So you want a loan system? | Started by: Skate on Sep 01, '09 18:44 |
Hello all, how are we today? Good, good because honestly I'm not here to find that out. You can mobmail me though, always up for PM's there. I'm here to maybe just MAYBE intrigue some newer members. The veterans of this game obviously play for the RP sense and some other senses. I play well if you don't know just watch your personals. Anyways I like my personals flashing from money, lots of money. I know many newer members would like money to start out so I've come up with a new idea. In the game suggestions forums, yes there is an actual place for that. Someone posted about wanting to impliment loans and such. Well I doubt admins will do this so let's make it more RP. |

So my grammar is a little rough in there, typed it up in the spur of the moment with no proofreading. |

I think its a brillant idea. When I first started, the first thing I looked for was a loan system. Obviously there wasnt one, so putting some type of system into place is smart IMO. There would have to be alot of details worked out between the borrower and the loaner, but overall I think its a wise move. |

I've already thought up some more details but I'd like to hear the details you're thinking of Ragnarok. Not because I'm lazy but I want this to be entirely worked up by the user base. I'm just putting myself out there to be the referee. |

heres a few things i was thinking: loan maxes should be based upon rank: you dont want to loan a new ganster 1,000,000. theres a good chance you're moneys never getting returned. like all loans: a date has to be established for the loan to be paid in full. One day late and the situation turns bad the only time ive taken a loan from a fellow family member, we had established the amount returned and the exact date it was to be returned. a limit on loans: two loans per rank prehaps put interest on all loans: its only fair for the loaner to profit from his/her ventures, even if its a small profit. I would max it out at 15% but thats just me. |

Well see this is where the whole "judgement" thing comes in on the lenders side. How much do you trust this person? How much is his life worth (a kill basically)? I wouldn't loan personally more than $75,000 to a new mafioso. Why? It's enough for a DFP, it's enough for a range, drugs and flight. It's enough for almost anything they really need to use it for. Now if ThomasRourke came to me and was all "Skate, man I need $3,000,000 for my drug front. I forgot to do the tip on it before the FBN raided it." Then you say, here's a man with respect around these parts and I highly doubt he'll fuck you over. Not because he'd be afraid of death but because he's respected mafioso, why make a bad public image? When it comes to getting the money back on a certain date is kind of what I want to stray away from in a way. Not completely but enough to make it RP worthy. Here's what you do, Say I come to you and need $850,000 for a DFP. Well I'm a Made Man and obviously not stupid so it's unlikely I'll screw you over. But you decide you can hold off on getting it back in full for awhile so you charge them 20% of every take (or some other %). Everyday that's we could say $40,000 so in turn after about 3 weeks you'd get your money back. From their after you're all profit. Chances are though you'll make it like 50% so you're getting like $90,000 or something each time. But who can argue? You get a cut but they never had to put their own money up on that DFP. Guess what, the more times you lend money the better. You lend 5 times with the same policy, that's $200,000 a day. Not to shabby right? |

I like the idea so far. I remember like a month ago or so i also tried posting something about a loan system to help out a lot of the newer members and such, but i like this idea a lot better. :) I hope to see this progress further and actually become something realistic. |

Once I get to speak to Godmother Marietta and ask for her approval I will put a test run in Detroit. |
