I was thinking of reviving the SEN Bank in the store for SEN v5. Now, this was done before (and learned from), so there would be serious restrictions.
Revive the SEN Bank? Any input?
- 5% deposit fee. There might be a 5% withdrawal fee as well, but definitely one on deposit.
- Interest would be 1% per day.
- Interest would be limited, maybe to 10 or 20 minerals per day.

Yah, I joined before it existed, but it seems balanced the way you have it.
It should have adjustable interest rates too. Something like this:
<500=5%
<1000=3%
<2000=2%
<2500=1%
>2500=.5%

Hey, I have a screwy idea..
Make a max insurable deposit of say 1000 minerals, cap interest gain of maybe 0.5% per day at 40, and once you bring back Armies, people can try to rob the bank

I like the scabale interest rate. Also, if there's a 5% deposit fee and a max interest of 20 minerals, it's going to take a while to earn back any considerable deposit.
I like dumbducky's idea:
Also, there is no point to the bank if you don't bring back Armies.
HINT HINT!

We're talking about v5, dear. Remember how minerals will actually have some use in SENv5?
I liked the idea of the bank when we first had it, so I support it again. I dunno if I like the idea of a fee when you withdrawl money, though. I suppose I don't mind it when you deposit, but for some reason 5% seems like too much.

Gwahahaha! I love that idea...rob the bank...that would be a mini game and a half to play

Yes, but if there's an interest limit, there should be a deposit/withdrawal limit.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mini Moose 2707 on 2006-10-11 at 18:54:49
Why does having an interest limit warrant a withdrawal or deposit limit?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (SEN)Dante50 on 2006-10-11 at 18:56:28
Yeah, bring back the bank! But I had an idea (don't know if it would work or not but...) that maybe you could take out loans or whatnot from 1-50 minerals, and in a week, you have to pay it back. If you don't, a function or a mod takes away all of your minerals that you gain from posts or games until the debt is repaid. I don't know anything about PHP and stuff, so i have no idea if that would work.

It might not warrant it, but what's the point of placing over a certain number of minerals into the bank and paying a deposit fee for them if you're not going to get increased interest. It would work either way, but I think it's more fair if they go perfectly in proportion.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by dumbducky on 2006-10-11 at 19:40:06
Well, it keeps it balanced so members with 3000 minerals don't get 150 minerals of interest because it is 5%. And you shouldn't have to pay a larger percent of minerals just because you have less when you have to deal with the deposit fee.
