Some ideas I think would improve the server, but then again thats just me:
A More Prestigious AreaOne of my least favorite aspects of RP servers on BL is that fact that, to be honest,
almost none of the server population is good at building. As a result you end up with hideous houses and you can only be so strict with deleting ugly houses before you end up with like three buildings in the whole server. I think there should be an area where only people who are verified decent builders can build. Id expand this idea with...
Stricter ZoningIt bothers me when I walk out of a two story suburban mansion and across the street is a six story office building next to a one story purple movie rental shop. There should be stricter zoning - Buildings in the city should have to be a certain height and I think it'd be neat to even enforce certain themes - That way areas start to look more like neighborhoods and less like conglomerated poop towns. Commercial/Residential/Industrial zoning would also be nice and would help better define neighborhoods. Its really weird to have houses mixed in with research shops. Of course this takes
a lot of enforcing which is why I think it would also need....
Better AdminsIve been on there one day and theres already admins who just drive around in cars the whole time ignoring chat, and Ive heard of admins abusing their power and not getting disciplined. The admins should be more thoroughly examined and should be disciplined for breaking rules just like the rest of the server is. I mean yes, admins should have some special priviliges (F8ing etc) but
they should not be able to freekill and get away with it. The divide between the admins and the rest of the populace only weakens the sense of...
CommunityThere should be events and crap. Nothing too special but like, "Hey theres a party at [place]!" or maybe even fake holidays or contests or crap. Something to bring the server together and actually give them something to do
other than roleplay getting a dirty lewinsky in the bathroom of a gas station. The reason I dont think we see a lot of this is probably the same reason I dont ever do any events, its because
there is no point when its 100% guranteed that someone will come shoot it up the second after its announced. This is why we also need...
Stricter Jail Times for MurderThere should be a legit (And increasing per kill) penalty for killing people. I dont think you should get banned for killing someone, but if youve killed six people
maybeeee you should get like a half hour in jail. This might help defer people from gunning people down because theres nothing else to do, and will make it easier to throw community events because you wont have to worry about it being shot up. The whole island shouldnt be the equivalent of a BL Detroit. This last one will probably be the most controversial but I also think there should be an...
Enforced New Life RuleYou should get killed just to spawn and then immediately go gun down your killer. There should be an enforced new life rule like there is on most roleplays, where if you die you have to either:
- Have actually died (make a new name etc) or
- You retain your identity but you cant go shoot down your murderer (My preferred choice as its less annoying to the player)
Idk how you people feel about any of this and idk how Kreon feels but these are just ideas theyre not like demands or anything. It just sucks to see topics like this were people are almost unanimously agreeing that the server has serious issues.
