Heres an idea I've been playing with for a while inregards to stopping people cheating. Charge everybody to play.

Now before everybody start leaping down my throat let me finish - the cost of joining 1 cent. The reason for this - payment can only be made via paypal or similiar - this way it would prevent people opening extra accounts as they would need multiple paypal accounts etc.

Having been playing since near the beginning I've seen waht is a very good game dragged down by cheaters and I'm sure that alot of you out there will agree with me.

Why not $10. The least we could do to cover server costs. Plus then there could be a "Free" version around for the cheaters to play on. ;)

The monatery value is of little significance - I really mean to use it as a way of monitoring peoples account to ensure that people only have one.

And what about people who don't have credit cards? Not everyone is over 18 or even able to get one, you know.

Very good Idea, one knows that the Adults will pay a Token Gesture, not sure about the massive number of younger generation thoe.

1 cent is nothing but my bank lost my credit card twice in the mail, so I'm still cardless.

I don't mind paying 1 cent (Or 0.56 pence!!!!!) but some of us, as has been metioned don't have credit cards. This would make is impossible to pay:(;):(. i understand that miller has to pay a lot for the server, and that is why I support having payment, but is there another way? Also, why are there no adds? it is great not having them, but surely it would save miller money?

Another idea: Let control Miller the used aircraft market with a broker.
No one can sell an aircraft to it's 2nd airline.
Every airline must sell every aircraft they want to sell to the broker.
The broker will randomly accept an airline that has placed a bid.
This process must have a longer durance( 1 real day or more)

I'm 16 and in USA, which you can't get a credit card. However you can get a Debit card quite easily and I do believe paypal accepts debit cards, correct me if I'm wrong.

But all in all this is a wonderful idea, and I would be most willing to pay up to $10 USD.

Actually, I do believe that in the U.S. you can get a credit card by having it under the name of one of your parents. The account that the card would draw from would be yours (in your name with your money). I almost did it, but I'd rather not spend all my money when I'm still looking for work. lol

We've always promised that Airline Empires can be played for free. This will still be the case, but we are considering running multiple worlds with different features.
