Suggestion: Buy rep with Plat?

[Hankomachos]

After much consideration and thought, The White Knight has came up with a great idea to fully enhance your forum experience!

BUY REP WITH PLAT

Alright folks, let's face it, obtaining rep is hard, right? People have been working extremely hard to obtain it, but have been ending up getting flamed, getting a thread lock, thread deletion or ultimately: banned.
The White Knight wants to put an end to this, once and for all. Which is how he came up with this idea.

Just like in PL, you can gain XP, but you have to work hard for it.

Unless....

You buy an XP elixir with plat! With that, you're speeding up your levelling process, therefore you're hitting higher levels even quicker than before.

or...

You can get someone of a higher level than you to run levels with you, blasting through mobs, you're clearing quicker thus also speeding up levelling. (Mainly at lower levels) Also known as power levelling.

Which brings me to my new idea: Why not be able to increase your forum rep, for platinum?
The proper term, of course, would be "Power-Repping".

Here's the possible price per rep list that The White Knight thought up:

Single Order Rep= 50reps: 15plat
Combo Size Rep= 100Reps: 25plat
Double Decker Rep= 200reps: 45plat
Buffet Rep= 1000rep: 165plat
Full bar= Maximum rep possible to obtain: 200plat/Bronx Bomber and a Crafted Oyster Set.



Thoughts?

(Meant to be for humorous purposes, try not to take it to heart)

STS would be rolling in the dough...

[Skeletonlord]

Buying reputation with platinum would make Spacetime Studios extremely bigger as a company, however, if people were to buy reputation with platinum, that kinda spoils the fact that you have to earn it in the first place don't it?

Just my two cents....

[Hankomachos]

you have to earn it in the first place

Indeed. People should be EARNING
their rep.

Any chance us non-plat egomaniacs can buy 1.5x Rep elixirs for gold? That way we can earn it, at an increased rate of course, and still feel superior.

Yes, if Rep elixirs are implemented gold ones will be also.

I'll see you're Bronx Bomber and raise you a Squirrel!

[Hankomachos]

I thought of something else. What about a free daily rep? It would be for those who can't earn their own rep the hard way, nor can they afford to buy it. Everyday when the user logs in (please note it would only be every 24h) they earn a free reputation point? That way everyone feels special!

I would pay any amount of plat for a Squirrel.

[Elyseon]

Such a brilliant idea, that...
Ill give you -FREE REP-!!!!!!
Hope you enjoy

Also maybe a double rep weekend?

[RedRyder]

Rep isn't hard to obtain at all. I think the white knight should take a seat

[NECROREAPER]

What about a free daily rep-lixir?

[Hankomachos]

What about poor ol' Jimmy who keeps trying to "help" but doesn't get compensated (With rep) in return? Well now he can by Power-Repping!

Will this be a combo elixir with 2X Reply Speed, 2X Troll Armor and 2X Sarcasm Detection Rate or will those be sold separately?

It's actually 3x reply speed/troll armor/sarcasm detection rate. 2x isn't enough.
And yes, all included in the daily!
Of course, you can buy said above separately too, for plat of course.

Seeing as you can more or less buy your way to max repel, (rep+level=repel) there isn't really anything to achieve....


Except...

-I have nothing better to spend my money on- Achievement

and....

-My ego is now 7green bars long- Achievement.


=D
