Our original set up required players to put vendors on their homes. Some people ignored that, so we reviewed the decision and are making the following changes. If you are not in compliance we will remove your vendor.
;How many traders can I have
# Vendors MUST be on YOUR clan land OR your hub land. They can not be set randomly in the world.
* Each clan can have 1 trader. (Clans are limited to six people)
# Vendors MUST be set near a merchant stall (small or large) and on the HUB DOCK (area) only! We will grow the docks as needed, but only 1 vendor near the small stalls, or 2 near a large stall. If there is already an admin vendor or NPC there they COUNT! Don't crowd the docks and turn it into a mall.
* Settlements can have 2 traders. (If there is a need for more then two, players should place their traders under their private clan name.)
# Each clan may have only ONE player vendor in the hub. Large clans have enough draw to bring players to them.
; Where can we place our traders?
# The vendor MUST have its clan name in it's name so staff can easily identify it.
* Vendors can only be placed at the Fair Grounds.
* Empty traders. Misplaced traders. Or any other trader that would make any reasonable role-player wince and roll their eyes. Will be moved or deleted.

There is a clan for the fair grounds and you can join this clan by speaking with the overseer at the caravan master's tent.

* Only '''staff-approved''' players may place a vendor in a public building. (A building without a vendor ''may be'' available for "ownership".
* Your trader can not be in the Fair Grounds Clan - if you do this, anyone who joins the Fair Ground clan like you just did will be able to edit your trader and just take your things.
* All other vendors must go down at the docks in aesthetically pleasing spots near merchandise decor.
* Stay within the white area highlighted on the map.
* OR in your own home. (Vendors placed in private homes should be indoors or set up near an appropriately decorated merchant "spot". This means don't just plunk him down by himself along the side of the road - he will "quit" your service.)
