Clan Armory

There's a flaw in your idea. Even though I think it could be an excellent addition to the game, what about alt. accounts ?

You just have to create an alt. account, buy a bunch of weapons (even if it's only GP ones) and then donate them all to the clan. Do that 4 or 5 times, and you can have all the GP weapons in your clan armory.
Repeat the process but instead of buying GP weapons, buy GP crates until you win one of the weapon inside, then donate it.

Possible solutions and additions :

• A player must be in the clan for at least x months, and be playing regularly the last x months (clan points as proof) to be able to donate any weapon to the armory.
• A player doesn't really "donate" his weapons, he lends them. After at least one month in the armory, he can take them back (if no one uses them).
• If a player leaves the clan, or is inactive for more than a month, the weapons he lent automatically go back to his inventory, even if someone uses them.
• A player cannot give more than 20% (1 out of 5) of the weapons he has (M16, M700, knifes and thrown weapons not counting). You have an M4A1, an AWM, a D-Eagle, an Anaconda and a D-Eagle Camo. You can lend only one of the 5 weapons (the regular D-Eagle for example) but not another one. You can't empty your inventory in the armory.
• Each time a player takes a weapon from the armory, it's for a duration of 7 days. After the 7 days are over, there's a 7 days cooldown before he can take the same weapon again (even if there are several copies of the same weapon).
• A player can only take up to 3 weapons at the same time. Leaders and Lieutenants have a 3 weapons limit. Regular players have a limit ranging from 3 to 1 weapons depending on either an option set by the Leader or by seniority in the clan.
• Weapons taken from the armory are either auto-repaired or cannot be broken.

Good ideas. I just think this whole idea of armory is too complicated? Why not just implement a trade/lending system into the game? Basically same pros/cons. Even if you take measures to prevent abusing, people will always find a way...
