Politician Archive

I mean, gimme a break you all. Fix it and give it back to us.

Defend it from what?

Defend it from what?? what are you thinking? Defend it from idiots that we dont want in our cities.As a soon to be mayor (hopefully) I want to be able to kick idiots, and people I dont like,out of my city

People can't build anything in your city if you enamble zoning rights.

What else are you worried about?

If you're Overt and want defense, set up some turrets or a few bases. Otherwise, if somebody is just harassing you, file a CSR ticket - they work, believe me.

I dont even have my city yet.But i would like to be able to have control over whos can be in my city and who can't

Please don't flame I am new to this politician profession and don't really understand the working of running a city in SWG yet

What am I thinking? I'm thinking your city is going to fail by the looks of how you think a city should be run.

Good luck!

Like I said my fellow guildleader (we are a council of 4) decided he didn't want to do the politician thing so we swapped jobs.Knowing nothing about the cities and the day to day operations I hope to run a effecient city.I guess I was just worried about people coming into my city (once i get it) and causing trouble Well any advice about the politician and running a city in general would be greatly appreciated

running the city is more geared towards what you are looking for as far as content, my citizens and i are all pretty much good friends since i have been in teh game and gotten to know many of them over a long period of time. They know what i am about as a roleplayer and what i envisioned as a city from before our relocation from naboo to dantooine.

We are growing and always have a fun time together, we have had a few hiccups with some griefing citizens that ended u leaving after they felt they had sufficiently caused enough trouble but that is not as important as it is important that people understand what your vision is for your city and what they invision and hope to gain as well from it.

In regards to that decide waht will work best for you.

Talk with your citizens let them get to know you and come up with a plan an outline and goals for where you want to be.

Then move forward.

If you still need help i'll be glad to offer what information i can to try and help you.

If you total control, you can do it with just 10 people and lock down the land from the start and never expand.

It's in your best interest to have as many citizen's as possible if you want to expand. That means having people you might not even know in your city if you want it to grow.

That's the whole point of Politician. Talk to your citizens, work with them. It's hard. But no city will survive long with an inactive or xenophobic mayor.

You'll find this out the hardway if you think you have total control of who can live in your city or not.

/citywarn does nothing to keep someone who REALLY want's to live in your city from doing just that. It's overrated and many cities, mine included, haven't used it since day one to excert control in the city.

There's plenty of other ways to handle things. So post your problems, and we'll help you with solutions.

Ok thanks guys. My city is based off of my guildso i will have some citizens.

Is there still a city millitia since the patch?or did they get rid of that too?

They still exist and they have a use that's more usefull than /citywarn. They can control who can live in your area of influence by granting zoning rights while the mayor is away and zoning is turned on.

Nice. Thats good to hear
