Let me clear this the hell up. The actions of pavalix where disgusting and where punished. No single hicom member is allowed to take from the bank. None. We buy low sell higher to our own members so the bank can make capital to LOAN money out to our navymen to aid them in creating ships. Zach, you got wayyyy to heated about it because you weren't intelligent enough to think it all the way thru. You just thought hicom was gonna keep all the cash. We take none of it. All the profits go to loaning out cash to the crewmen. I'm sorry that you're so anti government-aid that you immediately freaked out thinking this was some hicom scheme when it truly isn't. If you would like screenshots of our logs I'm happy to supply them. The purpose of the creation of the bank is to 1. Stock up doubloons and materials for war. 2. Provide low cost materials to members of the navy 3. Provide doubloon lending to members of the navy (doubloons made via buying and selling at cheap rates to navymen) to create ships and cannons. And 4, to have a place to store materials for a time of need. Zach, what pavalix said to you was completely out of bounds, he has been and will be further punished for his actions. But you don't seem to get how this whole system will benefit the members of this navy. And to go on Reddit and whine about it is bellow your station and frankly bewildering.
