Honestly, the 10r vault fee has been in place for a very long time, for a matter of reasons. Volt, the idea isn't bad, but we're not going to be changing the vault up any time soon. We already did that with adding more pages. When you reach 5 pages, you no longer have to pay the vault fee of 10r. Also, just a little.. Hint.. Vouchers may be more obtainable soon.
I must have misread that, because for a moment I thought you were insulting the gloriousness of lava walls. You are aware I graduated top of my lava wall in SMP5, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on SMP5's wild, and I have over 300 confirmed lava walls....yes? _____________
1) ... 2) it's very useful because not only do I have enough room for auctions, I do not need to pay the annoying fee. I think it is annoying to pay, but there is a reason for it. 3) Not really. A non supporter has every right to make their own mega mall. There is no stopping that. I am a diamond supporter not for the perks, but, to support this server. I am not very rich, I have less than 60k. But, I have to give my own money to other people, who almost instantly say afterwards, "well you are a diamond supporter, you can afford that", but truth be told, I can't. I am way too generous, but, when people beg, I be very nice, yet, all the time I get a very rude response. If you don't want to support, because you can't afford it, or you just want the perks, I really don't need to know that, nor is it my fault. 4) At least you don't have people begging for money all the time.
You gotta pay to mine on Utopia Oh and the vault fees are made I think so people don't use it as a storage chest.
you have to pay to mine on utopia? seriously? your lucky non supporters can even go into town here. Or else everyone would come here for no hunger, fall damage and everlasting day. Obviously you cant let everyone use it or else it would take away from the pros of being a supporter.
In all honesty I think there should be a fee but the max I think it should be as 2500 per page. 10000 is way too much
Was not starting a war. I was just saying that you have to pay to mine on Utopia. No need to be mean.
its not hard to make 10k in a week, even without supporter, 4 weeks later you have free vault access. note: i only have 3 vault pages atm cause 10r isnt that big of a deal unless you have a multiple dc auction will be getting the other two soon
That could lead to problems with mining and the wild, what's to stop you going out to mine on a server you never play on, then changing back to your main server after for easy resource movement?
no, just no reasoning: i do different things on different servers some of which my inventory remains full
I see the point you are trying to make, but you are overlooking some vital data points. We are more like real-life than you think (except for the getting free rupees everyday of course). Trade is never free. To see this more clearly, consider each server a separate city. (yes, these are all Texas cities) Smp1: Dallas Smp2: Austin Smp5: College Station Smp9: Houston If I want to send a pallet of wood or couple of doors to Houston from Dallas, it is gonna cost me a shipping charge, is it not? Consider the vault fees your shipping charge. We could make it dependent on the item shipped like irl, but that seems rather confusing. Instead, we use a flat rate system. And your note about free labor: As it is in the real world, we have the ability to drive from Austin to College Station (about 120 miles) to work everyday, but it is bothersome and most people do not enjoy it much. The more realistic choice is to relocate closer to work, thus invoking a relocation fee (purchasing a new house, etc) much like relocating servers in the Empire and building a new residence. A side not about the economic autarky you claim is in effect: Even if we had a free vault system, people are simply unwilling to do more work than they absolutely have to. The simple task of opening the vault, loading it, then crossing servers, and emptying it on the other side takes time and many players don't like to take the time to complete this task, regardless of its price. Each server, like each city, has it's own economy. It's a fact and it's never going to change due to the community's willingness to pay for the convenience. It is the fundamentals of every economic system. You can take a pallet of wood and it costs $100, make a bed out of it and it costs $400. Without the mark-up of goods based on convenience to obtain, the economy crashes. If we were to make a 1r fee on every shop transaction as you suggest, then it is no longer a convenience fee and merely becomes a sales tax...In reality, by invoking the convenience (vault) fee, we are supporting the very economy that you are fighting so hard to protect. Which side are you really on?
i think 72Volt just took an economics course and learned a few new terms and felt like flexing his vocabulary a bit LOL
3) Actually being a supporter doesnt really help, most spend it, it has what you do, not whqt ya pay. That gets you rupees.
