Noob moment of the year

I recently killed my lifers, thus reducing my bank size (a side effect I inconveniently forgot) to a mere 208T. It was about 480T when I still had my lifers, so well, decent enough.

While farming, I hit, then bank. Almost on every hit, I bank. Now, I reached my 208T bank size, and did not realise I had. So I kept banking, and my naq kept disappearing. I was pretty golden with it. Now, turns out good pal Commander Vimes was pretending to be my bank.

A little over 6T lost. =D> Well spotted, CV. :P

Anyway.. covert 36, welcome to the realm of Juliette.

:smt058 Much appreciated, CV.
I noticed I had over a T out, checked my bank, 0 remaining space, saw I had a new message from you, repaired MS and weapons and bought my new covert level.

Amusing noob moment. :P

Re: Noob moment of the year

Bank sizes can still depend on miners/lifers, the update to next covert level cost only really counts when you have reasonably high levels, for accounts ascending or building up after ascension then it is very easy to still get your bank size from miners/lifers.

Still, a classic noob moment :smt081

Not sure if it was in that time ...
But they certainly still do and it is not a bug.
As with jules, would she sell her uus before she had gotten this level, she might have leaked naq too.

Lower covert levels only gives so much space.
Example above: lvl 35 was 208T .. I believe there are people with bank upgrades that far exceeded that space at that covert level.
And it happened to me too the other week, after I sold 300m uus my bank halfed xD
