Lots cost vote points
« on: January 25, 2013, 05:00:33 PM »
Just as the title says, maybe if we even made lots cost 1 vote point each, it would add yet another incentive to vote. ^.^

Thoughts?

Are you suggesting bypassing users lot limit with vote points? If yes, then no.

If you are suggesting that as a cost to get a lot.. Hmm.. I'm not sure about forcing players to vote that have already donated for these features.. As well as this, how would you handle lot movement  and expansions? People would try to evade this as much as possible.. Not to mention that shops already cost 5 vote points each, and that you can exchange them for items, don't we have plenty of uses?

I'm here to help.. With the following exception:



@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.LOW)
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
    Player player = event.getPlayer();
    if (player.getName().equals("SGT_ADZ") {
        player.kickPlayer("Yeah... Nah!");
        return;
    }
}

No, I do not mean bypassing the lot limit, I just mean that they would have to pay 1 vote point to get a new lot. I don't feel this would impact the donators as much, what I thought of with this idea is getting more of the Users and Guests to vote.

Basically pay for lots withing your rank restrictions? Sounds good.

Somethings to consider:
How would one pay for a lot? Since we don't have the ability to transfer vP's.
Would the amount of vote points be dependent on the lot size?

Could be based on size. But I was actually thinking of a flat rate instead.

2 things we could do are

1. Code a way to transfer VP's
Or
2. Use VP's to but a specific item, then use that to give to staff to purchase a lot.

Sorry, I do not like interfering with an essential part of Innectis by requiring vote points in order to get new lots.

Possibly implement this feature with the add lot command? Not sure on that.

We shouldn't implement it into the addlot command, and I won't make vote points transferable.
