How many shouts happen a day? 1 every minute, 1 every 5 minutes? Even If its only 1 every 5 minutes that's $144,000 dollars a day! So what do we use this money for? Some of it is used to advertise stores and sales obviously. But a HUGE portion of this money is going to simple purposes, shouts just because we feel like it! Stop the madness! There are builders in need. If we could take just half of this money, and put it into a trade sign we could collect over 75k a day, enough to sponsor 5 builders to resident EVERY day!!!! That's 150 sponsorphips a month!!!!! All we need is you. We need to take money and (when we think of shouting put 1k in the sign instead). Hopefully someone, perhaps a mod, could see to the making of this trade sign for sponsorships to get builders to resident. So stop wading your money and help builders out!!!!!
yeah, then they would not understand how to work for there money and just think life is handed to them on a silver platter
I'm rather against the idea of giving money directly to builders. I still believe the notion of hard-work-and-reward, where the opportunity and resources are given the builders to earn their own money and buy resident status. That way, the rank will be more treasured and more satisfaction will be gained. Also, shouts are a great way to absorb excess money from the economy and prevent serious inflation in the long run. So instead of giving money directly, why don't we set up and maintain some builders-only farm towns using that sponsorship and provide a conducive environment for them to farm and earn money?
Work for your money... If we just hand out money, they won't get any further then what we gave them, hence they'll just assume money is given to them, like above said, on a silver platter. I understand giving tools and things to help the Builders out a little, but just handing them things won't help anyone in the long run.
