Should POTCO Have A Isle Just For Players To Make Shops?

Should POTCO have an island just made for players to make houses, stores, taverns, ect. I think they should, but only for level 35+, and it would still cost 50 grand. That way fewer would make them, thus making it less common :-)
Anyone agree?

[Sorry, forgot to make it a poll 0_o]

These would make up for space taken by the new rocks in the ocean and it would be cool

If they do that. Then what about plundering their house if you win you can take one piece from their house. If you get killed you pay them five thousand pieces of gold. lol Like in PvP.

And what would you do with your shop/house/store/tavern?

There is no trade system in the game, and without that, there doesn't seem to be much of a point to them...

Plus, I'm not sure that Disney, or the players REALLY want to deal with the downsides of implementing an user-run economic system.

This falls along the lines of creating a user based economy which I believe is not in the game for a reason, as most games with such economies, change the focus of the game from playing pirates and having fun, to he who has the most gold wins. In reference to anothers comment on the matter, it sounds to me like just trying to make the regular POTCO world "PVP". These are separate by design, and need to remain so.
That being said, Im against it....

It sounds neat to have stuff like that, but the reprecussions overall, take away from the overall game experience.

I think they need to put time and development into expanding the POTCO world, more quests, (another story quest chapter is desperately needed), PVP improvements, etc.

I would like to see this in ships, and being able to maybe do some designing in that area. I would have to say I would be against this as well as just based on the economy as posted above. I also have been elsewhere, and owned like half the best things on the server, whats the point?

I do think perhaps something like trading your pink rare shirt in for maybe something more suitable would be nice. Maybe something to do with our full list of treasure, in trade.

With the bugs running all over the place, it would become who can basically macro the most money to out-do others.
