Vendor Map

[Aaronock]

Okay here is how you guys MAY get something like this.
Propose idea to GM team via T&D.

Get approval for said project.

Make a map for vending. Yeah if you want it THAT badly, don't make the GM team pay some other doofus a ton of money to get a map for our server. Remember, donation money to the server goes to advertising and upkeep of the server, if Pandora has extra she could pay someone else, but this isn't something that she is trying to make happen, you are!

Pass map info to appropriate people for it to be added. GM's will approve how it looks or not and you go edit as necessary. Also it may be good to add where you would like the npc's necessary for the map to be added. This would be stuff such as the warper, banker, and probably a kafra.

Then we test the map, we walk that joker back and forth and make sure we can't get stuck anywhere or that we get errors. Hell we probably may even have errors when trying to enter the map that would need fixing. Once that is done though...

Pandora will add it to the real server. Announcement is made about the new feature.

But yah, on the flip side, do you guys really want more rules on the server? I imagine that vending here would be the only choice, and there are things to consider such as this when making such a map:

1. Is it large enough to support everyone on the server NOW?
2. More organized with lanes like suggested to prevent clutter?
3. Can it support population growth over time?

So that's my thoughts on why I really wouldn't prefer a vendor map. I kind of like the choice of being able to vend wherever I want nearly (as long as I do not break the standing too close to npc rule). People should spread out a bit more. Guilds who vend in their guild town are pretty smart I think. Its a good way to show your guild has activity, and gets people visiting your town more. You never know, you could wind up even with a new member to your team at the end of it, or a new friend too.
