Anyone familiar with FFXI should find this idea familiar, but here it is anyways: The entire world map is divided into a series of regions, and each nation gets a certain number of points assigned to this region according to how active they are. In FFXI, the mroe monsters your nation kills in an are...

Indeed he can... and I shall certainly dream on.

Not that I'm really strong enough to actually kill anyone... I'm only a 23.

I think that before we start seriously discussing the addition of any governmental system to a game like this, we need to lay down some basic groundwork on what to discuss.

I didn't really want to post this, for reasons that should be obvious, but here I go anyways... I've noticed that right outside the town, certain red scorpions will not move at all.

So basically, you think a government feature will make the game seem more like reality? :wink: One way you could prevent this is if different players could "rate" other players, kind of like on eBay or XBox 360 Live. Good or nice players could get higher ratings from the players they help,...
