Heck could use groups that already exist Like MHO's, and Houses like Pauper's, Aspis. Give these types of groups a reason to be more than the extra locker space.
If the group perks and boons don't have an effect outside the framework of all this then it would be a good way to level the field somewhat for the havenots. Even if you are a GS billionaire you can't out uber anyone else in the groups in the events.
I was premium in the past, but frankly I'm finding Simu Coins a better way for me to go. I just looked over what I spent playing since I have been back and its roughly what premium costs. Mostly bought bounty task vouchers, encumbrance monthlies, and Duskruin tokens. The types of perks from Premium are somewhat out of date like extra typeaheads, or take too long, like the loyalty points stuff. So my idea for these groups with sets might coax a few more bucks out of me..
Heres to group uberness!
