Bank idea

I don't know if this has already been suggested (wouldn't be surprised if it has) but I was thinking, maybe we should have an interest rate on our bank space.
For example, we could earn 5% interest on what is in our bank at 23:59 game time each day.
What do you all think and again sorry if it has been already been suggested.

It as already been pur in place in another game, and it's a bad idea.
this will make big player with big bank able to make money without really playing.
5% woulg give 50 bill each 1 trill.
their is a lot's of player who have 10 trill bank... so 500 bill more.
Really bad idea

and people could just load their banks one time a day so it would be pointless. it would be better if it did like a tiny % each turn so they would pretty much have to keep the money in their but over all i dont like this idea either because big players can make huge amounts of naq without doing anything.

Whilst i would love the lots of free Naq for doing nothing, this would only benefit me and other large players, not the small players
Think of your 'bank' as less of a bank and more of a safe. It's somewhere to put something to keep it safe. Like a safe in your home because every account has one as should every house. You only get interest at a bank because they use your money and give you a cut of profits they make.

It has been suggested before (many, many times) - and always been kicked into touch!

A big NO!!!!!!! from me, bigger players just profiting and giving smaller players no chance to even get anywhere near the top players, is never a good idea, and would make the game worse not better.

out of interest what reason is there for this?
it would achieve nothing, the playing field would not be levelled or affected in any way.

you know i have to agree with the NO side because there would be no point in playing the game, i mean what is the point in attacking people for naquada if you are gaining much more from intrest

Presently 200 mill miners
But where I really did well was when PPT's added 10% to your bank size I pulled 2 ppts every week, even if i ppt and immediately broke it. I never realized it would get that big tho
