would also like it if you could make a co-owner on a plot. They could nuke it, add friends, remove friends, all the stuff that the owner does. This would be a great addition.

I would also like the role play rules to be ended, except in severe cases. Hotels are fun to have, and I don't think you should be banned for having one.

Players and mods alike, please share your opinions below.

Thank you,
ChuckB2000

You should get 2. Thats a good #.

The limit was two, but I think they lowered the plot limit to 1 due to the sheer size of everything added together and other complications within the plugins weirding out.

Role Playing can be very annoying to other people. If you want to roleplay, go to a server that allows it. It just clogs up the chat with things that aren't really sensible, and sometimes roleplays get out of hand. This is a building server.

Though it is true that they could alleviate it a little, by adding private chat, but that may also complicate things.

1. The reason why there's a limit of 1 plot now is because we have a plot shortage. This may be changed when this is no longer and issue (we're thinking of getting multiverse, having this world just to view and not build on, and having a brand new world with all new plots so we can have more plots readily available).
2. That would require the plugin to be re-written entirely, I think. You should probably only be adding people to your plot that you trust 100% (I.E. people you know in real life, people you have known for a couple months online, et cetera) so you won't need another person to help you moderate your own plot.
3. We have the "No Roleplaying" rule because about 2 months ago or so, we couldn't go for more than about 10 seconds before another person wrote in chat "Looking to hire staff for my night club!" or "New hotel, tpa to me for rooms!" or "Grand opening of my casino!" We couldn't /kick because it'd be a bunch of different people writing different messages, but it got to the point where we could barely see the chat at all. You can make your own hotels, build and decorate your own rooms, or have someone else help you build and decorate all the rooms in a hotel. You just cannot "claim" a room as your own or "staff" the establishment. Hotels are allowed, for looks only, not for their function.

If you have any more questions/comments, I'll be free to answer them, and feel free to ask me about anything I just posted. You may continue making suggestions, but I'm just telling you why these rules are here as they are currently (doesn't mean they'll never change, though).

Thank you for your opinions,
Kristen / kristoniface

<---- This guy thinks that there should be a 2 plot max for people that use they're plots. If a plot doesn't get activity for, say, 5 days and it has nothing on it, it should be nuked/disowned.

I feel that two plots may be a great addition. But it might be harder to manage the plots with nothing on it or bad builds an them. It's an interesting proposal, cimutant, and it sounds pretty cool.

i think its a good idea for 2 plots i built a house and i would really like to have a 2nd plot for some other build there i dont want to constantly clearing my plot for another build

Two plots would be nice, if more plots were to be added in the future, but I found that one was satisfactory in most cases, probably since I played since the limit had gone into effect.

I don't want roleplay rules to be abolished either, it's nice not having the chat clogged up. A suggestion I'd like to make is a spamguard plug-in of some sort, to prevent countdowns from occurring by kicking the individual, and then banning if it persists. I'd like the rules to be enforced a bit more too. I noticed during the last two weeks or so before the 1.5 update, that roleplayers and those who countdown spam ran rampant.

(Thanks for listening, if you did :U)

I say once you fill a plot, you can call a mod to inspect it. If they deem the plot full they can grant you a second one.

 

[Mr Dice]

XD... I hereby deem this plot full... wait, you've got a few blocks over there that are air, Plot Request DENIED

As for the roleplay rule, I think most mods take a common sense approach to it, as long as it's not affecting anybody's ability to use chat, it's fine.
