I hadn't given this any thought until I was listening to Acacia and GoranThrax on their weekly radio talk show 'Northern Exposure.' The issue that caught my attention was due to the emerging of Q7 weapons, players and even some MU's have come across a storage issue. Building Q7's takes an abundance of WRM's to even produce just one of these behemoths and players are having problems finding room to place the massive load of raw materials required to build them.
The wheels in my head started to turn. Why don't we just fold the WRM's into three different categories.
Iron = 1 WRM
Steel = 5 WRM
Titanium = 10 WRM
Another problem for players has been building enough saltpeter mines to sustain a steady flow of Q7 weapons. We could simply add Q6 and Q7 WRM factories, but this would not solved the storage problem plaguing the current player base. Although if you made Q6 and Q7 WRM cheap enough, players would find attaining raw materials more easily.
Maybe merge Q6 and Q7 WRM's and the folding of WRM's into three different categories then?
Have any of the other players around eRepublik had this problem? Any thoughts or suggestions?

MU Storage would be nice, and efficient.
It would cost either a flat fee of say, 50g, or a subscription based model, like 10g a month, anyone can donate to it, as it has an unlimited storage, and everyday it distributes supplies based upon a set of rules the MU Commander writes out, and he can void certain members who are on vacation or didnt fight or this or that. THe Commander will also be able to differentiate the level of supply between regiments, so players who want or get different
levels of supply would be in a different regiment so they would recieve the level of supply the MU Commander set out for them.
It would also hold companies that use WRM and FRM from the MU Storage, players can work for the MU and the companies can never leave the MU without a 66% yes vote from all the officers.
Also those companies can be paid for from the MU's coffers, or donated to the MU by an officer.
MU storage and a script all in one package for a flat fee? Now this is a good idea.
MU Storage ~ great idea.
MU Organizations ~ greater idea.
These admins keep inflating the game but this last Q7 puff-n-huff nearly blew the house down. C'mon give the little war piggies a break, Admin.
You guys need to understand that any new implement need to make gold buyers buy gold packs. the erep compagny will not put time and effort for the free playing ppl, they need some money in return. Yes i know i'm pretty much pessimitic, but that the way online game works, even those that pretend to be ''free to play''. For my part i wont be a mod or game developper for free, i need a salary, and to get a salary the compagnie need to make some money... I'm sure you guys or getting my point!!!
Hence the subscription based model for the MU organizations, call it "rent"
Another great idea the Admins will probably never see or care enough to implement.
