Rent system needs to be compleated:P

Post by 252-rer »

ok mit its been long enough the way it is.
eveyone is getting tired of the renting system as it is and it need to make more logical sense than whoever rents getts full control of the building and cant stop paying rent.
this is what i belive needs to happen:
1) Renters should not even have the demolish building etc. option as thats crazy.
2)Building owners need to be able to kick out their renters after a delay period like the tax change wait time but shorter than that:P
3)renters need to be able to terminate thier rent the same way. Ive had enough of ive rented your building and im going broke:P.
4)renters cannot sell the a building they are renting:P
5)(i hope you already cant do this:P) renters can never rent out buildings they are renting.
also i think mabey include demolish for the owner at all times but i dont know what do you think?


sry see below:P i cant trust other ppls info:P and i thought since it was on the menu you could do it:P

Well, without sounding mean here this is what i have to say...
You haven't investigated what the renters can and can't actually do.

1) it says they could demolish the building (as its an action in the building menu) but if you tried, then you would realise this wasn't possible as it says something like 'This is only up to the owner'

2) Um, i don't think they should be able to evict people as sometimes the person won't be on to accept they are being evicted. I think the way it is now, is that your taking a little risk renting out something because you have no idea for how long it will be before you get it back.

3) There is an option (set by the world owner) which controls how long someone has to rent a building for before they are able to stop. This could be set at 1 year, and after that they can stop renting (this is to stop people renting a business with 200s invest in for 1 day removing it and stopping renting.)

4) They can't (see 1 for details)

5) As above

So my summary, the renters building screen menu's are very untidy and should be modified, but its not that big a deal, and is extremly low on the Priority list right no i'd imagine - that goes for the whole rental system, including this point

Oh my gooosh rer. You are a noob eh?
You may think you know everything but just investigate.
1) Impossible, mit isn't that stupid
2) I agree, but in normal life, theres a contract so here it's the same. They can apply for residency after a year, but that actually is broken... Contract meaning you stay in the building for so long (renting)
3) I agree, but there already is an option.
4) They can;t
5) "Ditto"
No offence.

Some people like to act like they're intelligent by quoting other people.
But one hint: Don't quote Tom, he might be drunk.

anyway if renters can terminate after a minumum time why cant ther owner do the same after the same period?.

when a renter rents, they need to have enough money to pay the first 6 months of rent.
a renter can only stop renting after 1 year, this is to stop people from renting a building, removing the stock and investment, then stopping renting.

it would be nice if the owner could evict a renter, but it would have to be so nobody would get screwed. in real life, a landlord must by law give 30 days prior notice when evicting somebody. this is to allow the person time to find a place to move to and to move out. since in-game people don't always play regularly, i would say 1 game year prior notice to eviction. but that even isen't enough time for many people as alot only come on once every 2 or 3 days.
