Yeah I loved the old stat system. I'd come home from school and be like "training day"!!!
I enjoy writing regardless but there's just something about looking at a list and being able to watch your characters status rise. Even though Ive switched enough times to count with both hands And i never reached a really powerful point i just can't explain it. It's like the competitiveness that drives a person. Sure I agree with you that gaining xp for quantity is not as good as when it was for quality but when you know there's something more to gain than just another post count increase that's motivation in itself.
The only problem with a system like that was it required/requires staff to update a lot. Idk, theres downsides from both perspectives but I wouldnt say that is the reason for chubbs decline.
