Withdrawal funds from banks closed due to inactivity.

We are always looking for ways to improve the game. In fact, since the beginning player suggestions had played a major part in game design.

We read all suggestions.

This should be changed/adjusted. Unless there are no funds in the bank, all players (with exception to an owner who is pirate) should be able to withdraw funds from a bank regardless of it being closed. Closed banks should only prevent new deposits and use of that Credit feature if the bank level is high enough.

How about a feature whereplayers could rob these banks . Like using a commandeer card for ships of inactive players.

I think banks aren't really that profitable for most people that own them and only start to generate returns after huge investments and lengths of time. Being able to rob them would deincentivize players to run banks at all.

A bank only makes money via Loans and if high enough in level, credit sales. A feature that attacks banks, even those closed or inactive would be a non starter without a rework of the entire banking apparatus.
