| Author | It's time for gold mines, don't you think? |
|---|
salary: 180 gp base
some 300-400 workplaces throughout the empire.
one could always enroll in this mine as long as there are free workplaces. instead of draining every facility out of gold, this would (if balanced) solve the economy "problem". instead of admins filling mines with gold every now and then, we would have a "working" economy.
advantages (again, if carefully balanced):
1) less resources (other than gold) would be produced. everyone knows that after a while we have a bunch of resources that just lay there in mines until admins just "buy" them, and in the meantime, in order to enroll, one needs to buy resources or arts himself.
2) less resources -> less machinery -> less arts produced. there wouldn't be so many arts stocked up like usually.
3) economy would go from lack of resources to abundance of resources by itself. no need for administration "interventions" such as this last one.
4) it would explain where the gold comes from, because, at this point, i really have no clue :D
one more thing. if an LG=0 player gets 180 gp, this means that he dug up more than that amount. gold mines don't just lay there for people to take the gold out of them. they belong to empress, and i guess that she would be kind enough to let us keep the some part (180 base), while she would take the rest, and i really don't care where will it end up. she could give it to charity, use it to build another castle, or make court parties every evening.. entirely up to her.
maybe i am missing on something and this simple request won't be implemented for a good reason i am still not aware of, but even if that isn't the case, i am definitely wasting time here, because good ol' administration never ever implemented anything written in this section.
anyway, thanks for your time :D | because good ol' administration never ever implemented anything written in this section.
Thats not really truth you know.. | lol. just for the record, i'm exceptionally curious what exactly is this mysterious suggestion they took into account from *this* IaS forum?
note: we're not talking about an implementation from the russian IaS, subsequently copied here as an update. from this forum. | | i like the idea, but i think that it should be a type of default enrollment area. there would be one in every spot on the map, each with 250 worker posts, and it would yield 150 gold for enrolling, so it wouldnt be the FIRST choice to enroll at, but at least there would be a place for backup. | just for the record
I believe 4. and 8. from the upcoming features "from players" were implemented and it was suggested by players.. | | +1 to what Post 3 says | first of all i'm sorry for not leaving a comment about Korzika's suggestion. it's because i'm not very sure about the pros and cons, and unprepared comments is not something that i like.

thank you for your effort to answer my question but it was kind of rhetorical because i already know the answer. just wanted to make sure if i'm not missing something.
the only true thing in your answer is that these suggestions were indeed proposed by players. now 4) Create a game client and introduce soundtracks. - there was something like a "game client" but it was created by players and therefore unofficial, as well as pretty buggy and therefore useless. anyway, i can't make out why are you mentioning it, considering that i personally tried it an year before this server to be born, so obviously it wasn't suggested in this forum :}
btw, it never had soundtracks. we don't have soundtracks either, but sound fxs and these suggestions appeared regularly on both .ru and .com forums (probably from their holy creation) just like "add more troops" suggestion.
if there is another game client with soundtracks, i must say i'm sorry, i'm aware only of this one :/
8) Filtering combats - again, existed in .ru couple of months before it's implementation here. and i really doubt they took it from our IaS forum. | 8) Filtering combats - again, existed in .ru couple of months before it's implementation here. and i really doubt they took it from our IaS forum.
Doesnt really matter on which forum it was suggested, right? | | actually it does. this was the main point, that nobody reads *this* IaS forum and good ol' administration never ever implemented anything written in this section. which is exactly the place where Korzika's and many others' suggestions are being posted. | each with 250 worker posts, and it would yield 150 gold for enrolling
yeah, it would be a good thing too, but imo, it wouldn't solve the problem of unsustainable economy we have here for too long. if the gold mine would be the last choice, at one point our current mines would be drained just as they were one week ago.

in fact it does matter. when i said that good ol' administration never ever implemented anything written in this section, i wasn't talking about russian server. if i'd written this on .ru forum, this comment wouldn't even exist.
btw, from what i can see, it (the comment) is far more interesting than gold mine topic itself. it is a big problem that they never communicate with us, but there are already several (or more) topics about that issue. maybe i should've kept my mouth shut.. |
