I mean I don't care personally because scrimming is off on my team...

but why did you exclude that option in glb2?

Is it because you didn't like the ppl in glb1 who would donate away all there flex when they were quitting?

is it because you would rather have ppl on glb2 have stagnant flex that will just sit instead of them giving it up to be used?

Probably just a minor cosmetic they haven't really had the time to put in more than the fact that "they don't want to".

This smells like a suggestion.

I opened an actual bank account for my team. If anybody wants to donate PM me and I'll send you the details on how you can help.

But if this was a really successful addition in glb1, you would think the feature would have been in the game before this beta was even released to the public.

Idk about others, but my teams probs spent 1k flex every 10 or so days (atleast) back in glb1.. Why wouldn't Bort want this revenue when everyone wants to test and understand the new sim... It just doesn't make sense.

Seriously, throw this into suggestions. I'm pretty sure a lot of teams would benefit greatly, and I know for fact the that the three Lounge teams would love it.

I would guess most of these minor updates would require Corndog himself to code up since this seems to me to be Corndog's baby while Bort works on other endeavors.

Was it really a "successful addition"?

The only times I ever heard about it were when it was either bugged, or people were quitting and giving away flex to everybody.

I've been on a few teams where a forum post would go up indicating that the team flex bank was dry, and the team would appreciate anyone willing to drop some flex in for scrims.

Usually someone on the team would top it up to 1,000 within the day.

How would it not be successful? You want to give people as many reasons and ways possible to give you money. This is pretty basic

Of course in your case you're going to mostly hear about the quitting people and bugged people, but that's only because people rarely talk about the useful stuff that is working well. Instead, they just use them and assume its obvious that it's successfully working.

Well, that's not really true.

Slapping a "give us money" button everywhere is a pretty big turnoff. But I guess I'll consider adding it if it was actually a feature people used.

I figured the "I'm quitting, who wants a full flex bank" situations was the reason this feature wasn't implemented. That said, my team on GLB1 frequently had a full flex bank. I didn't make a big deal about that on the main forums because, well, who cares. Usually, though, agents on the team noticed when we played a ton of scrims and would donate some flex to keep that trend going.

Obviously you heard about the bugs. Bugs should be reported.
