I never mentioned anything about legally or otherwise, its not my concern really, I play for myself and by myself and it just isn't enough to keep up unfortunately

But I must beg to differ, how could more naq possibly be a bad thing

I couldn't even save up enough through weapons banking to buy the next AC level and it was only (only, lol) 2.5 trillion...
Ah well no matter, Congrats HE and Hippy, Owned and Vendetta

Looking forward to next era and everything that it brings with it

Boy, a too large bank, now that is a problem I would love to have to 'deal' with for a wave... HAHAHA
Why not do like we do with UP and tie the minimum starting bank size each wave somehow to the largest starting returning player's bank size??
(OK, got my spit shield out if this is somehow already the case... Go ahead, holler at me for being stupid!!

)
Since the bank size/UP thing seems to be debated over and over as such an advantage, this would be one way to sorta even/adjust/equalize the playing field proportionally at the start of each wave, allow the $$ supporters (like me, I have made a few just because of the bank size advantage and NAQ infusion, well, because I am a lazy turd sometimes...). But by scaling the starting bank sizes based upon the largest existing bank size this would be sort of like a sliding scale of bank equalizing, accounting for $$ 'inflation' of long time players banks, w/o negating the natural advantage they(me) should have by helping to support the game servers.
Just a thought, I don't have many serious ones...

Ideas?
Edit: Oh yeah, to stay on Thread topic, Hippy should keep the win, until proven a "cheater" as defined by the rules we all play by, within the ethical standards we all pout about here in the Forums... Seems to me he has only out-smarted us on the edge of agreed upon ethical borders, maybe not heroic, but still eligible for victory, nonetheless.

I must say, That sounds like a GREAT idea to me affy, The "bank size is percentage equalized to that of the largest in the game" sounds pretty fair to me.
Or perhaps even, if you have donated in main, you should get some sort of percentage increase in quantum, because its the same servers, and I have donated a few times in main, but since Q resets every 3 months, at the time it didn't appear to be a good investment of my limited funds.
Im not ruling out ever donating in Q though, most likely when I have the funds to spare I will donate a few times, mostly just for the bank increase

Oh and keeping on topic, as this is turning into a "What can we do to make the game more fair" thread, I don't mind Hippy at all, Ive chatted with him a few times through PM and have found him to be very down to earth and friendly, and not above speaking to n00bs like myself, and above all, I've found him to be very fair, I don't think that he would do anything to blatantly cheat, it is as has been said, a stretching (perhaps to the limits) of the rules that exist.
Unrelated to hippy though, Multi accounts, Ghost accounts to be used for saving ones AT's and farming purposes only, and accounts that different people make purely to feed another, even if they are not entirely against said 'rules' they create an unfair advantage and should be more then frowned upon...

All you had to say is that my Bank starting size idea sucked... HAHA
I guess if it was THAT bad an idea though, maybe we should close this thread, no sense hashing out the topic if it is not going the way as originally intended?
