Rupees: Pay with Purpose

I propose a new attribute in the /rupees command. When paying a player, there should be an attribute that allows us to include the reason for the payment so it's clear in our Rupees History why we got the money.

Suggested format:
/rupees pay <username> <amount> <reason>

I don't really know about this. You could add it but make it so that you don't have to give a reason. I don't really see this as a feature anyone would use much. I wouldn't use it much.

I see no point in this as the player paying could just start a conversation or PM the player receiving the rupees...

I like this idea, and i agree with mba that you should be able to choose if you want to add a reason or not.

I think it would be a useful tool when paired with the rupee history page. It would mostly be a "note to self" - it would be too easy to abuse if it were considered official (meaning mods use the description when investigating stealing, etc.). Other than coding difficulties, I can't really think of a reason not to include this.

Of course the reason would be optional.

The most use this would get (or biggest purpose it would serve) would be for people who do a lot of selling without using shop signs. This includes auctioning, both on and off the forums as well as sales of services, loans, profit sharing in a business, etc. There are lots of reasons this would be useful. Just recently, I was paid in advance (by proxy via business partner) for a service, then the customer changed their mind and wanted a refund. I had a difficult time tracking down the payment (to prove receipt of such) in my rupees history, as the transaction had transpired more than a week prior. (I eventually found it and made the refund)

I would like to see this added as an option. Making it mandatory would be silly. But being able to add a reason right at the moment of the transaction makes it so that you don't have to "un-full-screen" the game, load the EMC website, find the person's profile and then start a conversation. And when looking for a transaction in one's history, what if there are several payments from the same person for the same amount? Having the option to list a purpose would make things much easier.

Why take 2 steps, when the same can be done in 1?

i like it.... kind of like the report option has a reason section i support this

It is an interesting idea. I would prefer the dragon tombs and wastelands get out first. And the shop update, don't forget about that.

I like the concept, however I don't know how much it will be used.

i'd use it constantly, easier to determine which of my purchases or sales goes to what project/build.

I remember this suggestion from ages ago, I quite like it.

Just remember, EMC runs on valve time, we might get tombs tomorrow, or never. You never know.

This was suggested quite a while back and I'm definitely a fan Really hope it get's implemented, I would use it quite a lot
