OK, so 600M exp for 600 TP's wouldn't be 4 full boons then... even better.
In addition, if 1TP could be bought with 1M exp + 100k gold that would be a
good way to get rid of both exp and cash AND people whining about "we don't
have a chance to get TP's beacuse donations aren't open whaaa!".
Donating RL cash should be rewarded with advantages, but on the other hand,
since BATmud is free of charge "hard work" should be (in theory) as rewarding
as "buying" advantages too.
I doubt buying TP's with exp+cash would affect the balance in a negative way,
quite opposite I think (since it would take a LOT of gametime to regain say
400M exp).

better. be a don\'t whaaa!\". hand, as rewarding negative way, say I\'ll just say, I like this idea.

I see nothing wrong with it.

a don\'t whaaa!\".

My opinions about this: not a good idea. Why?

One of the good things of this game is that there are more than one thing
to be gained to be a powerful character. Taskpoints are one thing, eq is
another and exp is the final thing determining your character. These
things should be kept as separate as possible.

Linked to this is that exp gain is almost linear to time spent in the
game, resulting that exp can be made in indefinate amounts with a lot of
spent time, it\'s not even hard. Taskpoints should not be gained this
easy.

Also connected to this is rebirth you mentioned in earlier posts. This
would make rebirthing pretty useless, because it has NOTHING to do with
power as some of you seem to think. 150 tps is easily better than a
rebirth.

I can see the point of your post - you want taskpoints yourself, and this
would be an easy alternative for you. However, game already provides a
method of getting tps (doing tasks, but mostly buying them with bat cash),
I don\'t know if it\'s reasonable to have another method.

You kind of failed to say why it would be a bad idea to have a new way to
get taskpoints in game.

I still fail to see any argument against it, certainly the price could be
high but it would be another way to gain power. What is wrong with that?
