Post subject:  Point System Suggestion

This post is going to be about adding in a point system. ( !shop or !store ) where every 10 seconds you get a point and or every kill ( or what ever you want it to be ). You could then spend these points to buy skins in game like hats, trails, or new player model skins in general. This would attract people to play on the server more to get the skins they want, and it also could create revenue for the server if people want to buy points for money. Now i know all of the downsides to this because i have played a lot on another server which has this and the only problems I've ever had was that people would frag whore for points ( kill as many people for points for the stupidest reasons ) but luckily this server has rules to prevent that like the warning rule or warden kills only. Now some people might say " O well people will just take warden to get all the kills, and i think that would be a good thing to see people warden that never take it, because personally i see the same wardens over and over. Obviously you have the no warden hog rule to prevent any abusers of this as well.

I know this might sound like a lot of work to add in but i think it would make the server 10x more fun to play on, and give people a goal to strive for to get the certain skin they want.

Just a idea

Thanks for reading

been suggested multiple times before and denied multiple times before. Me personally, think its a horrible idea.

I'd say no to this. With your idea, especially with the skins and hats, stuff like that will just ruin the gameplay for everyone. How will a CT determine who is a CT and who is a T if they have skins enabled. You have to take into factor any possible downside to having a !store in Jailbreak, especially one which would take the rest of Jailbreak, out of Jailbreak.

Minigames would be a more suitable place to have a !store, but again take away the skins and only have hats/trails/weapon colours/etc.

Won't work. Players have suggested it plenty of times, and I'll tell you now that it won't ever be added. Especially on a game mode like jailbreak, it's way too chaotic to add a store and/or point system. It'll only cause a distraction, and add more confusion to the game play itself. If it were to be added we'd have problems about so within a day or two. Not to mention any added store to a server only makes it 10 more times harder & slower to connect to the server with a constant need for an update. There's no benefit to adding a store to jailbreak besides your (not you, but you as in the whole server) own personal pleasure. Besides that, there's no need to add any gags to the server.

Points for kills would incentivize kill whoring and encourage the type of gameplay the warning rule is meant to prevent.

Seen it suggested, seen it denied. Everyone else pretty much explained as to why the idea is denied. My little reason? We want people to play for fun, not for points. Minigames on the other hand. Could work, but as needy said, it'd make the servers run pretty slow having to constantly update.

Also point systems require a sql db which is constantly updating and will require more out of the server which could crash it

I think it'd be neat on a different server, like minigames, but in jailbreak it's a definite no.

I think custom player models should be added for people who want to pay real-life money, and don't make it super cheap.

It won't be visually offensive and will generate more money for the clan.
