Well after only a couple of weeks Emperor Max has already made HUGE progress into the restoration of the more damaged areas of Daenshore's Southern edge. OK... granted desmonster had been busy in this region for months... but Max's restore skills are a force of nature and have brought the project along at speeds never seen before. Thanks also to Runner and everyone else who has helped.

HIRING:
We still have a way to go so the Elves of Suvador are paying any creatures who wish to help in this ongoing project. Apply here in this thread (see below under "TO APPLY").
The rates are approx to 150 Regals (15 silver) per heavily griefed 100 x 100 block area
For example - if you restore a 50 block x 100 block area you earn 75 Regals (7.5 Silver)
Why approx? some areas are more damaged that others. Rates for each plot are shown below under "TO APPLY".
THE RULES/REQUIREMENTS:
1 - Job first - payment when done to satisfactory level - I've been burnt too many times by people not finishing the job - you don't get paid in advance at your IRL job so why should you get 50% up front here? No scamming as all evidence is here in this thread so you are protected (as am I).
2 - 'Re-skin' the land. In other words make a single block skin of dirt over any holes. The grass will naturally spread into any new dirt areas you make.
3 - De-cobble - any stupid pillars of cobble/dirt/gravel etc in your plot - take em down
4 - Basic tidy - you'll know when you see it - a half chopped tree or some other lazy crap someone has left around - fix it.
5 - Reforest (Birch and Oak only please) - spend five or ten minutes FARMING saplings. What do I mean by "farming"? Don't just run around chopping all of the trees we've already planted:
6 - If you have any bonemeal left over run around at the end and make some grass/flowers.
7 - You bring/gather the materials. Get your dirt from underground only - don't 'scalp' the surrounding topsoil to find dirt. I've spent months restoring the area (if you scalp I'll know - it's called Hawkeye tool) If you scalp you PAY ME DOUBLE - those are the terms you are accepting.
8 - Not just 'flat land' please - use the natural ups and downs to inspire some undulations/hills.
9 - Don't bother trying to "fill" all of the holes - takes too long - just put a single block thick 'skin' of dirt over it all.
10 - If you chop a tree wait for ALL of the saplings to drop and plant replacements and then some - again - hawkeye tool - I wasn't born yesterday and I will inspect the progress.
11 - You have two weeks - no extensions - if you fail to finish you may be required to full refund although consideration of work completed may be given at my discretion.
12 - Existing structures - some of the old townsites are faction land that has long since been abandoned. But before you go and tear it down, make minor repairs (or turn it into a ruin) use the Hawkeye Tool ( type /he tool ) to see if was built recently. If there are deadbolt signs around and they are still active try to contact their owner).

- Chop two or three Oak (or birch trees) - wood leaves and all
- You should now have enough saplings to replace the initial two or three trees
- You should also now have enough saplings to plant an EXTRA two or three trees.
- Take these extra saplings away to the area you're restoring, plant & bonemeal them.
- Chop them to get even more saplings and so on until you have half a stack or more
- Get planting
6 - If you have any bonemeal left over run around at the end and make some grass/flowers.
