CIP-4: Guild Treasury Rate minimum settings

Summary

The holders of Captain & Company ships (the “Shipholders”) propose exploring an adjustment of the minimum allowing Guild Treasury Rate.

The Guild Treasury Rate dictates the percentage of in-game and quest rewards that guild members send back to the Guild Treasury as they complete objectives and acquire loot.

Important note: The Guild Treasury Rate is the amount the shipholders (Guild Owners) keep. Players of Guild assets keep the complement of this rate (e.g. if the Guild Treasury Rate is 60%, then 60% goes back to the shipholders, and 40% goes to the active player).

This proposal seeks to set a minimum bound on the lowest Guild Treasury Rate possible to allow guilds to find a more equitable footing in their offerings.

Rationale

Setting a reasonable minimum Guild Treasury Rate will prevent the hyper-competitive practice of driving rates to 0% in order to choke out newer guild competition. Reasonable minimum rates could range anywhere from 30%-70%.

This will increase predictability and shift the onus on Guild differentiation to be more about group play activities, availability of ships and other assets, and lore.

Implications

• The minimum Guild Treasury Rate will be set to the outcome
• This proposal is binding and the vote of the Shipholders is final until revision

Options

1. Over 60%
2. 60%
3. 50%
