ok i have seen tis problem with myself only but i bet it happens alot to others aswell i had an officer with a high AS (army size) and defence which could deal with my high% if income but i couldnt give it to him becuase i have small officers who wont be bale to defened the naq so i thought it would be brill if we could have differnt percenage rates for each officer we have.

I dont know alot about codes and writeing them but i shouldnt thibk it to hard ad the working out would be easy say you have 3 officers and you naq is at 16bill per trun one officer will have 10% second 20% and third 30% workings

16,000,000,000 -
10% - 1,600,000,000
20% - 3,200,000,000
30% - 4,800,000,000

total that goes to officers - 9,600,000,000
this will be subtracted from your income and it will be 6,400,000,000

can i get some feedback on this idea like things wrong with it and also even if you have had this problem.

This has been suggested alot, and everytime people agree, Yet nothing happens.

i like the idea. i have some officers that just cant be active enough to defend my bonus wher was i have others who work hard to defend and build and could use/need the full 30% i fully back you

thanks does anyone go to the admin like talk to him or her and pass the ideas on to him/her

some people do go to the admin meets and suggest various topics to admin, but the last meet was canceled.. i think

Or the main idea was that you could have a set total percentage, in which you could divide as you please


Say 30% of your income

Officer 1 - 9%
Officer 2 - 5%
Officer 3 - 16%

All the while still getting the same UP bonus from them as now at 30%. But being able to divide it more fairly.

We have asked, and asked, and asked, and asked for this.


repeatedly


many times


over and over


to the point of being annoying


I think its a great idea, as it is now big players cant have officers, unless they are well established accounts that dont need commanders and its still economic suicide.

I hope it goes through this time.

Me too Perhaps during the next admin meet we can 'bribe' jason

I also agree with this idea. But it raises a concerns for me (already addressed partly by BERSERKER)

1. You'd have to cap the distribution to a limit. No more than 30% of your total income. Then you'd decide who got what percentage out of that 10-30%. Allowing players to give too much, or even all, of their income presents a bit of a loophole. In a war, instead of going onto crit/nox overnight and losing a chunk of income, you set officers in other time-zones - players active while you sleep to receive equal shares of 100% of your income. My next example would be even worse.

I've set up a hypothetical model. You have an alliance of ten members. Everyone in the alliance is both CO of one member and officer of another member of the alliance. When a member goes to sleep (or away from SGW for a period), they set 100% of their income to their "alliance officer", who is either on PPT - effectively pre-banking all of their income, online and able to use the income wisely or bank it; or also offline - meaning their 100% share would be passed down the "officer chain" until it reached an online or PPT player. Effectively, all of that alliance's resources are nearly untouchable.

It's a great idea though. I just thought I'd rant maniacally.

I agree with this,
all your officers should get 30% of your income, tops. Just the same as it is now.

Looks like my concerns have already been brought up.

It would definately be nice to change the % your officers recieve more accurately as some officers give more UP than others etc but never more than 30% TOTAL other wise it is far too abuseable.

My 2cents anyway.

Hehehe, if everyone's set to 100% it'd be an infinite loop - people's TIP would continue to grow until someone breaks the chain.

Perhaps, instead of a dropdown, a textbox? So you can determine, to the nearest integer, how much you want to give an officer naq.

Dropdown would be simpler, specially for the non-mathematically minded

I wouldnt mind seeing the % raised to many 40%, definitely not over 50% and posibly tie it to ascentions?

when you got a 50 bill income, it would be nice to spread it around, and incomes will continue to grow from now.
