Transferring Points (Halloween)
Started By
I've had the problem of having points on my main and side account that (put together) would enable me to buy something from the points shop, but not being able to transfer them. I think it would be a good idea if points could be transferred between your side and main account to fix this conflict. Who's with me?
EDIT: Users have been stating that by transferring points between accounts, it would be far easier to obtain items (thus making their rarity go down). I believe that if this is put into action, the number of points required should increase a bit.

No support for the edit either..I work full time and have school I do not have enough time to attack on both accounts.<br /> =/ It'd be an unfair decision for people who cannot make it to the browser every 20 minutes.

Ooze... can I just kiss you? This is such a wonderful idea and I would love it so much. Honestly. I know that without it I am going to buy items on both my accounts at the last minute and then come up a few points short of what I really wanted. Support support support!

No support.<br /> <br /> If you have enough points on one account for an item you want, just buy it and send it to which account you want it at.<br /> But being able to transfer points, meh, kinda takes the fun away.

I agree, Leondra.. I am on the border between what Silas is saying, and believing this was a bad idea all together.

What I meant is that though they are doing it already attacking themselves and so on. People can find ways to cheap you'd be surprised. I do kinda agree with upping the point price if the point transfer would be added to help items stay in the rare/uncommon so that way if someone does choose to sell it that it doesn't take forever to since there are so many out there or it gets sold for lesser than they expected.

It sounds like a good idea, but no. If you could transfer points, and because you could transfer points the amount of points it would take to get the items out of the shop increased, then there would be no point to being able to transfer points. It seems the point behind your idea would be to make it easier to get the items, so if being able to transfer points made things in the point shop more expensive, wouldn't it then cancel out and make moot the ability to transfer your points from one account to another?

So long as points can only be transferred between side and main accounts, I don't see how it could lead to cheating. However, I do see the disadvantage of the rarity going down (which would not be good at all)..

I still don't support, in fact, I would be very displeased if the edited suggestion were put into the site.

If we are going to pretty much double the amount of points we can get, we should have to double the amount of points things cost in the shops. Demon Wings would cost 2000pts :T

But Silas, cheating would be terribly hard. Technically, it's only transferring points between linked accounts... Therefore, preventing anyone else from sending you points.<br /> <br /> EDIT:<br /> From what I understand, anyways. Sorry if I misunderstood. x.x<br /> <br /> But yeah, I'm leaning more towards the no support because of the rare items.

I do support and do not reasons: One, it easier to get the items that you want from the point store and two it may lead to cheating. You have to look at both sides to this type of thing so it's a little ify so I think that's why they made where you can't transfer points to avoid that problem.

Very true, Quagga. I thought of that also.

Actually... I kind of retract my support.<br /> It would make users be able to obtain the rare items so much easier and would drastically reduce their rarity.

I'm not sure where I stand on this. In one sense, it would be nice because then it wouldn't feel like it's impossible to get an item - especially for those having trouble getting points. It would be a bit more encouraging. But on the other hand, it might be TOO easy for some...
