    Free Company Tithe/Taxes

    Did a quick search of the forums and I haven't found any topics or discussions about having a tithe/tax type of system for Free Companies.

    I for one would like to see something like this put in place for Free Companies in the form of a certain percentage of gill, set by the FC leaders, dropped from mobs, automatically sent to the FC bank.

    I'd like to know what others think, PROS/CONS, and other ideas on types of things taxed.

    I can't think of any Pros, all I've had is bad experiences when it comes to linkshell leaders and big shared banks.

    I won't paint every one of them with the same brush, I'm sure there are some super awesome ones out there but at the end of the day, I don't trust anyone as far as I can throw them.

    I've dealt with it a lot in XI and even in WoW - as soon as there's a good substantial amount of cash or items stashed away, some smart arse has to clean it out and screw over everyone else who worked so hard at saving up D:

    I really hope they don't implement something like this, I'd rather LS/FC leaders be like "Hey we need x_amount of gil for this" and then it actually gets spent on what they said instead of overflow gil going to fund Senor jackass's triple meld tier IV underpants><, then just have people trade them their donation.


    ...Sorry for being so negative XD totally not railing on you Cptn!

    Have a wonderful day!

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means

    It would be a phenomenal system in the right hands. How many Free Companies will be in the right hands?

    Very few.
