Minecraft real economy
xSaintias

Welcome to xSaintias's Economy Minecraft Server
First off, Welcome! The point of this topic is too get people to partake in an experiment where we will simulate a real economy. New players will start of with nothing, and they get added to the town and given a free plot. Now they start mining, collecting resources, etc. to make money of their own. Now, an admin might use /i or /give or whatever. What is essentially going to happen is the mayor will take money out of the town bank and buy stuff off the VirtualShop whenever he wants to build something or for community projects. The is the equivalent of a government building bridges and infrastructure to boost the economy.
Now players have money and they can bull/sell with each other. They pay taxes (amount TBA) that go to the mayor so he can continue with government projects. So now you can see the flow of money back and forth. No money is lost or spawned.

alright :D. It sounded like a cool idea in my head. Nice to know someone else thinks so….

Nice. It would be cool if you added banks! And if you're to lazy to build a house, you can rent the money from the bank to buy one. Like a mortgage. And it would be even more awesome if you can sell as being a bank an insurance about that mortgage to spread the risk and creating more money.

Yeah i was thinking about all that stuff too, but the thing about the mortgage and stuff is that ill have to create a program that sets a certain interest rate, certain amount of payments over time, yada yada yada. I might actually consider making it that extensive if it turns out really cool and fun. But first i just need the beginning stages such as stage 1: finding people who want to participate :P

Nice to see some people interested. Before I start though i need to know who would like to be the mayor and who would like to be a resident. Mayor would have to take on some big responsibility and collect taxes and use them wisely to keep the economy stimulated. I could be mayor, but i was actually planning on continuing with my house and watching the progress from the outside (not the in). Anyone can be mayor just respond to me. Once mayor has been chosen i will start the server and any of the people who replied that they will do it can help choose the new area for the town.

UPDATED:
We have akwardsaw volunteer to be mayor.
Troll will be a miner (unless he specifies otherwise)
We still need:
Woodcutter
Glass maker
Armor maker
those to start out, but as more people join there will be more jobs.

Thanks for the dedication, but the problem here would be that you would be paying yourself for items.
Example: Mayor(awkwardsaw), "im going to build a public library!"
Woodcutter(also awkwardsaw), " alright ill sell you wood"
Mayor, "alright here is the cities money… or is it my (the woodcutters money) oh crap how much did the city have and how much did the woodcutter have? oh well who cares, either way im rich! shopping spree!"
all hypothetical of course but i think you get the point ;P

that would work, the only thing is that the once or twice a week you would have to make sure you chop a lot of wood and sell to everyone thatt needs wood for w/e purpose. If you can then i'll put you down.

I think it would also be cool to run a timberland business. I'll plant giant groves of trees in fenced areas very close to one another, and I'll maintain it for the town (cut/replant) in return for some of the tax money :)

yeah. Everyone that signs up now gets seniority in there business. Here's how i see it. You choose the base pay for anyone who joins your business later and they along with you (sorry you will still have to work too :P) will woodcut, mine, or w/e but at the end of the day all the workers give you there stuff to go sell and they walk home with what ever they are getting payed hourly.

Since I'll be mayor i could sell certain land to people, which means no one else can fuck with their stuff within a certain chunk except for them(and myself :p)
In the mod, the town size is two chunks per person. So what seems logical is to have one chunk "donated" to the town, the other for personal use such as a business or whatever

So, you are making a server, and you are asking people to join your town? Can we gather our own group and create our own town?

thats what anti griefing mods are for :P they will only be able to edit blocks while they are a resident of the town, and if they become one and do something stupid they can just be kicked right out.

Well actually we were just going to have one big town with a single economy, but if you can find a whole bunch of people that want to create a town then i see no reason why you cant. I'll give each town 500,000 then and you need to make sure you trade with each other so build a road and then like an outpost in the middle to trade and what not.

yeah ill check that out and update the original post to look cleaner, show what plugins i have, what version im running, etc. Wouldn't be good if everything broke on the first day. Also I'm using himachi for the server (other types cost money) so if anyone is not acquainted with it download it and play around with it)

The game costs $15, why not just buy it and support the maker if you like the game? Botters should have enough RSGP to sell to get the $15 easily.

I also run the backend of a server(and have basically since the hmod days) so any issues I could probably help.

Looks like the new update coming soon will be split into 1.8 and 1.9. Its a doozy of an update too. I put up a poll that I would like everyone to vote on. I am still unsure about when the update is coming, so we can just go ahead and put the server up now if we want. The update wont cause any data to be lost so we will still have everything when the update goes out, It will just require a lot of time for me to fix all the plugins/figure out which ones dont work. Please vote and voice your opinion :)

I need 500,000 TNT for umm urrr ummm a big underground open area joking, just trolling
E: Just saw your post about the rules.
For minning i think an out line to be changed later could be,
We will have a large under ground minning hub TNT any one?
We will strip mine or what ever your style is off that we will also make a slime farm. So rules
I cant remember if your allowing tnt but TNT is to only be used below level 40?
Level 10/20 levels below houses and citys in case they want a basement.
Did i read they give me all the ores and i pay them? or do they keep them? If so no stealing from the work chest and leave a sign saying what you added and ill pay when i get on or borrow the money from some one and i pay them. Although i only just joined the server:p

Hey guys sorry i was trying to sleep :P. Yes you need to be in the town and you can only mess with stuff in the town plot. But the town plot increases as more people join so it will get really big. If there still isn't enough room i will disable towny and let everyone gather resources; however, if i see it being abused it will be turned back on :). You will need to pm awkwardsaw id you want to be added to the town. As we are just starting out it is a slow process but hopefully everyone will be added to the town soon and then you can just log on whenever and chop/mine/sell/w.e.

Can't you just disable destroying objects outside the town? And how could we abuse it? Just a general rule not to build anything "big" outside town.

there should be a way to mine outside of the town if thats what every one is saying. IMO it is stupid if we can only mine under the town but thats my two cent
E: ive been on towny servers atleast i think it was that plugin and diffrent ranks could do diffrent things, so if you make a miner they can use blocks out side of town and in because we really need VERY VERY VERY large areas to strip mine and i have a under ground (under city) hub idea which should be cool

Message from the awesome head builder:
Building a town from scratch is hard hard work, and thus it takes some time to finish. Since people are lazy and I have had to gather most of the resources used today myself, I have not yet made any plots ready to be built on.
In my mind I have a somewhat complete thought on how I should make the town, so in order to make that thought reality I require you all to not build on the side of the hill marked by signs. The other side of the clearly marked border on the hill will be removed, leaving a big flat area where there will be room for plots.
Because of a test on thursday I need to study hard tomorrow and will not be able to continue on the work, leaving you unable to build your pretty homes until friday thursday.
If you feel bored tomorrow you are very welcome to assist in digging away that big block of dirt and rock. You should however not build there yet because I have a specific road system in mind which I will use to surround each plot. Also I require wood (both logs and planks) to complete the town house and build other structures, so gathering wood tomorrow may reward you well in riches. :)
Respecting this will make our town very very beautiful!
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
- Your epic head builder Emaziz ;)

why are people already trying to claim land? we can expand the town by almost 6 times. Also, the only way people can claim it is if i sell a specific chunk for a price
ps: I want a castle out at sea, maybe around 6-8 chunks in size ;)

I claimed and just built a house because emanizaz had said the lot was available. QUESTION: Can I retire as head hunter? I would prefer to do other stuff (like mine and woodcut and st00f)
ALSO, I built some landmarks in the wilderness, on the first hill just out of the city I built a squarish tower, further out I built towers that point towards the nearest landmark (so you can follow them home). They are shaped like this:
N
NN
NNN
NNNN
with this<– being the direction towards town.

Due to overwhelming demand i now bring you locked chests and doors! so anyone who makes a house can lock their chest and/or door
How to use it:
1.) Create a chest
2.) Punch it
Now you are the owner and the chest is locked!
3.) Punch it again
Now the chest is unlocked!
To Lock a Door:
1.) Target the door and type "/lock"
The item in your hand is set as the key
Users can't open that door unless they have that type of item in their hand
2.) Target the door and type "/lock" while holding nothing
You are set as the owner and the door cannot be locked

hey guys i dont know how to delete that poll so yeah im kinda stuck with that till the 13th… anyways i was thinking about installing the vehicle mod on this server because the boatmod is so buggy. It would require some effort on you part if i did it (because it requires client side mods as well).
Here is the link. this can help acces farther away materials and what not as long as we build roads :D

ohhhk…well does the mayor object? otherwise I can tear it down. Also I was thinking maybe we could make some type of suspended paths between the houses, that would be kinda cool eh? I have my roof at 4 blocks high, maybe we should do 5 blocks high and have a 2 wide, wait make that 3 wide path since the lot sizes are odd numbers. Anyways just an idea.
Also, why are we supposed to pay to access the tree grove…

Hey I'm on a school computer so that might be the reason it doesn't work, but when I download the minecraftsp.jar it won't update or do anything past the initial screen when you press "enter game". Any thoughts?

We are changing ISP because of DDoS attacks, the connection was downgraded to 10/10MBit. Everything should be ok in 03.10.

Yeah I also am wondering about that O.o
who would be DDos attacking you. Although there probably are a lot of people in this community that can do it…

That particular server was not under attack, rather some public CS: Source servers that the customers had.
