Increase new player retention and integration into the server.​

The people of the Commonwealth of Redmont, through their elected Representatives in the Congress and the force of law ordained to that Congress by the people through the constitution, do hereby enact the following provisions into law:

1 - Short Title and Enactment

(4) This Act has been co-sponsored by: 1950Minecrafter, bezzergeezer

2 - Reasons

1. One of the biggest problems on the server currently is low to non-existent new player retention. Failure to retain new players has stunted our economy. Forced multiple companies to function without the adequate level of employees and required many citizens to perform multiple jobs reducing quality and quantity of products and services.
2. This lack of player retention stems from the failure to inform and introduce the values of our server during the initial tutorial, as well as a lack of incentive for new players to take the time to go through the tutorial to understand how to start their journey into Redmont.
3. New player retention will boost not only our server numbers but increase the stability of the economy and provide new passionate workers to injured and dying industries.

3 - New Player Start up Fund

1. A budget of $15,000 replenished bi-monthly from federal funds is delegated to the New Player start up Fund. These funds will be dedicated to providing opportunities and advancements for new players upon their arrival to Redmont.
2. The budget may be increased or decreased by vote in the house or representatives.
3. This fund is broken down into two sections, The New Player Retention Advancement Fund (NPRAF) and the New Player Incentive Fund (NPIF)
4. The NPRAF will be provided 50 percent of the total budget.
5. The NPIF will be provided 50 percent of the total budget.
6. Once either fund is completely depleted. The New Player Retention Task Force may request more funds from the Speaker of the House at their own discretion.
