Ideas To Help Bring Out Rp

[Matt Gudgeon]

I have no idea if there are any plugins out there like this but here is my idea:

1.Every player is put into families.
2.Each player family has an individual job e.g. miner farmer servant lumberjack (this will replace villager)or there family name)).
3. Players to work so Lumberjack may need to cut 100 logs farmer may need to harvest 50 wheat miner mine 200 blocks of stone servant cook 20 porkchops.
4. Based on there job performance they get paid certain ammounts. If they don't complete there goal, they are under payed. If they complete but a little bit more, they are given a bonus.
5. Players return to the family home and share money between family. to buy food and water ( that survivalism mod with the hunger a thirst thing might be useful here or something similar)
6. Can be other peopel other than villagers e.g Warlock Guard Adventurer ect.
7. these people roam from the small villages(that should be prebuilt to a scale with a wooden wall around buy admins to prevent villages looking crap and tacky) also to help keep it real enough)
8. These people can be hired by the villages to perform tasks and such.
9. More to Come.

Thank you for Reading, i hope you consider some of these as i really think itwill give the roleplay element some real character

Good ideas, but, as with the other suggestions similar to this, people would not want to be tied to one "job" and there is not enough of an economy set in to rely on other players to get things for you.

Still, nice ideas.

I think that a level of jobs is a very good idea for the server. I like the sound of having a quota of hope many pieces of produce/resource the worker needs to get. A cook would be very good if assigned to a large house and would have to cook a certain number of pork chops/fish etc. or a certain amount of cakes to bake before being dismissed and continuing further on their own for a while.
Obviously people would not want to be tied to one job and enjoy being creative, however, they could specialise in one main job - hence becoming locally famous as the 'person to come to' if you need a certain produce quickly and in large quantity.

I had an idea last night, and I'm going to post it here since it might just add more RP to the world.

I was thinking about the server jails, I know there is one in Port Silver and another jail in Westwood. I havent looked at the Port Silver jail but I think Westwood has the better one to this day. Anyway I was thinking about this:
What if instead of banning people right away from breaking the rules and whatnot, make them Thief / Lawbreaker / Griefer. These are ranks that could be created that would be essentially the same, just a different rank name for other players to see what they did wrong.
With more Prisoners online we could create jobs like "Prison Guard" and "Warden", jobs that could be paid by taxes. It could also be kinda cool to try and break out of Prison from time to time. Prisoners trying to rebel are free to be killed by the guards. We could even construct a prison with hidden doors and stuff that would enable people to break out of it easier once they find these hidden tunnels / doors etc. Maybe even have hidden chests with wooden swords. If they manage to break out of prison, they could ofcourse be killed on sight. Also, perhaps they should only be able to speak in Local chat to disable spam over the global chat. I know you can make restricted channels with HeroChat, not sure how though but could always find out.

Just an alternative to banning, you are sort of banned if ya have the "Theif" rank as it is. You cant really do anything.

People thinking that they got deranked unfairly could apply to re-gain their old rank though the "Ban Appeals" thread just like they do now.

Just an Idea.

@landsliding: I support this idea, a mass prison breakout would be so much fun! The prisoners could also try and hide over the world. They would have to remove build rights though as angry prisoners may become greifers once they escape.

Great ideas guys, keep em coming

 

[HarryHighDef]

I fully suport this idea as i have been banned for something i didn't do and the abbility just to be a theif instead of banned instatly sounds kinda fun

 

[Landsliding]

Yes if this idea is any good in the admins eyes Id gladly set up a few rules for Prisoners and Guards to make it more like a "Fair Game"

Hell I would even build a prison, already thought of it's design. ^_^U
