I'm planning on making an animated Logo for city rp. This is possible, right?
My knowledge is that you can replace the image with a GIF. image of the animation.

« on: December 20, 2010, 08:04:44 PM »Would it be possible to have dead bodies last forever if the person was killed by another player? Well, really not forever just until a cop came along and investigated the body which would yield them either the killer's name or some information as to who the killer is. That way criminals could kill people and get away with it and not get put on the wanted list unless a cop gathers enough clues to identify the killer.It's a good idea, but Iban's already doing that :3

« on: December 19, 2010, 11:57:47 AM »Mayor Elections? Tax raises? Here's what I think about that:These are all the problems that I've already overlooked. You see, If the mayor or Congress member is doing a bad job, they can get booted out of office in an eviction vote. So I don't really care if the mayor is getting rich, because the people actually have the power to vote him out of office. Elect a corrupt government, I don't care, but eventually people will learn.
Mayor gets rich --> Mayor raises taxes so only he and a few others can pay for it --> Gov. profit, rich to poor --> Poor people get killed for no money to pay taxes.
The mayor does not get paid off of the taxes, in fact, the mayor hardly get's paid at all. The point of the Mayor's position is to allow players temporary political experience, not money. IN FACT, the mayor, or anyone for that manner, cannot access the governmental funds. So your idea of the mayor getting rich off of the people is out of hand in this situation. In fact, if everyone is poor, so is the mayor.
Here's how it works:
Your tax money goes to the government funds
The government funds then distributes payment to players throughout the server
The players then receive paychecks, and can vary because of the economic condition.
So if the economic condition is is poor, your paychecks will be poor too. So if the mayor wants to get money, then everyone else will have to have money too.
NOT ONLY THAT, but the mayor only has the ability to raise taxes either 5$ up or 5$ down.
So in most cases, the government I'm trying to build is much like the government we have today in the United States. But in this world, the government actually has money, and runs properly. Sure there can be frauds and corrupted rulers, but that's what I want. I want exactly that, for the people to rule, and see what certain rules will bring them to.
It's worked like this for thousands of years, and now I'm keen on putting this to simulation.

Although there should be no limit, there also shouldn't be a need for that many add-ons. I'm pretty sure Badspot is just protecting your computer from exploding.

Well, when the people have the power to choose decent representatives to make decisions for them, it's their fault if the representatives do a bad job. If that happens, then it's also their job to eject the political figure from office.
Not only that, but players may finally take role in political situations over the server's government by running for either the Mayor or Congress member, and I think that offers a lot of opportunities in the way CityRp works altogether. In all technicality, this is bringing CityRp into the next level of roleplay.
What I'm going to do with the government is divide it into 3 branches, like in the United States. This is called Checks and Balances.
Executive - Mayor - Enforces laws, can raise taxes, signs in laws
Legislative - Congress Member - Creates laws, can override the mayor's decision
Judicial - Court Member - Interprets laws, can override both of the branches decisions if it goes against basic civil rights.

« on: December 18, 2010, 11:58:55 PM »the admins are dictators for a reasonThe point is to let the server forget itself until only the decent role players are left. Leave it to the people to rule themselves, because I'm to busy with more important things, like actually building.
without them there is the complete and utter potential for the entire server to forget itself entirely because generally they know how it's supposed to run and will strive maintain that level of forgeted-over-ness

What if someone was to say, add Government to the whole system? Would this allow a more player-based system, rather the dictatorship of administration?
Computermix and I are currently working on a government system, which will allow Mayor elections, and the raising and lowering of taxes. It will also have an elected congress, which can create laws and building regulations. What are your thoughts?
