Im happy to do that, but it would kill my chances of being able to play HMW as it would no longer by my energon that I was using, and im not that keen on that idea, at the end of the day, i'm still a player here.

If we can come up with a way of balancing it without breaking cardinal site rules and my HMW account then I'm interested.


Here's a solution. Ask 1-2 players to record the energon you have before you were turned into a bank. These players will also keep track of the energon you earned in the missions and arena. They will add the energon you earned for that day w/ the energon you had before being turned into a bank. They will subtract the energon you own w/ the total energon in your acct to determine the amount of energon that you will be able to spend.

lets say that your acct has a total of 100k of energon. 40k of which is from your hardwork, the remaining 60k is the deposited energon. This means that you can only spend until the total amount of energon in the acct is 60k.

Hmmm. Its an interesting thought, but as ill still be playing as WarPorn Industries, tracking my personal increase in energon would be nearly impossible.

Although there may be another option... The Quintessons account that was used in the days of old will still exist. I can see if OS will let me take that over. :???:


edit: still doesn't solve the 4-faction send/receive donations problem though.

Tracking his energon gain (and loss for CR time) would be a phenomenal effort - benefits do not necessarily outweigh the costs.

Using a secondary account is the optimum solution IF the cross-faction transfer can easily occur through some direct or moderator controlled function.

Like this for example? 8)

Still have plenty to sort out still, like the x-faction banking, but this is a great start.

Why not just ask if you can break the rule to make a non-fighting account because I'm sure he's gonna need the Quint one back at some point from some of the hints he had previously dropped. You could call it the first bank of cybertron.

Well, using the Quint account means that when it is used, it "gains interest" through it's battles. But until the cross-faction transfer is easily resolved creating any new accounts is futile. That's priority #1 for this subject in-my-opinion.

Thats pretty much the plan, good deduction.

Ironically, the problem is that I cant log out of WarPorn to log into and re-start the Quint team. :lol:

Anyone know how to get around the log-out bug? (I dont wanna lose my cookies as ill never find where ive hidden my por... er 'comics')

We're working on it.
We do have a plan B though - but it requires much more organisation.

Use a different browser. It's what I did so my girlfriend could sign up.
