It's come to my attention that the town transfer rules are being misinterpreted.
I'm going to list the main points in this thread so you know where we stand.
(Earlier, I was going to simply revert all new owners and add back original owners, but this would be a bit harsh, so instead I will write up the following rules to ensure everyone is on the same page.)
- You can sell towns to each other, add new owners, and delete old owners.
- You cannot apply for town features unless you are the original owner of the town, or the official new owner.
- You can only become an original new owner of a town by filing for a town transfer.
- I will not honor any deals, contracts, paperwork, whatsoever regarding unofficial town transfers. Be sure you trust who you are doing business with. Should an old owner forum pm me requesting their town back, I need everyone to be absolutely clear, I will return the town to the OFFICIAL owner, and completely, 100% overlook ANY contracts that have been made. The ONLY way you are the official owner in my eyes, is if you either applied for the town originally, or made a town transfer. That's it.
Basically, I'm keeping everything as it was, while emphasizing the last point VERY CLEARLY!
EDIT:
To help with these changes, and to give you affordable piece of mind we've made the following changes:
- Town Transfer price has been dropped from 500,000 EcoDollars -> 150,000 EcoDollars.
- I will honor contracts that are NO MORE than 30 days old, to prevent panic for those who did not know about the change yet entered into an agreement.
- All contracts at this point are valid until December 31st 2018. This helps the change not be an immediate drastic one. Come January 1st 2019, I will begin honoring contracts of 30 days only.
