Clan banks

[pepsi_me_blu]

I posted this on RS forums, but got little response, so here goes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was wondering if creating a separate account for clan, to hold it's wealth, is allowed, and debate whether or not it should be. My idea of a clan bank would work like this: You create an account, take it through Tutorial Island, but DON'T train any skills. Only 1 clan member has access to this account. If that clan member wishes to make a donation from his/her main account, trade it to a trustworthy clan member, who would trade it to the Bank. I'll go through all the rules and see how they might conflict with this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rule 1 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 2 - If the clan leader closed clan, stole everything, then yes it would be a scam. But it's your choice to donate.

 

 

 

Rule 3 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 4 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 5 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 6 - No, only one person will know secret word and pin.

 

 

 

Rule 7 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 8 - According to this, I cannot donate to my own clan because I have control of this account.

 

 

 

Rule 9 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 10 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 11 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 12 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 13 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 14 - No Conflict

 

 

 

Rule 15 - No Conflict

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can someone please clarify clan bank account for me please. And is there a rule around Rule 8 without technically breaking it?

I made a topic about this awhile ago Im not sure where I put it :oops:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to answer your question its quite alright to have a Clan Bank under your controll so long as you don't transfer items from your account to it or vice versa. that pretty much covers it. but I have found a Clan Bank to be difficult to maintain for many resons.

So what system do you have in place now? Do you still use a clan bank?

Thats your post Bufoman. The only real problem I can see here is the fact that I have tonnes of items and cash in my bank that I would like to put into my clan bank, but that goes against Jagex rules. But this stuff is really clogging up my account.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only other option I can see is this: I trade my stuff to a trustworthy clan member, and wait a few days (make it seem as though it were a gift or something) then have him trade it to the bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sound like a good idea?

[Bufoman]

that would still be in violation of the rules Im afraid. jagex reely hasent addressed the issue of Clan banks or much of anything clan related in their rules. I would suggest that you keep those items from your account on your account less you violate the rules.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I acculy considerd drop tradeing to my bank once but before I did I re read the rules and found it was against them. so you see there is reely little in the way of clan support from Jagex as of now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what would reely be nice is if Jagex aculy made a Clan bank in the reguler banks which was controlled by the leader and had diffrent levels of access to diffrent members. but as it stands jagex has not done this nor said account tradeing is alright if its for a Clan Bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

although the reading of the rules may suggest its to prevent you from gaining an unfair advantage I would still recomend that you do not violate the rules. Jagex has the rules for a reson and wheather we agree with them or not we should not violate them. we have made an agreement when we made our accounts to follow the rules for starters. further more if you do violate the rules I advise you not to brag about it heer less you be banned from our fourms.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wheather we agree with them or not TipIt Staff enforces Jagex Rules on our fourm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope that answerd your questions.

Clan banks aren't a very smart idea anymore. When PKing, if a clan member needs to return u would have to log out then log into the clan bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Clan members should provide for themselves.

[mchainmail]

couldn't you make 2 bank accounts, so that you would be able to donate to the one that isn't controlled by you?

Yeah. But it depends on the size of the clan you have. If it is very small, it would be an OK decision. If it is a fairly large clan, then it will start to not be a good thing anymore.

The clan bank would only be used to store items that have been donated by members, and would only be used for events such as wars, skilling Olympics, etc. I expect people who attend clan Pk's to provide their own armor and weps. The only time anything would be belonging to the clan would be used for Pk's is if someone needed cape, str pot, or food. And it would only be as a last resort.

Are you suggesting something like this:

 

 

 

The leader creates a bank account, and has another trust worthy member create another "bank" account. The leader trades stuff to the "bank" who trades it to the real bank?

 

 

 

This is still against rules. Your not allowed to trade to a friend, and have them trade to another account that you have control of.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, there is one idea I just came up with. Say I give a friend of mine 200k cash (as a gift), then he traded 1k iron bars to the bank, and the bank sold the 1k iron bars at 200 ea.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bit of a stretch I know. But not technically against the rule.

[The Observer]

Please don't double post, use the "edit" button. Yes, I do not believe it is against the rules either.

[SF_Rmond]

basically hes saying that there would be 2 clan banks 1 that you control and another guy that controlls one you would have no interaction with that other one whatsoever maybe only donating items from it from your main main bank. You could let that other bank maybe hold food and less valuable items only and the main one the more valuable ones

I think it would just be a better idea to make a section in your own bank account for clan items. Perhaps at the top or very bottom. Here you cn stack up some essential things that your clan may need (rune items, food, etc.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From what I can tell, that doesn't break any rules...

Thats what I was doing. But I had over 35 slots for clan items. Thats a nice chunk of space, even if you a member =/

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think I solved the problem. I got a friend to donate the cash that I was going to out there (from his account), and for his birthday I'm going to buy him a big present :)
