I am sure this subject has been touched but wanted to bring it to the surface again. Lately I have encountered players taking it upon themselves to RP out a few businesses which I totally support, think it's great. Ranging from self-improvement seminars to banks, agencies and service providers. I would like to give these projects and entrepreneurs the chance to reach the community, to maximize their potential and for everyone to enjoy the RP. I have seen people being creative with marketing but I would like to suggest some form business index. Here people can promote their service, business or project, or vice versa the community can discover what's available in the city. The index wouldn't be used as an agenda but as advertisement. In light of the work on the chamber of commerce, supply and demand can be met there. I am more then willing to collect all the data and keep it up to date, put it in a fun, practical way available for the public. But I would like to keep it within Badlands and the tools at our disposal. My question first would be, are you guys interested?  If so read on. How do we avoid businesses that become inactive still being on the list? (I suggest a time frame of activity we set to players, once passed the list will be updated.) How do we collect the data, transfer it into an easy tool for it's users? (People can add their entry's either themselves or through a moderator) (We could have space allocated for it on the forum, with an easy list to go through, where you're always max two clicks away from the info you need.) How do we approach not so legal businesses? (Good question, to me it seems they do not have a place there. You would not find an illegal arm's dealer on Craigslist. But nothing is stopping you from putting a legal business up, that's actually a front for other activities.) If you need a service or product, find a contact, engage in some RP. Business owner's share your creativity with the community. And before we know it, an economy shapes itself, creating more possibilities for RP, personal achievement and fun making or spending money with others.
