The Nation of Volt [Established]

Introduction!:

Hello, EMC! In case you were wondering the old Voltian thread (here) has been closed to allow for a new thread. This is the new official thread. The old thread shall be kept simply as a record.

What?:

This is the official thread for the Volt City Outpost! A medium sized east wild outpost that is made for everyone! We are established to help protect your creations from any people who may threaten them. We are located on SMP9.


This is a bridge in Volt.

This is a 3D overview of Volt City

Who?:

Official list is being created. Check back soon.

Where?:

Volt is on the East Wild Frontier (the cords are x=14050, y=65, z=-3000). There is also a nether rail constructed from a portal near to spawn all the way to Volt, all you need is a minecart! I cannot give out info on this rail on the thread but if you contact me through convo here I can help you get to Volt!

Why?:

Volt is an excellent community that has many other players and offers a unique opportunity to anyone who may want to leave the confines of town for more building space and the opportunity to create things that are not possible in town! We have done away with any political experimentation present in the NR. Instead we aspire to be a fun, positive, and active community.
The Nation of Volt also has lots of land and buildings that are readily inhabitable at little to no cost! You could get a free house! We also have a functioning economy if you're looking to make some rupees.

What can Volt do for you?

Volt has Several farms with several on the way.We already have an Iron, Gold, Potato, Wheat, Wool, Nether Wart, Carrot, Sugarcane, Pumpkin, Melon, and darkroom spawner. Just ask Rock00888 for locations!

What can you do for Volt?

Volt is full of opportunities for service! We can always use a new building somewhere! Just ask Rock00888. We also have a list of planned, completed, and work in progress projects in the 3rd post!

Other Info:

APPLICATION

The Nation of Volt is a number of outposts that have come together in the SMP9 wild. We aim to build a harmonious outpost where creativity and community are encouraged.
I've been working hard on Volt for the past year. So if you would like to come out we would be glad to welcome you! However to keep everything running smoothly and allow everyone to work and play in a safe environment I'd like to establish some simple rules.
If you decide to come to Volt you will receive a free plot of land on which to build whatever you want! We are always looking for new businesses and residents! Contact me for details, questions, concerns or ideas!

I got scared when I saw the other thread was locked. I'll be watching this one now

Yes, but I asked to lock so
It's all good!

I'll be posting some pictures of Volt City soon. Just something to look forward to.

same

Ya, perhaps I could have given warning...
But oh well.

I have updated the current projects. Please contact me if you are good at building any form of farm! All help is greatly appreciated and rupees are available!

Hey, rock can I get some land to maybe try to build a park sorry but I can't make a amusement park in that building il sell it back if you want but can I just make a regular park?

Ok, NP, I'll start a convo so we can find an area. I'll buy the tower back for the original price I sold it to you for, if you want to sell it.

I am want to keep it but if you want it back I will gladly sell it to you.

Oh ok awesome. I don't have a burning desire to have it back.

I will be reorganising the governmental structure of Volt City and The Nation of Volt to include ranks and a more socialist leaning policy on land. My hope is that will also attract some new faces to Volt! I will also be rewriting the first post to make it more visually appealing! The pictures I was going to post will have to wait just a few more days . Watch, like, comment and join to stay in the loop on all things Voltian!
Edit: Plus we have a new Police Station in the works!
Edit 2.0: Soon we shall declare 2 major national holidays!

I have also created a brief history of Volt in the 3rd post for anyone who wants!

Wow, it has been awhile! We're still here! Anyone wanting to join can contact me or just come on out. Anyone's welcome!
Also I'm planning some Major governmental overhauls. Including, but not limited to outside the cities land reform, some awesome new economic tools for businesses to start up (since sell shops are no longer working in the wild). I'm also hoping to start a very large redstone/steve research facility in Volt City.
As I mentioned earlier I have made 2 national holidays! The first is Voltian Independence Day! VID is just as is sounds, when we celebrate not being not free! This shall be on the 24th of August every year.
The second national holiday will be Voltian Achievement Day! This shall be a day when we celebrate the achievements of Voltians. This shall be on the 24th of March.
Thanks for reading!
