New castle tax

[Akatsukii]

Maybe not many players get a chance to notice or care about castles' tax, but I still want to point it out because there might have some errors in it. Since the new live update, I have took Giran & Aden castle in LOA; and here are some odd differences I have noticed about the tax between before the update and after the update

1.Giran castle used to get average one million adena per four days before update, nowadays Giran Castle get average minus one million adena per four days

2.Aden castle used to get average twenty millions adena per four days before update, nowadays Aden Castle get average two millions adena per four days

3.Every time when I receive report on income and expenditures, chamberlain only shows 0 adena on income every single time even the ending balance gains adena.

I will post few ss about this issue later and hopefully NC will double check on this

If there was any incentive to take a castle it is now...20m in 4 days thats crazy.

20m in 4 days.... that is worth fighting over.

[Akatsukii]

by the way these datas are all under same circumstance, 10% tax rate

20m / 4 days. x 1000 days straight we owned it and now own it 90% of time v.v

I have noticed something very strange and wrong with Giran Taxes. I now own Giran on Ken and reduced the taxes to the lowest (I buy my stuff at giran mostly now since i get some of it back). The prices of the shops have not decreased one bit, it stays at the 20%. I have noticed also that every day my expenses show negative even though there is nothing for me to spend the money on (I leave outer gates open so noone can destroy them.). The only thing I can think of is someone killing my guards since the expenses show payment to mercenaries (-6000).

The only thing I don't understand is I am making NO MONEY on the castle that used to bring in the 2nd most.

People catch on quick. I tend to bookmark shops with low taxes. I can't be alone. If there is a glitch in the machine that wont let you lower taxes, chances are... people are using their bookmarks to buy in other towns. I see a lot of traffic in low tax areas.

These two scenarios don't bode well for the casual player. If expenses are up... there is no choice but to raise taxes. I hope you guys are contacting support and opening a ticket.

Navigation in the support page seems draconian at best... http://help.ncsoft.com

I would suggest a direct email
