    I would just like to say that I fully support this cause. I think a lot of res+ look down on builders and most of the time it is completely unnecessary. Feel free to send any builders being mistreated to me and I will do whatever I can to help :)

    I'd love to help out. I've been running a Builder Only town since the beginning of May. Our main focus is to provide opportunities for Builders to make money. Our town offers several farms & other ways to make money. More information can be found here: http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/swagridge-a-builder-only-town.52480/

    As for giving money out & buying a Builder the Resident rank... I feel that this defeats the purpose of the 'Builder Rights Association'. Many people aren't fond of Builders simply because of them begging for money. Opportunities for Builders to make money is way better than just giving it out.. In my Builder town, we sometimes hold contests and give out a small prize, a couple thousand ecodollars. One contest was whoever could build the best looking house.. etc.

    I fully support this & if there is anything I can do to help out, let me know either in-game or on here.

    I think most of them are lazy. Let them be lazy. If they want resident they work for it. I am sick of builders begging and all. I personally think they should be making there own money. Whats the point of resident if you have the feeling you didn't work for it. Also I think that if they choose to beg so let it be

    They aren't lazy at all. I never see lazy builders. They just don't know what to do. They have no idea what "voting" is. They finally figure it out, and mess it up.

    Without any money they're only bet is to walk through a wall of water and mine for a few hours, learn of the /sell command, and figure out where the forums are.

    Whenever I see builders who know what to do, they get resident in two days max. When they don't know what to do, could take a few weeks.

    I've seen builders stay builders for months, until they realize there are forums.


    Unless it magically falls in place: Someone helps them, they find the (currently unfinished) tutorial. And read all the signs and read the wiki and the rules, then no, they aren't going to get resident, and people will think their lazy.

    So you think begging isn't lazy. When I was a builder I just built things while figuring it out in one day. After days me and igorvanloo figured the stuff out. No begging at all

    You know it's funny. The word "begging" or the concept of "begging" isn't in my post at all.

    And not everyone learns the same way. I figured everything out on the first two/three days. I spent almost an hour and i read every sign on the tutorial area (it was a lot better back in my day then it is now).

    It's funny because you ignored my post and tried to steer the conversation onto a point that I hadn't even mentioned :p

    Most of them are not lazy. They don't know how to vote therefore they cant money. And if they don't have money then the way that they feel is right to get money is to beg.

    That's an awesome thing to do! Sadly, I heard about this town before and started working on a project inspired by it. It's a hotel for builders and it will include most of the things you have except for a portal :( And about the second paragraph. Yes we've been getting these kind of comments a lot and it's made me change my perspective about this. Maybe we will change to giving opportunities for money. About the contests. That is exactly what we are about so if you would like to help us or give a donation just pm me or send me mail or pm me on the fourms etc.

    Ok well 1st if you don't like this then just go away and second most people who log onto the server for the first time dont know how to vote or know what a pumpkin axe is. Again, if you don't like the idea screw off because a lot of people think it's a good idea and support if fully.

    Why Mayors or Presidents should have ways and tools to make money. The builders that we don't do not have anything (money, tools, food, plots, farms etc.).
