We are talking about two different games here - we should not be trying to make them the same, even in part, so let's keep them as they are.
I have the 20$ SS, but the prob you know is that when you send naq to them, it can be stolen, the point is sending the naq to their bank

Which.. makes it safer.. which is bad.
Dont you want ANY risk in thsi game at all? Your siggy would indicate your always on PPT and now you want to be able to give people things without any risk involved.
Whats wrong with this game

The sig is for Q

(If there was no limits I would be on PPT until next reset

)...
But the prob is not the risk thing, but that means you can't help your officers if they not online when you are (needs to be in same time area then) and those with low def have no chances to grow.
But I dislike the raid limit so I am not against risks

I'm sorry - but every other player in the game has ahd to endure the risk of naq being sent to them being stolen - the point is that you need to co-ordinate and plan your effort so that it is not stolen!!! But it sounds as thougth you want to give people something for nothing - an easy ride!!!

You missed my point entirely - which was that if someone without SS wanted to send naq to someone else - than the other person just needs to become their officer temporarily so that they may be sent naq from the 'commander vault'.
This could lead to a bypass of the trade system - i.e. someone without SS wants to buy UU from a player with SS. The player with SS becomes the other players officer so that they can be given naq from the commander vault, once the naq is received they then send the UU. This means there is little or NO risk - and could potentially kill the game (further).

I agree completely with Wolf, for once.
I don't like the idea because if you tax then what is the point of sending your income to them and then what do they get back for the UP that you get off them?
Even without the tax it is just too much like Chaos and it is too safe. What will happen to the hits of 20 billion against an unsuspecting foe? What will happen to alliance wars?
Leave main, main and chaos, chaos.

I like the idea of commander bank, so I could transfer naq more safely to officers... why not to enable that option for SS users only then? It's then not a problem and it does not harm usefulness of SS.

or make it so the commander couldn't deposit into the bank, so the naq would have to come from the officers, and if you gave that naq away, well your officers wouldn't be happy.
That's a suggestion, I voted yes, but now that i think about it, NO, even with my suggestion.

I think no

in that case - pass it to someone who you know will be able to pass it on to who you want to give it to! This game is as much about building trust and taking rsk as anything else!

Most of it is ok. Just no taxing officers -_-.
The bank should be able to be filled by the commander's naq when he/she manually puts naq into it. Whenever he/she so chooses, he/she can give the naq to one officer, two, officers, ect or all officers. The naq should be delivered to the officer's regular bank. The Commander should not however be able to remove the naq from his/her commander bank as it should be only for his/her officers. Perhaps uu and turns can also be put into the bank for the officers.
Furthermore, to heed with Wolf's arguements that it would make SS defunct, the minimum officer stay would be 3-5 days. And more then likely, people will still buy SS for the conveniance and efficency of it.

i suggested before about doing this with aliances like with atlantean wars, and eventualy the leader can purchase an alliance upgrade which would benefit everyone.
a bank which the entire aliance deposits into and only the leader can acess. and purchase new tech.
for example ''you alliance discoveres a planet in the galactic void beween galaxies, because it is unknown it increased your bank capacity by 20%'' for example.
or ''your alliance developes advanced cloning techniques adding 50UU per turn''
think about it, i personaly like this idea.
