To all Builders and Recruits:

The reservations on Builder and Recruit worlds must come to an end. People are reserving space, and leaving it for ages, while others are taking up insanely large portions of the map for themselves. There have been numerous complaints and issues related to reserving plots of land; it must end.

The most recent Builder world was definitely the straw that broke the camel's back. Within a few days, every block on the world was taken up before hardly any building even began!

This being said, if you see someone else has started building something, don't intrude on their space. Its pretty obvious when you are impeding on a creation.

So, enough already, no more reservations.

I support this.

I hate reservations, but what about int the members worlds? some builders/recruits reserve space there.

Finally! I totally agree with this post

Builders and Recruits shouldnt even be BUILDING there... it's the new member's place to build, if builders take up all the room, where's the member's gonna build?

I see your point, maybe they should be told not to build there too.

Agreed, people need to stop reserving space.
It finishes the map without even any building in it.

Hm, well sometimes theres a need for reservations. There will end up being disputes about whos building where. You should have reservation rules, 'build a substantial amount in your reserved space everyday, and that amount has to be part of the build', or something like that. If you remove reservations then there will be people fighting because someone else accidentally built on an area the first builder might have needed. Just saying... 

can you reserve space if you instantly start building?
like: 'i know i need this much space, here's a start.'?

I would say just make an outline of what you're going to build.

This

When i build something i always outline it first, plus people need to use common sense on how much space to give a project.

Seriously. Not trying to be rude, but that star destroyer is way too big. It almost takes up a fourth of the map. It IS good, but please refrain from building such big projects. Remember, big builds do not make them better builds than smaller ones.

I tend to agree with you there.

I completely agree

The one that muhnator built? I don't seem to care if they turn out amazing like muhnator's but if they are too big and don't amaze you then I think you shouldn't even bother to build them.
