  1. Hey @yamamushi what do you think about rp with Roberts Rules of Order? That's what I'm offering ?hmm, no, how about gamers vs Roberts Rules of Order? Maybe...? Check out my idea, if you haven't. Partnership for the Creation of Civilization, it's an idea and a work in progress. Message me if you want. I will look for you on discord. I know that this isn't what you are looking for, but maybe interest.
  2. @Warden just not what I was expecting. Kinda seems intimidating, I did see a few say no app needed, so that's encouraging. Guess it depends on the focus of the organization. My opinion, we should always find room and remember its a game.
  3. @yamamushi I'm sure you will (if not already have) find a meaningful place to have fun and contribute. I bet a lot of people, I'll include myself, feeling alone. Looks like you have skills too! Do orgs really have applications? Idk, isn't this supposed to be a social game? I hope you find what you are looking for.
  4. Closing Thread due to Technical Issues and Development considerations. Please unfollow. We will rethink our organizations approach and development, on hope to provide a place for collaboration an relationship building. Forgive me for backing out of the original ideas. In the future, an organization thread will supply more concrete structure and purpose.
  5. I am looking for partners to help lay the foundation for a new civilization.

     

         I'm very new to this type of game.  I have played mmorpg games before, however, I have never really had an opportunity to get involved with larger aspects of them.  I am excited at this opportunity, but also fearful in so many ways at the prospects of failure and the many challenges that this game poses.  In the end, I just want to have fun, build things and make friends.

         I have created a few topics in the forum and from them learned a great deal about the game and the community.  During these past few days, as I have been engaged in discussions and arguments, I have come to hope there are people who can relate to where I am coming from.  Over and again, I was told that if I wanted an organization whos principles could share my own, I should create one, however, this again poses and even greater challenge.

         Now, the challenge posed to me was to create that organization.  First, I considered, why?  There are lots of orgs.  I have done some digging, which confirmed that there are many orgs, however, many are small and unlikely to compete with the "Elite" orgs that have risen to the top.  Second, I thought, what would be the point, how can I make a difference?  Although I have an idea I believe strongly in, there truly is no way that I feel I can, on my own, make a difference in DU through the creation of an org based on the ideas of democracy, equality, freedom, justice and security.  Plenty offer these in their own way, but how many org makers are willing to give an org, which they have created, to the citizens and people?  I do not know.

         Then, I thought, it could be possible, if a partnership of people who could share and shape this vision joined together in the creation of an org unique to what we have ever seen in a game.  On org created for the players, with open and free citizenship, who's power arises from inspiration.  A place where every voice is equal, a place where leaders are chosen by the people, not the administrator.  A place where justice would focus on life, liberty and property.  Where security and freedom mean a balance for peace and liberty for all players, where everyone can be a citizen, where anyone can belong.

         Finally, I thought, maybe there is someone out there, who shares in this vision and ambition to transform DU for the betterment of all.  So I am asking for partners, who will shape their hopes and dreams to life, together.  Partners who are willing and able to work for the cause of something greater than ego and personal power.  Partners, knowing full well that when a new Nation of freedom is created, it will not belong to us few, but to all.  Knowing that we will not dictate the direction of it, but only lay it's foundation.

  6. I believe @Thainz post was meant for the Robotic workforce and factories forum by @unown006 so check that out if your interested.
  7. @Nanoman thanks for the link. As far as the idea I have been proposing, I tend to agree with you. I can't preach player voting power and community then say except when I don't like the majority consensus against it. If you wanted to dig through the forum, you probably would find the core of my reasoning and various aspects of how it would be different. I'm pretty much stepping out of the way if anyone wanted to add to my side of this or offer up other ideas on it.
  8. Interesting topic. I like robots. AI has a lot of potential in real life too. Isn't robotics and AI in dev background? It will be cool to see how we can use and create it. I remember reading how players would not have god power, but robots and AI is within the reach of man.
  9. @virtuozzo I can see the value of the quote tool if it's use well for small point on point organization in a response. You're alright man, you always have a lot to add to the conversation. I don't know if I'm the best person to argue those points. Does anyone think there's any value, in any way to this idea of community org or suggested tools? Finally, I'll end with a quote: "A man convinced against his will, is of the same opinion still."
  10. @Nanoman I did read those devblogs. I have looked into different orgs also. I agree that there are large possibilities and options already planned for orgs. For me, the main focus of the game is Civilization Building, and rebuilding Civilization as well as a strong focus on community and player created content. I saw this from the kickstart to the devblog. Organizations don't seem to final and complete at this stage. I think a lot is assumed based on the standard player expectations and desires, which obviously have to be strongly considered into every aspect of the game I suppose. They did say there is a lot of risk they are talking in general to the creation of the game itself. I also understand that it would be impassable to please everyone.
  11. Hey @virtuozzo, I'm just asking please don't use quote tool. It's hard to follow a bunch of people "yelling at clouds." Mostly it keeps unnecessary reputation of what is already there and help keep the number of pages down. If other people want to join the topic, they would be able to follow better imho.
  12. Hey @unown006, absolutely, we should have both types. I guess the topic is focused the ability to use force fields, primarily for based defense, right. So, one way we could look at it is a super powerful defence bubble. It could be easy to get, compatible with static constructs (cuz of some scientific reason), and it would provide a one time limited use (uses a lot of power, and lasts 48 hours). Kinda as a last resort, like EMP is used. Just some thoughts. Shield would be damage reducing and force fields would be more or less an electric structure that nothing can pass through. Those are some of my thoughts on the idea. And they should be available in different and gnarly color effects (for defence porpoises).
  13. Hello all! So I added a rule yesterday for this topic. I'm asking everyone to please avoid using the "QUOTE" tool, and use the @name call out to communicate to users. I've seen quote used well and spring, and I've seen it abused. Name callout, cuz we are talking to people, not strings of words.
  14. Harsh my mellow guys. And your face, if I never see that emogy again it'll be too soon @CoreVamore. And @Lethys, you tell me this all the time. Maybe I'll get lucky and join the org that wins. But seriously, it's been fun. ?️‍♂️
  15. A community where we can all belong, I can dig that. ? That's what I've been saying, maybe my English is bad. ????⚽️⚾️????
  16. @CoreVamore I do understand your point, I just disagree. It's like we're talking about two different things. I respect your stand friend. Either way ruling structures will be there in the form of other players orgs, as I see it, and they gonna take my stuff, my land and my freedom.
  17. @Aaron Cain man, sounds like they're deep in your pockets and your a..anyway. I hope they give good benefits, roads, I bet roads are nice out there. So I can just change the name to Community org. People don't hate community right, or civilization org, makes it sound like it needs to be more big and more important.
  18. Shields (the si-fi kind) vs force field. Uses, cost, power consumption. How much damage do they prevent? Do they degrade in effectiveness against damage over time or do they supply constant levels of protection? Is there a variety of protection and color?
  19. Hello @unown006. Big numbers. Sounds about right. Survival, yes. What about rebuilding civilization? Anyway, I added a rule, I'll mention, please don't use the "QUOTE" tool, use the name callout. I hope the big ones ain't run by big ... um.. jerks. Just give me org and let me build. Additionally, something about no one should own organizations if everyone don't own it. Power to the players! Community above candidates! Freedom and justice for all! Can orgs do it? Is it possible? What's the incentive? Why do people hate gov org?
