Thread: Master Politician No More
I agree with the first two posts here. I'll be Master in two weeks. I just don't understand why the devs think we have an incentive to Master Politician? It's not that there is something that isn't good to it, there is NOTHING offered from it. They should really think about making it cost like 1/2 or 1/4 the skill points to do politiican, that is the fair thing to do. Most politician skills are one shot anyway. And it's not like there are going to be thousands of politiicans; why not let those who do have it be able to advance in other professions as well? I am VERY frustrated by the total lack of usefullness gained from the skill point useagae and the TOTAL disregard from the Devs for this. Player cities is a great concept to introduce into this game, but it is so half baked. We ALL want /citywarn back and nothing. We ALL want player garages, and NOTHING. We want more decorations, such as roads; and we get NOTHING.
I enjoy being Mayor, it is a good RP instrament. I think my citizens believe I'm doing a decent job. We're primarily a guild city, and I've began to ask if someone else wants to do that job. I wish we'd get something from the devs.
Strohm
LOL Akasha.. god.. I feel your pain.
d00d: "Are you in the city?"
me: "No."
d00d: "oh. Well, when are you coming back?"
me: "I don't know."
d00d: "What are you doing?"
me: "I'm hunting."
d00d: "oh. Can you come back real quick? It will only take a minute."
me: "I'm on Dath..."
d00d: "I'll pay for your shuttle ticket ok? Hurry though."
me: "What do you need?"
d00d: "I need a trainer."
me: "What skill do you need, I'll see if someone in the guild can train you."
d00d: "No, I need Novice Brawler."
me: "There is a brawler trainer in Bestine."
d00d: "Bestine is too far away though."
me: "..."
d00d: "Hello??"
me: "Just take the shuttle to Bestine."
d00d: "But it's a 5 minute wait time."
me: "..."
d00d: "Hello??"
Edit: oh and btw, Akasha, we're neighbors now lol

Ahhh, the wonders of Politician. I know what there was when I volunteered to be the Mayor of our city. I had fun to start with. Altho I was only 8 hrs a day and never did anything for myself. I purchased a second account hoping I would have fun with that one, but I could never do anything because all the /tells I received on my Mayor I started to receive on my alt and having to logout and relog to add a trainer or do a /grantzoningrights was ridiculous.
I had to kick half the people out of the militia after the /citywarn was removed because half the people were abusing it and placing about 20 buildings in the city, then moving stuff out of the city because they didn't like paying taxes. The city was a mess and I would have loved to clean it up, but no way you can get 100+ people organized to move their house 2 zoning blocks.
