Forts
 

How about making Temp forts
u could build them in the middle of an island or something or put em right on the edge and have docks
For the forts
you would need stone, iron, planks
i cant think of more its to early in the morning :D
These forts would be destroyed if 5 or me people dont go in and move about in it, use the facilities and stuff

We can already build forts.

anywhere? like on the main island?

Actually no houses/forts are allowed to be built on main at all. If you want to build a house or a little fort around a house then join a kingdom. I seen you on there starting up GK Navy. Just a small insight. There are 5 kingdoms who have more members and a bigger navy. I suggest you join one of those if you want to be in the navy. A good place to start out is CP. They are legendary for ship battles.

i know but im not much of a RPer :)
i would join em
if i could act like a pirate lol
im more of a Era Slang person :D

i think you should be able to put a small fort on a plot of land
and if u built it on a small stream then u could put ur boats inside it or if u put it on the waters edge u could build temporary Ports

Again you can once you join a kingdom and have a house plot. and each kingdom has a harbor for boats but other then that your ship is at risk if you leave it somewhere. Your best off just cutting out this stress and joining a kingdom..lol.

Its easy to learn to rp just ask someone.

Your idea may have some merit to it but will probably get a no as any obstruction in the water can stop you dead and trap you. So while its a good idea its got a huge downfall.

Okay maybe not the streams
and i know join a kingdom and i can have a fort
but i ment if we could just find a plot of land anywhere we could build stuff and buy things for shops ....
if we could do that it would be great
but i shall try and get into a Kingdom

Why?

for fun,
i knew i forgot something
Guild wars
We could build forts and fight against eachother in our guilds, then take eachother by sea!

All of that is just what a kingdoms is.

I think you should need some pillows, blankets, and maybe a couple of cardboard boxes. ;)

-.- thats generally called a kingdom dude.

yeah but what if u dont wanna be in a kingdom,they dont like u?

Well, if you just started playing I really doubt any kingdoms will dislike you unless you made them mad already..

Not many people want to join Kingdoms, I know I didn't when I first started.

If you're going to try to be start your own 'kingdom' or 'army', I have one thing to say: Don't be like GRN.

Grn?

If everyone could just go around building forts and harbours the islands will be swamped with them.

That would lag like hell though if that was allowed.

If you don't want to be in a kingdom then I suggest that you don't start a war against any. They have a tendancy to crush new people who try to re-enact GRN. Anyways to make a cannonball you need to goto a kingdom island.

You can generally get into a kingdom as long as you prove your worth their time so don't give up.

Good point
Okay what if u had to be level 10 or over
to make these forts, and u were only allowed to make one..

Here's the main problem with your idea...blocking...if your on a ship and hit anything on the water your boat gets stuck...now if you have your ship in one of these things by the beach or something there is a good chance you could get stuck or find you don't have a ship. Plus not to mention all the crap the beachs would be littered with. Just stop on the idea and join a kingdom already.

I't only take's 1 hour to get to level 10 so that won't take the idea any better.

Yeah, level 10 is nothing. It take no time. And even level 110 can be done in less than a week if you tried hard enough.

Edit'd so it's more realistic

Its ok as long as you can read you know what he means.

Make forts at various spots that kingdoms can battle over for control. Maintaining control over these forts give the kingdoms small kickbacks (plat, or coal, or maybe they have a mine inside? Don't know but something.)

See it makes sense for kingdoms but he's talking if your not and building anywhere.

Yeah... my bad, I meant to add if something like this was added maybe more people would be inclined to join a kingdom.
