Forum Activity Suggestion by Or8 November 12, 2016 at 3:11 PM UTC

There used to be like 20+ pple on forums now there's only about 6, maybe we should give small awards for getting on the forums or smthn?

DaFrozenBlaze November 12, 2016 at 3:11 PM UTC

no

ProfessorUtonium November 12, 2016 at 3:11 PM UTC

What would these awards do? What would players receive? is the award for only joining the first time on the forums or overall activity?

I like this idea regarding awarding players who register for the forums but you'd need to be less vague regarding how this would work :P

ProfessorUtonium November 12, 2016 at 3:11 PM UTC

no
you'd get all the awards though


why not?

Zeusy November 12, 2016 at 3:11 PM UTC

this guy is the new zinteka

Lasuz November 12, 2016 at 4:11 PM UTC

nope. Like how would the system be? someone is just gona type in random words in many topics and then get the reward(s). I want people that actually care about the topic to comment, rather then ppl I know just is there for the reward.

I was thinking it would be based on how many times a day you log on, or how many posts you read...  I see it can be easily abused, do you have any suggestions that would prevent that

I like this idea, but what would you get? How would it be worth trying to get? How is the goal useful, and worth trying to achieve?

Also- Let's keep this on topic. It's starting to become a hate post.

well hmm, if you guys are willing to make a leveling system which give support credits every level, it could just five you experience?

A leveling won't happen unless Keenan changes his mind.
If you've heard or prestiges, that is a leveling system that Avicus used to have that everyone loved, it got taken away and quite a few people quit Avicus because it got boring and now Keenan keeps on saying that he won't re-implement it regardless of what the community wants.

If Keenan was open to it, sure. The response I've gotten for the reason it's not being added back is because it is too difficult to create new levels every time someone reaches the highest level. I asked if it was possible to just have infinite levels, and they don't know. I'm not sure if this is a possibility but I like the idea. Either way, let's try to think of some ideas that would work now. 

While typing this I had an idea: What if each achievement you got was a badge, or a badge color. And it would go into your backpack, and you could use it whenever you would like. It would advertise the forums, as well as give players a reason to look on the forums, and be active.

Pretty much this. Before, every prestige had a unique badge/symbol. It would be too difficult (nigh impossible, actually) to add a badge for immeasurable numbers of prestiges.

I like the credit and levelling system that could work if again Keenan wants it. But also my suggestion is like achievements type thing?

Okiba November 13, 2016 at 1:11 AM UTC

what did I do
everything

But what is the point of an acheivment? No one is going to want to work for something that's just a personal goal that doesn't give you a any benefit. Something in-game would give a reason to work to get an award. Something that you can show off, an enjoy expressing about yourself.

Level 50: 1.2x credits 
level 100:1.5x credits 
level 150:1.7x credits 
level 200 :2x credits
level 250(max, special badge) ;2.5x credits 

also an increasing amount of credit awards each level

Staff change the title to something more appropriate please

Done, but the creator of the thread can edit it himself just so you know. :-)

Eh, tbh increasing credits wouldn't work, as it looks like the Admins are trying to increase what you get by donating. Removig credits pretty much kills the rest of the donor ranks as you don't get much anyhow.

Prestiges were always the best, it gave a personal goal, and would also get a lot of the server to compete to see who can get to the highest prestige. If unlimited prestiges happen, I guess it can go for who can sustain the highest prestige.

I think its a good idea. But you have to make people interested by being in the forums, and staff comments interesting things.

Weekly staff updates??  no matter how small the change is

Diabolicx November 16, 2016 at 1:11 PM UTC

It could make forum spam more common which is bad

Would it be enough to keep people satisfied though? Like I could make a post about the changes in our Social Media department, though in the grand scheme of things, it isn't really a big deal and I'm not sure how many people would be interested to read about that

Yeah you're right
