https://www.ecocitycraft.com/wiki/index.php?title=Network_Rules#Clause_5_-_Town_Claims Part of this clause currently states: With the addition of the Town Claiming feature for Tycoons+, town transfers are possible by means of attaining a rank and claiming it under any of the following criteria: The owners of the town are offline for a minimum of 6 months. The owners of the town are permanently banned from the server, and a period of 7 days has passed since the ban was issued. The owners of the town have signed and consented to the sale/transfer of a town officially, to be completed in full via the Town Claim application. I suggest changing 'The owners of the town" to specify both the current and official owners of the town. After this section in the clause, it starts specifically using "Official Owner", making the use of just "owner" seam like it means only the current owners have to be inactive or banned to claim a town.
I'm going to tag @Physicistsmom for her input as personally I think we ought to just remove that clause from the rules (they aren't actually rules and town claim requirements are covered much more in depth in the application section). If phys doesn't agree I'll simply update this to be more clear.
