I hate waiting for this crap, hurry up and decide how to use it or let alliance leaders use it as they see fit, as either a taxation system to buy upgrades or help members rebuilid after a war/skirmish/random massing, or come up with the damn upgrade already. Had this bank for months, and haven't been able to do a damn thing with it, its quite the annoyance to have something that you can't use.

well since its a "cost" associated with alliance protection, you may never get it,,,, but i agree with just removing the number if its not going to be used.


You should express your concerns to jason at the admin meet.

I would if I was ever able to get on chat the same time they meet, but I'm usually either at school or working then :(

I think leave it, and allow access by the CO and 2IC, and also allow for a changing %. This would allow the alliance to choose an amount, which would be saved, and could be withdrawn to aid someone if they were massed

That's a good idea...

Sadly, doing this can and will be abused by most of the more powerful alliances to make a super player, or used in other ways to boost a person's stats to overcome opponents.

I really wish they did have a sarcasm tag sometimes, though I'll admit, it is hard to spot sarcasm in text :lol:
All in all, I think the changing of the % is the only part worth merit, because the rest is open for too much abuse

What's to stop such abuse atm? Why can't all of an alliance pool their income into a single account to take down all defences?

because the naq is untouchable presently

and admin stated that when the tax was started that he was leaning towards only allowing purchases of something with the naq, and planned to never allow ingame accounts to actually have access to it.

no matter how it is used, a smart player will figure out a way to abuse it. So release the update or cancel the bank entirely. I like I am Thor and Sarevok's suggestion.
