Several Suggestions

Ipps

1) It's too easy to invade a colony.  I don't use a credit card, so I've spent a lot of time and millions of credits, only to have someone using a credit card takeover my highly defended colonies and then kill me in space while I'm logged out.  This usually ends up destroying my whole corporation too.  There really needs to be a way to prevent players using credit cards from completely destroying players and corporations who do not use credit cards.

2) It seems really ridiculous that if you get shot down with a bounty on your head you will lose all of your experience.  This is really frustrating and ruins the rest of the time on a server.

3) There needs to be a better interface for the menus.  I would really like to have more than one window open at once.  It's especially frustrating when I write half an email, then have it deleted because I switched to another menu.  There also needs to be a way to edit text in emails more easily.

4) A couple of servers that don't allow credit card use.  This would make the game more competitive for both CC-users and non-CC-users.  And if non-CC-users think they're good enough they could join games with CC-users.  This would also probably raise more donations from the CC-users because they wouldn't be able to prey on non-CC-users, thus encouraging them to spend more real money.

Read the post in the tavern by Gills, i responded to yours and his problems/suggestions.

the only one i didn't respond to was this here menu thing #3.

LAZY people i would much rather have the programmers working on more ships more fun more quests more npcs, more weapons and stuff than wasting their time trying to fix the menu to just a few peoples lazy needs.
A minute ago i read a suggestion on letting someone have a 'dump all resources at a refinery' button cause they had more than one type of cargo.. LAZY i tell you!

1) Colony invasion IS too easy (whether you use a credit card or not). The reason is more often than not poor placement of defenses or not enough defenses. However, if you spend enough money, you should be able to make your colony impenitrable. Coche's idea of walls is a good one.

2) It IS unfair that you lose all your exp if you have a bounty. It would be better if you were sent to jail instead. You would be stuck in jail at Sol for 24 hour or something unless you paid your bail (say, the amount of your bounty). The regular penalties or getting shot down are bad enough as it is.

3) As for this point.. it would be nice to be able to edit messages more easily

4) I think that this suggestion would lower the amount of money donated because the CC games ould have far fewer players (if any) and the other games would have most of the people. It would discourage credit card use. Credit card use doesnt ensure victory, it simply gives people an advantage. Those of us not using credit cards just have to work harder to keep up.
