Get rid of tokens and put some of these "Token Powers" into other things such as salvage items like relics, fragments, even "Goblin Bags"

or

please adjust lesser token drops to "lower lvl mobs. smile

P.S We plan to have all of our structures available to at least all that are not aggressive to us or our friends.

This is true now, or only in the *future*?
See the bold above. Right (currently) now the only thing that has changed is Caer Coedweg being fully open and accessible. Not all other "Dominion" settlements are fully or partially closed according to the settlement leader's will.

As is also "current" policy, if you find yourself unable to access any "Dominion" settlement, all that is needed is to contact that settlement's leader (through direct or proxy contact) so that he/she knows that you would like that changed. This would probably be an agreement between you and them to not be aggressive to our members and anything else that particular leader has concerns about.

Several of our Leaders are not interested in playing at workarounds with the "Blacklist" and "Unaffiliated" systems and having a big mess to edit later. That is likely why some groups or persons find themselves unable to access certain parts of The Dominion's existing facilities.

I like you and have respect for you, Xyzzy, which is why I am(once again) re-informing you of this current policy. As things change and mechanics come online, The Dominion is considering some significant changes but it is not for me to detail those yet. smile

It doesn't mean much that a settlement can have zero buildings because the server(in general) is willing to allow anyone to train and craft at their facilities…

Ultimately, we always expected most settlements to be pretty open in terms of letting outsiders use their facilities, since doing so will let them bring in more tax money (starting in EE 15). Going without buildings means both turning down those possible earnings, and having to pay others to use their facilities.

Yes, well I can see how that would leave the option open to structure the support mechanic the way that you have. Honestly though, I do have some concerns about future ramifications but I am aware that how people end up using mechanics rarely ends up as bad as imagined. Just look at all the years of debate about griefers. Never materialized. smile

You have demonstrated that you ARE blacklisted in some places. You have not demonstrated that it is a practice that the server accepts without grumbling about, making it a sort of "taboo".

but, the point is: It doesn't mean much that a settlement can have zero buildings because the server(in general) is willing to allow anyone to train and craft at their facilities…

Note: So long as it is such a Taboo to restrict settlement access to structures for non member/non allies with the current population(for reasons that escape me: Hello Kitty Island I suppose) it really matters little for the short term(half a year or more) anyway.

Those that have achieved crafting upgraded buildings… should they wait to place them and enjoy the bonuses rather than paying the increased upkeep?

I suppose they should! smile

Were there times when you thought we might not make 10?

Do you think that any opportunity exists in the area of using tech both from your mule follower mechanics and tweaking the aggro system? Something like you activate a crafted item(like mule saddle bags), and the "follower" (man-at-arms, skeleton, combat pet, whatever) simply follows like a mule and shares the "summoner's" aggro?

That scales poorly. The same set of materials can have different rates of conversion to items. It's better to account for the time than to adjust based on the materials, that way you're not shorting yourself as you have limited "time" per day to spend on crafting items.
Agreed with Duffy on this.
I generally don't bother with minutes until I'm crafting T2 and up. I think that 1c/min is fair.
