Man Raven, when you used to play, we had a blood feud- but you were probably still one of the best managers MMT's had.

i would have to say sam was better then me lol

When I actively played GK, I hung at the MMT quite a bit. I didn't need food because I was/am Bile, but it's always enjoyable to have a party. I remember the Crescent Pirates would almost always have our parties and celebrations there :). Also, when I was a GM, I used the MMT as a place to hold Birthday Parties. Would order a bunch of cake for everyone and it was quite fun! Don't get rid of the MMT.

Let's say place 10 Inferno swords and wait 10 minutes for someone to rob them.

Also why did Drakeroo become manager? He's rarely on. I think Kale should be one.

Did you just compare Inferno Swords to food? If i saw ten inferno's on the ground (except if it's for an event i.e in testbed.nw), yes, i'd rob them and have no remorse.

Agreed. I don't know about how it is these days, but I know the storage room was always misused to store private stuff.

The Major problem with Misty Mug Tavern is trust, I know when John was Manager he only ever hired older players who were well respected and rich enough not to steal anything to begin with and I think he is one of the only Managers in the history of the Tavern not to have the store room robbed.

Yeah but I think it is not a good solution. Older players focuses on others things as serving or farming food.
The MMT should be a preparation for a kingdom membership, a place for new players to learn RPing, working in a team, learning skills etc.
It should be run by someone having a stake in training new players.

The best solution is to have a room above the back room which is a store room that only managers/owner etc can enter. That room would store most of the food/materials with the back room just having enough food/materials. Every couple of days a manager can refil the back room with stock from the store room.

It won't stop stuff being stolen, but atleast it will stop masses ammount of stuff being stolen since they'll only be able to take the limited supplies that are within the back room.

What about a kind of cauldron for each staff, that cannot be taken away or opened by some else? If possible it could be made that in addition the manager can open it too.

Wouldn't a simpler solution be to simply make a script that puts a sign in the room showing something like;

*2/26/2010* 07:26
Account Clockwork left Pizza ( 10 ) in the storeroom.

*2/26/2010* 15:39
Account Stephen took Pizza ( 10 ) from the storeroom.

Or just repair the spells intentionally broken so MMT would be more... "successful".

Can you be a little more specific what you mean by that?

I never trusted him.. >;o

Restoration. When it used to refill your food bar.
