(just curious wht some players and XMs think of this)

many a time a player finds a gold bpp he doesnt need.
wouldnt it b interesting (especially for interplayer relations) if u could like let anyone he chooses (even if the player he chooses isnt in his sq ) have at least 1 gold bpp per day tht he found? (could b applied even to blue/cyan bpps)
no idea wht it would take from coding aspect but id find it interesting + they could sell modules to enhance the amount u could give away in a day.

itd open up some extra posibilities and would not always b so easy for the person u want to give it to to get to ur spot in time.lol (as i know 5 mins is the time atm til golds dissapear)

Wraith,

That is an excellent idea. From a players point of view. But, devs won't like it. Because it could make other players shoot less and spend less time in the game.

Maybe it would even stimulate certain trading instincts in pilots. And we all seen what our LMOD Adrana replied on a 'black market' idea. In short ; 'Not gonna happen! She doesn't like it.' It seems to be vulnerable to abuse.

But the miserable frustration of getting 30 rare bp's , THAT U DON'T WANT, and not that last BP you are lookin for, is obviously of no importance to developers.

The BP's Booster is a total rip off for people who have about 80% of the rares. You just get loads of rares that u allready have. Getting the rares is total frustration and time consuming on an epic scale, especially in Draconis.

Believe me, after a few months around here again, i see where your idea comes from. And it's something that would make life a little easier. So > It will die faster the a snowball in hell

It would be so easy to make money from this.

Make A Rare BP vault, players can buy it to store 10 to 20 Golds. (30 days runningtime) 3500,- Gold or something like it. Everytime they want to 'transfer a gold' > the receiving player pays 1000,- gold to SS. As much as a 3 hour enhanced booster or something like it.

A player can get a BP's transfered if he has a Rara BP vault himself. So to be able to buy 1 rare bps, you must invest urself and pay everytime to SS.

But then again. I have no idea why i even think about idea's and put them here.

i and others like me where more ehthusiastic in beta before we saw noone seemed to bother with ideas or even responding to them, but i play my share of online games and i cant change my character just cause one turns out to b a dud.
so even if not such deep thought out ideas i still type up some top of the head ones even if they dont bear fruit or arent good or even doable.
and btw if a GM or LFM as u say doesnt like an idea doesnt mean others dont or its not a good one. were all different.+ he/she has the same right to an opinion as all.

Hello Wraith,

Off course, just post the idea's. What you posted about the rares is a wish i heard many players speak out loud many times.

About Adrana's opinions. From a Lead MODERATOR i expect a moderate and balanced reaction in forum's. Not her opinion. A moderator should not express opinions on idea's on her own behalf in position of moderator.

If she want's to give her personal opinion, with all due respect, she should do that under a player name. So it's level playingfield. Now, as a player, I constantly get the impression that something will not happen because she does not like it. And because of her position i feel like we as players will be overruled by someone close(r) to game developers.

In my opinion Moderators should withhold from giving their opinion on idea's at all. Just moderate.
A moderator is restricted by his / her function.

Don't misunderstand my remark, i think she does a good job mostly and i respect her for the fact that she does put time and effort in this 'community'.

Back to topic.

What did u think of the idea of giving the players a possibility to 'transfer' rares? yes it does cost money, but Splitscreen has to make some money. And this way non paying players could still get the rares through investing time. And some players that invest some money could get some rares that jus keep eluding them and that don;t have the endless hours to keep looking. In between, Splitscreen would make money. Everybody happy.

Thx.

I would like to comment on your post, if you are reffering to the suggestions players make on the forum. Those are viewed by the GM's and then passed on to the developers. Adrana is not part of this, even though she might give some good advice about the suggested idea. Also I would like you to know is, the GM's aswell as the forum Moderators, are all volunteers. They all give up spare time to help the community. I hope you can do something with this information.

not on topic but since im a bit of a "forumoholic" ill try advise with few lines:
even though i accept all opinions its best to base opinions on facts.
fact is: - u dont really get to decide who is allowed to do wht in this game or forums, now i could start speculating from where u get ur fixed opinion of who is allowed to do wht but its irrelevant.

FACT: (and pls try to act on this one) - tis not wise to talk about others without them agreeing to it especially when naming and in a "negative" manner. (even if u try to say at the end "good job" ur singling out and criticising in end effect)
also gets threads in trouble and/or locked.

Maybe it would even stimulate certain trading instincts in pilots. And we all seen what our LMOD Adrana replied on a 'black market' idea. In short ; 'Not gonna happen! She doesn't like it.' It seems to be vulnerable to abuse.

This is your opinion, as you are talking about opinions here.
My words in my 2nd post in the thread you are referring to:
I love PG for to not have that option, as I said before, it is the sprung of all abuse and cheating, and unfair advantages to elder player so to say Vets.
There are ideas I like, and ideas I dislike, just as any user on this forum,
when the Devs read the suggestions, they will not look, Adrana doesn't like this, we do not do this.
First of all, I think the users should read my posts on the thread Defcon is mentioning here:
http://forum.pirategalaxy.com/viewtopic.php?f=253&t=17857&p=117551#p112403
You can read there is negative opinions from the other users in that thread, all except your post Defcon.

About Adrana's opinions. From a Lead MODERATOR i expect a moderate and balanced reaction in forum's. Not her opinion. A moderator should not express opinions on idea's on her own behalf in position of moderator.

I am entitled to an opinion as any user, but usually when I post a reply, I do it with knowledge, and I do have a good memory of what has been posted, and replied to topics, and ideas/suggestions.
I also am aware of why an idea might not be accepted, and I post thew reasons why, and don't write a straight No.
When I post my reply, I do it with knowledge of previous posts what has been written about same,
or same style of subject, I do not write a straight NO, I write also explaining why an idea might not work, or be accepted, that is not totally my opinion, but the procedure in the past with same kind of ideas.
I have been here on the staff for 1 year, and almost 7 months. I am working voluntarily, and most of this time solo, with no Fm's.
I have dedicated my time, and effort to this, cause I want to do it, and I love our community,
it is out of my gaming time, but that is my choice.
Most users here has become to know me, and I am no stranger, and they also mostly can understand my view of points when I write a reply.
Also most users know they can turn to me, and write a pm if they have something on their hearts, or if they have questions they do not want to post on public forum.
I have always had time for our users.


If she want's to give her personal opinion, with all due respect, she should do that under a player name. So it's level playingfield. Now, as a player, I constantly get the impression that something will not happen because she does not like it. And because of her position i feel like we as players will be overruled by someone close(r) to game developers.

Repeating here again, the Devs will not overrule my writings over the users opinions,
as in the Blackmarket topic, they will read what is the opinion of most posters.
But the trading system has always been turned down, and I also explained it clearly in my post why.

It seems you have always something negative to say about me, and my work I do here.


In my opinion Moderators should withhold from giving their opinion on idea's at all. Just moderate.
A moderator is restricted by his / her function.

Again, that is your opinion.
Finally if you think and feel I am abusing my powers, you are very welcome to file a report about me and my work I do here to my superior, CM Astraeus, you can do it via forum pm.
If you are not filing a report, I suggest you stop post your opinions about me, and my work I do,
before you find yourself stepping the line.
Till then I will work as I have always done, and I will use my knowledge in order to help users, and post my comments, replies, and be here for our users when they need.
FACT: (and pls try to act on this one) - tis not wise to talk about others without them agreeing to it especially when naming and in a "negative" manner. (even if u try to say at the end "good job" ur singling out and criticizing in end effect)
also gets threads in trouble and/or locked.
Now to this, WRAITH1 is absolutely right, was very well written, and he is also right about that other users might get threads locked and in trouble when accusing, naming other users in a negative way in threads.
I recommend to stay on topic, and keep such opinions restricted to yourselves, or write to person in question a pm, but I would be very careful of what to write and comment on any user/staff in threads.

Well, i feel i have offended you Adrana, since i get such explicit reaction.

That was not my intention, but as Wraith pointed out, people might get that impression, even though i pointed out that i thank you for the time and effort you put in here. And i am happy to do that again now.

I will 'moderate' myself a bit and reply more carefully in future posts.

All FM in the Forum as well as GM in the game, have volunteered their time to do their Jobs. As for any perks they may or may not get, that is not for any player or Forum poster to remark on. I have also read all these posts that Adranna has replied to & have come to the conclusion that you folks that post all the Negativity here are mainly Jealous due to probably having applied to a FM or GM position & been denied.

This Forum (Pirate Galaxy), is supposed to be for passing on Information to others, including the Dev Team, GM Team & FM Team in a manner that is "Constructive" rather than "Destructive". If you dont have the Respect of any of the Teams in Pirate Galaxy or maybe even for yourself (as observed by Posts Made), then dont post anything at all.

If you want to be involved with posting for Social Reasons with those that share your ViewPoints, there is many "Social Forums" available for that. This Forum does not have your type of Soap Box to stand on
