hmm some people like their money to be private :3 also it would be an effort to program (the /collect thing)

 

I like knowing that the amount of money I have is private, not known throughout the server.

 

yeah i dont really want people to know how much i have there should be a way to turn this on or off but it would also be usfull because u could go on the fourms well selling stuff and make shure the person has there money!

 

1. I don't support, would you want everyone to know your RL bank account balance? Perhaps give people the option of having their money displayed either as private, or public.
2. +1 I support this it would be a useful tool.
3. +1 This would be very useful, this would mean you can vote and receive ur cash even if the server is down.

 

Personally I would have to be against the sharing of your balance, at present I cannot give a solid explanation save for that in real life do you go about telling people the size of your bank account and how much money is in your wallet? No because it can lead to all sorts of issues. The /collect though is an interesting concept though.

 

I don't think everyone needs to know your balance.
As for #2 and 3 I think those are great ideas if it is possible.

 

I don't like the first idea...people would start hiding their money in trade signs (which is always a bad idea...). Theres not really a good reason for it and i don't want people looking at my balance.

Second and third ideas seem almost impossible to program...you would have to link the forums to the server in a way where both money accounts would be interconnecting.

But like trevalynfar said, /collect is an interesting concept...

 

No...
I dont want my balance displayed to the public.

And if people are very rich and people find out then that person may be continuously harrased for money and that is just not good.

I support sending money on the forums but this would I assume be very hard to implement

 

the money thing could be done with with a php plugin that allows php -> bukkit and bukkit -> php
and have it run command to send money but this still needs player online can test see if u can pay pplayer offline if so then it would work and be very easy to code . by having player a request player b to pay such amount player b then accepts request and pays player a can be done but a fair bit of work for andrew thats for sure

 

-1... if we did this the person with the most money would get spammed asking for money

 

You can do all that ingame, there would be issues to doing it like with the /collect function aswell where you would need to tie this website into the player data. It would also make for additional security risks where someone would only have to hack the website to really screw with the economy. I think it would be hard to do and maintain, while it might be good for some things the majority of this can be done in game anyways.

 

People could get the choice to show their balance, that would be cool.

 

People may not hack very often, but that doesn't mean you make it easier for them to really mess things up. Theres a line between putting a sign saying "don't grief" on your rule board, and putting a sign that says "don't grief" on a stack of diamonds in the middle of town.
