i dont know where this post goes, so if a mod wants to move it i understand.
i'd like to see the options of 35% and 40% added for officer payouts.
it's just an option so nobody should really object (but i know the members, so i'm ready for any surprise... lol).

No, and I'll tell you why, it takes away to much of a Control, having an income is a blessing and a curse as you go to sleep you get farmed because yoru income is to high with this update your giving nearly half to your officers, also it's exploitable, sorry but thats how I feel...

How can you say also it's exploitable without saying why?

I do agree though, it gives you the option of lowering your income a bit too much... Put that on top of nox+critical and it almost garuntees that you won't be farmed for sure.

But on the other side of the coin... you do lose the income. So to be honest, I don't see any reason why it couldn't be worked in..

becuse you lose the income doesn't matter Zero, think about it and exploitable, well thats easy you give your officer more INcome and he gives you more UP like thats wat having multiple people under you as a CO is for lol plus you as an officer wouldn't get the choice having half of yoru raw UP woudl sukc being taken away from ya know? and the CO may not evne know it was affecting htem...

my Farms will dry up :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


nooooo can't happen.

people will make huge incomes and on PPT put at 10 and off PPT to stop being farmed 45% WTH so those 50bil incoems will turn into 25-27bil naaa doesn't work that way lol its just not right :smt047 :smt047 :smt047

nom nom nom here comes the lovely income into me bank per turn.

anyways why would u want more if u went up to 45%-60% to officers the catch should be min of 25-30 instead of it staying at 10 .

sure... my reasons for requesting this are self-motivated, i.e., to reduce farming when i'm asleep or at work.
but the officers do benefit from the increased income.

Let me get this straight, you don't approve because your farms for 16 turns will loose some small portion of Naq?

Lets take an account that gets 50B/turn.
30% to officers gives 35B/turn
Realm alert takes 50% for 17.5B (used to be 70% for 10.5B)
Nox takes 10% so 15.75B (9.45B)
And your complaining about loosing another 10%? So 1.57B/turn (0.945B)

So over the night, this change would reduce your farmed value by 25B... Which is 1 hit. Or with the old values 15B naq...

Now remember, that's for 50B/turn, which means they need 416M miners/lifers alone... For people that produce 30B/turn (lets say on average) that's over night about 15B...

not everyone farms for the same amount my minimum is 25bil+ so that would just kill my farm basically i wouldn't be able to turn farm that guy ;)

Did you actually read what i said? You would miss out on 1 turn farm over 8 hours... As there is a 25B naq difference over the 16 turns...

He's income would only be 15.75B/turn, so you wouldn't be able to turn farm them anyway :?
