Why are you all preaching for a map with more shops and areas to build shops when we canny fill the current server with shops.

In my experience, every time I come on at least the two shops in Main Street are filled, and most times at least one shop on Northview. What I will agree with is that the shop on Northview is constantly changing owners due most likely to nobody coming to the RP taking place inside it. I would argue that the reason for this, however, is not because there are too many shops, it's because the shops on Northview are located too far away from Main Street, they're hidden two streets behind, and therefore nobody bothers to visit them. 

Now with Pines, you have a central 'Main Street' with almost all of the shops on it, bar one that is located just around the corner. I believe that this layout will mean that anyone who wishes to build in a shop (which actually seems to be quite a lot of people) will have their build noticed due to all the shops being in the same, easily reachable central area, therefore meaning that more people will have the motivation to build in them and consequently more shops will be filled:


As for the offices, I have a feeling that the reason they are so unused on V5P is because they're just too big. The Minnesota Building comprises of way too many rooms, and therefore it takes a LOT of props to build a good dupe inside it, and the office behind it (can't remember it's name) suffers the same problem along with being extremely dark and having no windows (meaning that once you're inside the office, seeing other players is very unlikely)

Contrastingly, Pines City has a much smaller office building which comprises of two large offices with floor to ceiling windows. This means that if you're inside the building, you can look out of the window and see people below you running around, something that subconsciously should make the player inside the offices feel that the city is inhabited, because whatever happens, there are always people milling around on Main Street.
