Noticed there wasn't a thread on the first page, so thought it needed one.
I just checked out the statistics page. Many of the numbers make my head hurt, to be honest, but for those with actual accounting ability, it must be awesome.
Color scheme and layout is nice too, I prefer darker colors and the site suits me well.
Things are speedy, and really, it's not hard finding out where something is, in the rare cases I have to look.
Plus, it helps that the people in charge are active, showing they know their stuff every day here.
I find EBANK better than using an alt to hold my money, and I want to say thanks.

I hate happy things, that's why I kill puppy dogs and kittens for fun.
On that note, E-Bank is severely lacking in the ability hold any substantial amount of money... thus is completely worthless to me. When I have a good couple of days and have 10 billion laying around I'd throw it in... and maybe in a week or two or three when I decide what I'd like to do with it I'd pull it out. But noooooo.. they can't handle it!
Worthless I tell you, worthless!

While you're here, I love you for never being polite. TBH, more people need kicking in the face, and there are not enough boots to go around.

Actually...
There is no limit on the amount of money that you can deposit into EBANK. However, there is a limit on how much you can transfer into a savings account (limit 500 million) and a checking account (limit 500 million). For example, your account could look like this:
Net Cash Value: 4,000,000,000
Savings: 500,000,000 (3% per month interest) Checking: 500,000,000 (1.5% per month interest) Sweep: 3,000,000,000 (no interest)

What is the point of keeping spare ISKies in Ebank if it DOESN'T earn interest???
Sure give you some cash to help a return!
If I am earning zero interest my wallet is the safest place.

Believe it or not...some people do use EBANK like a piggy-bank. They put money in so they can't spend it as easily...if I had to guess, they do so to help them reach certain goals in terms of saving money.
Honestly, I was just argueing semantics with you but we do see this happening. Is it common? Not overwhelming so...but if you look at our statistics you can see quite clearly that:
Total Sweep Account Balance: 5,180,504,421.91
And not a single isk of that is generating interest. It does account for 10% of all EBANK deposits though. I'm of course interested in this because we didn't expect nearly 10%, more like 3% if that much.
I just put some google analytics on the site to track viewing trends and get a better idea of useage...I'm currently trying to figure out what people like to do with EBANK and how they like to use it.

Unless you're the type that likes to spend your cash easily, then it could be argued that the "safest" place is in a piggy-bank of sorts. I do understand what you mean though...EBANK is still considered to be "unsafe" by people.

Add a 0 to those numbers and it would really start becoming useful.

I consider myself a target EBANK user, someone who usually works with an isk reserve between 250 million and 1.5 billion isk. So, EBANK works for me, I wonder though, how many Shadarle's are really out there with 10 billion isk?
Other than that, thanks Shadarle for sig material.

May as well post this in the love thread.
According to our EBANK stats page, today EBANK has surpassed 100 billion isk in funds churned throughout EBANK. This isn't the amount of customer funds EBANK holds, just the amount that we have migrated in various ways (through withdrawals, player to player transfers etc).
Very cool stuff. We are also around 20b away from reaching our PHASE III capacity which has once again been reached awfully quickly. Some new accounting options will be forthcoming before we begin to consider PHASE IV which should keep people like Shadarle happy as well .
Not only that, Hexxx and Mr Horizontal both have individual projects set to blow your socks off. One of Mr Horizontal's project involves detailing loan application forms and the likes for simplified and slightly more automated loan options (basically we are designing the form not automatically approving).
Hexxx's project is top secret but should have a huge effect on financial minds in here, both new and old.

No one else sees the lengthy and sometimes contentious discussions that go on behind the scences at EBANK. The Board of Directors plays a huge part in the strategy of EBANK and without them; EBANK wouldn't be what it is today.
And of course, our two other technical resources LaVista Vista and Mr. Horizontal! Mr. Horizontal especially has been doing a TON of coding lately and has revamped some of EBANK's older systems!
Oh...and Ricdic does some stuff too I guess...I dunno?

I get a bit annoyed with myself at times because of the money I let build up. It's just because I'm very lazy. I just wish I only had 10 bill sitting in my wallet, I am quite embarrassed at how much money is sitting in just my alts wallet, not to mention my main wallet which is worse still.
There has been a dearth of decent IPO's lately. I have been working with someone behind the scenes (something I generally dislike doing as it means I have to actually do some work). He posted on the forums a while back and I had some chats with him, I believe he will be making an official IPO post soon. Hopefully it turns out as well as I hope it will. Anyhow, this lack of IPO's and my increasing profits lately running up against my laziness has contributed to a much larger balance than I should have. I would imagine not many people have as much ISK sitting in their wallet as I do as it is pretty stupid to do so.

Edited by: Kirjava on 15/12/2007 18:58:36 There is the problem of expanding too fast though. I have no idea how fast they make the isk or how (bar loans + transfer fees), so them having a cap isn't a bad thing.

There is also the issue that they are only paying out 3%, which I'd hope anyone here could make no matter how much ISK they had.
Gotta keep things in perspective.

Yea, 3%/month is easy as pie tbh, but some of the functionality they should be doing would work well. Take Slurms project for instance, if his website gets linked into EBANK for payments and he introduces a market like the one ingame (buy orders/sell orders) then it would be worth it. What I'm not sure of is why 7% is taken as the staple interest rate....

For inflation-indexed securities, you can hardly do better than a wide selection of officer, deadspace, and faction modules. Emphasis on "wide selection", of course, as everything gets hit by the occasional nerf.

Disingenuous posting 4tl. The interest rate has been properly explained over and over again. To avoid runs on the bank a certain amount of deposited funds are kept liquid. If we kept 50% of the funds liquid the effectively doubles our interest debt to 6%. Just because you want to have a long term depositing location doesn't mean we can presume this to be the case for everyone or, even, if you are telling the truth. We limit deposit maximums to coincide with what we think we can effectively put to use and avoid any run on the bank. Accidental (Very unlikely) or by design (Paranoia speaking and I'm listening!) Couldn't you have kept your grousing to one of the many other Ebank threads though? Just wondering as the op was trying to be praising and, well, I'm not saying you can't grouse a bit but ... Originally by: Kirjava Take Slurms project for instance, if his website gets linked into EBANK for payments and he introduces a market like the one ingame (buy orders/sell orders) then it would be worth it.
This was something very heavily discussed and debated. I'm not going to go into any details or specifics but I am, myself, adamantly against any kind of integration no matter who is at the head of the "alternate" project. I feel I need to clarify as well. The issue before the board regarding this really isn't about Dr Slurm's website at all. It is about coming up with our own standards and policies for any kind of co-operative endeavors. Using Dr Slurm's website as an example, the standards and practices have to be worked out for highly automated processes. Once we have this worked out we hope to have solutions for any and/or all potential integrations. Security is paramount, but of course, and I am taking a stance from a page of CCP's handbook (API Chapter!) regarding Security. IMHO one way integration is the only palatable level of handshake. I.e. Ebank sends data to the "integrates", no data or fund manipulation from external sources of any kind. I hope that answers the idea you raised. While it may seem that working with Dr Slurm's website is a no brainer there are still many issues such "obvious" ideas require.

Not disingenuous at all. 6% isn't exactly tough to do, 3% is a joke. There is a reason Ionia was able to offer 150-200 billion or whatever in bonds at 6-7%, it's because it is not too difficult to make more than that. The more money ebank has the less of a percentage has to be kept on hand. So 6% is a disingenuous number to use.
Originally by: Shar Tegral Couldn't you have kept your grousing to one of the many other Ebank threads though? Just wondering as the op was trying to be praising and, well, I'm not saying you can't grouse a bit but ...
This thread was more of a joke thread than a praise thread imo. The entire reason it was posted was because he said it was so shocking not to see one on the front page. I posted tongue and cheek at first, but as people started taking me seriously I decided to respond to their posts. Not everyone finds E-Bank so useful and or great. Just because a thread starts positive doesn't mean no one is allowed to disagree.
I'm frankly sick and tired of seeing a post in nearly every thread on this forum promoting E-Bank. It's becoming annoying spam at this point. If E-Bank spam is going to be all over this forum then a bit of complaints with the way E-Bank operates is more than fair and healthy. I should be the one telling the E-Bank people to keep their constant comments to one of the existing E-Bank threads, not you telling me to keep criticism to one of the other threads.
