well the plan would be that everyone builds in the sandbox area with the knowledge that their builds most likely will be deleted. It could be like the voxelbox guest build area. The buying of plots will appeal to users with more ambitious/long term projects.
Another option could be to have 2 worlds. One permenant creative world with no wipes, terrain, and no assigned plots. The other world could be either flat, or just terrain that is wiped every 2/3 weeks that could act as the trial sandbox. before people are allowed to buid in the permenant world, they have to prove themselves in the trial area. We would need a group of players to judge builds and pick which ones can be allowed to build in the permenant creative world. perhaps the architect group could do this? the reason I have kept away from this idea is that I didnt want to add more work for our OP/SOP.
