We join a society with a membership fee of 100 coins. HB takes their 10% leaving 90 coins to hit the society's bank. This applies to every player that joins every society.
We join a society event with a 100 coin entry fee. HB takes their 10% leaving 90 coins to hit the events prize purse. This also applies to every player that joins every event.
Lets say the event has been setup to pay:
300 coins for First place. HB takes their 10% leaving 270 coins to actually go to the player.
200 coins for Second place. HB takes their 10% leaving 180 coins to actually go to the player.
100 coins for Third place. HB takes their 10% leaving 90 coins to actually go to the player.
HB takes 10% of every payout!
I donate 5000 coins to my society. HB takes their 10% leaving 4500 coins to actually go to the society.
So, we get taxed for joining a society. Taxed for playing in a society. Taxed for winning in a society! Taxed for donating to a society!
C'mon HB! This is excessive wouldn't you say?
There is no doubt that coin purchases will be working very soon. That is most likely priority #1 for the first patch.
Still the possibility to set 0 cost for society activities, right?
Maybe they will plug that as well to force monetisation.
