Hi!

Lately I was pondering on some ideas. The first was an Alliance Tax Rate change option. In my dreams the allaince holder corp (appropriate member with at least directo rights as it would be in any corp) should be able to change the tax rate Alliance wise to the desired ammount, when setting it to 0% the individual corp rates would apply. I know many would oppose this idea but at many cases it could have been handy in the past.

The second idea is when ever you reinforce some structure would be nice if you could right click it and add to the corporation/allaince calendar. Than it would be possible to pull it through the API to create nice and lovely timer boards etc :)

Feel free to boo or love on this silly little topic, but please keep the trolls of. :)

I have no problem with alliances having their own tax rate in addition to the corp's tax rate. Having it override or replace the corp tax rate however would be dumb.

2nd idea is fine, but possibly unnecessary. If you RF something and add the timer to the calendar, it would be available anyway.

Never forget.

For the 2nd part what I meant is to be able to rightclick on tje fr timer on the given structure and have an option to add it to the calendar. Yeah I know it is lazyness, but wold be awsome.

About alliance tax rates, it shouldn't override the corp tax rate for sure. But even so, I don't like the idea. The way I see things, an alliance is a collection of corporations, just the same way a corporation is a collection of pilots. Pilots contribute to their corporation's wealth via the corp tax rate, but I don't see why they would have to contribute directly to their alliance's wallet aswell. This should be done on a corp level, not on a member level. In other words, an alliance tax rate should take a % of its corporations income, not its members. Like, if my corp has a 10% tax and my alliance 50%, if I kill a 1mil bounty rat, I get 900k. My corp gets 100k but have to give 50k to alliance. The player doesn't get taxed twice, his corp gets taxed on its own tax.A mechanic like that would make more sense to me, but I'm not sure it's of any use really.

The tax idea came to my mind if there is no other way to make yoer corps g9 and participate in anything. I know it is drastic but sometimes it is needed. But ofcI understan the otjer side also.

If you need the ability to set alliance-wide 100% tax "to make yoer corps g9 and participate in anything" than you're a ****** alliance and no amount of alliance tax tools will save you.
