Self decline

Not really a big deal but i think it would be good if the person who made the broker was able to decline aswell. Just a thought.

Re: Self decline

They cant really scam that way, as if they decline it they get nothing but what they put into it.

I like this idea of the user being able to decline it, many times ive seen someone post accepting brokers now, so i set one, and they don't log in for 2 days, or it auto expires....

Re: Self decline

why shouldn't this be added? it's very frustrating when you're in need of a resource such as turns and you set a broker with some1 like others have stated and they don't even log on again for a day or two

thats exactly why i suggested it. when im selling turns i like the broker to be accepted straight away so i look for ppl online, but sometimes they go offline as soon as i set the broker.

I dont see a reason why it wouldnt be put in. as far as i can see nothing bad would come of it, or could come of it.

Re: Self decline

Yes it would be a good thing to have but obviously admin don't want it in the game... Don't know why. You'll just have to be careful when you make a broker then I guess.

Re: Self decline

This is an old issue. It won't be added because of the ease in which it can be abused. People could abuse it as a temporary bank for storing naq, thus allowing them to safely store more naq than their private bank allows. It could also be used to exceed max AT storage.

Reasons like these are why it was decided long ago (by the game Admin) that it wouldn't be added.

Re: Self decline

I dont see how holding naq in a broker is really going to help, its just the same as sending it to a friend, as for the AT it wont let you go above the 10k limit no matter what, already been tried, even if i broker away 9k AT's someone cannot send me say 4k then the other person reject it, its been that way since admin changed it, unless a bug has recently popped up that has stopped it.

Re: Self decline

But - there is more risk in sending resources to a friend (whether by normal sending or broker), when there is no self-decline.

Implementing a self decline takes away the risk and does leave the broker, potentially, open to abuse.

It is not needed to improve the game, people simply want it as an added convenience to avoid a risk that can already be negated by properly arranging trades through increased communication.

Re: Self decline

It's very easy to store more naq then your bank can hold with no/minimal risk even if you don't have a friend to broker.
