Some people might have had the idea about makin a gim, joining a group and then be inactive for idk how long.. at some point there should be a decent amount of stuff in the bank which they actually could run away with, i would like to have any system to avoid stuff like this going to happend... To help get this done, i would like to hear whats others opinion in how this should be done..


The faster this is done, the less problems gonna happen within this area...

this is just for future problems

If ypu dont have a team you can trust i guess you made a poor choice for teammates.

I follow @Extremedanny his opinion. Also, if your group is inactive from the start, wouldn’t you just search/start a new group? In case you’re determinded to play that specific account, why would you put stuff in the shared bank if you’re actually playing solo? Just some thoughts!

Your sincerely,

some people play 2-3 guys in the group, people keep saying their gonna play, and at one point you achieved so much on the account that you kinda dont wanna start all over. i mean if people dont like this then i kinda dont wanna hear complains in the future about gims took all the stuff in shared bank and transfered to main account, i really don't see why we gonna risk it.. but just my opinion just as you have yours

I agree with what was said above, but having a system that prevents scams will be bring more security to the server and to the players. I am staying neutral for now.

I don't support this, people shouldn't just team with random people they've just met. They should be forming teams who are competent to stop people from leaving them early on in the game etc.

I've started over because my team quit. I'm now playing on account @Livo and starting again. That's just the risk with GIM

If you’re skeptical about joining a group, I’d go solo. No rush to find a team. Neutral.

I agree with everyone else for the most part, with group ironmen people really need to wait to find the right team and not rush into things with people they have never even spoke to before, there's no time limit on finding a group for a reason and people seem to ignore that.

 

But getting to the suggestion.. You've got the idea of security on banks, great.. But do you have an actual idea on how this system would work?

Would inactive accounts get locked out from access to the group bank? Would the rest of the team have to allow them access?

 

It would be interesting to see your ideas on what kind of security you'd like to see.

 

Neutral on this, I don't think it's needed at all but wouldn't be a bad thing if something like this happened. As long as the system in place isn't a flawed one.

Like others have said if you don’t trust your teammates going into it then you’re better off just playing one of the other types of solo Ironman builds rather than playing GIM.

I think you should just choose your teammates for GIM carefully and play with those you can truly trust wouldn't make sense, if you play with people who you cannot trust.
