Loaning UU PLEASE READ!!!

Note that the function is to GIVE - not lend. If you GIVE resources to someone, the game administration has NO ability to return them to you. Place your trust wisely, or risk learning one of the lessons the cosmos can teach the hard way.


I my opinion, although this does work, their are still some huge flaws in it. Mainly that people can scam you and Admin can't and won't do much abt it!
So... in the current system:
Player A (scammer) asks Player B (newly joined commander etc.) for UU. Player B may/may not give Player A the UU/miners!
in the new sytem (which i think would be better)
Player A (scammer) asks Player B (newly joined commander etc.) for UU. Player B decides to play it safe and not GIVE the UU but LOAN it!
So, what happens?
Say A asks for 1million UU from B ,obviously no1 is really willing to gamble on the trust of some1 they Don't Know!
instead B LOANs A the 1million UU/miners! These UU/miners are sent to A and are effectively LOCKED, they cannot be trained, transfered, sold on the market and if B decides to delete his account they are automatically returned to A!
When Player B sends A the UU their would be some sort of contract agreement (like in the market) requiring agreement from both players and also a set period for repayment!
So, if B sends 1million UU to A at an agreed contract of 2 days (perfect for PPT) then for 2 days these UU are kept in A's account but are LOCKED! If at the end of the 2 days (contracts limit) A has not returned the UU voluntarely then (a) they are automatically returned to B! and/or (b) their is a 24 hr period in which A is effectively placed on Vacation Mode (their could be a message saying {Currently Under Investigation for Possible Scamming} and if they are still NOT returned then they are automatically returned and B is compensated with the naq production on which he missed out and also given some UU from A's account (say 10kUU)!
What do u all think?

if you trade with people you take a risk, dont trade foolishly and you wont get scammed, i have never been scammed cause i only trade with people that are trustworthy. basically admin should leave things the way they are cause he should be consentrating on fixing up the acended server instead
If you listen to what i say you'll learn lots
if you argue with what i say you'll lose
if you disagree with what i say your an idiot

You didn't put a third option - "I don't like this idea" - lol - I think you need it!

If you were to loan the guy who lived next door $200 - is there actually a guarantee that you will get it back? No - you depend upon your trust of that person - as it is - and should remain - in the game.

Like I have said many times before - apologies for the caps....

SCAMMING IS NOT CHEATING.

Exactly - it's just part of the game - and, as in reality, you should trust who you trade with, or at least know a bit about them (Trade Feedback) before you trade with them.

you go into jail only if you don't have more power than the person who is supposed to put you into jail. the US does what it wants and why? because no one wants to be the one to start doing something against it and end up being the only one doing so.

You should be able to add another option by editing your first post - the options will be at the bottom.

I fthat doesn't work, contact one o fthe ods (not me though - I'll be gone for the next 48 hours).

In this game - we deliver our own justice to scammers - it is more fun!
