Bursar
Bursars are one thing that I find is missing form the game that I think would really help and not take much effort. In Shadowbane Bursars required the building of a church or a cathedral, some type of special building meant just for the bursar. A bursar should link an entire account to one storage space and should be accessible from any bursar on the map. Not a ton of space maybe 9-12 spots.

Re: Bursar
Uhm, just what are you suggesting?A bursar is a senior professional financial administrator in a school or university.
Bursa is a Latin word meaning "purse". Billing of student tuition accounts are the responsibility of the Office of the Bursar. This involves sending bills and making payment plans with the ultimate goal of getting the student accounts paid off. Bursars are not necessarily involved in the financial aid process.

Re: Bursar
Seems he wants something like a bank, that is accessable to every character on that account through these 'burser' banks.

I think he is suggesting a bank system like in WoW (bursar = bancier). Problem is that this is mostly unrealistic because the item would need some kind of teleport. I m fine with storage options though travel weariness could be a bit lower.

that is the exact definition. notice the AS AT A not IN A or pay attention to the A TREASURER would you like the definition of treasurer too?
Origin:
1400–50; < ML bursārius a purse-keeper, treasurer
purse (pûrs)
n.
1. A woman's bag for carrying keys, a wallet, and other personal items; a handbag.
2.A small bag or pouch for carrying money.
3. Something that resembles a bag or pouch.
4. Available wealth or resources; money.
5.A sum of money collected as a present or offered as a prize.
If your going to spend your time attempting to correct someone at least do it right.
I am suggestion a BURSAR for the land of Haven and Hearth
but if you really want I can dumb it down for you..... I would like a banker ... hows that quickness
I hate it when people try to make other look dumb and themselves smarter than they really are.

Re: Bursar
No, I honestly didn't know what bursar is, and that's what I found on Wikipedia.
But seriously, teleporting stuff around? That's not very fun. I'd rather have merchant ships, caravans and stuff like that.

Re: Bursar
Im with potjeh on this one. It really doesnt fit the atmosphere of this game.
I really gotta ask... Why did you get so pissed off from him not understanding what a burser is? Not like its a commonly used word.
