I been playing a couple of weeks now and love emc and become gold supporter. But I really fell that there are to many shops some are not stocked and looked after. Maybe there should be a fee to setup a shop and treat it more as an investment. I would rather have less shops and more quality stores what do you all think.
I agree that the amount of shops on each smp is a lot. But a few of us are trying to help out by making Directories / teleport hubs of stocked shops on each smp. I made a thread listing all of them here https://empireminecraft.com/threads/free-services-list-of-directories-tp-hubs-on-emc.64005/ I see this more as an opportunity for us as EMC community members to reach out and help/give back ~_^
Nah that would discourage shops. The main way people get rupees is through shops and 50000 would be way to much to have to start one.
I agree with Steamboat. I am against a lot of regulations on what you can or can't do as long as you aren't hurting anyone else. Plus it kinda makes it fun to travel around and visit them until you find the one you can call your favorite.
