Restrict CM Mark trading to inside the nation only

[Bach]

Its already started. We're seeing PB slots taken up by alts for the purpose of farming CMs from other nations and its creating arguments as other non-alt nation members are getting blocked out of PB participation slots.

 

Alts are not bad things. But when they cause distrust and arguments in the nation they get disruptive.  What is causing this is that CMs can be freely traded from an alt in one nation back to the main in another.  These alts then rob the nation of the CM production as these CMs then flow to other nations and not to the nation that actually flipped or defended the port.

The easiest solution is to simply put restrictions on trading CMs. 

Option A - not tradeable at all. Specific to player that earned them

Option B - Tradeable only to clan mates. Promotes clan play in RvR and deters alts from taking up PB slots for money making purposes

Option C - Tradeable only inside creating nation.  Deters foreign alts from taking the CMs out of the nation but does not prevent them from selling them in nation for profit.

 

Some thoughts. But the nation cross teaming distruct and the hurt feelings by those blocked from Port battles by alts will grow into a game wide issue.
