Beren Hurin The Vanguardians 1308	Posted - 2013.08.30 14:29:00 - [1] - Quote Anyone have any plans about how they will use the new tax system? Who plans on going the 'minimalist' route as a non-PC corp and taxing nothing? Who is setting up related corps to manage a few different tax tiers? I'd especially be interested to hear if anyone plans on setting a tax higher than 15% but then trying to pay out some nice incentive rewards for performance and dedication. I think doing something like an 18%-20% tax, and then saying, "We will track your performance over time, you register for one of our 4 different teams and you could potentially get a pretty good reward for your efforts." Team leaders then track on their own leaderboards, the performance of players over time, and then pay-out based on what they see. Players would then compete for the highest performance for the end-of-week rewards, thus leading to more participation and more taxes.

Halador Osiris Dead Six Initiative Lokun Listamenn 622	Posted - 2013.08.30 14:32:00 - [3] - Quote 18%-20% = empty corp. Anything over 15% sounds extreme to me, and even 15% sounds high. I'm betting most corps will have a tax of 2-10%, but it's highly dependent on if they have a strong EVE side. EVE will always take precedent over DUST, as there is a LOT more money changing hands.

I plan on doing 10% for my corp, and then dropping it down as we build a nest solid nest egg. Don't plan on going lower then 5%.
Chunky Munkey Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 1300	Posted - 2013.08.30 14:56:00 - [5] - Quote A feeder corp that doesn't take part in PC should be taxed for training services. The PC corps see their benefits in the dedication of their players, not the money they earn.
Blazin Dank 420 Special Task Group 15	Posted - 2013.08.30 15:07:00 - [6] - Quote 5-8% to help fund players wanting to spec into dropships, tanks, etc. Also planning to reward directors, squad leaders, etc, etc. I see the tax as a way for corps to start giving back to their members.

You have to explain clearly the point of the tax and promote whatever service that is justifying it.

I agree. And this transactional relationship will go a long way toward establishing a culture and community among corp members. The thing with vehicle drivers is that, if I ran a corp, I wouldn't want too many constantly asking for isk. It's mostly on them to figure out the ways to not be operating at a loss all of the time.
Arkena Wyrnspire Turalyon 514 2835	Posted - 2013.08.30 15:11:00 - [9] - Quote Mine will be going 5% to help fund the HAV users, dropship pilots, that kind of thing.
Rynoceros Rise of Old Dudes 600	Posted - 2013.08.30 15:59:00 - [10] - Quote Rise of Old Dudes will not operate a tax system, as each player should be proven to be financially stable and self-sufficient. There are no Corporation operating costs (due to current lack of PC involvement) to offset, which would be the only reason to impose a fee to squad with some cool MFs.

Anarchide Greedy Bastards 534	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:06:00 - [11] - Quote I guess it will be set 0% for Greedy Bastards.
Thor Odinson42 Molon Labe. RISE of LEGION 1078	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:16:00 - [12] - Quote I think it depends on the corp and whether the players are comfortable with the direction the corp is going. Ours will be at 5%. It's not going to bloat the wallet by any means but it will help fund wars. Wars are expensive. We've talked about having contests on certain days when we are all queing into battles together, just for fun.
Roy Ventus Foxhound Corporation General Tso's Alliance 446	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:27:00 - [13] - Quote Up to the players in Foxhound. Won't do anything that they feel hurts them. Imo, 15%-30% would be the right range.
DAMIOS82 Unkn0wn Killers 38	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:29:00 - [14] - Quote Not sure for our corp, but the best would be 10%. If the average player earns 100.000-200.000 per match (10% beeing 10.000/20.000 tax) and they play an average of 50 matches a week. The corp would earn 500.000-1.000.000 per player. 100 members in one corp, could generate 100 mil per week. That would give the corp more then enough to do PC, support any players and support in vehicles when needed.

We have similar reasons for not implementing a tax on our members. When corp features are added we'll open up discussion again on a corp tax.
Hellkeizer The Avutora Complex 35	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:39:00 - [16] - Quote My tax rate will be between 1-5% or a decimal number, but I don't think I can
Thumb Green Novashift 355	Posted - 2013.08.30 16:39:00 - [17] - Quote I plan on keeping it at 0%.
