You can also go to work by foot instead of by car, bus, train, whatever. Would safe you lots of money, but hey - of course it will take you longer, you would have to get up earlier in the morning in order to not come late etc. etc. etc... And even then, who built the streets, you are walking for free? Which wallet size did finance that one? Questions over questions...

Calm yourself down dude can't you tell a joke when you see one? LOL

In EvE online e.g. one of the biggest and strongest clans at all have been infiltrated over an amount of time of apprx. 2 years, until the infiltrator got enough trust to achieve an officer status within the clan and got access to critical clan functions. He abused that to destroy the clan more or less. It's kind of terrorism or sabotage like it happens in real world, played in a virtual game. Stealing of influence e.g. already happened in game, its the same with that. Same in RL, if you give your bank account data or credit card info to everyone, you don't know well enough, it's your own fault, if your bank account is empty suddenly. Of course if you are the victim, you don't like it, but from an objective point of view I find such things in online games interesting. And of course the game running company must not interfere in such matters - its just real deep role playing

The RL arguement lacks validity becuse there is no in game mechnic to discourage the abuse of the trust of your fellow Soc mates. In real life if you were to steal from a business or other people you risk prosecution. The soc wallet and soon the soc wharehouses are very vulnerable. There is no balence in the risk to gain. There is no Spy vrs Spy way to get your money back or catch the theif in action.

That you find cheating people out of the full use of there soc wallet interesting only encourages the abuse. You make it sound like there is some challenge to it. All you need is a lack of self-respect. There is nothing deep about it, no intrige, no 007 here

What is interesting is that you say that game running company must not interfere in such matters. IMO you sound like you might be inclind to do this if you knew the game running company wouldn't interfere.

At the end of the day its just the ruining of a useful perk of being in a Society. And that hurts the game.

It would change my opinion on this if the game running company would say that they feel it is an important part of the realism. But I do not think they feel this way.

Can we have an update from the GM's on how this is going? I am really looking forward to utilizing these ingame and would love to know when this build will be pushed to Live servers. I was told late April that they were meant to be pushed to servers, and its getting very close ;P

Any news is good news!
