I've been told by a GM that if any corporation in the alliance pays this bill, the auto pay checkbox will be unchecked on the executor corporation.

This makes zero sense to me, no action taken outside of the executor corporation should be able to impact any settings of the executor corporation. In what other situations can anyone toggle a checkbox without your direct action?

Does this mean executors now need to start checking monthly to see if they need to pay the bill in advance / recheck the box?

If you check a box it should stay checked.

Without even a notification? Talk about some easy trolling...

What's the point of the checkbox if you have to check it every month?

This would seem to defeat the entire point of the auto pay feature. It's not very automatic if so much as looking at it funny turns it off.

Another mindless, illogical setting brought to you by :CCP:


Fix now, CCP, stop letting GMs try to make logic out of something that makes no sense, this is obviously a bug and needs to be fixed now.

While we're here can we have a spacebook 'like' circlejerk? I've been conditioned to enjoy accumulating imaginary internet points.

You can tell GM's to get raped by a train right? That's what I would do. Then I would ask to speak to their manager.

This "intended behavior" is a bug, and no matter how straight of a face you keep while you repeat "intended behavior" it doesn't make it not a bug.

It needs to be fixed.

GMs should take action to ameliorate any inconvenience endured by those affected by this bug.
