So as I understand it, you pay a one-time cost of 150 FSP and your guild starts earning some % of its total gold balance every day, forever, passively. If that's correct then

NO

This is another one of those upgrades that will have people in an uproar over letting big guilds get richer and richer...and what's worse is a guild can avail of this upgrade without extra activity from its members. Unlike the status quo, where guilds rely on many members frequently contributing gold to the bank, with this upgrade a guild can grow rich even with just one or two members abusing it...deposit a mass of gold, pay a bunch of FSP, and sit back, you could end up earning so much gold that it offsets the costs of having all structures maxed plus netting you a profit. And you would be doing absolutely nothing to maintain it...it is not something every guild can abuse, only the rich ones, and therefore brings up the whole furor over widening the gap between haves and have nots, etc.

absolutely not. this would get out of hand SOOOO fast.

Keep in mind that HCS makes money off gold & FSP sinks, not gold & fsp generators. This could VERY easily make it so that guilds never had to rebuy more FSP for any of their members.

Absolutely terrible idea that will never happen.

If you complain about it being called a bank and not generating interest, then submit a suggestion to rename it to Guild Coffers, or Guild Chest or something similar

OKay, but there could be a max amount of gold gained per day. The interest rate would have to have a limit or the richest guild would just grow richer. As I said, it's a good idea but it definitly needs some tweaks. If this was implimented then the newer guilds might actually have a chance in attracting other players, hence giving more players guilds. (More of a reason to play FS because of interaction) Both good and bad things could come of this.


newer players shouldn't try starting guilds until they know what they're doing and can afford it.

There is no reason why new players need to have the same advantages lv 200 players have. It's not unfair, it's just part of the game.
