House Payment!

House Payment!
I thought of this simple idea that could help reduce lag.

The reason I thought of this idea is because many people just build big pointless bases just to store a couple simple items and to have a bed, which is overall just creating lag for players with lower quality computers making it hard to play which can be unfair since not everyone has a lot of money but just want to have as much fun as you do.

The only good reasons you really need a base is to have a shop/kidnapper hut or to store more than 3+ good items otherwise what is the point of storing 3 or less good items in a base creating lag for other players?

And well obviously this idea could help reduce lag for players that have trouble playing the game so it can give everyone a fair chance to play with out lag!

How it would work:
A player would have to put a metal sign down saying their name. (Right next to the entrance door)
After they would have to do /pay house
That command will take 500 bamboo out of their balance and make all their houses valid for the next 2 days then after 2 days the player will have to pay another 500 to make the house valid for another 2 days.
They can do /check house
To see if their house(s) are still valid and will not be removed.
Any staff (Trail Moderator, Moderator, Super Moderator, Admin) can do /check houses
Which will give them a list of people that have made their houses valid within 48 hours.
If the staff member has found a base with out a sign or the base has expired the staff member may put down a sign saying they have 24 hours to make the base valid or it will be removed in the next 24 hours.

EXAMPLE:
You have 24 hours to make this base valid or it will be removed [02/12/16] -subzoniz
The staff member has to put their name at the end of the sign and the date the sign was put down, if the staff member has said they did not put the sign down any staff member may remove the sign.
If a staff member see's the sign the next day they may remove the base completely if the base was not made valid.
(Before they remove the base they MUST check if the player has made it valid)

RULES: (These are just examples you don't actually have to use these)
Another player CANNOT put a sign down saying someone else's name so the players base will be deleted.
If someone caught doing that, it will count as Fail RP and the player caught may be banned up to 1 day for it.
-
If a player has not made the base valid a staff member can put down a sign, "You have 24 hours to remove this base or it will be removed. [02/12/16] -subzoniz
(Staff member has to say the date and their name at the end if the staff member said they did not place the sign it can be removed by any other staff member)

Extra info:
The way it works might be too confusing but it is the best I could think of so if the admins think of a better way they can use that instead.
This took me a long time so I hope it is just enough to pass and become an actual part of the game.

Ok would be cool but... say if someone made a bandit base in the woods and didnt have a sign... Its a bandit base there for it really cant be removed unless someone raids it or it was there for a long time... Second thing what if someone was on vacation how would they pay for the house? And so there will it be destroyed?

We can't force people to pay for bases...
Think about the new players who can't afford anything but need a base to store items and then they can focus on getting a stable amount of money.

Toxic for the vacation one you could do /pay house 2 which will double it and do 4 days and take out 1000 bamboo same with 3 but 6 days and 1500 bamboo.

Agent what will the new players have that is so valuable it needs to be stored?
They might get lucky and get a good gun or two but they could probably keep that on character and try get clothes and a decent backpack. Otherwise I don't see what is so valuable they need to build a base and you start off with 1000 bamboo which is perfect since it will only take 500 bamboo and they have 2 days to get more money ect.
