Gregarious Grange Towers - Community Hangout

I would like to propose a new Community Hangout - Gregarious Towers.
From this thread - Thanks Sweetum

This hangout would include a garbage dump, market and a center for Glitchen to chat and meet other glitches.

Feel free to use this as a "farmer's market" area too! I plan on doing so once I collect enough materials to have a nice stock

I'm no staff member, so I can't and won't enforce or try to enforce any rules. I just ask that everyone has fun! 

Thanks to Oceania and Sweetum for the great ideas. I hope to see this with other streets and buildings.

**For anyone that asks "why did he make this thread when there is this one" I made it because that one was a idea centered with ideas not onl for Gregarious Grange but other streets as well.

  • First floor...Animal room? (If we can still put animals in the building)

  • Ohh great. I like those, and I think we can still put animals in there.

  • Let me understand this...are the thousands and thousands of piggies/chickens/butterflies throughout Ur not enough for us already, that you have to put critters *inside* a building? What would be the purpose of that?

  • This is a really cool idea! Kudos :)

  • Yes its a good idea but to get people to go to one place in Ur is difficult.   Where people choose to hang out evolves from the game.   When the game gets bigger folks will come along and suggest other places and then it all falls apart and there is no central place anymore.

    Maybe you could make a suggestion in the ideas forum to have the tool vendor set up there?  A third tool vendor?   Some reason to hang out at the Towers instead of at Cebarkul?

  • Well Maruchan, as a community hangout it would be nice that everyone could do a number of things in one place and interact with others at the same time. Did you ever visit the apartments before R3, or the Missing Floor or Forgotten Floor, etc? There were always animals there when I visited.

  • That's true, Treesa. One of the main reasons I really like this is because it has four floors, therefore allowing players to interact all over the place without a lot of lag. If you were to put a lot of things in Cebarkul it would start lagging. It already lags some with the amount of people there.

  • Also, since the towers are a public place, the suggestions about how to use the different floors, while interesting, is bound to be met with controversy if people neglect to do what they are "supposed" to be doing on different floors.  Its kind of hard to get people to play in certain ways in the different public locations (as we have seen from Ajaya Bliss and the wickdoon wood tree controversies).

  • Yeah. Those are just suggestions. I really don't want any controversy like in AB and Wickdoon like you stated.

  • If you want to try it and don't want to appear bossy, you might call the experiment a "group halls beta" experiment ;)

  • I don't know if it's true with Gregarious Grange, but one of the other apartment towers (I believe Sabudana Drama) has garden plots.

  • It's become more of an HQ for Civility now :P

  • I remember my shock when some group was trying to use the Missing (whatever) for public gift-sharing with new folk, watching a lvl 40 walk in and hoover up every gift item off the floor. Similar greedy grabbing and or "protests" against gift parties in model homes also discouraged the people creating them.

    My advice would be to plan public events that don't involve putting down items that one glitch can grab wholesale.

  • The missing room? Sandbox?
    Posted 7 months ago by ❅Cobalt❅ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I can understand the uncertainty of have a "set thing" placed for any or all the floors of the Towers, because in the end you just don't know what's going to happen to it. Someone could come in and completely wipe out the entire stock of what's there. 

    Public events/get-togethers/ parties would probably be best :P

    Also, I'm glad that I'm Chris saw and liked some of the thoughts I had!

  • Great idea! Quite a few 'it'll never work' posts here.  But I've always been of the give it a go mindset.  If you don't try, it will never work.

  • I was there just now but the lift smelt of wee

  • Yep, we've been emptied. Nothing is there anymore other than a few chickens and beans.
    Posted 7 months ago by ❅Cobalt❅ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • They even took the notes off the board. :O

  • I really like this idea, it's a pretty cool one. A small meeting place for Glitchen would be nice. Obviously, you can't force people to go to the Towers instead of another place, but a *huge* flea market would attract SOME people. ;)
