Dilithium Sharing through Account Bank Please!

This is a request for the ability to share dilithium between all of my alts through my account bank(like ec sharing). This should be implemented because it is already possible and quite easy to share dilithium between my characters, and doing it the current way just requires more effort then this would.

I thought WoW's forums had angry elitist snobs, but I never could have imagined the level STO forums has.

Agreed! I'd love to see this feature added as well!
If you want it easy, then why not propose all refined dilithium is pooled in the account, much like zen? Fairly easy to sell to Cryptic too, as Cryptic/PWE want us to spend, spend, spend, and people are far quicker to impulse buy when they don't see their money. (People who pay with debit or credit cards far outspend people who still carry cash, cause they don't actually ever really get to say goodbye to their money. They also get in financial trouble more, but that's not the shopkeeper's problem.)
Anyway, I'm neutral to the whole idea. I don't think the current way is bad, but I don't see a change hurting me.
[1] 'sell' your dill at a ridiculous rate (25:1)
[2] Switch toons
[3] 'cancel' the transaction
Voila - you 'ave dilithium
Startpost reading already exists.
[1] read the post
[2] notice the OP is already talking about a way that already exists
[3] don't make that post
Voila - one less post
Zen = Actual money
PWE will not allow you to mine multiple alts to make money off of them. Just put the Dilithium on the exchange at a ridiculously low or high rate of exchange.
Change characters.
Cancel the offer.
Done.
And another who doesn't read the startpost or any of the still few replys.
Its like everybody thinks that dilithium exchange thing is a big secret and they want to be the first to reveal it and don't waste time rading anything of the thread in case someone could be faster in revealing it than they.
Kirk's Protege.
Go to a bank - or summon a bank to you. Transfer the Dilithium into the bank. Log into new character. Go to the bank - or summon a bank to you. Collect the Dilithium.
The current method requires no travel, no zoning, click a couple of clicks and you're done.
However, I do have a question about trading dilithium between accounts.
Say I have a friend who mines it when he's bored, doesn't really want any of the stuff on the c-store and has his ship loaded out with whatever equipment he wants so he doesn't need it to buy new stuff. If he wants to give me his dilithium to help me save up and pay for something, is it possible to do that?
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that the exchange could help with that but I don't remember exactly how it went or if I even imagined it. :P
It would obviously be between two different accounts so the above way of sharing between characters wouldn't work, but is there a way to do it?
This is mainly out of curiosity, everyone i know holds on to their dilithium like a Ferengi holds on to their latinum. :P
Yes there is a way, but it is highly risky in that he would have to sell said zen for some outlandish rate of let's say a ratio of zen 100:25 dilthium and you would have to buy at the same rate. Again this is at a risk because someone else could buy it before you, so timing is critical.

First: That wasnt the point.
Instead the point was that the original poster was already aware of this...
And than along comes ddesjardins
Which my point was that IF he had read the startpost he would have known that he is saying something already known to the original poster.
Second: You don't have to log into another character to cancel the sale, you can if you want to cancel it right away with the char who had the dilithium.
That's beside the point. You still need to log into your new character to claim the Dilithium. When you do the cancel is meaningless to the process.
The original poster said: monkeys eat some long yellow fruit
Then the other guy said: Monkeys eat bananas
And then I said: If he had read the post, he would have known the op meant bananas
Then you accused me of missing the point by saying: The guy meant its a lot quicker to peel a banana from the top or the bottom not from the middle.
DO you get it now?
In those 3 posts where absolutely no talk about how fast something is, just if it already exists.
Thats why I wrote "if you want"....your explanation before looked like that you HAVE TO cancel it on the other account.
