Krazie Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 I was thinking the vote reward NPC can have a new option, to sell the voting items that you no longer use or need. For Example, say you bought Piamette Ears from the vote reward NPC but you don't use it anymore because you found another item that's much more useful for your character and since you can't trade or sell voting items let the vote reward NPC have the option to purchase your voting items for 1/3 of what the item was worth. So for example Piamette Ears are worth 60 vote tokens 60/3 you would get 20 toks in return for the headgear. What do you guys think?
Everyone Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 I'm fairly sure this was suggested once before and rejected due to the fact that we wanted people to keep voting daily, especially when the newer items come out. I have at least 40 voting items, I wouldn't have to vote for a long time if I could just cash 'em in for the newest thing. It's not a bad idea, I would just be prepared for a 'no'.
Krazie Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Posted November 29, 2011 I see, ok but how bout instead of recieving Voting tokens how about recieving Donation tokens or Event tokens that way people will still keep voting daily and instead of 1/3 how about 1/10 or 10% because 1/3 of Event/Donation tokens is a little to much, just like the servers MVP card drop 10%. So Piamette Ears are 60 60/10 you would get 6 Event/Donation tokens. This way people would still keep voting daily and those people who are dedicated can recieve something in return like you; you have 40 voting items that takes serious voting dedication and 40 voting items thats like years of voting and I'm sure you don't use all of those items so why not sell themem for a couple of toks ;)
Kittie Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 I'd be in favor of a 1:1 trade into activity tokens! 1
Boogieman Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 I would lean more towards a 1/10 for Event Tokens considering the majority commonly and consistently go to the same groups of people(sotw regulars,pvp-based event winners,etc.) and anymore than 10% would invite the economy into the suggestion. Activity Tokens are designed to keep us in-game. Voting Tokens are designed to keep us voting. And I'm just going to guess that Donation Tokens are definitely not an option. I'm sure the workload will come into question since they'll have to modify 2 NPC's everytime they implement 1 new voting item.
Aerynth Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 If this is done, which most likely will not, I feel. I'd favor for activity tokens, reasons why. We can't possibly get as much token out from it, and activity token wouldn't hurt the economy in any way. Plus, event tokens and donation tokens, is a no for me. People that voted for a long time would definitely trade most of their stuff in for tokens. Hurm, also.. I don't think its that great of an idea tho, cause the vote items are pretty neat. The only problem we have is the scarf I believe, so why do we still need the Npc again?
Justice Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 The problems I see with this are: -We don't use the npc anymore (to avoid loss of tokens from a full inventory and such) -This could take votes away from the server. Any percentage of return on tokens is a loss for us, which isn't really good. -And exchanging them for activity tokens would take away the purpose of both the Vote Tokens AND the Activity Tokens. If this were to happen, I could only see an exchange of Vote to Event being close to remotely fair. :/ Sorry, but I just don't think this suggestion will happen.
