| CLs and the Business District | Started by: MacLeod on Feb 08, '09 15:23 |
|
CLs in their city should be able to wack their respective Business District threads. - It would keep the business district nice and tidy. The admins no longer have to worry about it, and there won't be 3 pages worth of old businesses lying around. Only active businesses would be present in the forum, which benefits everyone. - It would put good pressure on business owners to actually do something with their businesses and work on keeping it active, which would benefit everyone. - It would improve character to character interaction. Admittedly, there is a risk that a CL could go out of control and just start wacking threads of someone he/she didn't like. BUT- why would someone set up a business in a city controlled by someone who didn't like them in the first place? And surely if such an abuse of power was present, the other family leaders could step in and rectify the situation. I fail to see how this would hurt anything. - It would add a greater ability to CLs, which would make being bold mean more. Now a leader would actually be controlling their city. They can charge a tax on businesses and actually be able to enforce it. Either way, it's adding an ability that the CLs SHOULD have, since a fair chunk of the money that the mafia made was in "protection". |

| I like this idea, all too often you'll walk into a business only to find out that it has been long since shut down, with this idea implemented, it will allow CL's to decide when a business is no longer up and running. Bravo Macleod | |

| I'm certainly not the only one who has thought of it. I'm just not sure if there's a tenable argument against it. | |

| But if you had a business that you've made like back in October or November like me, and it is'nt as active as it used to be but it still gets a few people every month. What if a Don just finds out someone has'nt been there for like a week and deletes it? I think the people who own the place should have the ability to close it, in a more realistic way in the 1930s or 1940s a Don won't come to your business and say you have to leave. | |

A Don would send someone to help close your business, if you weren't paying protection. And I don't think we're talking about a situation like "O... no one has been in here for a week". There've been bars IA for months- I just think it would be interesting if the CLs could exercise some more authority to do something about it. |

| Yes but if someone had a business in a city were their family is controling, why can't they just donate not have to pay protection money for their own family. | |

| That would be up to the Don. Which could be RP'd. Which is my point :) | |

I made a similar suggestion some time back, check here: Business Ideas Mikus rightly points out that this would give CL's power over ranking forums, which could be abused. |

Any response on this idea? I understand the argument, The_Jedi, I'm just not buying it. What about a slight modification- only Godfathers can control the business district of their own city? Again... if you think a Godfather might wack your thread... why set up your business in that city? I just don't see the downside, and there's plenty of potential benefits. |

Frank-Blazini steps up 'I co-sign MacLeod more control over the business district means the CLs are really running their city'. |
