    2. "Duty and administration" fee for trading goods of base value with a minimum of 100k gralats on buyers.

    3. Area Rent for Pkers near bases during forts.

    4. Land Lease fee for basing gangs with more than 5k hours of 5k gralats for holding a second base.

    As you can see, there aren't any taxes here. It's all administration fee.
    Lyk, players simply don't want to play a game that punishes them for being on top. I know you wont see it as a punishment, but thats what it is to them. We need to find ways to encourage players to base and PK that don't involve them having to pay to win. Players already spend too much for little reward. Physically separating top tier gangs from the rest is probably the best solution we have at the moment, as it allows the lower tier gangs to compete amongst themselves before challenging the top tier gangs. im not sure why the basing fort hasn't been implented but i really hope that its still going ahead.

    Okay, you're the only one that thinks these are favourable.

    Please stop.
    (I know it sounds ignorant but it's kinda annoying how people keep flagging you down and you're still persistent on pushing these agendas.)

    Rewards > punishments

    Maybe give a bonus to newer gangs when they base?

    I agree with Casey. I think the base fortress will solve many problems and bring competition back into the game. I just hope it's still being developed.

    ok after much thinking this is what I'm suggesting

    LYK Foundation Central Basing Fund

    Basically, gangs with at least 3k hours and are in the leaderboards for base hours for the week will receive a weekly payout called the LYK Foundation Weekly Premium.
    Payout is calculated as follows: (total hours in a week (168 hours) - hours that the gang has attained for the week )x 10


    The amount will be given to each member. Which means that the more the gang bases, the less they get.
    If a gang gets 100 hours for the week (suggesting high level of dominance over a base), the payout they get per member will be (168-100)x10 = 680 gralats. However, if a gang bases for 2 hours and made it into the leaderboards, the payout they get is (168-2)x110 = 1660 gralats. So gang leaders will have to decide how they want to conduct their business to get a good balance between getting base hours and getting the LYK payout. Do note that they have to be in the leaderboards to receive this payout, so it discourages gangs from slacking too much to get the money but it also discourages against monopoly.

    Of course, the Lyk foundation payout will be funded by Era Bank, not me

    Is this guy a troller or what

    - - - Updated - - -

    If you know that 5 hours per week for a gang who doesnt 'peace' any gang is alrdy very hard? Your foundation does not help any new gangs. Basing is made for strategy and skill not money game.

    The thing we need is to prevent a very experienced gang like obsidian nbk m2s from making new gang tag. There is a lot of new gangs but they are all branches of experienced gangs. Multiple gang tags problably is one of the main reason which lead to monopolizing bases.

    No one likes your idea. Why do you continue to push it? Are you some kid who took Eco-101 at a community college that thinks he's smart now?

    Well, I'm not obligated. I had no intentions to argue with you. Am I not free to express my thoughts? Lol?
