Ive been considering this for the last 3 weeks, im just trying to figure out how I want it made and I don't want it to be boring. We already have all the images we need for that job as well. I suppose I can but a little more thought into it for ya xD

Maybe it would be nicer if the server WASN'T staff only

Marcus cannot get on the Graal forums atm, and asked me to post this update:

10/8/11 - Updates ~ Paycheck System

Paycheck System ~ This allows a person to make a certain amount of money everytime they do a job. For exampl fishing, fishing is still the same you catch the fish and when your ready you head to the fishing shop and sell your fish. Everytime you sell a fish or a few fish it will display a message. This message will say "You need $435 to recive a paycheck" pretty much once you sell $500 worth of fish you will recive a check instead of cash. To cash this check you have to go to the bank and speak with the bank teller. Then a gui will popup with 2 options, one will be open a bank account and the other will say cash checks. Once you click on cash checks another gui will popup where you can scroll through a drop down menu for the check you would like to cash. After cashing the check your money will then be deposited into your bank account. This check system has been added to all jobs, each job varies on how well you get paid. For a visual example just have a look at the pictures on the Noctorious Facebook page.

Sounds very unnecessary, some may even consider it a stupid one.

Sounds like hell.

We are working on a tutorial system that will cover every last feature so players aren't confused. Once you login a guide menu will popup and there will be a beginner guide along with job guides and such.

We have not started our big updates yet as we are trying to finish all of the small ones. You may see some of the updates pointless but in the long haul they will come in handy. It's the small things that count. Everything we are adding is Nooob proof so it wont be hard to figure things our or even find your way around the map.

can you give your checks to other players?

stuffs like that.
i hope this was a well thought out "system", if its not, it's going to wreck the servers economy.

You will not be able to sell your checks, they don't even show up in your inventory. The main point of the checks is so that say you just sold $1000 worth of fish and there's no atm in a fishing shop. So you have to run all the way to the bank or better yet you forget all about your money and decide to go pking. This prevents noobs or anyone from having to lose hard earned cash while working. Like I said this is a very very very simple system very easy to use. Pretty much its to protect you from losing money also you can only earn checks from jobs. You can't write checks or trade checks or anything of that sort. Yes you can choose from a drop down menu which check you want to check out. Each check will be individual from the other so say you sell $1000 worth fish you will get 2 checks for $500. Also each check says where it came from if it was from fishing it will say "Fishing Proceeds". There are pictures on the facebook page that show it step by step so just have a look and im sure it will give you a better understanding.

Nice work so far but you should consider a tutorial if you haven't already.

can I set up direct deposit?

[destructo104]

When you cash a check it automatically deposits the money straight into your bank account.

Direct deposit - when your employer deposits the money directly into your bank account.

I do know what that is, I work irl and have direct deposit, but we don't have direct deposit. Its just like cashing a check irl except you have a choice to either get the money in cash or deposit it into the bank. We are adding direct deposit though but it will be for players that are level 4-5.
