If you're going to use that as your arguement, Id like to remind you that no one had 400 bodyguards back in the day.

wheres this 400 come from?... Its funny how this 400 number keeps getting brandished about

They also didn't have RHM/LHM who just joined the family. We can bring 400 arguments and roll them into one.

Fact of the matter is, the ones who went against the money got buried for it. It's always foolish not to get the most out of what you can....ESPECIALLY in this line of work.

Also, if they could have they would have...no doubts in my mind.

400 was the bodyguard cap at a recent point in time. Thus the reason why I used it.

You might want to check your source again. As far as i'm aware no-one has ever had anywhere near 400bgs, including the recent war

It was a number that got thrown out once and seems to have stuck as 'the cap'

Anyway, thats getting off topic. I bid you all a good day

Allow me to ask a question to the floor. If we're not going to make money, what are we going to do? Wander around chatting and showing respect to one another, occasionally shooting people? Perhaps not even shooting people if Alchemy's concept catches on. Perhaps the standard person who doesn't join a family and isn't active "deserves a chance" to join a family? I'm not sure where this "business", if I can call it that, is going but I'd love to know if someone can grab a second. I will say that I'm exceptionally glad about Kimble's free speech policy, where as long as you don't insult someone or disrespect anyone, you're good. I'm happy to adhere to that and stay between the lines, as long as I can express an opinion.

Clarity came to the streets after hearing of the news that there was an interesting topic being spoken about there. She saw people debating back and forth about the subject, but she decided she would focus on the speakers words rather than the arguments going around.

"I absolutely love this idea, it is a great one, and one that I hope to someday see amongst more families. Robots are a curse as much as they are a blessing."

Switching her weight from her left foot to her right she then put her hand to her chin to think a moment. She knew that even though this idea was a good one there was some positive things about these robots.

"The only issue I have with this idea is for smaller families. Those just starting out on their journey, who don't have the luxury of having plenty of members in their family, somewhat need these robots to keep them up and running. As much as I adore the idea of no longer having them around, in these times they are a bit necessary. No matter how much people wish that things didn't revolve around "will this help this city and its leaders survive a war" motto, this world will always be that way."

"Yet, this is not me saying we should keep these robots. Right now with the way things are they are needed. Once a crew gets to around 35-40 or so real members I believe they no longer have a need for such robots and can be rid of them. If I saw leaders adopting this idea I would be thrilled, but as much as I hate to say it, these robots in my opinion are here to stay and for good reasons. Unless you're lucky enough to have a whole family bestowed upon you, gaining numbers was a slow process, and the amount of money that wasn't coming in could hinder the new auth."

Clarity was on both sides of the fence with this issue. She felt that many were like this and nodded to show her respect to others before heading off.

I still can't believe you wouldn't just take the free money. As a matter of fact...I can't believe your Godperson is allowing you to deliberately not tribute your far share. If I were running a city and I found out one of my captians could easily be tributing more and wasn't...then told the world about it, I'd put a bullet in his head. that sounds like stealing friend. As for the RobinHood thing about money and because of my name ...blah blah... Hello? I steal from rich pricks like you...the more money you make the more I can steal.

As a matter of fact, you likely have some money that had my name on it...hows 1 mill sound?

Jade walks at the streets now very much occupied by dwellers and people who wanted to be hear out. She patiently wait till she can speak at the crowd

I would believe you are pertaining to me Robinhood as his Godperson. Why should I kill someone because he have his own principle? Will not that make me a dictator?

You said that

I still can't believe you wouldn't just take the free money. As a matter of fact...I can't believe your Godperson is allowing you to deliberately not tribute your far share.

.

How would you know what I think is the fair share my captains give me? His loyalty to me through thick and thin since he had started to me from the very 1st day is something that cannot be measure by coins or weighing scale. It is up to me who will say if he is neglecting on what he should be contributing.

Why shouldn't I allow what his beliefs in, when he adapt that belief from me and make it as his when he is now a captain, nay not only a captain but my UnderBoss in the fair city of Los Angeles. I auth him because I believe in him, that he will carry what he learned from his journey from gangster to what he is now.

I auth my captain knowing that they are old enough and experience enough to make their own decisions , they are not puppet for me to pull their strings. They are alive and breathing and have their own minds to think what is best for their family and for the city.

Having said that she nods at Alchemy and bids him well

I really am not sure where you get this idea these robots are free money. How do you think they are acquired for the family in the first place?

They certainly are not given to you for free.

Alchemy listens to what has been said and notices the main argument against this is on the basis of money

Let me try again to explain this to you, they were never originally ment to be all about the money, my own members can make me money, those that don't know how I will teach. The only reason to have these things for money is laziness and small families who are starting out. If you have a medium to large family and still can't make money to pay your way, then you need to work with your family. Also to echo on Po_Pandaren they are not free far from it.

I take my position given to me by Jade very seriously and she knows this, you are very much mistaken to think by me doing this that it is sone sort if insult to her. You don't need to concern yourself with my earnings or tributes, that is not what this is about. Also to clarify this again, in no way am I saying everyone must do this, how other families run there business is there own, this as the title says about how I choose to run my own.

Alchemy continues with his daily business and thanks those who have came out to speak

I must admit i can understand the utilisation of these robots and the rewards they can build and their high level of discipline and information collection.  However, when a war comes they can not defend the family unless you equip them, when a member needs to learn they cant answer his or her questions and they dont play a part in our street and business districts they are not to be found.   I wish you luck in your attempts with this strategy.

I stand corrected and offer aplogies for being incorrect in my previous statement. Thank you for the clarification Squishy.

Get back in your box, Elvis.

Sweeney was skipping along the streets as he always do with his pet frog Mr. Albert. He heard about this new suggestion from a Crew Leader of there stance agianst the Robots. Sweeney was pleased so he was coming to see what all the fuzz is about. He enters in the depth of the conversation and begins.

Ah! As, I love this no policy of Robots slash zombies. I hate these robots taking up space and room for nothing. When my family touched this life that I'm blessed to be apart of; there were no such things as robots or zombies. Now we treat like this is a normal thing in our day in age? Fuck that. They scare me! Death to them all!

Sweeney throws Mr. Albert in the air then catches him.

I do not like these robots.
I am glad that you decided to give up these robots
I hope that every family can stop with these robots.

Squishy, While were handing out information. Tell us a story about the guy who holds the record for the biggest gun please?
