I started playing Cantr when I was 12/13.

I dont know, I was going to make it colour yes and probably ask if I had to ask rl permmsion to rip somebody elses map in game. But no I welcome someone else to make the map if they want but I dont think I will as I it would be very difficult to find out the history of a place. Actually that's not a bad idea for a char. Prehaps a historian character?

With radios it might actually be possible to govern a multi-town nation but back in the old days it wouldn't make much sense since parts of an empire wouldn't be much aware if what happens in the other parts.

nah you need no rl permission to make maps.
Historians have been tried before, but the problem is that its very easy for history to get lost with the passing of one old character, and few people want to write their history down. (and if they do and die not intentionally, chances are they wouldnt have locked their note, and then someone could just clear all your hard work)

and in response to wiro, i want to make a character who is loyal to empire and such, but i dont want to have to create like 100 characters just to kil 90 of them because i dont like where they spawn , and i do NOT want a full char roster nowabouts.

Yeah, the "decide where you wanna spawn" thing would be good for that.

while that could be quite handy, it'd be abused like whoa.

Yep. Which is the same reason a lot of good suggestions get stomped into the ground.

personally, in its hayday id have liked to see something like "spawn in this region" and block spawning of two characters in the same region (region, like north/south/east/west/central K, but with a different name) So you dont choose your actual town, but in the general area of the town, and you cant spawn any two toons within say 10 towns of eachother.

Depends on your location.
- Every person lost in war is two too many.
- Respect comes from two sides and must be earned. Nobody has the right to it because of a title, sex, age, race or birth.
- What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
- I believe in True Love, do you?

Really? Because about a three weeks ago, four people tried to take a town, and one person single-handedly threw them all into separate buildings/rooms.

Stop bloody saying Cantr is dying. The numbers are going up and up each day. We've told you this. Maybe it's "dead" in your area's because people have a problem with someone else's RP in that area. And therefore don't want to talk. Or move. Or acknowledge they see said person.
