Welcome to the Community Forums!
This is where you will be able to post your idea for new communities and other members will be able to express their interest in the idea. When posting a new community idea think of it as posting a constitution and business proposal mixed into one. You are allowed to amend your original posting as members question certain positions or as your idea develops further, but here are some basics you might consider including in your original post to help build interest:
- Where is your ideal community located?
- Do you already own the land that you plan to establish this community on? Will people be required to "buy into" the community? What are they guaranteed for buying into it? If you don't already own the land, how will it be financed?
- What principles are central to you community?
- How will your community be governed? Will all members be able to make decisions directly? Will members elect a council or a single leader?
- How self-sufficient do you intend to be?
- Is your community intended to have any interaction with the outside, for example to trade/make money, or will you strive to be completely isolated?
- Do you intend for your community to make use of modern commodities (electricity, computers, etc.) or is your intention to maintain only post-modern technology?
- How many people do you intend for your community to contain?
- What "laws" govern membership in your community? What is the punishment for breaking these laws?
These are just some suggestions, please don't feel limited by it. Include as much or as little as you'd like and encourage others to ask questions about your community so that you can further refine your idea.
