What is being spent for squads? The squad themselves is like 2000 gralats and another 2000 for allies and that's pretty much it. I guess you can count squad stations putting in five dollars each, but you can make them just like regular ships and people would still buy them. If you are saying people are buying guns for their squads, that's pretty much PKing itself that their spending guns on, not the squad.

It's 2k to create and 2k for the alliance. It also cost 1k to rename which is where the spending is actually coming from. We have tons of squad name changes each day. I can give the exact amount being made because I am not allowed to but a good amount of gralats are removed from squads alone.
Now this is just a suggestion.
If you really want to produce income, my idea would be to remove Iricia and CTF from squads and have it used for factions. Reverse Iricia back to how it was in release and make it so each faction versus each other in the two planets like so:

Iricia is already back to how it was on release. As for setting it up for just factions we would have to change a lot of systems to do so. Would have to discuss that with them first.

What we will do for the factions themselves is have them reset every week. Anytime of the week a player pays to join a random faction for the week. The goals of the factions is to win the most games in Iricia and CTF by the end of the week and/or accumulate the most kills as a faction, planets and skyworld kills counts towards it. The two faction with either most wins and/or most kills will let every player in the faction will earn a reward, and top few players with the most kills during the week in the faction will earn a larger reward, but the problem with this idea is that you can't really involve leveling up a faction and people cannot really accumulate items for a specific faction and cannot choose a faction on their own. This idea is just to throw out there in case if it does sound interesting and allows the higher ups to earn money since players have to join and pay a small fee every week.

I think these guys that started this had a different idea in place for factions. So lets wait for their response. I don't think resetting factions weekly or in any time frame is a good idea. These guys want something with progression. Something they work towards and can keep doing so. Not having to start fresh all the time.
