When plots are sold

[Eric Chu]

Feels bad for Brendan...
I think I kinda know who that kid is...
I stand for yes because I don't any reasons of not doing it o.o

Good Luck

I say no. Why? Because you should save up some money to pay for it, even if you don't have much money you can easily get in game for a minute and vote to pay for it. I don't see why is that a big problem for you people? If you are not active then just don't buy the plot, you can build in other non plot areas it's not like you can only build on plots.

How exactly were you able to build in the plot if you didn't own it?

There are commands to share a plot with other players now. I think it's /land share.

[RunnerNS]

I understand that but wouldnt it go away if the plot was no longer owned?

Nope, all the content in the plot is left there for the next owner.

No. I don't think this should be implemented, as it'd be difficult to place in the game (as panther said earlier), and it would allow many players to abuse it. However in your case, this person was clearly attempting to spite you, and (clearly) succeeded. This would be harassing and against the rules. The correct way to go about this would be to simply make a support thread and the person who did this. A moderator would then come and correct what had happened.

( I know that this isn't really with the topic here ) The command to add people is /land add.

Lol I am not being specific enough I guess. You said you were building it at the time and that you were going to decorate it. Then he stole it out from under you while you weren't at the plot (from what I gather). You seem to think he was waiting for the very second the ownership was lost and snatched out from under you. As far as I can see the plot was not owned because payments weren't made. He wanted a plot of his own and from the few that were available he wanted that one. So he purchased it. You return to see all your work gone and someone else owns the plot.

The story should end there, but instead you make a thread that both insults and villainizes this player for buying a plot he had full rights to purchase.

Lets forget that for a second and look at your suggestion of late rent and extra fees. You are asking for an extension on the due date of rent in case someone forgots to fill their account with enough fading soul shards. The first problem with this is that when people don't have enough money to buy something, can they still buy it? No, they need to have enough money for it. This is technically a subscription to a plot of land and when the payment of that money does not happen, the subscription goes away. That is it. Some people brought up how it should be like paying rent on a real plot of land or an apartment, where a buyer has a grace period if they don't have enough money. There are two differences here however. The first being that those are REAL LIFE apartments that people NEED to live in. This is terraria, not real life. Second they pay money monthly for those while terrarians pay daily. Grace periods of few days after a month of waiting isn't huge, but a few days waiting after a day is literally that. The player now owes 2+ payments (plus a tax?) and you can't even get that by voting for the server once. Third these lands are highly sought after and often times there is none available. Iif you can't pay and someone else can, then @Panther wants the person who can pay. Last but not least this is asking @Panther to do extra work for one specific case that really isn't that important to the server.

I understand you are upset about losing your build, but we aren't going to make a special exception just for you.

[HallowedNick]

Flounder has just explained enough for you too see the point. The plots will stay as they are, as Panther already said no. I am sorry for your plot but as Flounder said it's the same rule for everyone, we're not going to make a special exception for anyone. Next time just make sure you have enough money to pay for it before building something on it. Since further discussion in really not necessary this thread is Locked.
