Accepted Suggestion [Zoning Law Amendment]

+1, please

 

+1 this should've happened a long time ago

 

+100000, as there is an old inactive farm near Jarton, fantasticos and I want to place my town there.

 

I'm not in favor of further complicating the zoning system by adding a bunch of "ifs" to it. Just simplify things and completely scrap the zoning system; It literally serves no purpose and all it does it makes users who want to expand their towns angry.

 

+1
really smart

 

+1 I usually don't agree with you jmich but on this, I do +1

 

eh +1/-1 If your computer breaks then someone can troll you buy putting their town next to yours

 

love this idea. I can't place my president town or even apply since a mayor in my nation is deployed and staff doesn't make any exceptions.

 

The only issue with B is the 30 day wait, do you really want to have to wait 30 days for your president/mayor/town application to be accepted?

I do prefer A, perhaps we can make it a little like our town claim rule. If the town has no active owners (e.g. permanently banned or offline/inactive for a period of months) then no permission is required to build next to it?

Any complaints of it being over complicated are simply stupid, it would be no more complicated than our town claim rule. Scraping the system may annoy town owners who would prefer a bit of space from their towns.

 

It further complicates the town placement system regardless - Why aim for complexity when you can make it even more simple? Anyway, if a town owner is going to be annoyed about a town right next to them, they're still going to be annoyed regardless if it's 15 blocks away from them.

 

+1 it makes sense and I see no reason why this should not be accepted. I think A would be a better option though.

 

I would like to see Option A if it is changed to all current ingame and legal owners not including the original applicant, and the timeframe would be the month in which you specified.

+1 for this idea, I agree

 

+1. It's only fair!

 

How about instead of a 30 day objection period, I propose a different opt-in/out thing. So when you apply for a town, you can opt-in to current zoning laws, which means no future towns can be within 15 blocks of yours, or you can opt-out to zoning laws, which means that future towns can be within 15 blocks if they so please.

I hereby co-sponsor this proposed amendment, signed this 28th day of March in the year of two thousand and sixteen at precisely twenty hours and fifty nine minutes past midnight.

 

+1 This is a fantastic suggestion that needs to be implemented in order to cope with the growing amount of towns in both our worlds. Should not be such a pain to place a town without the permission of an inactive user.

It's to give power to the owner who was in that area first. If I place a town as a mayor, and want to place a town as a present next to it, I should have priority over the random person placing their town their. At least that's it's intention.

But I do agree with the suggestion, in certain circumstances it's best if the town is just placed. Those circumstances are when the mayor just simply isn't there to give a reply.
