Politician Archive

People obviously feel different on how much control Politicians should have over what...so why not havedifferent forms of government that can be CHOSEN UPON FOUNDING OF THE CITY? Lots of people feel a democracy is the only way to go...others feel that the founder or founders should have control over the city that they have worked so hard to create - whether they worked alone or with all of the citizens I suppose determines whether their desire to have full control is just or not.The best way to handle this would be to try and accomodate everyone....using different forms of goverment. OPTIONS = BETTER If you don't like the form of government of a city, don't join!

Democracy - Much the same as we have now, except with restrictions to prevent griefing. 1) Mayor could not disband city. 2) Easier to elect a new mayor.

Republic -Several chosenrepresentatives(Politicians) that work as a collaboration of "mayors". The biggest benefit of this government is that youwould not necessarily need Master Politician anymore (or rather all four branches). If you have, say,four Senators running the city each could be responsible for a singlebranchof Politician. Infact, an actual position can be offered for each branch: Fiscal, Civic, Martial, and Urban Design. The delegate chosen to fill the Fiscal seat would manage taxes and be responsible for Registering City/Placing Bank/Shuttleport. The delegate chosen to fill the Civic seat would - in addition to being responsible for everything the Civic branch already has - be able to create player-city missions....after all this branch does have "Jobs" and "Job Policies"...it would make sense that this is where you would obtain the ability to create player misions. The delegate chosen to be the Martial, or Warmaster, would be head of security or the city's armed forces. (Though I'm not sure how useful this would be in neutral cities or cities that are not involved in PVP...as /citywarn is now gone). Finally, the delegate chosen to fill the position of Urban Planner would be responsible for decorating the city....this would really be nice as well as some people are very good leaders....but have no sense of style. The delegates or senators can be either voted out by the citizens or by the majority of each other. 3 voting one out, for example.

Dictatorship - This would give the Politician absolute control over the city. Register to run inan election against the Dictator would be impossible, unless the Dictator allowed it. This form of government would be best suited for those who feel that it is their hard work and dedication that makes the city possible and they should not have to worry about it being taken from them simply because someone else wants to take over, or because of guild dramas...etc. Of course, like all of the governments, it would be chosen upon foundation of the city...and any players who do not want to live in a town where a Dictatorship is the form of government would simply not join the town..(whether the leader is benevolent or not --but really...how long would a malevolent dictator's city last?)

Again, the form of government would be chosen upon the founding of the city....and would not change unless the majority of CITIZENS voted for a change. Except in a Dictatorship, where only the Dictator could change the form of government.

This would make it impossible for a tyrant to waltz into democratic or republic city and change the government...and would also ensure that the dictatorship remains that way.

Thanks in advance for your opinions/thoughts.

dude....

somewhere on Dathomir near the village is a house.

this house floats about 1-3M above the ground.

maybe we should wait for the devs to fix the little things like that before we suggest massive demographic changes

Idiot Savant

SOE is NEVER going to fix the little tiniest things like that when there are much bigger issues they have to work with.

Actually I LOVE THE IDEA!

Also if you go into the niddy griddy how about Political Parties example, Republican Democrats and Labor Parties.

And types of Economies Communism,Socialist and Capitalist would be very cool if you could mix and match em to form an economic empire if u wish or slums also if you could have good and bad parts of the town like the slums and HIGH BUILDINGS

I like it, will give a better distinction between cities. And that floating house on Dathomir is the force, not a bug
