Squad/Fraccion Treasury/Banks

[WarJack]

Hi all! o/

After seeing a couple of Hollows asking for money and some very generous players donating to the cause, I got to thinking about a way for players to donate money to a central location, like a Squad/Fracc or Race Treasury.

Simple enough idea;

For Squads/Fraccs;
The Seated players should have control over the output/distribution of money, but anyone could pay in.
An interesting idea would be allowing the Captain/Espada to control a tax percentage (say 1-10%) of each players total amount of money, daily/weekly/monthly, to keep the treasury topped up.

For Races;
This is another idea, over a larger scale (because of numbers). Essentially the same as above, except the Captains/Espada have control over the distribution, as well as the Captain-Commander/King.

Maybe the Captain-Commander/King would have ultimate control over the Squad/Fracc banks. Food for thought.

I know some hollows require money for moves, when entering new ranks for example.
I myself was loaned 5M from Jin (which I payed back recently). It would have been a lot easier for him to pull money from a treasury than his own personal money.

Anyway, that's enough text. Thoughts? Opinions? I'd love to hear your feedback. ^_^

I don't like the idea of any kind of tax because some players just don't want to give their hard earned money up. Instead of a tax there could be money earned from each successful patrol that goes into the Treasury but then it really isn't fair to allow one player to have control over where the money goes. It just seems like someone would abuse it and take all of the money for themselves.

I imagine any abuse would be reported to the correct authority, be it the Captain-Commander, King of HM or a Moderator. I doubt the offended party(s) would sit back and not speak up.

Thanks for your feedback! o/

And wbi no members can choise it put in money or no

Of course, members don't have to put money in the pot! It's just for the cause!

Some players are very generous and want their money to be put to good use, helping out players who aren't as well off.

With a banking system, it would be very easy for someone to request either a loan, or full on payment (probably via PM) to one of the seated players.
A treasury would utilise and make it giving of money more efficient, especially if you want to help your Squad/Fracc. ^_^

Well ok i dont have problem whit this

[Aless]

Better be squad/fracc bank for it race be lpt work for commander and king

I like the Squad/Fracc Bank idea too. Maybe the Captain-Commander/King of HM could oversee all of the treasuries? Be allowed to deposit/withdraw from any of them? Move money around between treasuries.
What level of access should they have?

[Aless]

Idk better be only for Espada and Captains and idk somting max numbers and send request?

[WarJack]

>Aless
I'm thinking;
Seated players have access to the treasury, if people are that paranoid about the mis-use of their money, how about Captains/Espadas have to confirm the transaction?
Max amount on the request sounds reasonable. Requests could either be made through PMs or maybe a simple 'Request Funds' option on the 'Treasury/Bank' page?

Thoughts?

[Aless]

Well yea tis be good max i meen how much money you can get

[straywolf174]

The idea itself seems really good. i cant think of anything truly wrong so..i mean abuse would not be tolerated obviously and gains from pvp and boss battles could even include this in it, a sort of "bank gain". So, i am all for this!!

[WarJack]

>Straywolf174
I'd like to think that abuse of the system wouldn't be tolerated.
I mean, if Seated players were the only players in a position to abuse the system, we should be fine. You've got to be pretty dedicated to get far into the game to hold those positions, right?

Any abuse should be easily spotted and dealt with, either internally (Squad/Fracc) or via a moderator, anyway.

Besides the fact that some players might abuse it, i really don't see anything bad about this idea.

Snip. Now, I honestly like this idea myself. What could be done that instead of there being a global tax, there could be interest: the amount of money stored by the players could grow larger over time. Let's say 1% per week for starters, increasable with squad/fracc/race points by 0.33% (for 300 points or something). Numbers are just placeholders, Lsm can math it right.

So basically, players would throw their gil money into this treasury so it accumulates more. Either for investment reasons, or for genuinely wanting to give some of it to newbies.

While scamming isn't actively combated at least in my memory (I could be wrong), I'd suggest this to be added under moderation so a person in charge of the treasury would not waddle off with their load.
