Hey there! I've done this kind of questionnaire thing before with /warp grimoire before i started building it to help myself get a better understanding of what the community is looking for. It worked out really well on that thread so I'm hoping to get some good knowledge from this one too. This time, instead of a vault town, I'll be making the most detailed shop town on the server. I've got the build design all figured out but I need your thoughts on the overall idea. I'll be introducing some big market sellers into the town- about 2-3, and rent out the remaining plots to anyone who would like to sell. The purpose of this is to get some traffic into the town to help out both the big and small players on the server. I also wanted to make sure the plots were rented out and not bought so that the town would be kept up-to-date with their sellers. This would be similar to the /market except in a much more impressing setting. I've already got two large players to agree to set up shop in the town and its just a matter of getting you (the general public) to voice your opinions on this. Hope to see you down below! Questions raised from the discussion so far: Would it be better to rent out the plots or to sell them at a slightly higher 1-time payment, but remove the members if they are inactive for more than 2 weeks?
I would like to see that ,your vault town is magnificent and it is so good. I would love to see how much they are and if i could buy one
Its good to hear that you like the idea for the new town! If you wanted to purchase a vault from the Grimoire, im afraid all of the vaults are currently sold off and you'll need to contact the vault owners directly and purchase it off of them. But if you mean to purchase a shop plot in the new town that im building, I'll actually be renting them out! This is to ensure that the town stays up to date with the stock and that inactive members are removed from the town... actually thats a good point! Would it be better to rent out the plots or to sell them at a slightly higher 1-time payment, but remove the members if they are inactive for more than 2 weeks?
Grimoire is a very awesome place, you are very talented and I'm sure however you make the town will work out well. I think renting is a good idea . But give the players more than 2 weeks, maybe a month. Sometimes there are holidays coming up and we can't always have access to the computer (like in places like Mexico).
Honestly would be a fan of renting, you could probably use the same system the market uses as that seems to function fine
I imagine you will have some shop allocations more prominent than others, I would suggest that any of the more prominent ones have rental periods that are less long (eg weekly or fortnightly) and the other ones to be more relaxed at a monthly rate. This way you ensure that if anyone does go inactive they are able to be rotated out more quickly, meaning you should have the prominent ones constantly open for business
Ohh! I like that a lot actually! Thats definitely a good way to do it and I'll structure my town around that idea
The town would certainly die out quite quickly, by swapping out the owners, it will ensure it stays active
Im thinking about making it so players can rent out a plot for like 5-10k/week OR have the option of giving a large sum of money for indefinite use- but they will be required to keep their shop updated and stocked in order to not be evicted. I think thats the best way to go about it since it gives people the option to run a long term shop or just a small temporary one as well
I’d suggest making it affordable and cheap. I would say $5k/week is good for regular shops and maybe $25k/week for prime shops.
I agree, I think the prices will need to be figured out later on when looking at the size of the plots and their accessibility as well but 5k -25k is definitely a good starting point
