?

Do you think this would be a good mod to add?

Yes I do 2 vote(s) 28.6%
No I don't 5 vote(s) 71.4%
I have no opinion on this matter. 0 vote(s) 0.0%
  1. I am just making this to see how many people think adding factions would be a good thing.

    Pros:
    You could capture land in the wild so it cant be greifed.
    You can make a faction and survive in the wild with your friends or other group members(and maybe make new or more friends).
    You could have your own personal mine if you know the right commands.
    You could maybe earn more money from group donations.
    You could have workers in the group that will gather supplies for the group base.
    If your not the leader it could be like a job were you gather stuff and sell it to the group leader or you build or clear a plot of land for money.
    Etc.

    Cons:
    There might be some problems with people trying to claim land in towns on others res.
    There might be some disputes over land if there is a glitch and faction lands get erased and some other faction claims land.
    People in the group might steal from the group and leave.
    Faction mods (not server mods) might unclaim the faction land land make a faction and take the land.
    Etc.

    With the cons it mostly comes down to trust and hoping the next update doesn't delete your claimed land.

    If you vote and click "Yes I do." say why you think it is.

    If you vote and click "No I don't" say why you don't think so
  2. I say no, because for this to work, we would need PVP.
  3. I would have to say no. Justin already has a lot on his plate (no pun intended) This would also cause problems because we woudl have to many next to spawn this would croud up wild
  4. Not necessarily I've seen servers that have factions and no pvp.
    Not as fun but ya. I'd use only as a anti greifing tool.
  5. If there's no PVP for stuff like this, it wont work. Why, because then people cant take other peoples land, so people who weren't in a faction, couldn't go out and get stuff.
  6. No claiming land in the Wild. You have the Town for that, and this has been CLEARLY stated by mods hundreds of times. No matter how many times you ask, there will be no claiming Land.

    I do agree, however, that making a group and then setting like an HQ to teleport to in the wild, (at a cost of 100 rupees every tp), or group benefits like gifts sent by the leader, or rupee bonuses. Also, maybe a clan tag like <DT> (Delta Team) in front of your name in chat.

  7. The reason EMC is the way it is would be because it stands out from other servers. If we had "factions" then it would just blend in with all the other servers out there and that wouldn't be good. Also, the whole point of the town is so that you have a place to build without having to worry about grievers. If you want to start a "faction" then you can make your base, or whatever you want to call it, on your res and you can just go to the wild to mine with each other whenever you want
