Create a new rule entitled “Striking” with the following text:
In today’s economy, many Employees are too lazy to work. Therefore, in an effort to increase productivity, whenever an Employee goes idle because they have not posted an entry or comment in the last seven days, this is known as going On Strike. Whenever an Employee goes On Strike, any player may transfer 2 SP from the Government to that Employee’s most recent Employer, as compensation.
This should compensate Employers when their employees go idle, so they don’t lose out. Also might bring in an interesting tactic of intentionally employing idle players, in order to get hand outs from the Government. It should be noted that Employees cease to be employable, when they become idle (as they are not Active Players), thus it does not matter that they are no longer tracked on the GNDT
ais523:
I rather like the minigame inherent in employing people who seem unlikely to idle. (And this proposal looks rather self-serving, because you just employed an obvious idler.)
