Posts: 814/2954		 Your lucre could be somehow tied into your MP, derived from how longyou have been here, and how many posts you have. Not exactly the MP(or the EXP Per Post) but according to some ration to it...

Yeah, then there's the problem of me being able to get into the market because of the battle hack incident, hehe And that falls under it not working for everyone like you said.

Well Darth, as long as the people you bring over stay active then you get the dough, if not, then no.

Posts: 95/7838		 Can I earn Lucre for telling people about the board? I converted Dark X, Steve the cat, and alot of people on the board...I know Steve (Cory) will be on this board alot, he lives...30 seconds from my house, not to mention hes done told people about this board, so yeah, people can deserve a little credit....

I dunno, im not telling you to give me Lucre, im just giving my thoughts.....

Posts: 1118/11757		 The Battle Arena is working ... somewhat (not for everyone).

I'm basically leaning on what the majority of you have said, it just doesn't seem needed.

Besides this, there are other ways to gaining quantities of Lucre, such as the "Bring Members", the "Game Reviews", etc.

But like Zabuza and others have said, if you just post and don't "worry" about your Lucre count, before you know it you'll be rich. I bought my Masamune through the Itemshop easily, and right now I myself can basically buy anything I want, while I still have good equipment. Just post, don't worry, then "Whoa" you'll have a lot to spend.

What no, if you want more lucre there is already a few ways to get it. Xeo has the bring someone along and get lucre and like Rogue said, be active, post a lot and save your money, then you will be able to buy things

Don't you need the battle arena to be up anyway to be able to use your new armour etc? last I saw it isn't working yet

Posts: 218/11918		 Heh, it's funny how people always take me too seriously (EDIT: or out of context), especially Beowulf.

Oh well. How 'bout this... post and be active. This is all meant to be fun, not something to ruin your day over.

Posts: 348/2785		 Considering the fact that I am the richest user on the board, and also don't use the lucre even though I did buy a few things, and I do contribute, and I write my stories, and I've lost my train of thought, why are we fighting about the structures of a fake money system when most people just make up the weapons and such they use in sim battles anyway?

And, to my understanding, you're given lucre on a per post basis, not a word-quantity of post basis. So, quit yer complainin' and post some good ol' crap, and you'll be rich beyond yer wildest dreams as well, ya damn whippersnappers.

Maybe if you saved up lucre, like I do, you'd have lots of it. But why are we arguing about this? We might as well argue about monopoly money while we're at it.


Richest and Poorest Users.
Richest User:
Zabuza with 105884 Lucre.
Poorest User:
Phalinx with 95 Lucre.

Posts: 236/1351		 Ummm... What's kinda post did Syntax just did?

Look, Rogue... Or whatever you go by now... Tamarin is setting a point that he doesn't want to experience directly first. He is just stating a point of proof where "we" could show a possibility outcome of a certain event. If we alway do it first before consider the action side effect, most people would be taking advantage of the whole thing and we would be making ourselves look pretty stupid.

So just take it easy, alright?

Sometime, it is better to set a example and show a point of simulation of a event that people MAY do in their behavior toward to these type of rules. We do NOT mean to offend you in any way but your current up-to-date knowledge can show and effect on how everyone would response in a new behavior if they knew one way of gaining Lucre by doing what you did.

Errr... I am just sleepy and my brain acting all freaky.

I just think this is a bad idea. Period.

No really, I don't care about this stuff (as I don't even sim battle) and hell, being an admin and can give or take it away, I don't really see a point in my having any.
Touchy today?

I was using you as an example, I'm sure others have copy-pasted articles into their posts before. That would lengthen the post, and under the proposed system that would get more money.

Sheesh. Sorry.

Well, here's the thing. It's possible to make long, meaningless posts. And it's possible to make short, meaningful posts. I've seen both extremes here numerous times. Also, what about the many times when Rogue copy-pastes an article into her posts in Current Events/Debate? She'd get more lucre for something that wasn't her work to begin with.


Note: I am not trying to say Rogue would abuse this, I'm merely pointing out a flaw in the idea.

Posts: 413/1779		 Well here's my view on it- it all comes down to the simple fact that you shouldn't post just to get money.

Nope.

I know exactly how to do it.

But the idea has too many flaws, in my opinion.


Yeah, thinking about this I'm sure people could do many things to "trick" the system.

Simply, hitting "space" a bunch of times. Maybe putting images in a post that takes up a lot of "character space".

I'm not exactly sure how this would work, but I agree that it would have it's flaws.

It's not a bad idea though, to think about.

Posts: 369/4541		 well, perhaps that is true.

So perhaps is could somehow not count quotes?

Posts: 233/1351		 It would be better off as we are right now. I mean, if everyone post 3 links to their pictures, we would might as well as call it 1000 Lucre for each link and I would be sticking rich as other people would too.

Not only that but Tamarin's right too. If everyone post a stupid spam that take up 10000 words, he or she would be cheating and we would have to stop meaningless lucre.

Plus, I don't see the problem with having lucre each time you post.
