This is Stu's proposal for the pawn shop. He has stepped down from XXX porn shop and Canning productions. My only qualm is the absence of bail bonds, which was my main push (as well as a place to get guns) in deciding to make a pawn shop type place a CD Official business. The new HPD makes bail bonds very simple to integrate in a business, but I would like to hear the community's thoughts on this as well. Perhaps, another established business can take that on.

PROPOSAL BY: Stu Canning

GROUP NAME: 24 Hour Pawn Shop

TYPE: Pawn Shop

SLURL: Teleport

BACKSTORY: There have been quite a few applications for a pawn shop to be run in Hathian. This is yet another. I can't say that all of my ideas are original. Obviously, the plan for a pawn shop is to make money off of smart buying decisions. Need a ring for your beloved? Come buy one! Need a few extra bucks for a hit of smack? Come sell your mommas stereo system. I think this will help tie in a lot of the underground market that is around Hathian. If you need it moved, this is the place to do it. But I think it's much more than just the black market - if you will. The opportunity exists for some plain, simple, fun RP. This should be seen as a light hearted RP venue, rather than some of the more serious ones. There absolutely should be some darkness surrounding it - though it should be downplayed on the store front.

UNIQUE: Obviously, this is unlike an business in Hathian. The opportunity to buy/sell/trade items isn't really an option yet. This business front would bring this to the forefront. I think it would be an asset to the RP and help further create a submersive environment for everyone to play in.

EXP:I've learned from prior groups on what works and what doesn't work. This is something that I'm more interested in doing now days. This type of element of RP is what interests me now.

IDEAS:This will help "meld" worlds between players. It's more of a backdrop for the players than a way to push RP. I think having a 24 hour pawn shop will resonate and identify with brand new players and the veteran players and would, within reason, help bring folks together there both ICly and OCCly.

OTHER:Being in an unrestricted zone - I think this would be a great place for all to come and spend some time to cultivate need/want/desire countered with the will/money to purchase said item. I could see a bit of "Needful Things" being incorporated...

Community: Please provide general feedback on this proposal, including comments, suggestions for improvement, advice based on your experience, or simply to show support if you like this proposal.

Proposal Author: Please use this thread and respond w/ any revisions to your proposal that you'd like to make based on community feedback you see here (highly recommended). Depending on community and staff review, this proposal may or may not proceed to trial stage.
