I doubt I'm thinking well...but signs?

[LinkN64]

Hey! I'm trying to bring a bit of civilization to the ruins(which I will refer to a Makallano.... Yeah I know it's not official and I have no authority, but I don't believe there is currently a background to them...correct?) by finding people to set up shops and buisinesses. It will be great for roleplay, because the shop owners(by choice of coruse! Jeez don't give me that look...) will be real people, with real schedules, not like harny and his disappear act. But I was wondering if someone could set up signs once we get a few buisinesses? I'm not thinking of anything specific... I don't know what would be better, Weapon Repair, or "so-and-so's" Weapon Repair, but that's not much of a matter. There will also be part time guards, making sure that the ulbernauts don't kill the shoppers, and if there's a training buisiness, then by all means...so that's all the help I'll need, if someone is willing to give it(I doubt this takes a new client, just a small update, right? If it takes a client than stop me right here...). Any questions, please ask, any answers, please post, and I might put some other things if I forget them in this post...but I think it'd be an easy way out for a new town, especially because it's "New Makallano".

So, you want the possible new city to have some signs?
Shall I take the liberty to rate this "Too obvious to be true", then?

It's not good to tell people that if they are mad they can "go screw a cow" and then ask that they not flame you ;P Be careful with your words please.

The ruins are ruins. They are meant to be dead, whatever they once were. If you want to bring them back to life, make it entirely a player initiative - with player merchants and player guards. I don't see why official guards would need to watch over something abandoned that a few foolish (truly foolish, to set up shops in such a dangerous area) people decide to put together ;}

No signs though. Maybe when we have a player-sign system, you can do whatever you want (I would still avoid giving places arbitrary names, unless you have a story behind your choice of "Makallano"). But it's not an official place. It's lost to time and civilization, populated now by aggressive animals. Signs just don't make sense.

Wow come night...and yeah, sorry about saying that, wasn't in my right mind eh heh....but now I understand, so this can be deleted, I doubt it shows example to anyone else of something not to say.  /me walks off in embarrasment
EDIT: There is a history, though, but it's kind of pointless to say, just because, well I see yuor point now...but I have one more question...would it be bad to keep up in the RP about it and solely inhabit it?
EDIT2: And I couldn't be sorrier about the way I thought you guys would react, I come from mean forums where they would have responded in the way I described...lesson learned, the Planeshift forums are very nice.

[ThomPhoenix]

What, he wanted to make the ruins a new city?
I seriously could not get that from his post, but that's what you get with bad spelling and grammar

[LinkN64]

That's indeed what I get. Not a new city, but RPing that that was what it used to be. Since it's not official, it's all kind of pointless...

[LinkN64]

I have bad typing, I simply do it too fast without checking it over  But anyway, I think I'll just handle it myself, making this thread null and void. And again, yes my lesson is learned that the forums are nicer than others...if bringing some shops there is bad, then PM me, but if you don't mind, please delete this thread, it's a waste of bandwidth.

taking shops there isnt a bad idea, just many is.. since the over danger in the area, the place would be a well suited place for a blackmarket, and shady bizness's..

No need to delete this, it's good for discussions :} Unless you have a very major "pleasepleaseplease" request. It's fine either way. If you have a story for the ruins, by all means continue with it - just as long as it's not something like "400 years ago a civilization arose which was then vanquished by the forces of..." since that's not something you can have an easy time proving.

Hey is it just me that noticed..."screwing a cow" might be good for me...being a kitty after all and there's no milk in Akkio    And you've got the idea...except it was aboit 8 years ago, when all the current Enki were little kitties And now there's a Kran Warlord in hiding to find who controls the ulbers(to DESTROY!!! .V. ), and it's all going to be player controlled... I guess a better idea would be to have guards guarding newbs who want to shop, and then letting the experienced players take em out, but the shop owners will mainly be selling swords, armour, healing potions, etc., so it's pretty much just a mission to bring life back to there I suppose, even if so called Makallano isn't there But I'm all for discussing, especialy with people who want to help.
