I agree wholeheartedly; that's why you don't see them in-game. Increased taxing or utility bills don't impact property value any either but are more of an artificial money sink, which doesn't help to resolve this hyperinflation issue that's perpetually plagued games. That's pretty literally how it used to be at the 3x MP+Furn cap. A property quite literally had a 'price can never exceed this' point through that.

I briefly looked through the old rule changelog, but there was a set rule on how property pricing could not exceed a certain percentage; it, by policy, prevented something like a 800% markup of MP + Furniture. I think it capped at 3x MP+Furniture, but I'm not 100% on that. It, effectively, was along the lines of the current property rules without the "6 months + : You can sell the house at any price you want." The 3x MP+Furniture cap was more than reasonable in my eyes and was quite effective at preventing absurd inflation of property values.. Frankly, there's no good reason to have it be uncapped, and if memory serves, this change in the regulation kinda came out of the blue blindsiding a lot of us that were staff. Not positive if I was PM at the time, but I'm pretty sure I was - This was a few years ago by now. There's no real "expenses" with home ownership here that would help keep values down. No need to replace appliances, no need to repair roofs, no need to repair anything that would otherwise ding a property's value. It's literally free money if you hold it for a bit. While I know PM does try to combat those that just bank properties with the intent of reselling after 6 months to roll in the dough, it still happens. People work around it by "living there" when it's something they know from the get-go that they'll try to spin for max bucks. You've seen this with a number of the Sandy Shores/countryside trailers, unfortunately - And there was a period of time where PM would try to rebuy these properties every time they were available on the script market to prevent this from reoccurring. Not sure if that's still being done.

Getting rid of the maximum property value cap was a mistake and you'll never convince me otherwise.

I preordered that game. I regretted every second of it.

$510,000

and a lot more common than people think

ultimate move: ban people who use tires fuck tires all my homes walk around

Forwarding this as an urgent bug.

Actually staring at a quote for one right now. In 2016, I was quoted about $13k for an ELSAG system. When the current alternative is 'none for you,' it's better than nothing and doing it that way has actually worked with no issues that I'm aware of in SD. They just don't want people to patrol with it on.

When I was in SD, LFM did approve the use of ALPR just to read license plates after a vehicle has been stopped. No other information other than the physical plate can be used. As soon as the plate is obtained, ALPR's gotta be turned off.

Sounds like SAPR is interested in this as well. Going to review with them, look at the HAPA, and go from there.

Property is no longer available. Notice to be issued once it is available.

So that happened before I requested a voluntary step-down to Lieutenant - It was not an IA Report that was leaked, but FD-to-FD correspondence that was forwarded to someone in SD. That was reviewed by LFM and found to not be an issue as any identifying information was redacted. @lambchops

On a serious note, should you encounter someone that is roleplaying to a seriously unrealistic degree and/or has an unrealistic character: If it's something urgent and immediate, /report in-game or file a forum report.

wait you're telling me that half of you goombahs don't have a notepad literally beside your computer with the scribblings of a schizo on it? no? ok fine add this in-game please

Offering buyout. (( As it is a multi-int apartment, calculated at $526,474 using (3xMP)+FURNITURE. ))

There are no plans to do this, and the odds of it happening are at 1%. Reference every other "But Bolingbroke!" thread that has ever existed for the reasons why.
