Gnome pops in and looks for the coffee.

Dranoel sneaks in the door and starts to look for doughnuts

PAullo sits and waits for the discussion.

WHO STOLE THE SPRINKLED DONUT??!!!!! Okay, Im here.

I have been in the taverns as of late. ( I have nothing else better to do then to listen to the town gossip) and most are proud of the current market situation. So, hazzah to the mayor. Someone was crying that no one was buying his meat, I bought him an ale and all was better again. I have been schooling the new comers to our town in the tavern. No, I DONT want that possition. Im just trying to help out.

I for one am NOT for taxes. I understand them but Im not for them. If we have to go that way, and from the weekly reports it looks like we will be gentle. Thats all I ask. LOL


Yes, I would like to see more attendance in the forums. Hell, with my busy schedual, if I can make it anyone can just type in a few lines. I know we dont have anymore laws to vote on but lets come up with ideas for us to vote. If they dont like the way a law is written, then lets rewrite it in another mannor and vote again. We ARE a TA. It just seems like most of us are sitting back on our laurals and thumb wrestling ourselves.

I cant think of anything else. ( I am also moving and so I have to get back to it) Lets keep this going but keep it going where it belongs, in the forums. We need activity there.

Well I don't have anything to complain about, food is for sale aplenty, everyone buys my clothing and my studies are going well, I just got 100% in institutions. When in the taverns I rarely hear any complaints about the mayor, only about the absence of livestock. Etcetera etcetera, in my opinion everything is going just fine. My two cents.

Jibboo can hardly open the door. Her arms and hands are filled with good things to drink and eat.
"Hallo there! It is so good to see you all!"
Jibboo smiles and tries to open the door wider with her packed hands. While she is almost dropping her bags, she asks "How is every one?"

Gnome jumps up to help Gina and Jibboo get stuff settled on the table

Jibboo puts down the heavy bags and pulls out some Birka and some other treats.
"I answer your question to be a carpenter. I work off and on in the carpentry shop. For a while I did more. Thank you for the reminder, to put more time into the shop. I will try my best. I think what throws me off a little is: I like to level up some day and try to collect some money. It is a little difficult having the pub, since I have to buy bread and pay taxes to the pub. Often I don't even cut even with the pub and need "quick" money. That's the reason why there is just one meal at Moody's.
So I started to neglect the carpentry. Anyhow, would there be a possibility to change how the pub works? I think I rather would like the idea of getting paid for having the pub and when my Bartender is coming back I would like to give him some money for the time and effort he puts into it. Maybe a smaller amount could be paid for taxes?"

"Oh, I like the idea of a summer fest and the Miss contest..., maybe for the man a drinking contest..? LOL"

(ooc: cool, you changed the year!)

Paullo, you were on that Council that denied it...do you think it will do any good to rework it ?.

I don't believe any type of restrictive law would be approved in the current Council. Currently there is a discussion to change the Economic Manipulation Law, so you can understand my answer.

One thing I wanna discuss also is harassment. It seems Rathen witnessed an incident where a man was harassing a lady in our taverns, & when he stepped in, he was disrespected. Do we have a harassment law on the books ? I haven't gone thru them piece by piece, but maybe one of you know ? If not, should we maybe try to get one of those ?

If Rathen took a screenshot he can pass it to Isabella or LJS, and the guy will be banned or suspended - depending of the type of harassment.

Remember Grendell? When I was PP I started a prosecution against him. He sent me some awful messages, and they contributed with the reset of his character for the 2nd time.

Some time ago, when Galdun was a priest in Evesham, he took a screenshot of a guy harassing a girl in the tavern. The guy was banned quickly.

This is adm policy, no need of a Law for it.

BUTCHERS: 16 ... 1 in retreat ... I only know for sure of 3 active ... Gnome, Paullo & Thejesus...there are probably more, judging by the amount of meat on the market, but those are the ones I KNOW are working

Actually, I didn't work in the last 2 weeks as butcher for lack of HW and HHW. There is none being sold, and I cannot produce mine because the cycle of animals is very irregular recently (Sheriff is having problems, as you can see).

My question is this: How much should we do per field/profession ?

I don't like Tax, but if you decide to levy it you should take into consideration:

*Some level 2 professions simply do not give money. And I do doubt that someone will pay 500 p. (changing his workshop) only to do not pay tax - or destroying it. So, when taxing workshops, tax everybody equally, but not with too much cost for them.

*Currently animal fields are not giving a profit too.

*It is easy to change a field, so remember that taxing only one type can stimulate our inhabitants to change their field type. You can use it to bring some prices down.

Well to answer the question of carpenters.I was working steady in my shop to keep the things our town needs but as I have taken the position of Cheif Marshal. It would seem that I will no longer be able to perform these actions. So we will need one other to take on the job of carpentry...also I am in need of a deputy to work along with me in defending the power.......is this something the town hall can hire for? I beleive the wages were 18 pounds. I like the idea of a summerfest and pagent...always like looking at the pretty ladies in their swimsuits As far as the tax situation goes .Well no one likes taxes but I am in agreement with what ever the council decides is the best course of action........
Dranoel sits back and listens for a response........................
