Lower Numbers, QPS, Incentives

Post by Lucore » Mon Mar 27, 2017 7:14 pm

Hey all

Numbers are pretty limited these days, particularly but not limited to the in Au timeslot.

Ive made two observations lately, the first is because of the lack of Pk, people log on, basically idle wanting/waiting for something to happen that never does.

The second is the high rate at people actually do complete mobol quests. I was never one of them until recently, and only now realised people will log in to do that.

Alot of clanned people go by the wayside since there's not alot of opportunity to progress their character anymore due to the lack of scalps available, and doing quests only takes you so far

So without getting long winded, whats people's and the Imms thoughts of say giving the smob chains or even all smobs a chance at loading tin chits or something similar, to be handed in at clan heads for x amount of qps.

I think it'd serve well to get people on their clan alts and have some sort of consistent way to advance their character again

I like that idea.

I will also use this thread to remind people to post their RP logs to the RP forum as this can also yield some qps.

NO.

For one tin chits have been removed, and for good reason. For another, people were smobbing on their powerful alts and then moving the chits to alts to fast track their ranking. Anything similar would have the same issues.

This issue was raised a few months ago too and I've been wanting to look into some reward for smobbing, but I haven't managed to put together something un-farmable, un-altable and generally un-cheatable yet. Going to lock this since it's something that is ideally going to happen eventually, if it can be made to work.
