I like that idea a lot actually. It would be really fun. Probably a lot of work for EA to make it work right but it would add a great social element.Also we should get a bit of interest on the money in the bank...interest could be awarded every 24 hours at a certain percentage and compound daily.

No. I have to sleep sometime, and I have neighbors in many different time zones. My money would be stolen all the time :?

Hmmm, not bad... somewhat interesting / something different; could include incorporating the leprechaun & Burns somehow as well since they're money related... Maybe when leprechaun or Burns occasionally appear at the bank there's some lucky bonus, or Burns has a task that must be met w/in certain window of time or you face a paddlin penalty / lose interest on savings :thumbup:

Welcome to the forum.I don't think this will happen because of the bad response that came when you use to be able to steal the lemon tree.Yes, I know that was not in-game money, but in-game money is tied to time I spend on the game and hence also has value to me.

What if we add a wrinkle ... For every million dollars taken from my bank account, I get a free donut.

Or, futhermore... us premium players are already spending real $, so another idea is opening an actual Springfield bank that we can create actual game accounts where, for those interested can deposit a certain amount of funds that can earn donuts in interest :mrgreen:

That's probably not going to happen either because of feeder towns.

Sorry, but my brain is fried right now. Just out of a 3 hr meeting. I'll try to think of some positive ideas once I rest.

People would lemon tree it. Steal the money then unfriendly them.

I'm not really crazy about the robbing part, but how about the opposite? If players could deposit money into a friends bank to help them out. Seems a lot more sociable than robbing them. :wink:

Yes, our Springfield needs a bank... What better than the First Bank of Springfield! 8)

EA can create a storyline on Bank Robbery, involving the Wise Guys and the cops... or perhaps a storyline on Bank Run like in the Great Depression, where every characters storm the bank to withdraw their money... Cool isn't it? :roll:

Should be able to deposit money to. What else would make it better IMO is if we get a spinner to spin up what rate of intrest we would make on our savings, basically a spin at increasing your de creasing your multiplier of course, ea would have to fix the rigged bits, can't have a wheel like the previous rorting ones we have had.
