field lengths
i think it might be a good idea to increase the field lengths, its a bit of a pain being limited to training only 999 units at a time, only being able to send amounts less than 1 bil in naq, sab/recon limited to 99,999. im sure i have left out a few others aswell...

I don't see why. The game is growing as the amounts of everything increase. So it's only logical that the amounts you can buy/transfer increase as well. It's no longer uncommon for people to have tens of thousands of weapons, and training the men to arm them can become annoying. It's gonna have to happen sooner or later anyway.
As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.
If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

Huh? I can send more than 99,999 on sab/recon missions.

Increasing the amount on the training page is a great idea i agree, training only 999 does get annoying but as for the amoury being able too only sell 9999 at a time i think should not change for the reason being it is unfair for people who have already sold wepons for upgrades and have had too rush the process cause of large amount of naq out at one time.
Why should it be easy for anyone else too be able too sell and buy spy lvls in one go rather than having too sell in 2,3or4 lots of 9999 weapons at a time, a lot of us have been vunerable for this long period of selling and buying already and if we got attacked for having 1 or 2 bill naq out for this time it was good luck to whoever found it, everyone should have the same advantage of being able too attack someone while they are in the mad rush of selling loads of 9999 weapons at a time.
Doesnt everyone dream of being able to find a jackpot like that rather than 30-40 mill attacks all the time, if it were as easy as selling 999,999 at once rather than 9,999 at a time there would be no fun scanning hundreds of pages all the time in searc of that big attack cause youd know it would never happen.

Yeah, I suggested this and the vote is clearly in favor of doing it...

well once we reach a stage that we end up having to many zeros on everything then im sure it can be agreed to remove some of them. but for now we should have at least 2 extra spaces on most fields. obviously with all coverts grinding to a halt and many having over 100k now its difficult to recon/sab others. obviously people would lose more units but people will also make more. also for weapon selling/buying there is a limit, aswell as banking which is limited to just under 1bil per transaction.....
