Towns

Towns are the core of Townscraft and are where a vast majority of the server's playerbase resides. Please only edit these articles if you are the town's mayor or have been in the town for most of it's lifespan.
==Towns==
A town is a collection of houses, farms, shops etc. that must have the following things:
#3 active citizens for at least two weeks before becoming official
#Active citizens must contribute to the town somehow in order to be considered active. For example, contributing to a build, helping gather materials, building a farm, etc.
#At least 3 builds must be in progress or finished by the time you apply for official status.
Official towns will have a wiki page, discord role, and in-game prefix with colors of their choice.
Towns used to have another definition, which is as follows :
#Some form of territory
#Rules that are on the wiki, and preferably an imgur link to some screenshots of the town
# It must be able to hold an active population of around 5 for at least a week
# It can have a set style/palette (optional, but advised)
== Ruins==
A ruin is a town with no more active citizens left. A town is declared a ruin when either every citizen goes inactive/revokes their citizenship, or if the town leader declares it a ruin. They are to be treated like historical sites and are not to be tampered with, even by former citizens. Former citizens can move their items out though. A ruin can become a town again if the former leader says so and gets enough citizens, or if at least 3 people are interested in reviving the town and have the former leader's permission. These should not be confused with dwarf towns, which are towns that have shrunk to have less than 3 active players, but still have 1-2 people left living in it.
==Historical towns==
Historical Towns are officially closed for new members and can’t be claimed. Some, like Bilgewater, still have shops open.
== Settlements ==
A settlement is basically a wannabe town. Some places are founded with the intent of them becoming a town, but either they haven't met the criteria just yet, or have become inactive. Some settlements on this list may be active, but the wide majority are not. This list is not complete, as it is difficult to define a settlement or just to list them all.
