Toribank - Beta Testing
I thought i'd let you in on something I've been working on for the past 12 hours. It's not meant to be a robust solution to all the worlds problems, but more of a proof-of-concept that might result in something "official" later on.
Basically, Toribank is an automated user that takes commands via PMs, and manages funds in accounts that way. Account owners have the ability to add and remove account managers who can also manage funds in the accounts. The main target group of this feature is clans who share resources among them. Currently this is done by a shared account, despite being against the rules. With a bank system it's easier to share TC in a group, plus logging keeps track of who's using up all the TC.
This post/thread will only serve as startup. The most up to date info can be found here: http://toribash.jarmund.net/toribank.txt
As the title says, this system consists of around 600 lines of spagetti-code that i've baked together for the past 12ish hours, so keep that in mind when trying to break it.
From looking at the console right now, i think it's worth mentioning that all commands are to be sent in UPPERCASE... RTFM..
Oh, and this being beta, and all... use at your own risk. If you lose money to the bank, then there's no refund. However, on the flipside, if you manage to find a loophole and gain money, you get to keep it (bug reports appreciated, tho).
Update: Most teething problems should be weeded out now. I would consider it safe for clans to transfer TC over to toribank.

Are you trying to tell, that all clanbanks will be banned?

If not, it would be a nice addition if it's possible.
At the present it does not support it, but it might at some point in the future.

What i'm saying is that clanbanks are already against the rules, and run the risk of being banned at any time.

Do you guarantee the safeness of tcs for clanbanks? And if all this idea will be ruined by the mistique forces, who will refund tcs?
