But a bank owned by one of the Mega-Corps is. :On a similar note. How are identifications achieved? As in, how could :anyone prove who they are? : The way the debit flashes worked in my campaign is that you had an electronic device, TL-9 that you placed your thumb on a pad. The print was scanned and analysed. If it was you then whoever you were paying would have there bank acount or there own DEBIT card credited with the proper amount. If you don't want to use debit cards so that that shipment of guns that you just bought is harder to trace, then use cash. You can do one of two things in that case. You can have them go through the exchange rate on world, or you can use Imperial currency through out the Imperium. I have used both. The former is a lot more work than the latter. Otherwise you can always not worry about it. That is the easiest solution of all. Money just gets transferred to and from accounts and you never have to worry about how. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Greg Givler | Q-Link: GregGivler Analyst - Systems Evaluation Group | CompuServe: Greg Givler 76702,647 Commodore Product Assurance | GEnie: [email removed]ivler [phone removed] | The NET: [email removed] - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "By the way, don't eat the figs." - Livia to Tiberius after the death of Augustus - I, Claudius PBS ===============================================================================
