Removing negative bank balance feature
The advantages of this change happening: our cash will be safe even if are in negative cash balance
The disadvantages of this change happening: many user will take advantage of this and can earn money easily
when we used to gamble, many times we get cash in negative, and if the amount is large say 1million, we used to ignore it by not recovering it and quiting the game or lending from someone else. but now when we gamble or our cash goes in negative and we quit the game, that doesn't help and we lost that negative balance is automatically recovered from our bank account.
so, i think this negative bank feature should be removed. :) :)
reply so that everyone can express their views regarding this....

This will not be removed. It's easy enough to earn money as it is, gambling without any risk...what's the point of it?

Agreed. You gamble, you take the risk of lossing the cash.
-
Yeah Alvar, you are right. But in most of servers ppl can gamble without any risk, when they come to LW, gamble, and then rejoin 2 days later with -2000000 in bank they cant even buy weps. Dunno the solution. Maybe the negative balance could be removed after a week or some, or just make a warning that will appear in a casinos, something like: Warning! The negative amount of your cash will not disappear even after rejoining the server.
Something like "Fighting disallowed!" in ammonation and bank.
-
Yes when i join i always here ppl complain OMG wheres my money in bank i hd 3mill now i have -1mill omg!
Warn
or
REMOVE
-
yea, atleast warning should be made....
-
when you are in the negative just rejoin a little bit later ;)
If your too lazy to do something for your money...well then maybe you should hire someone to make money for you!!
-
lol roach, that rejoining after negative balance feature is already removed. now when u are in negative and rejoin after sometime, ur bank balance will deduct, or if u have 0 in bank then it will go in negative....
-
Unless you play sa-mp in a wheelchair (no offense to people who do, just getting the point accross that there are no handicap's in sa-mp). Everyone is eekwal. (spelt wrong intentionally)
-
Lol, some people want to change things that are nice.

I'm now 3 Million negative, I used to like this server but now I'm thinking about quiting. I have now way to get guns anymore, so bountyhunting is impossible. I suck at racing so that won't be an option and money for properties also isn't there. This means I just can play with a handgun and nothing else. This is really a pretty damn nasty update.
With the negative bank, I'll play another server and I also don't think you'll attract new players.
-
Yeah I guess it should be fixed so that you can't have a negative bank. If I see you ingame I'll reset your bank.
-
Yeah, I do think that if you have negative cash when you quit the game, it should be subtracted form your bank account. However, this should be done in such a way that your bank couldn't go below $0. Otherwise it's kind of pointless as you can just register a new account and get $0 back in your bank again...
-
Just make the negative balance disappear, but not immediately after rejoin, but a day or some later. And the player has to know that negative balance is possible, and that it would reset soon. That will prevent ppl from gambling for negative money, but also would not make their game really pointless.
Or other option: If it's sctiptable just make it impossible to gamble when you have 0 or, for example, -10k in your pocket. You want to gamble - first get cash for it.

lol "I bet 1 000 000$ on a cockroach that fights agains Mike Tyson but i dont wanna loose my money

I dont like to say that BUTT! ITS A PART OF THE GAME! how to fuck shoud it work wihnout the minus
they had to remove FLUFFY the tank from server and thats not cool >:(
-
i don't like negative bank, i suggest you make a limit that is 0
-
tell me how you would make money if you're balance is one million negative?
- Can't kill people because you don't have money for weapons!
- Can't win races because you can't upgrade cars,, and can't win races because there always people playing that are playing for like 24/7 for like 5 years.
- It would take about 11 hours standing on the ship to get the one million back, which is pretty impossible
- If you're credit is 1 million negative the only option to get it without no-lifing for like 11 hours on the ship is by gambling. But if you loose you'll be forced to either register again (which most people won't do, they'll find another server which they like more) and loose all you're stats
I don't see why the negative balance isn't deleted already? Because it's so you won't be rich quick, but the people who decided that and/or are agreed with that are the people with the money. Basically that are the people that don't need to make money anymore.
-
If you don't wanna lose, don't gamble. If you have negative balance, ask some friend to borrow some money to buy props and get out of negative, that'll do the trick. It's lame to cry that you have negative balance that you have caused yourself. Once again, don't gamble if you can't stand this.
-
Yeah Masterbeef, but it still makes ppl leave the server and I think right now we can't let it happen. Maybe it's not a bad idea after all to remove this feature. I know, it's taking away all the risk of gambling, but I'd prefer to have 50 players and everyone rich, than 15 normal players.
-
0 should be the lower limit, the game mode was coded with 0 as the lowest bank balance in mind. I'm surprised no bugs have come because of negative bank balances...
-
now, since the limit of bank has also decreased to 6 mil, i think now its time to remove this....
-

Agree
-
it's right to let the bank account get lower even when u leave the server with debts...i used to leave too, when i tried to win millions gambling and failed reaching the -1 mil debts, now is more realistic
but the lowest bank limit, must be set to 0 like someone else already said, this will let people try to earn cash again starting from 0, which isn't anyway a good prospective xD
but at least they won't leave the server, since they couldn't come back with a positive bank account, or create another account (even easier) to avoid the debts and losing their stats
