Nasomi Community FFXI Server :: Put a voting system in place?

It's impossible to completely recreate 2005 without the people, so I've had to make some adjustments. With adjustments come balancing issues. I never really appreciated what SE did until I ran my own server. Finding balance is hard, takes a lot of trial and error, and you're the bad guy any time anything gets any harder ever.

That being said, SE also knew something else. SE knew that the player does not want what the player says they want. The player does not know what htey want. Their biggest downfall is listening to hte player, and that's how you get what XI is today.

I'm not out to give players a task, I'm out to give them a home, a place to go and live and adventure and do whatever they want, so long as they behave to a reasonable degree.

The goal is the 2005 experience, but not always the 2005 game. There are some variations that were necessary to adapt. However I try to stay true to the spirit of what the game was back then, because that's my fondest memories.

I was thinking since this is a private server of an old school time in this games history maybe we should put a voting system in place to gauge what players want.. For instance in old school runescape they come up with ideas for new content or tweaks for quality of life and let the players vote Yes or No on them and if the vote is a higher percentage No then they dont implement the changes.. Might be an interesting idea for Nasomi to consider, let me know what you think!!

"Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they're going to want before they do. I think Henry Ford once said, "If I'd asked customers what they wanted, they would have told me, 'A faster horse!'" People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on market research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page." - Steve Jobs

You have been here less than a week going by your other post. Please spend some time on the server before trying to post things that "Nasomi should do".
