Dogbert's house!

[DarkRenji]

disregard my last post.

The price doesn't make a difference, Andrew could've said 0$ if he wanted to.
But no, it's not like it's free you know. He put it up for 125,000 because it'd be extremely ridiculous to make it higher than 200,000$.
It's not even a house, more like a silly custom made 4 walled box.
House: a. A structure serving as a dwelling for one or more persons, especially for a family.
Doghouse: doghouse - outbuilding that serves as a shelter for a dog

Who wants to make me a Treehouse to put up in a tree right next to unstick?

Sure, great, you guys made him a doghouse...are you up for making something for every player who pms me complaining that it's unfair that he gets something special and they dont?

Not to mention it's a doghouse...are you serious?

How is it "common sense" at all? You're not giving him a dog house, he's not trading a dog house, he wouldn't be able to trade his dog house, he's buying the dog house.

The reason it would be a fraction of the price of a house is because it isn't a house, it's a dog house and it shouldn't serve the same purpose as a house does. Why are players going to want something that serves no purpose other than being a quirky part of their character? Something everyone can go see, something everyone can go visit? Something that gives no actual advantage to the player at all? It's not real estate, and it certainly isn't rocket science.

Perhaps if players contacted outside developers to make some decent content as well then Era's overworld would be a little more developed and a little less generic. Things like this should be encouraged, and in your position you should be the one who encourages it. You dismissed it off as special treatment, but it really isn't.

That is entirely different as he is not asking for something to be added in the heart of the server, in fact he's asking for the opposite.

While I've seen quite a few doghouses as I've walked around outside of my house, I didn't realize we had dragons that live in caves in real life. Man, I must be really missing out.

Do you think the grotto has a point? No.
Do you think Amsel's house has a point? No.
They're just custom made designs to add creativity to the game.

And BlueMelon, that's a horrible example.
If you find a dragon head and body, you aren't even going to need a cave for the thing.

Also, Renji. The whole "treehouse" thing your going with, just shows that you're trolling.
Not going to respond to that one.

You're right, price doesn't make a difference. I'm just not uploading or allowing anything (short of heads/bodies) to be uploaded specifically for one individual. If everyone had the same opportunity to have a dog house, or something similar, then I'd have no problem with it -- but they don't.

As far as uploading new levels for houses which are already owned goes (because I know someone will bring it up): the houses were available for anyone to purchase and all levels have to be approved first. We also don't usually allow new outsides.

So if you'd like to purchase an existing house and have a "silly custom made 4 walled box" for the insides feel free.


Rufus, Era has a weight system - the more items you have, the slower you move. Players buy homes to store items, and I'm pretty sure he would use the doghouse for this same purpose.

Where did anyone say that the dog house was specifically for one individual? It was pretty clearly just stated that it'd be free to use for everyone as it is not an actual house, yet you continue to go on about houses. To reiterate the point here, it's not a house.

Yet people seem to think that doghouses are out of context for Era? Heh.

I'm posting this for Fatherrat.
Here's his say on this.
"Typically to the people complaining about Dogbert's thing which I'm not going to say what it is.
I can't post on the forums so here it is.

Dogbert is an old player, he actually plays a really long time even though he only has 1k+ hours. He deserves it. It's not like it's a house that everyone wants. He wanted it because he thought it up. Unless you guys can put effort, have money and be the first to get the idea, then nobody will get one. So seriously, quit it. As soon as you see Dogbert having it the possibility is you all go insane. We were really excited for this, and now you screw it up. Dogbert played the role of a "DOG". Go live in your Southridge houses. God."

Where? =S
Unless I missed something, it hasn't been stated that it was not for one individual, either...in fact, the first post says he is "getting his own snoopy house".

Everything about it resembles a house -- location, insides, the fact that he's willing to pay for it...

Look, let's just keep this simple.
No one else will get a doghouse, only me.
I could go on and on arguing with you, it would only make the situation worse.

[Motherat]

It will be unlocked most of the time, and it will probably be public.
But it was MY idea, and if anyone else wants to say "oh plz give me a doghouze lol!!!" they can just deal with you Sales.

There is already a housing system on Era. Uploading this doghouse would disrupt the system that is already in place. If Dogbert wants a house on Era then he can buy one of the houses that are already available. It's a pretty simple concept. (Why does my post count keep decreasing..?)
