Extremely Important

[Aqua]

I suggested this to Burter, but I'll go ahead and post it here for public opinion as well.

I said that another large problem with this (the biggest for me) is that it renders all gameplay useless until the time of the reset. All things gained from here till the reset will be lost.

My suggestion is to stock pile the finished RPs from this point on. So, when a thread needs to updated, staff simply moves the htread to a seperate board until the reset. Once the reset takes place, all the finished threads from now till then will be updated and the members will be rewarded for their work from this point on.

This does NOT defy the purpose of a reset, because staff would nly be rewarding the work from this point on. ya'll said that the purpose of the reset was to let everyone start out on the same playing field. this ption gives staff the time to iron things out and gives the members a reason to RP until that happens.

And this isn't like a bonus at all, so thinking of it like that ispointless. Think of it this way, if staff could snap their fingers and apply a perfectly ironed out re-set to Chubbs right this second they would. They can't though, it takes time. Well... most members aren't going to set around and play a game that will only give out a set minor bonus for four months of RPing. Instead, look at it as the RP reset happening from here on out, and people just having to wait for the reset to get their rewards.

This seems like thebest of both worlds to me. It allows the game to continue as members will have a reason to Rp from now till then. And it gives staff the time to get everything done then apply these newly aquired bonuses into the new system after the reset.

I see where staff might say that it would be a lot for them to mod... but consider this. there are like 13 staff members that can split it up. further, ythey will likely have the boost system figured out long before April. They can start posting the rewards in reply to the finished threads just as soon as they finalize the process then just apply the posted boosts after the reset.

thoughts?
