Greetings,

About 4 months ago, my wife and I bought SWG being that we were long time MMO players. This game offers so much, it is easy to get overwhelmed.

Needless to say, we decided to start a city. My wife being an Architect made it a little easier to do so than most, but our path has been bumpy. First we settled on CNet, but then after reading here that planets get capped on shuttleports, we moved to Dant. Due to local problems with another town nearby, we moved a third time. Still on Dant, but further from that town that gave us trouble.

Now, of all the professions I have played, Mayor is by far the hardest and the least rewarding. Trying to get your city 'just right' is near impossible. With conplaints from citizens, playing local diplomat with other local towns, the constant drain on my credits and of course...the wait for exp.

We stand now at 39 citizens, all members of our guild named Tempest save one. Pushing hard for that shuttleport wiithout '/shout City needs new people, free house and swoop' stuff. Though we attract merchants mostly, we are lacking in fighters.

I have a couple questions for other Mayors and also a suggestion to Dev's.

We have discussed allowing another guild within our borders, yet don't want to be ousted because we worked so hard. Seems alot of posts refer to others taking over and whatnot. How often does this really happen? Currently, I am the only one who plants houses, then /transferstructure. This removes any problems of that. However, it may appear I'm a control freak, I'm not. I sat down one night and drew out our town. (I actually have a map and future progress.)

Thought my town tends to lean Rebel/Nuet, we do have a couple Imp citizens. We believe more in the people behind the keyboard than factions.

How would I go about finding those guilds looking for a town? Something becides the "/shout blah blah blah." deal please.

Suggestion to Dev's: To remove vengeful Mayors, once someone enters into a race against current Mayor, please BLOCK the ability to remove City Hall. This would, thereby, keep the town safe until after the election concludes. (That seems to be a big one after reading posts.)

Any suggestions current Mayors have, would be appreciated, and if you are on Radiant server, I welcome you to come to Dant, Crystal Cove and see what we have built.
