I feel that the reward process is pretty good. With role contests monthly, and most everyone with a role getting SOME amount of imm exp at least in the early stages of the characters life, its fair to say a chars gonna get at least a little love at some point. A couple issues I have seen that I think if adressed would make a pretty fair deal of difference, my opinion of course.

First, Character time. 400, 500 hours. Hell, even 300 hours is a LOT of time to put into a character. Some people dont play 40 hours a week. Some can only play 5, or 6, or 10, and so on. It seems the reward system currently is not so much rewarding older hour chars (not saying it isnt at all, just not as much) as much as they are rewarding the guys that play 5-6-10 hours a day. I understand because theyre around more = more chances for imms to see and reward, but its kinda depressing to see some of these chars deleting with 300 + hours and they dont even have their last name. Same goes for caballed chars vs non caballed ones. Non caballed chars tend to get noticed a lot slower and less, and reap less rewards in general. My soulution to that would be to kick up the attention a little after the 300 hour mark or so. Im not saying quest spells, or even imm exp. But how hard would it be to take 10 minutes and control a random mob and rp a little bit with a random char, for no reason whatsoever. Its the little experiences like that that DEFINE a character and make them want to move on. The reason Grummorum was such a loved imm for his time was because login to logoff, that man was interacting. It didnt matter who you were, he could pop in anytime as any mob and instantly revive the interest in the charater. Very recently there was an activity in the weald, and that type of thing is what keeps people going. Mini quests in cabals, Mini global quests where people compete to complete a tasks...basically I think the immortals should spend LESS time wizinvis and I think that MORE face time with interactions, or just visible in general would GREATLY improve the quality of the game. When people start hearing about all these cool events and global quests and stuff...they tend to come back to cf. Anyone remember how fun the ice drake stuff was with warlocks? Or how bout the Anti-life? whens the last time we saw him?

People keep saying that complaining without a soulution is useless. I think I just posted a pretty fair solution that takes little to no coding and hardly any time, and I guarantee the playerbase would LOVE you for it.

Anyways, just thought I would post what I would like to see more. Im a player thats left and returned quite a few times over the last 12 years, so I guess I'm the average "player". Anyone else feel the same way? What do you imms think bout this?
