Hello, this is your friendly neighborhood merc Lugmos here. I wanted to strike a proposition with all of you forum goers. I want to see how much support I could gain here.
My idea was to create a bank, funded by me and possibly others, for you mercs. Now you are probably saying SCAM! at this moment, but in all honesty, what would I want with all of your ISK? I have allthe Sever BPOs and a Quafe, and about 45 million ISK currently in my account. I don't even run proto, and the only ISK sink I have is FW where I still don't use proto. So now that you have hopefully gotten past the scam mentality, here is my proposition:
-Mercs have the opportunity to make a 5% gain in ISK per week, in the form of interest, when placing an amount of 5,000,000 or less ISK as a donation to my corp, TBD, which will be the "bank" -This ISK will essentially be 'frozen', so it is advisable to put it in the bank only if your ISK is just sitting there
-Mercs will also be able to take a loan from the bank, with a pre determined amount. For larger amounts, there will be a marginally larger amount of interest, with the expectation that you will do something worthwhile, in the form of profit or fun, with the ISK. The baseline for any amount 5,000,000 and under is 5%.
There will be certain guidelines for making this work:
-No loans more than 5,000,000 will be established until the bank wallet is more than 100,000,000 -Due to the nature of my real life, transactions may only be made on the weekends (Saturday to Sunday, with Friday a maybe) -That being said, a thread, most likely in another section of the forums, will be made regarding transactions, where you can establish transactions for me to complete during the weekend.
Things that would make this a big hit: -Donations as kick starter would be much appreciated -An employee would be much appreciated, with high forum status/respect so as to prevent a scandalous situation from happening
Other things:
If this gets enough attention and support, the corp name/bank name will be posted below Also, I need a name for the bank, and an interest free loan of a few million might be on the best name Bank name: ________ Transaction Thread name and location will be posted below Thread:_______
Suggestions and concerns are also much apreciated

Banks in real life work because when they loan out money, they create it from nothing. They don't need to have anything actually exist to back up the currency, as it is based on nothing, but If people don't pay loans back with interest, then the bank can take things from them.
Your loan and interest system would be unenforceable and pointless.
If this game was fun, I wouldn't be playing it.

Your loan and interest system would be unenforceable and pointless. Or maybe, I am just trying to give back to the players in a nonprofit way. The point here isn't to make money, as real life banks are for. I just want to give back to the community that would like some more isk.

I don't see how this can work... because when it's come down to money you can't trust anyone. So what prevents someone to make 20 accounts get 5 to 10 (or more) millions ISK loans for each account and never pay back?
Or did I miss something?

I've actually seen this work. It's tricky, but it works. I'd offer to help with the banking, but I think everyone involved might lose their cool.

SCAM!!!!!! Sounds cool, I'd be willing to be the 'employee' but I don't have much (if any) reputation on the forums, but I don't think any scandalous will happen, also I may just give small sums at a time to help this (I never have much at one time, well I won't until the 1.9 update)

But any who, to answer everyone's questions, I could either edit the OP and underline the changes, or directly answer. Or both.

Its like trying to set up your own business in a communistic society. Everything is owned and sold by CCP, making the only possible investments either a player, in the form of a loan, or a more grand scheme, funding a PC match for a poor corp.

Also, just so that people know, my alts are Ultervilet Sunberns and Adjura Grajuski.
Also, if anyone doesn't trust me, when this is all set up and the corp is made, you can place an alt in the corp to moniter my actions if you think it necessary.

This can only work only if you loan people on these certain conditions:
2. kdr or higher
100,000 wp or higher
has a reference of someone who is notable and/or respected by community?
maybe the bigger the stats the higher the loan amount you can take?
being consistent and make bank records/transactions public on forums.
just some things to think about mate.
