Now comes the topic of tax. Tax is something that the Lord above you determines. He/she may determine how much to take from their vassals. The only person exempt from tax is the King. Tax can only be collected from human players and NPCs in your High Lordship. We understand that you could be earning insane amounts of money if we let you take from all the NPCs below you, but alas you can only take tax from NPCs in your high lordship and human players. So tax wisely or rebellion may be brewing.
You are expected to maintain the economy section of your Lordship's thread. The admins will regularly check these for any fraud. So do it properly. You simply keep it up to date whenever you can. You recieve taxes every Friday (out of game). So we suggest that you pay your taxes on that day as well to make sure you dont "forget" to pay your lord.
