Discussion (Bikers Store)

Why a store? You can add it as a clothes suggestion.--Orange Talk 00:49, 6 October 2009 (BST)

While talking it over with a pal, one idea became several on a theme... seemed to be more tidy to roll them up into one suggestion than 16 or so separate ones. Less spam on the suggestion page, anyway. BTW, random aside - love the nav template code on your userpage. Inspired. :) - M arcusF ilby T 02:01, 6 October 2009 (BST)
Your missing the point. This is a clothing suggestion. Unless said location contained actual items, that's all it is.--Pesatyel 06:14, 6 October 2009 (BST)
Alright - debate over what type of suggestion this is aside for the time being, anyone have any suggestions as to its substance? - M arcusF ilby T 17:59, 6 October 2009 (BST)

Surely this is suggesting a unique location? Like the Goth Store? Rather than simply a clothing suggestion? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:09, 6 October 2009 (BST)

The store would only have clothing, hence it being a clothing suggestion. Lelouch vi Britannia is helping make Ridleybank green_ and gives Achievements 00:01, 7 October 2009 (BST)
I still think stores are votes under the main system. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 09:38, 7 October 2009 (BST)
That store had non-clothes items in it; whatever, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. Lelouch vi Britannia is helping make Ridleybank green_ and gives Achievements 18:09, 7 October 2009 (BST)

I like this, I see nothing wrong with adding a unique shop to every mall, it makes them unique. Although I would prefer it to be in Calvert Mall so you would have to journey away from where you currently are if you want the clothing (assuming you're near the malls you suggested) like every one else :-). Also, remove the military (camouflage/army surplus) clothes, military clothing can be found at the forts and gives people a reason to go to them as well as adding to their rarity. --Kamikazie-Bunny 14:38, 7 October 2009 (BST)

Make it a unique location and drop it in Calvert. That mall badly needs some love when it stands for more than 5 days. --Papa Johnny 17:36, 7 October 2009 (BST)

Well if there is still some problem of "where" it should be voted on, just throw in some items. I suggest the pipe and knife. Beyond that, I don't see anything wrong with the suggestion itself.--Pesatyel 05:28, 8 October 2009 (BST)

Great advice - thanks! - M arcusF ilby T 06:36, 8 October 2009 (BST)

White leather does exist. Why exclude it? --Explodey 19:07, 12 October 2009 (BST)

That's a question for Kevan, I just cribbed his list for leather colors. Why include it, though? Absenting purses, stripper cowgirls and Vegas performers I haven't seen a lot of commonly worn white leather in my days. -- M arcusF ilby T 17:47, 14 October 2009 (BST)
