What it is:

• A command such as /towntransfer <player name> which the current mayor could run to give mayorship to that player. The original mayor would lose their mayorship of that town, and it would be transferred to the new mayor.

 

Reasons for:

• Inactive mayors can give another player their town to take over
• You could sell your town to another player

 

Reasons against:

• If someone gains access to your account, they could transfer your towns away
• People might scam or trick people into transferring ownership

Sim, it's been asked forever. Whoever doesn't agree with this should give a very good explanation why not.

• If someone gains access to your account, they could transfer your towns away

A way to fix this is simple, can have it where you have a password on the town. (But, you can choose whether or not to have one) If you forget it, well you are out of luck.

I can see no justifiable reason to not be able to transfer towns.

[SnakeZXZ]

I don't see how this would really affect anyone who doesn't like the idea. I'm all for it

[Thanatos Hades]

The reasons to allow this out weigh the reasons not to. HOWEVER the reasons not to are very heavy reasons.

 

There definitely needs to be some security or backup features that can't be abused but can be used if problems occur. Any ideas???

I'm all in, especially because it was one of my suggestions in the suggestion box heheh.

The idea of transferring town ownership is old. It was suggested a long time ago mainly due to the amount of ghost towns.

Since I always have my say in these things legally or not I would agree with Zooty.  It should not be a fast transaction like trade.  But in all my answer is yes they should be transferable.

Yes has won!

[RobbyZ]

Wow, looks like it's Yes by a landslide.  Expect this in next build!

[swaggerton]

just say no

You should make it with some king of GUI instead of UI, and it should have a warning like "/sellallinv" does.

Time to pop out the Champagne!

If a person is dumb enough to fall for that then it's his or her own fault but they can report it and if it was deemed a scam then something might be able to be done but really. If you own a town you should know better than to be that stupid.

[Trololo]

Easy way to fix. WARNING WARNING WARNING YOU WILL LOSE YOUR TOWN FOREVER IF YOU SAY THIS say /towntransfer scammer yes   if you are sure

 

Something like that, but better.

Also, if someone doesn't notice it says /townTRANSFER <name>, he/she shouldn't have a town!
