[Suggestion] Coven Bidding

This was an idea that I had while thinking of ways to improve the Coven that I'm currently in.

This is where, if someone wishes to sell a Coven, it'd go a "Coven Bidding" page where all the Covens are up for sale would go, here, members, and Coven leaders would be able to bid/buy a Coven. Once a Coven has been put up for sale on the "bidding" page, the leader of the Coven would be able to chose whether to leave the weapons in there, leave the current members in there, and leave the vials in there. Once he/she has done this, they would then set a price for the bidding to start at, and a buy now price.

Once a Coven has bought the Covens weapons, armour, vials and members would then be transferred over to the new Coven if bought buy one and the bought Coven would be under the leaders management, or the member buying it would become leader automatically.

If it has been bought by a Coven, the leader could then select whether it uses both Coven forums, or merge them into one, this could also work with members, vials, armour, and weapons if the leader wants it like that. They could also select what members could see into which forum so staff in the Coven would have more power to use.

I know this sounds idiotic but I think it's quite good. :q

I really like this idea. Maybe add a counter as well and if a coven doesn't get sold within that time frame they have to wait x amount of days before they can auction it again?

I was meant to add that in. :D

I like the idea, I have just a few questions

So basically the Leader/Owner of "Coven A" decides to sell their coven, on the "Coven Bidding" page a few options come up to determine whether certain things get sold with the coven or, I assume, redistributed back to the members or what not (needs to be fair so it doesn't cause issues) right?

After that it goes up in the market to be sold, is it auctioned on a time limit?
Can only Current coven leaders bid, or can members as well?
Can members with access to Coven treasury (including or limited to the leader) bid from Coven funds?
Can a user with no coven bid? (So they become the new leader?)

Then if "Coven B" bought it, all of the extra stuff for the "Coven A" gets merged into "Coven B", weapons, armor, vials, money, members, etc. Does Coven Blood get combined? As in does "Coven B" get all of "Coven A"s exp?

That would be the general way it works, yes. :P

After it's been decided, it would go up for auction for 'x' number of days, if it's not sold within that time limit, the leader of that Coven can put it up again and again until it has been sold.

The idea that I had was so that either Coven leaders, or members who aren't in a Coven could bid on said Coven being sold.

If the leader has access to their Coven treasury, then I'm sure that would be okay as they are the leader of their Coven.

The user with no Coven could bid if they had the money for it.

The blood I wasn't entirely sure about, everyone would have mixed opinions on this, my opinion would be yes, but only a certain percentage of that.


It's a complicated idea to be honest. :D
