After much talk tonight about a particular post on Stratics
here with MANY people, I decided to get some information and opinions on a particular idea.
Scotia (the originator of the Stratics post) wants to re-create a player-run town--either in the new lands to be opened with the Age of Shadows release, or his preferred facet of Felucca. Myself, I have been toying with a similar notion for months, limited to members of the Clan. However, I like the idea of getting other [guilds] involved, as well as individuals. This will allow some diversity and of course help form a real community.
This Thread is to address the idea of forming a Player Run Town--complete with a "town hall", specialized vendor shops, a tavern/inne, seperate guild houses for different guilds and/or profession and what ever else any decent town would need. We may not get a bank--but I still think a well planned and executed town would bring back what we all miss from the game..... Role Playing.
There would be a "mayor", voted for by citizens of the town. A town council, maybe even police. This will take major planning... and of course dedicated participation in the Role Play.
Role Playing is not saying things like, "Thou dost anger me," or any form of speech. It is not just participating in the occassional event or hunt, hanging out at a bank or being a loner. It is all of that and more. It is action and reaction of your characters with other player characters and being a communtiy of sorts. Assisting the young players in development, forming relationships, respecting and honoring each other as little pixelated individuals. Aiding when the call for help comes, doing things to make our pixelated people all they can be, and more.
Anyway, I digress.
The Issue: Creating a Player Run town
The Place: for me, more than likely the New Lands with the Age of Shadows release, your own thoughts are welcomed on this.
The Purpose: To re-introduce the concept of quality role-playing on a larger scale than just within a guild.
Post your thoughts, opinions, rants, praises, and anything else that pertains to this thread.... I want to know....
Thank you.
