I know this has been suggested before, but I believe that was on the Jolt forums in a single post within a massive thread so I thought I'd poke this idea out a bit and give it a few more idea variations. I'll put it in the form of different options for this idea just because it's easier for me to remember what I said.]
Option 1:
Make turning influence off something that can only be done by the founder when the region is created; meaning that once it has been chosen it can never be undone. I think this might work if we also make having a founder or not a feature in the game.
Option 2:
Make turning off influence in a region something that can only be done by a WA Delegate (although it would take masses of influence to do, ironic!), this might be interesting in the military side of things. However it would mean the person who this might affect the most has the final say over it.
Option 3:
This one is ofcourse make it available to the founder and the WA Delegate if the rights for WA Control are turned on.
Option 4:
This one was a spur of the moment thing, so I didn't think it out hugely but it might be another interesting thing that could either happen instead of the ones above or as an extra feature. It would be for the Founder/WA Delegate (with control on) to be able to wipe all influence, so everyone in the region starts again from the bottom at the next update. I'd like this in one of the larger regions I am in. This would include the Delegate and founder.
Option 5:
None of them.
I put up a mini poll, I know they mean nothing but I would like to se public opinion!
