Sharing lords gold, whats up with that?

If I remember correctly, bankers get informed of large trader-initiated transactions within their own realm.  Thus, if a trader goes and buys 1000 bushels in Shoka or someplace, Terran's banker will hear about it...but won't know where that food gets sold.  When the 1000 food gets sold in Paisly, D'Hara's banker will hear about it, but I doubt he'll be inclined to tell Terran's...

Also, I think that the 50 gold/100 bushel limit is a thing of the past.  Not 100% sure, though; you might try it out.

So automated caravans are completely under the radar to everyone but the two lords involved?

Automated caravans work just like all other region-to-region caravans, except that they're, well, automated.

Not anymore.  :o

Luria is reforming? Arghhh. Back to square one.

Stupid Fleugs, don't say it out loud. People can NOT ignore OOC when deciding IC decisions. Its a fact. My past proves that.

But in general I agree.

The question is then, which part of what I say here, or on IRC, is really true? I have known some before, that took what I said OOCly ingame, and were shamed to find out that what I said OOC was not my character's plan. More people should do it; eventually everyone will be careful about what they believe or not.

Nevertheless, the mere fact that, as a player, you would use OOC information, makes you a cheater.

Luria is one Empire anyway.. All this talk of Reforming and Rejoining is hogwash I tell you!

But is there any desire to make them more noticeable for someone (banker or dukes or rulers) or will they stay like this forever? It's really a pain for those up in the hierarchy to monitor food movements now.

There hasn't been any intention to.  I'm willing to listen to suggestions—which should include both *why* and *how* ;)

I see no reason to do so. Since the Bankers were weaken with the removal of their ability to move food around with the push of a button, the need for them to know exactly what the lords are doing has also been reduced to my mind. I don't see bankers as needing to be that involved in the details and micromanagement of food any more.

I'd rather prefer it be made less visible. ;)

We don't only pay, we pay damn good for it. You should check to see if your caravans can reach us, it'll be completely unnoticed since you are the sender. Just don't send it all one shot, I'm not all too confident on how secure that land route is and you probably have a high chance of it not reaching. Mind you, a chance of profit is better than certainty of none. ;)
