Soft Wipe/Reset for 1.1

Before you downvote to oblivion please take a moment to consider:

Why is this needed?

   ⦁ Various exploits with great impact on cash & material, some of which will persist until 1.0

   ⦁ The legacy of some individuals in positions of power or influence that have since been removed for acting in bad faith

   ⦁ Long-time players (like myself) have characters that benefited from game mechanics that were very unbalanced at the time
   

   ⦁ Characters that were able to easily establish themselves at the top due to the lack of opposition from a criminal justice system that remains under construction

   ⦁ Access to various resources or other opportunities that have been temporarily disabled or put on hold until 1.0

   ⦁ Restructuring of most Whitelist jobs & services

What is a Soft Wipe?

Let each character keep up to 2 vehicles (plus the Xmas Lego cars), and 2 properties (residential or commercial/business).

Whitelist jobs and ranks would be preserved along with whatever licenses your character holds.

All other items are wiped and all bank accounts capped at $50k maximum.

Along with this, D8 will conduct an audit for unused properties as well as any that do not conform to established rules for "zoning" (for example, homes with trailer interiors) or that may have been wrongfully sold at well under market value by rogue agents.

When:

After any major bugs or other economy/balance problems in 1.0 have been corrected (iow release 1.1)

I think this will create fresh & fair start for all players that is crucial for the long-term health of the server. I know the plan has been to avoid this but I believe it will be necessary eventually and this seems like an ideal time to take that step as we move forward.

As a bonus, I think this will encourage players to stop hoarding stuff and put things in play or make other moves to create some fun RP while we wait for 1.0

Thanks for reading.
