Guild banks

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.

Guild banks

Postby Lod » Tue Nov 24, 2020 2:56 pm

I have found that guilds could benefit from having a bank of their own for the purpose of reimbursing members for voodoo used to help other members and to help financing projects in the interest of the guild. We have this already but at present managed by a member who now got inactive for unknown reasons. A big loss of funds for us if he does not return.
Such a guild bank should be managed by whomever is guildmaster or by the guildmaster appointed guild member. Access to that bank should change in the same manner as transfer of the guild. A page where the guildmaster can set diffrent appointments like bank manager and who takes over the guild if the guildmaster does go inactive for a set time should fix inactivity problems I belive. Especially in times like this with a rampant virus going around people might get too sick to play for a long time or even worse.

Sincerly

As most know this is not the first time this has been suggested. It is needed and I can see some cool stuff that can tie into a guild bank. Just search past suggestions and you’ll see

As Lodswe said, if the person who holds the guild money goes inactive (which is what has happened) then potentially hundreds of millions of gold coins are lost.

Can you have multiple managers for instance similar to country councils? Then you will have redundancy in case of unexpected inactivity.

Also can it be possible to store guild Voodoo for the same reasons.



Storing/Sharing guild Voodoo is not going to happen. That is DOA.

It sounds like you just need a better crew. Pirates have something similar, we call it a tribute :pirateflag

We are in a global pandemic. People can and will go inactive for health reasons related to the hellish nightmare that is COVID. That has nothing to do with how loyal someone is to playing the game. Even the most loyal players can get sick, become hospitalized or much worse.

This has been suggested multiple times, would be a great addition to the game.

There are benefits to having a Guild Treasury/Bank, but I do see potential issues with it. A lot of details would need to be worked out.
