  3. I said to keep the drama from what NR thread not to cross over to here not NR stay out of LLO. That is decision is up to LLO members to decide on not me.
  4. Ah, Ok, misread it. :)

    I still feel like we shouldn't get too involved with them.

  5. I have no intention on bringing the drama back home, i meant a Technologies, media, and Information exchange, no politics or economics.

  9. Yeah, you had that plan for nearly a year now...So far it's only a major mobspawner...
  10. Yeah, sadly.

  11. I think the brown line should stay above water, since the rest of the brown line is above ground. :)

    Meh, I think it looks fine the way it is, but I wouldn't have a problem with it being underwater.

  12. Well, I thought it would just look nicer over the water, but it can stay.
    It would be fairly easy to put it underwater, and as I said above, it would make the area look nicer.

  14. Regarding NR Members (or others) joining the LLO etc.

    If you want to come out and build stuff, help us repair griefed structures, or just hang out, everyone is welcome!

    For your convenience, I have looked into the future and extracted a few snippets of conversation so that you understand in advance what kind of place the LLO is.

    "I want to build a giant tower/farm/space ship/glowing pickle in the an empty area of the desert near the downtown!"
    Please do! Make sure that you're not building on top of someone else's underground property/mine/whatever. Try to make sure that your not blighting someones view, and don't take more land that you really need for your project. If you're really going to build something massive, post your ideas here in the forums. The built up areas of the LLO have been developed and redeveloped. You may think something is empty available land, but someone else may think otherwise. Just ask here in the forums. We're mostly nice to new things. Basically use common courtesy and the golden rule. We don't have any official "approval" process for construction, but asking people for input or even their help makes everyone happy.

    "I want to build a giant King's Tower in the desert near the downtown!"
    You can call your tower whatever you want. Read the paragraph above for general guidelines. Is it going to be shaped like a pickle?

    "I want to build the King's Tower and have authority over all the buildings around it. I think we should demolish the existing farms, and I'm going to build new farms, and I'll charge people Zlyngots for food and wool!"
    No, no, no. The LLO is an informal (arguably anarchic) wild outpost, and we don't have any leaders per se. That's not to say there aren't people who's voice carries more weight, but they don't have any real authority other than the pickaxe in their hand and the blocks in their inventory. Also, what the heck are Zlyngots and why would we want them?

    "I want to hold elections so that my Kings Tower has the support of the people, and I can rule with the authority of the people! We'll change the name of the LLO to The Democratic Monarchic Zlyngot Trade Union of the LLO."
    Just stop. Build your pickle palace. We're not changing things around radically. We're not voting anyone into anything...

    "We need Zlyngots to improve trade and form businesses!"
    No. There are already two currencies in the EMC: Rupees and Emeralds. We don't need another. People barely use Rupees outside of town, and emeralds are all but useless because trading with villagers isn't something people do a lot of. I don't care if you read a college level text on economic theory, and now you want to create a play currency based on some conversion of resources or work units, or quarts of pickle juice. Additional currencies are doomed to failure regardless of how you plan to define or support them. Most people in the LLO just give or trade resources directly. We're nice that way. If you need a double chest of cobblestone to build your tower, someone is likely to just give it to you.

    "Since you said I couldn't hold elections or be king, or anything else that I think is a great idea, I started my own Zlyngot trade union monarchy on another server. We should join together to make an empire that spans all the servers. I'm going to send emissaries to the LLO to build a consulate and start talks."
    Congratulations on your wild outpost! They're a lot of fun! Please feel free to build a consulate or whatever, but we're probably not going to do any "joining of forces" or anything like that. Let us know if you need a double chest of cobblestone or whatever to build your consulate. If it is going to be shaped like a pickle, you should consider green wool and mossy cobblestone.
  15. Ok, maybe I'll build my pickle shaped castle to take over the LLO somewhere else... >.>
