|
Can it be possible to make a system where players are able to give X number of RPAs to other players a month or something?
I really hate that (1) I'm out of RPAs to give and (2) that I have to always second guess myself to give RPAs because I don't want to be out of them if something else comes up later.

The problem is, for better or worse, you're asking us to allow players to give away free experience regularly.

So if they're being retards and abusing it, can their sorry asses. I honestly wish you had done the same to those abusing reallocations instead of just yanking reallocations...but that's a rant for another day.

so make it a boon of hitting 100, or having collected X number of RPAs from GMs, or something that just isn't "when you start HR, you can break things."
hell, make it so players have to apply for it.
let's make it all about me, then, in this example.
i've been here what, a year and a half or so? i've reached level 100, i'm well known in the game (for better or for worse), there are some NPCs (GM run or otherwise) who play along with the RP that Yaru's a little kid, I've never abused a single bug I've found (and I think I reported a good number of exploits), and so on. I think on some level or another, I've at least proved I'm capable of not trying to ruin the balance of HR or at least acting like a responsible player. I'm sure some of the other long-standing people have, too.
So make it like a GM application, only on a smaller scale. Instead of having super uber GM powers, just let the folks you feel are responsible be able to give out RPAs without needing some on their own. Make it a limited amount per month, or something. I don't think anyone's ever felt slighted if they were rejected as a GM, so I don't think anyone would flip out if they were turned down to do this, either.
But like with events like this morning, I saw some nice roleplaying by almost everyone/everyone involved. I would have liked to give more than the one RPA I had out. Or yesterday, when I had the person I've yet to Roleplay with do a pretty good show of closely looking at room descriptions and so on. I like seeing stuff like that, so I'd want to go "hey, nice job actually reading the room, have an RPA for showing that you feel the room description matters," and so on. But I can't do that, and I really wish I could.

Not to compare or say you should copy...
But DR had a nice system for that.
Elder players could pass out PIRPs (whatever that stood for. Player-involved RP? No clue.) and if a person got up to 5 PIRPs, they got an RPA.
Just a thought.

I hadn't heard of PIRPs but thought of something similar as my instant reaction when I made my last post. Let me muddle the issue over a bit.

Any update on something like this? Or even a system where (though it is slightly ooc) after you get so many RPA's you can do something with them other then giving them to people or using them. like an exchange rate, subject to certain stipulations.
So, I've got Five rpa's and I notice that I can turn in those RPA's at the Civie person for an IG reward ... minor alteration voucher, instant access to the vale, or a small little "prize" room that you can select a prize from tables that have minor, mediocre, and high end items depending on how many RPA's you turned in.
other then that, I do like the PIRP idea. Any updates?
