Slade Trillgon Endless Possibilities Inc. Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2010.03.15 19:45:00 - [1] Granted I have not read the entire thread at this point, but I had this thought a few days ago and want to throw it out before I have to get with another client. How about scaling the returns from insurance according to skill points. This way real noobs will not get hurt, old players are not able to work the system as much as they are currently able to, and new players that somehow get enough money to buy a high skill point character without knowing how things work will continue to learn the hard way.

Or a decrease in insurance payout from 100% (50k SP) to maybe 50% (5m SP) that is fixed around 5m SP? Well..nice idea..but yet another reason to create an alt for this (you don't even have to train them) to do your insurance fraud stuff for you. Yes very nice name Scaling down as in decreased payout the higher your skill points. 50k - 4 million SP = 100% payout 4 million - 8 mill = 75% payout 8 million - 16 mill = 50% payout 16 million plus = 40% As for the alt insurance work around then just make the insurance contract only pay out if the insured pilot is in the ship at the time. But as I have said many times before, I have no clue how programming works and if the above is poosible to determine efficiently or if this would hurt Corp/Alliance based reimbursement programs.

Would be so great if the solution to this would be **ing simple Excellent counter Increase the barrier to entry for the BS class ships Slade Originally by:** Niccolado Starwalker Please go sit in the corner, and dont forget to don the shame-on-you-hat! ≡v≡
