Phome

All the players homes need to be removed  until people stop abusing them by making a person the loging out and never loging into them again so people who want a house can’t get one. It should be set like apartment building where you have to pay to own it and if you miss a payment you get thrower out.

Then what would be the point in BUYING a house exactly?

Please never ever start a post with    “All the players homes need to be removed”  again, please.

But I do agree that homes should perhaps be regulated, maybe make them like shops? With a clan empowerment to shut them down, or something. I know it’s against the rules to warrant/forceentry in order to raid the lockers but it would be nice if we could shut down homes much like shops, or something.

I like zak’s idea.

That would actually sound like  a good idea. Then people don’t get to hog the house with a Char they never use.

warrant (direction of phome)

“Hey I like this house. Wonder if the person who owns it is active? Oh wait it doesn’t matter!”

closephome

“Mine now!”

–or–

warrant (direction of home)

closephome

buyhome

locker open

raid locker

sellhome

Could see it devolving into something like this really really fast. Just my two cents.

I would rather see an inactivity timer on phome. If the character is not logged in say “30 days” (don’t get stuck on 30 this can be raised or lowered) the home is sold and the locker purged.

*Stamp of Approval*

IMMs already said that if you are inactive for a long period of time with a phome they’ll strip it. Don’t take out phomes, that’s a stupid fucking idea.

I mean there are some huge Phomes that rarely get used, but are still bought. So That Idea actually sounds pretty good.

@kirash, Yeah I can see it turning into that, but at the same time, it would be a clan empowerment, like warrant is anyways, and there are already rules in place about that. And people don’t close shops just to take the stuff in them, all that much. But I liked what flek said about the inactivity thing.

How about you can only do that to a house, after the person has not logged on to that Char in Say 30 days.

Still don’t like it.

1-2 room homes, the traditional 100,000 credits.

3-4 room homes, 250,000 credits.

Anything larger/’mansion’ style properties, 1,000,000 credits.

Did the deposits from selling the houses get raised also? If I buy a 1,000,000 credit home, and then sell it, I’m not going to only get back 75,000 am I?
