Or best idea would be bring back additional bank size with each PPT bought with cash or not...

Quite frankly it didn't anymore for a long time (for free PPTs at least). Now, does it again, I don't know really.

Yes but hold up, you gotta look at this from a new players point of view,
Ive been playing this game over 2 years now, as have many, and my bank size is a fairly decent 30tril + lets say, but when i played everytime you used PPT that was like 10% bank size increase back then, and you figure alot of us had this feature for over 2 years before admin changed it, now as far as i know going on PPT does not increase your bank size at all.........you need to use market turns for that,
So right there older players have the advantage.....maybe if admin changed it on the market that the market turn gave 50% or 100% boost to bank size instead of 10% these smaller guys could hold there own more,
It wouldnt really affect the bigger guy that much, as lets face it, we can store alot of naq anyway, and would prob spend it before saving 200trill LOL.

a smaller player has less use for a bigger bank, when i was small I had to resort to Weapon banking, they should feel lucky they can use a friends bank, I mean id be glad to bank any new players naqudah for them free of charge so long as they let me know when theyd need it back.

It just makes things needlessly more difficult. honestly is a 1 trill min bank size to much to ask?Then i don't have to bug my friend every time i want to buy uu, increase my covert, get one of those expensive mother ship upgrades. But if that's to much i think you should at least increase the bonus from the market. Without the ppt bonus anymore ill never be able to reach the bank sizes of the older players.

Growing pains are part of the game, and come from growing.
Keep in mind, if you make things too easy in the beginning, things become pointless quickly.
Bank capasities are so high now they are rather useless. I doubt I'll ever seen mine full again as long as I play.
Just consider the long term.

3 trillion isn't very practical, especially if your saving for a large Naq for UU trade with someone for a good rate.
And upgrading to increase bank size? Is that not a bit counter-productive?
Need to get more space, so keep spending more and more Naq to do it?

I was right, in past you were able to calculate how much PPTs you did if yo remember, as it added a certain percent of your natural bankspace, and you could see how PPTs you did. This formula is somewhere on these forums. But now we can't calculate it anymore since that stupid add bank space with 1 MT is here. So PPTs don't add it anymore, unless it's SS or USS buying.

And there's no way I'm paying $$$ to go from 3trillion to where i am now
If this was even going to be considered, then it'd be a base case of 3 trillion, and then ADD the capacity you now have on top of that. Anything else would be no good for anyone over 50mill army
