Deserted: New Suburb Tag for Suburb Page Usage

It is noted by most of the editors that regularily change the reports on the suburb page that there is currently an issue with the old "tags" for suburbs. Specifically because of the new ransack changes, it is quite possible for a suburb to be very dangerous for a single survivor to attempt to sleep in without there being many zombies about that would destroy a larger and more organized group.

Therefore I submit that there should be a new tag that is basicly between "Safe" and "Very Dangerous"; this tag should be "Ghost"; (background: #EEE; border:solid 2px #CCC;), it leaning neither towards the color of Green or Red, the latter being VD and the former Safe.

The "rules" of this new tag should be something of such: At least 2/3rds of the suburb's buildings either Empty of Survivors or Ransacked AND Having no zombie mobs of over 10 and no total zombies over 60

This allows for there to be a period in which "No One Lives Here" but can still be a "Great Place To Live". I believe that this tag should be named Deserted. It should be noted that this may still allows there to be a safe house or group of safehouses in the suburb but if the suburb is not secured and barricaded by survivors it cannot be called Safe no matter how few zombies there are.

  9. --Gage 04:24, 8 September 2006 (BST)
  10. Though I have my doubts about it, I do believe that it's a good fix for a large problem. Hopefully, it can help reports be a bit more... accurate, instead of having wars over a suburb being red or green. --Nomader TRCDC 04:44, 8 September 2006 (BST)

  20. Yes. Its much better than having to avoid all the red suburbs when in reality they are just devoid of human and zed (un)life--.--Mercsenary TRCDC 05:57, 9 September 2006 (BST)

  41. I like it, I'll vote yes, I only wish this idea was availble when I had first started to search for a new home for my group oh so many weeks ago --BigJD 19 September 2006
  42. Like it. That way, we can tell the difference between a truly safe town, or one that's just deserted. --Bluemofia 21:46, 20 September 2006 (BST)
  43. I like the Idea.. So Yea. Thats a Yes from ME.
  44. Yup, makes perfect sense.--Mr yawn 06:22, 21 September 2006 (BST)

Against

  1. Not a thrilling idea, all told...honestly, ghost-towns are as safe as can be to live in. Speaking as someone who's used one (prior to the evolution of Ransack, but that doesn't matter; no zeds, no ransack anyway). --Ivan Romanov 10:52, 8 September 2006 (BST)
    • Re: not necessarily. If the place is mostly devoid of survivors and 'cades, the moment even a small horde waltzes in you're dead meat. –Xoid STFU! 11:23, 8 September 2006 (BST)
      • or the moment a horde of survivors waltzes in, it's pretty much secure. Basically, you're saying "IF there were zombies there it would be dangerous". There aren't zombies there, though. --Kiki Lottaboobs 17:45, 10 September 2006 (BST)
        • It is also saying that IF there were survivors there, it would be safe. The two do not preclude one another. --Karlsbad 02:19, 11 September 2006 (BST)
          • The absence of zombies is pretty darn safe. I mean, if you are the only player in an entire suburb, what have you got to be worried about? Zombies are the primary cause of death in Malton - if they aren't present it stands to reason that the area is safer. --Kiki Lottaboobs 04:30, 16 September 2006 (BST)
  2. Sorry, but it's just more work to add to the suburb page. And I think the game should be played - not just read up on using the wiki. - David Malfisto 16:45, 9 September 2006 (BST)
  3. TheDictator 1042, 9 September 2006 (MST)
  4. Still not a good idea to add this. Anyone who ever posts this has got to be able to back up his claim with recon data on 2/3rds of the suburb. It's much easier and informative to just look at the number of zombies. --Kiki Lottaboobs 17:45, 10 September 2006 (BST)
    • I'm sorry that this idea doesn't fit to your standards of "easy", Ms. Lottaboobs.  ;^) --Karlsbad 02:19, 11 September 2006 (BST)
  5. Ditto Kiki's recon data claimage. (I'm not certain why the author is attempting to rebutt all no votes in the vote list instead of on the discussion page.) --Cartoonlad 06:27, 11 September 2006 (BST)
