To buy a new base, and keep the old?
« on: December 23, 2009, 04:52:05 am »

is it considered hogging or hoarding to buy one base, have it for say a month.Then buy a new one and still keep the old one? Personally i never thought so seeing as the more storing space the better.But lately i have come across a few people who think otherwise. :o

As long as you don't die in a base where you resign your admission, you can still access it. Thus i suppose it's legit and allowed to do so.

It shouldn't even be possible to hog bases, because they shouldn't go off a preset list of names.
Why is it they do? I've heard it's to prevent offensive names or shitty names, but characters bypass that and are free.

Think of it this way; It's one thing to have a character named "Rapist" and another thing to have a whole gang named "The Rapists" plastered over the Town Control sections in the statistics, don't even get me started on the swears and racist words they could do with this. Not to mention if one gang used the name 'Flames' and another gang used the name 'The Flames'. Or even worse would be one gang using 'Orion's Belt' and another using '0rion's Belt'. Some names would be too similar (to impersonate other gangs) and some would come out all unnecessarily rude.

True. Still it would be good idea to make a topic with names suggestion and up to date list and upgrade it as often as possible. Its a real deal to find ANY working name already - and its not long after last wipe.

There was one on old forum here.
Anyone want to make a new one here or should I go ahead and do it?

EDIT: Done it.

Time for me I guess.

So basically make possible to add new gang names but they need to be accepted by GMs in-game. So if name is insulting or wrong or w/e then GM can rename gang to something like: "Placeholder1" and gang got limited time to get some normal name for it. If they belive that GM decision wasn't fair then they can go on forums and complain about that.

I am really tired of stupid names that are arleady in list and I don't want suggest some name that I would like to have for my gang just to see that it was taken by someone else.

For some reason I belive it will end with: "GM's can't be botherd with that!"

good point,though from past experience i now think it may be better to give up the old base because when me and some friends went to get a base we spent the better part of an hour just trying to find a name.(Oh man)haha

This is one of the oldest suggestions which ever been posted on this forum. :D
But I was just curious if this might be possible? I wouldnt feel bothered if I see some popup message like "Player XY just requested a gangname called "The Reno Guardians" or some such. In that case, I would just press "yes" or so. If the message "Player XY just requested a gangname called "We all will rape your family and kill your dog" I would just press "no" or some sort. Would that be possible maybe? It could be hell lot of easier then creating lists of possible gang names...

Even if it is possible, what would happen if there wasn't a GM online?  No base/gang for that player until one gets online?

"We all will rape your family and kill your dog"
How about "We'll make your family and your dog rest in peace" - is that okay?

Anyway, disable player names and make a list. What if someone names himself "Spaghetti fighter"? That's not very wastelandish right? If you want to disable players' ability to make their own names for gangs then following this logic you also have to make a list for players' names.

And why Spaghetti Fighter is not wastelandish? The world is in ruins, there is not much of humanity left and people would care bout names after saints, or names that are not faux pas? Wastelands are wastelands, people can call themselves Will "Cactus-In-The-Rectum" Smith or Katie "Toxic-Vaginal-Fume" Pimperwinkle if they like. Not that we have goverment issued ID's or anything.
