Anyway to get a feature that would allow us to reset training points while
still having lots of safe exp? Maybe some % of totals still left the you are
allowed to reset. It could cost cash like resetting boons for all i care, its
would be cheaper than having to reinc again because you typed int instead of
dex, I know im not the only person who has screwed themselves in this manner,
and the penalty of such a simple mistake is tremendous.

a bonus. Second of all, I didn't see any reasoning behind why the game should
be responsible for your mistakes. I mean, int vs dex is totally different, I
would understand if it was dex vs sex (no, you're not gonna get any).

i made, i believe i indeed metioned paying cash for it like clearing boons. Is
it different because i didnt pay rl cash for the training pts as i did boons?
I earned that bonus by doing quests etc, they were not just gifts from the
kindness of your hearts. The overall attitude here is lame and thats why the
playerbase is dying out. I fucked up and am dealing with it but if you dont
think that having a half-ass character until the next time I can afford to
reinc is a penalty, you are dead wrong. I made a mistake in the middle of a
reinc that takes days to complete, if nothing else the 4 hr grace period to
re-reinc should be based on % of exp left to regain since some people have a
life and might take a week to reinc. I have a lot more to say but it would
better said in bs so I'll end here.

The thing is, even if the clearing trainingpoints sounds like an ok idea, it's
not easy to make, as it might clear away some other bonuses you might not want
to part with. Nobody would like to lose bonuses like sailor-guild bonus etc.
Even though it would work on your case right now, and similiar screwed up
instantreincs, it might be broken for some others which is one of the reasons
I myself don't want to touch the subject with a long stick.

Maybe you forget the HUGE statloss that we took when that tune was
implemented, even _after_ the 'bonus'. But I don't.
Thats like your boss cutting your pay in half, but then giving half what he
took to you as a "bonus". Nice words, but its still a screwjob.

and after the tune. Granted, I had done a nice amount of quests at the time,
but the amount of quests has risen quite a lot after that, making the quests
give a lot more statpoints that were earlier impossible to achieve. If I
remember right, having about ~50-70 quests would be enough to correct the
balance, anything over that indeed was an uptune, a bonus.
So, instead of saying there was a huge statloss for players, one could state
there was a good gap made between creative players and those that only do the
same 2 areas every day.
Such a gap is a positive aspect in this game, I'd think. But that's just my
personal opinion.

reasonable freedom to tweak every aspect of your reinc before it's
officially finalized.
