Donations disabled

Day 3, 00:00 • Published in USA

• by Plato

Donations system has been disabled for the next period of time. That's because we've found out a few fake accounts created just to get gold.|||The fake accounts have been banned and the main users received fines.
In the future if we find out more fake accounts we will start giving bans to the main users accounts too.
We strongly support people that play together with their friends or relatives, not people that are creating fake accounts to get undeserved benefits.

Undeserved benefits = receiving from fake accounts gold or any other currency, votes, being party members in your party, selling products to them, having your company financed by fake accounts.

while a "invest in a company & automatically receive dividends" feature is not implemented, this is the best decision to take.

Although this is a step in the right direction, it severly limits investments. I recently suggested in the forums that citizens needing food invest internationally to get food companies to purchase export licenses so that they may provide food in a market that has none. At the moment I can't think of a way around simply banning donations...if I think of anything I'll let you know. I was going to suggest limited donations, but it's still a handicap to honest players.

it's true that this can become easily an exploit but it really limits the investments. I think investment accounts should be implemented at least as a company type from normal user account. I think the best option could be to implement this as a group of users rather than a company.

I also have a problem - I have been incentivising my workers with bonus payments based on sales. I was going to pay them this bonus via donations. Do you have any suggestions how this might work now, or can you make an option for workers of your company for "Pay bonus"
