Kyro and Sound were thinking 10k.
I was originally thinking lower, but if 10k is the consensus, then 10k it is.
MPs are free to suggest a price.

10k sounds too much. Maybe 3k.

3k sounds much more reasonable not everyone has 10k they can pull from their ass.

can get 3k in one mining run and it requires 5 people to make a village. Will this act make it so that I can just protect what I want for the fee?

Takes 2 people to make a town, and no, we're still only going to protect towns (and offshoots of towns, like nether farms).

I like this idea because I hate abandoned places, but it's a bit expensive.

I'd certainly like less road blocks when my plan activates.....

Id rather have it 3k cause cheaper and more reasonable price. its hard in the beginning to get money cause we start off with 200$ lol maybe make it more expensive for a second village like 3k then 6k then 12k somethin like that

the thing is xane is we want to strongly encourage ppl to join a village when they start. At least i think that is the plan. If this makes it so a person has to join a village for the first few days of play that is a good thing.

Actually.... If we want ppl to join a village maybe we should have it be a requirement before they make their own?

Shouldn't be a requirement to join a village at first lol it's common sense to stay at someone's village and get supplies THEN build his/her own village.

I didn't do that hunt. I literally joined, read the rules in game (after on the forum), and then asked to make sure wut i wanted to do was ok. Then i just ran off in a random direction, from wut i didn't know was the market at the time, until i thought i was far enough away (which really isn't very far i find out lol and started to gather resources for my project. Granted this is the first server i have really ever played on so it might be different or because i tend to play alone until i feel comfortable with others but i didn't join another village at the start.

I don't know... i just thought it might be nice to make it a req so that village pops go up a lil /shrug.

The fee is probably going to be something small like 5k. 5k is nothing on this server, especially if someone walks out and mines, or joins a village and mines.
