I'm just going to read your above post there.

1 in 10 Mayors abuse players buying plots? How are they getting banned for nothing if they didn't do anything. Our moderators don't do that and they simply don't ban for the fun of it. If Mayors are abusive, then it happens. In some ways this server is like the real world, people take advantage of other less fortunate people. Nothing can be done to stop the "scam" because the users that get "scammed" don't even report what happened. If you want something to be done, teach users about your SKIDing topic. They must file a complaint for anything to be done, and if nothing is done.. well they don't just buy another plot from the same person do they? Mayorship isn't about wealth, it is about having your own personal town with whatever rules you please. They spent 85k for their rank, why not be able to use their town and make their rules? What you are proposing is saying Mayors get no rights for their own town, and simply plotowners own the town. Also, the top Mayors are most recommended because they are fair, I don't understand where you are going with that statement.

 

If mayors do actually remove you for no reason then you can report them for scam, however if you were a mayor, you would not agree to most of these rules. But since you are not one yet you do not understand that fact.

 

That rule has been there since you joined the server.. -_-

 

yes this is a rule and it is not a new one. I believe it has been there way before you even joined the game. Also, why did u even post the rules anyways. I have read the rules and I already know them.

 

Tough love once upon a time I was a builder and I lived in las vegas rules were if you were offline for more then 2 weeks jwpwns would claim all your stuff. He claimed a chest full of diamonds 2 chestfulls of cracked cobblestone (which was $10k per stack before I believe) and I almost quit cuz of it. Plot costs $5k

 

Im assuming you made this based on your own experiences... If any Resident is facing abuse, simply leave the town and find another. There are plenty of towns with wholesome and just mayors. My town is one of them.

 

Go to the townrules before you buy a house, make a screenshot of the rules. When the townrules are changed during your stay you can use the screenshot as evidence. Agree only to the rules if the offline-time is 15+ days like you said. For example I use a 20 day offline-time or just let them tell me, when they are on a holiday, have an upcomming examen or what so ever. Nobody heard of pen and paper? Make a small sketch of your city, place the names of the villagers on the right plots and the amount of time that they are gone.

Don't go raging at all mayors just look at the rules, don't like the rules? THERE ARE A LOT OF CITIES !!!

 

you really like to complaint about mayors dont you.

 

Mayors have paid 85K for their town and over 10K to make their town. Aether and Nether are only 20K which is not a lot. I'm not saying it should be taken away for abusing it but taking 85K and the cost of the town away from a mayor who probably worked 5x as hard to get mayor as someone who probably earned 20K in a week.

 

It's like this. Living in a town is like buying a new car. Look around, talk to people, get information about the town, research. And don't forget to read the fine print. With so many towns out there one is bound to suit your needs. My first town that I was in didn't have a time limit, as far as I know (actually I should go back and check). Anyway one of my towns that people are living in, don't have to worry about me demolishing their house. I think of a persons house in my town as a work of art. I like the different types of houses that are made. One is even pink. LOL. My point is that my town follows the same rules as ECC. If you can follow these rules then living in my town is a breeze.
Too bad my town is barely built. Oh and so far I have 5 people living in my ton and the total I made is $500. I gave away 4 of them (one of which a player was helping me with something so I compensated his work with a free plot of land)

SO DON'T GO JUDGING ALL MAYOR/PRESIDENTS FOR SCAMMING!

It's like saying your an attention wh*re, and all residents/builders are like that too.

Not really, but it hurts doughnut...

...this is more of a complaint than a suggestion, anyway.

 

I changed my town rules due to an incident with a raging resident...

soo he was offline for 8 days so I lwc removed him, the mods rejected it due to "high value items inside the chests"
so they said wait at LEAST 2 weeks, so I told them i'd wait 2.5 weeks. 1 week later the guy comes back on raging at me and then starts telling all the residents in the town that i'm a noob out to steal all the stuff o_o

now it's 1 month inactivity in my town.

Mayors can do WHATEVER they like in the town as long as it goes with the rules also.... some towns have VERY strict laws so keep an eye out for that. If you hate it so much, buy a town yourself xD solves everything :)

 

I dont understand how someone can NOT be aware there are more then one town open for them. If they take one look at the Town Portals list of go through the tutorial then they would know there is more then one town.

 

Guys...when in the world did he ever say that every single mayor was like this? When did he even say a third of the mayors were like this?

Honestly, I feel this thread is getting such little support because mayors are feeling offended and/or greedy more than anything...

honestly, this is part of the re- erm, nevermind. >.>
