please Devs i know you are currently updating the Klingon character designs but might I take this opportunity to ask can we please have a bank terminal added to the KDF shipyard.
the feds shipyard has a bank terminal right there in the fed ESD shipyard but when you are playing KDF if you happen to need to access the bank to retrieve ship components eg beams, torps ect. you have to go to first city to get them, this is doubly annoying if you happen to be at the KDF shipyard when you suddenly decide you want the item, you then need to traverse from the shipyard NPC back to the transporter pad, transport to first city then traverse from the transporter pad there round to the bank terminals to collect your item and then retrace your journey all the way back to the shipyard NPC.
it would save so much time if there was a bank terminal right there in the KDF shipyard and I have noticed there are a few unused terminals at the KDF shipyard that would be ideal and convenient locations for a bank terminal.

When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

But just so you know, you can left click on the slot you're trying to fill (Weapon, Warp Core, Console, etc) and equip anything there from your bank or from another of your ships without actually using the bank. You don't actually need to access the bank to pull something out of it.
Still, your request is a fair and valid one.
Buy inventory slots and plan ahead of time so you don't have to go back and forth. Or do your business on Drozana or Gandala, where the consoles are in close proximity.

yes I am aware of the mouse click slotting feature and I am not keen on using it, I find it too confusing to see a long list of choices instead of just the one choice I want, for example I may have a deflector in my bank that I want to slot on a ship but if I use the click slot method every deflector from every ship plus every deflector I have in my bank or maybe in my inventory comes up in an enormous list of deflectors and then I cant see the wood for the trees, if I just look in my bank I can quickly see exactly the deflector I want to take from the few I might have stored there.

sure they would, often you might have no need to go to the shipyard but you may need to visit the security NPC to drop off tribble carcasses, contraband or prisoners or you might have to go there for some other reason, and you might access the bank while you were there.
even if I do not use the bank at all I more often have to go to first city then the ship yard, also there is banking facilities at the KDF academy so if your argument is there should not be a bank at the ship yard because it would stop players using the one at first city then surely there should be no banking at the academy either.
I should not have to plan ahead or go to other areas just because I'm playing KDF when I don't need to do this when I'm playing fed as there is banking right there not more then 2 seconds from the fed shipyard NPC.
I have also just about maxed out my inventory slot purchases so cant buy any more, inventory slots is not a problem, but I should not have to carry stuff around and risk accidentally discarding it with other trash when I can safely store it in my bank till I need it.
at the end of the day all factions should be treated equally with regards to facilities if there is a bank terminal so conveniently placed in the ESD shipyard for feds & rom feds there should be banking facilities conveniently placed in the KDF shipyard for KDF & rom KDF.
I just cant see why anyone would be opposed to this, we have so many things taken away from us in recent times I just cant imagine why anyone would be against gaining something, if you prefer to use other places like Ganalda that's your choice and having a bank terminal at the KDF space dock wont alter that but I spend most of my time parked up around ESD for feds & fed roms and Qo'nos for KDFs and KDF roms as my homebase and so a conveniently placed bank terminal in both shipyards there would be of immense benefit to me, we already have the fed one just please give us one for KDF.
I agree it would be good if we had everything in one place like ESD but the KDF shipyard is much smaller and I don't want to loose out on a bank terminal just for the sake of asking for too much, we really need access to banking there, other stuff we can do fine at first city.
I am sure its not just a case of we will make that terminal a bank "click click" job done but I am also certain it would not be too much for them to add this for us, getting all the stuff you mention here would be a much larger undertaking.

My sense of "fair" says it would only be fair.
yet again I don't want to miss out on a bank terminal just because we ask for loads that would take the dev ages to implement, if the devs want to do a complete overhaul of kdf some time in the far distant future that's fine but a simple bank terminal would be a fairly easy fix that the devs could do now and that's when we need it now, not in the far distant future.
by keeping it simple we are more likely to get success.

Same should be done at the Romulan Command bay area too.

First City is just annoying. The shipyard is a separate instance that you have to run to the transporter to get to and the bank is as far away as possible. Simple terminals would help a lot.
The shipyard revamp doesn't need to be as large-scale as ESD because obviously, KDF is something of a playerbase minority and I get that developer resources are finite and precious. Still, something to remind the KDF that they're good for more than just conraband farming would be nice.
Qo'nos is one map like ESD.
I'm sorry, but you shouldn't go attacking others on the forum because they simply disagree with you. And you shouldn't blame others because you don't sell your stuff at the vendor to clear out inventory space before getting equipment to gear your ship(s).
While I don't disagree in adding banks consoles, given the new ESD, but poor Tacofangs is already up to his hip in work and has to take a couple of hours off his busy schedule to add in these consoles and make sure they work. Which nobody has complained about since the new Qo'nos map was added over three years ago. Same with player Starbases where nobody complained about having the bank on a seperate level than the shipyard.
It's an MMO, you can't put everything in one spot. The idea was to move around and make use of the map. Else, why are they even making maps for us in the first place?
i don't see how you thought I was attacking you in my response, I only pointed out the reason the your argument that new city bank would not be used if there was a bank at the kdf shipyard is flawed, if you take a counter argument as an attack then your argument was an attack itself so perhaps it is you who shouldn't go attacking others on the forum.
what I do with the equipment I have is my business, it is my choice if I keep sell or discard anything I have why would you think I blame others for my own choices.
just because nobody complained before does not mean I cannot raise the issue now if that were the case nobody would be able to complain about anything as at the first complaint you could say this hasn't been complained about before, having said that you are wrong in any case because I have raised this very issue some time ago so this has been complained about before.
just because the devs are busy with other things does not exclude me from asking for new stuff, if you check out many of the other threads on this forum you will see other players asking for new stuff quite a bit, or is it just me who is not allowed to ask for new stuff.
and finally how do you equate having a bank terminal at the space dock with having everything in one spot, theres plenty of other stuff not only in first city but also at the kdf academy so having a bank terminal at the space dock will not stop the need to move around and make use of all of the KDF maps.

For glory and honour, of course.
quite so but then everyone knows Klingons are lazy so you would think they would put a bank terminal within easy reach at the KDF shipyard.
