Notice regarding the Saddlebag Pawn Shop

(1/3) > >>

Dorganath:
All,As many are aware, we are doing a sweep of housing, which includes guild halls, for properties that are just taking up space and not benefitting the player base as a whole.A special case in this sweep is the Saddlebag Pawn Shop at 181 Port Hempstead Fields, however, the current owner (Calylith Eluchil) has not been seen since 2013. While not an actual official "guild" as we have defined them, this establishment was created by three characters and has a commerce-oriented purpose. If any of the other founders are present or if there is someone officially associated with the organization, please post below. If not, we would consider letting someone else take responsibility for this location and the services it provides.However if no one does, we will be inclined to shutter the Saddlebag Pawn Shop and return its address to the open market.

Since the location is a personal home and Daniel does not have a home of his own per se - he currently resides in an apartment of sorts at 189 Wayfare -  I would be willing to assume ownership and keep it functioning as it is while using the upstairs as quarters if Serissa/Lana is amendable.  It seems to offer a niche that guilds simply cannot provide and I would hate to see that functionality go away for lack of a caretaker.sincerely,cb. ps.  Consider this a first offer, I'll defer to anyone else who wants to assume this since DB is already a Angels guildmember and I'm not sure how this crosses a line or  if it does.

Unfortunately, this may very well cross a line...or at least step very deepily into the grey fringes of said line, enough to probably make it wise to err very strongly on the side of caution. As a prominent member of the Angels, which is an economic/trade-oriented guild, Daniel operating another trade-related entity (even though it's of a different model) is kind of going against the spirit of the rules...even if the Saddlebag shop itself is not officially a "guild" as we have defined them.This is not a hard "no", but it is not really what we would consider an ideal situation. In either case, we'll leave this open for now.

davidhoff:
Corky would volunteer to run the Saddle.  He's an unofficial member of a gnomish guild set up to run the unofficial guild of gnomes working out of a house previously owned by Sygian in Dalanthar.   That house was transfered to one of Stargazer's characters.  Some of the chests have been stocked and maintained by various characters (mainly Ryubi), but no official guild has been created to my knowledge; and I'm not sure any current plans to do so are being pushed at this point.*Corky eyes the huge treasure trove at the Saddle* I'm also not sure where Corky would keep all the profits/donations of the Saddle; let alone how to use/invest them.Edit:  Corky would also probably make some changes on how its run if he has his say-so.

Guardian 452:
My character Dot used to assist with the running of Saddlebag pawn. I would love to see someone keep that thing going. It sure is a nice system IMO. If whomever takes over has any questions feel free to PM me or email might be faster since I dont check here too often anymore amellecker@yahoo.com PeaceG-452
