Absolutely not. Everyone had a town in Gamma, maybe if it were raised to a price that the average player can't make in a few hours it would make sense. People already had towns in the early hours of TownsG, which tells you something about how easy it is to make money. -1, at least double the cost it takes to create towns.
"Definitely not towns should remain so expensive that nobody can afford them and there are no towns"
This is a biased position to list in a poll lol.
Anyway, I think the whole point of a towny server is to have GOOD towns with decent sized populations and not what we had before.... Where virtually anyone could afford a town and we had many different smaller towns with small populations. A town isn't meant to be something easy to obtain. The end goal of a towny server is to have your own town, they should not be handed out like hotcakes to appease children because they want their every whim catered to.
