I think it'd be nice if the Emera Bank is accessible through the Town's menu. It will be easier to access, and makes sense to get it from the town.

How exactly would it be easier to access? All you have to do is press on the PD/Nuggets thing on the Userbar...

Well, it would definitely be easier for users on mobile devices. I just tested it on my phone and - like pretty much everything else located in the userbar - it's really hard to actually hit the small icon.
Sure, you can zoom in but only up to a certain level since parts of the userbar disappear when zooming in.

I accept with liirah its hard to do it and there should be a bank access from town to make it more good looking

Uhm, are you sure that it's hard to click on it, when you're on a mobile device? Because I just tested it and it worked on the first try - without even having to zoom in.
You don't have to click on the "PD"/"Nugget"-icon, you can also click on the numbers or anywhere between. Which makes it (going by pixels) about 7-times easier than clicking on the Notification-icon.

I've been on my iPad for a while. It's super easy to click, no problem at all.

I only think that new players can be a little confused (if it will be accessible only from the money/nugget icon), because there will be no info nowhere, that such a feature exists, especially when the News about it will go to another page. (Not to mention that most new players don't read the News at all)

I kind of agree with it because it was a bit confusing to begin with until I checked the feeds but still, I agree

Actually this is not a main feature - it's not needed at all.
This is mainly for everyone who has been complaining about "randomly losing money" in our forums. And if such thread still appear, we can tell them to click on the money/nuggets.

Apart from that, I believe that every newbie hovers over the nuggets/pokedollar at least once after starting on PH (maybe because they are confused about the currencies and want to learn more). They notice that the cursor changes into a "click"-symbol and they'll try it out.
Of course I can't tell that for sure, but I'm actually quite convinced that every new player does that once in a while. Learning by testing :b

And like I said, the Emera Bank is nothing important. You don't need it - you just may want to look at your transaction history in case you forget where you spent all of your money.

So, no actual Bank in the town? Is it some kind of Virtual in-a-virtual-game thing or what? e.e

To me, I think some so-called 'newbies' will click town, then they see no bank. Ta-da!

I don't really want this for now but, it's for the staff to decide :b

Well of course that's a "real" bank in Emera Town - but it doesn't do anything. You can't deposit money or anything - it's just a log. Nothing that actually interfers with actual gameplay :b
So yeah, I don't really see a point in moving it to a main spot on this page (for example the Town-page) - because I highly doubt that most users will actually use this (daily).

It's just like the Castform weather: It isn't explained anywhere (aside from the PH Wiki), but still, everyone knows what it's for. Because everyone tried hovering about it and read the description. Same with the Trainerlevel: Everyone knows that you see your trainerpoints when hovering over it.
And I'm pretty sure that everyone will also try hovering/clicking on their money.

So i would definitly support this idea.

In all honesty, I have no issues with clicking longer links on that bar. (Notifications are a nightmare to get to, and I can't use palpad on the phone because it puts all the posted text off-screen, barely making one line able to be seen, but this isn't a complaints thread)

And if you have serious issues with it, just remember it's the Emera Bank,
/emerabank added to the end of the site url, and voila, it's easy to get to on a mobile device without clicking. I actually remember urls that I frequent often due to that being a whole lot easier than trying to navigate with the drop down menus on a mobile device:p

Positive. Took me several tries to make it work. And like I said, it's not only the money thing but also the notification icon, the Pal Pad & message icon (especially those!) and my profile. But oh well.
Referring to Diana's post, it might work better on iPads or tablets in general since the screens are bigger than phone screens but on phones it can be really hard sometimes. :P
But since it worked fine for you, it's maybe just my derp phone. uwu


@Navuso
Yeah. I, too, usually navigate via URLs when surfing on my phone. Then again, I was just responding to the first post. And sometimes even small things can make people happier. ;)

Rejected for reasons stated by me earlier in this thread. It's not a core feature that is used every day - it's a (more or less) hidden log which can be used in rare cases where people are wondering where their money went.
