Rules for The Island

    So, in my imagination, I am purchasing an Island and inviting people to create a community there. What rules would you make??
    Some of mine are:
    All children from birth (and new inhabitants) to be fingerprinted, have DNA taken and wear a microchipped piece of unremoveable jewellery. Hoping this reduces/eliminates crime

    If we do have crime, then the death penalty exists and pickpockets and thieves lose a finger per crime. Three fingers lost means expulsion from the island

    Bankers salaries are capped and nurses must earn a higher average wage than them.

    No religion on the island.

    Unemployed people must do 40 hours per week of community service until such time as they become employed.

    Mandatory random drug tests. People caught must leave the island.

    No Liverpool supporters.

    Any more suggestions welcome!!

    Are you creating an island or North Korea 2.0?

    Mine would be:

    Free doughnuts for all.

    If you commit a crime, no more doughnuts for you.

    Sounds wonderful, forgive me for leaving the Island for North Korea.

    Doughnuts would become the drug when we cant import enough dough from Afghanistan. Depending on the interest in my idea, we could possibly invade NK 1.0

    How about you head out to the Island, OP; get the community created, and then report back in, say, 40 years to let us know how it got on?

    Do you also plan to deflower girls when they come of age?


    ps: your island sucks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,730 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    If you wanted an island all to yourself, don't invite people to live there and make so many terrible rules that no one would want to live there. Just don't invite people. You'll save so much money which you could use to pay the nurses that won't be there.

    Or "don't want to live where I'm microchipped" and I don't support the death penalty, especially as it seems you're probably going to be the judge, jury and executioner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    40 hours community service. They wouldn't have a chance to find a job at that rate.

    :O


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr


    1) Bring all your money and resources

    2) **** off

    As a mod of Grand Theft Auto i think we all know the real reason ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB


    can we have the extermination camps on the eastern side of the island so that house prices arent affected?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭Plazaman


    As a Rastafarian Banker who supports Liverpool, I and my Rasta brothers will invade your island and easily take over as there seems to be a bunch of pussies as none of who know how to fight for fear of expulsion.

    No extermination camps. you get a dinghy, a paddle and 10 mins rowing time. If you are still in the snipers view at that point, the dinghy gets it

    curfews....i like it. No under 18's out after dark. The microchip will give the inhabitant an electric shock per minute they pass the curfew, of increasing voltage

    It will be interesting to see whether "Sh1thole Island" comes to anything, or whether it will always only be Geeby's dream.

    certainly sir. Please PM me for your information pack and watch/chip catalogue!

    I wondered why there was a lack of support. The workers aren't at home to support me, just the layabouts at this time

    Ye won't have to worry about overpopulation at least....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,923 ✭✭✭Playboy


    having children wouldnt be an automatic right and would need to be approved in the same way we approve people to adopt children. Too many lunatics in this world having children who cant take care of them and abuse them, the kids then grow up and do the same in an endless cycle of insanity.
