Game Development: Rooting thy Native Oak

Because inactive players are not the only problem. There are also active players who left claims around the world. Now those claims will decay as well, even though the player remains active.

Then have another DECAY Event Trigger when "Owner" hasnt been on (X) Claim for (Y) Days .....

Then people just log in an alt every Y days.

Honestly, if you're playing actively the silver upkeep isnt going to be a problem.

So you are talking about a TOTALY Different issue here ..

What is the issue your reffering to? Are Players actively going around and setting up multiple claims all over the place to grief / cause issues?

Some do that to grief, yes. Some others (like me) simply didn't declaim their old place. Also, people put claims on all the mines they build, even if they don't use them later.

This, there was just no point to do it. There still isn't, but it's timed before it is useless. Now people are probablly running around declaiming for this weeks 75% refund.

I know I already did, quite a nice chunk of change to hide on an alt

It is even better to leave it in the account bank until needed so it is available to any character you create later on.

There may be no specific reason to implement this feature now; however, it is a mechanism that must be in place over the long haul and it is very appropriate to implement it while we are still in closed beta.

Ya, didn't even think about that 0_0. Just wanted to touch all that shiny silver.

Personal Claim Upkeep fee is a gamebreaker for me ... who wants my stuff?

So no one took me up on that stuff offer.. so I gave it away to the random people in Jamestown...

If there ever happens to be a change in the Personal Claim Tax, someone please send me a PM .. I may return to Salem ... other then that its been a interesting 2 weeks or so on this beta.

Hmmm, now that purity mines are going to start declaiming around the world, I think it's time for the mining system to get revamped.
