Wassgud I was wondering if a point system for Jailbreak and MG could possibly be implemented because from past experience on my last JB server it was relatively popular among several various players Overall items such Hats, Trails, Skins, etc. would be very fun to have. To elaborate on how this would work, a given player would type the command !store and it would show up the menu to buy items in categories. The way a player would earn a point per minute would be by someone like doldol or whoever sets up JB to enable a credit to be earned every minute within the server for all players and it will gradually increase, allowing players to eventually purchase whatever they choose. Other ways could include buy purchasing points by sending donations to EGN and making a post in a certain section (using a format with steam id, etc.) then a staff member or higher could of-course distribute the points accordingly in-game. This will obviously be very beneficial to EGN financial wise if many regulars want to get points quickly. Aside from that they could also earn points during events (the points would be the prizes) and me and Yio are trying to talk to staff to get an event set up soon too. I am also aware other priorities come first for staff, so this isn't urgent so it doesn't need to happen asap just something to consider for the future


Now before y'all say shit like "Naw bruh this idea ass", please consider it before having an immediate objection.

Thank y'all for reading, preciate it

There are uncountable ways that this could be beneficial for both players and the community itself.. Chaos_Boss never ceases to impress me with his proactive dedication. Hoping this could be looked at and thought about thoroughly.

It's been brought up, looked at, discussed, it's not something the community has been overall interested in having, creating, or managing. That's not to say that feeling hasn't changed over time, but in the past it's not necessarily been wanted.

New year, new leader, and new members. In my opinion, the main reason the older generations weren't wanting a point shop was because it's always been a highly "vanilla" set of servers (well... mostly vanilla). However, we haven't really been all that vanilla for almost a year now, after we added automated LR, warden plugins, etc. to our jailbreak server. Even the minigames server wasn't technically all that vanilla with the rtd plugin. After seeing how successful the lr plugin and warden plugin were (when they didn't crash the server horrendously...), I think it'd an idea worth putting to the test.

Whereas I used to not be all that interested in the idea, I now think that as long as we don't go too overboard (to the point it takes any longer than 5-10 minutes to download all the needed content), it could actually be quite interesting to start introducing things like a pointshop (possibly a universal one, between all our CS:S servers). Worst case scenario, if we try it and don't like it (or problems come up), we can remove it like we've done with other plugins that haven't quite worked out.
Beep boop.

In my opinion no and always no if you get points for kills.

I'd have to agree there. For one, CT's would always have more points than T's, and two, the last thing we need is CT's looking for even more reason to be nazis.

It should be primarily time based if we have it.

If we get one, has to be time based. Not killed based.

You are right here but the problem I personally see with adding a store and/or a point system would be the maintenance. We dont have anyone int he Staff+ team who has the time and effort to keep it maintained. We've had store come up a lot of times and always comes up as a no. Store on jailbreak personally wouldn't work?

Theoretically, if it's planned and deployed correctly there wouldn't need to be maintenance truly. It's just getting / creating a compatible store that the community would want, if they even want one.
