I think it is cool that you give out such big perks for role contests. I just think it is less cool that it takes 1000 times the effort/luck to get equivolent rewards through other means and as a player who generally thinks the role command is a waste of everyones time I would like to see rewards doled out more for what actually happens in the game as opposed to fantasy fiction writing skills.

I think roles are a waste of time because I just don't think it serves much purpose outside of shortening empowerment interviews. I mean you get monthly complaints about role XP either being too much or not enough. You get people who write walls of text that actually say very little of use that consume large amounts of your time to read, etc. The whole is this questionable behavior in role thing... if it is questionable it shouldn't matter if it is in their role so it shouldn't matter that the role is there.

Then back to the begining there is the huge disparity in rewarding people for what goes on outside the game with big in game mechanical bonuses vs getting rewarded for things done in game with largely cosmetic rewards (titles/lastname)
