Temple and guild hall descriptions

Title: Temple and Guild Hall Descriptions

Summary: In addition to the public and internal boards that are uniform for all temples and guild halls, each guild hall would have a description for that specific structure. The description would be written by an elder of the guild/religeon or whomever built the temple/hall.

Benefits: Allows for more personalization and roleplay. Characters can become attached to particular temples/halls and invested in them.

Possible Downsides: It will be necessary to have a "no silly descriptions" rule on SMA game worlds and a prompt to report such names to the titans. Also it might be unrealistic if people can radically change the appearance of a guild house at will, so there should be a time limit between description changes unless you enlarge or shrink the guild house.

Totally second that. Perhaps you get to change the description "free of charge" after founding or upgrading/downsizing a religious construct, reflecting its modified image / initial establishment. Further changes may incur a gold penalty or be on a timer? ("You pay 50 gold to improve the temple, making it more aesthetically-pleasing to the faithful" or some such"

This account is no longer in use. New account vaguely under wraps.

Oh yeah if you increase or decrease the size you should get to automatically change the description. When the time limit is incurred you should get the prompt "wait X days or enlarge/shrink temple to change description".

Also descriptions which are contradictory to the temple size should be considered "silly" and should be dealt with if reported.
