The Nomad Feedback & Improvements

This might sound heavily like suggestion but I just spill my mind here as feedback.

While I love the bar rank-system, I feel the activity time should be increased to be more than one week. Feels silly that someone loses title of brewmaster and dropped into server if they happen to be serving less than a week. I think owner of the inn should get permament special title like "innkeeper" or something which reveals them from the other workers to show who's the boss.

I also believe that the Nomad should have control over the rooms in the upstairs as after all, they're part with the inn, as IC it makes sense that the innkeeper would be interested who and what kind of people spent their nights in the inn. Maybe even get small coin too out of them like 1-5% to keep the inn running.

Anyway this is just piece of my mind but I love the bar system what comes with the inn ownership. :)

If there was a drop from Brewmaster straight down to Server... yikes. I never had that happen while I owned the Nomad, that I can remember. It should only be the loss of one rank, not a complete reset, if you're demoted because of a decrease in activity behind the bar. I can also kinda see the sense in giving the owner their own title in the bar ranking system, with the caveat that they wouldn't get any "special" weekly xp boost simply because they're the owner. The point of the bartender system is to give people more RP opportunities, and to automatically reward them based on how much bartending activity they perform on a weekly basis, after all.

As for control of the other rooms in the building? Eheh… yeah, no. Even in regular guildhouses, the owner of the building doesn't gain control over the other quarters available inside (aside from being able to lock them out via changing the locks on the guildhouse's main door, that is). The owner of the Fool's Clover - one of the only two comparable properties on the entire server, currently - doesn't have that sort of thing, either. The Cordor Vaults are technically in the same building, downstairs from the Clover. Should the Clover owner be able to have a say in who can own a vault? Nope.

You want to be able to have a say in who rents the rooms? No other property owner has that kind of mechanical power. Why should the Nomad owner? You're better off with going the RP route, and if trying to get someone evicted, spin a good/believable enough yarn in-character so that those empowered to do such are convinced to do the evicting on your behalf.

Mind you, I had a few similar thoughts while my character owned the Nomad. But after having time to reflect on it once ownership changed hands, I came to realize that sort of thing would only serve to put more power in the hands of one player, simply because of which property they own.
