Faction Levels Suggestion

[Thaal Sinestro]

Right, but I'm also saying that people don't automatically apply for the Bonus, and that the bonus grading system takes forever. It's also not a new CODED system, it's not automatic, it's just something that the players can do for themselves, manually, instead of a mod having to do it. I mean, look at the bonus request thread, it's overwhelmed and the mods are already overburdened. Having a simple, reliable way for the Factions and players to have a way of gaining Faction EXP without the intervention of a mods grading things is like... pretty necessary. Especially considering that almost every thread that people within Factions write is with another player.

If you re-read the suggestion, I outline how the players themselves would be able to determine their own Faction EXP. If the players then want to ALSO turn it in for the Bonus Request thread, they can totally do that, but without having to worry that nobody will ever get around to reading their thread and awarding them FXP.

When it comes to the players making their own artifact, THAT can be approved like it would be approved through the Move Approval thread.

Additionally, I'm trying to talk about how to offer bonus OM, trying to think of ways to do it other than as something that the mods would have to grade. The CURRENT Quest turn in system takes weeks and weeks to get approved, so again, adding more for the Mods to do doesn't sound like it would work out very well. Do you want the Faction leaders to approve the thread? If it meets a word count and the Faction leader approves it, all a mod would have to do is add the OM, which only takes a couple minutes as opposed to having to read the thread, grade it, and then apply the bonus.
