Staredit Network

Ok, I've entered a forum that I was IP banned from about a month ago and found out that I'm not banned of it anymore.
Right at that second, an idea pooped up my mind: a new minerals system for SEN! (don't ask why... I'm weird).
so anyhow, here's how the idea goes:
every new member have to submit at least 1 map to register UNLESS his skill level is 'none'.
by this map, a chosen admin will give him the status of Begginer/Averege/Advanced/Uber.
than, a Begginer will automatically recive every day 10 minerals, an Averege will recive 12, Advanced recived 15 and Uber gets 20.
And than, posting a post in assisstance will cost you nothing if you're a creator of a thread in asking help, and cost 4 minerals to post an answer, unless the answer is 100+ characters long and than it's for free.
In ideas&concepts posting a thread will cost 8 minerals.
If you didn't posted for 3 days you'll start losing instead of reciving minerals.
I know it'll need many programing, but think of it, that way:
1. people won't spam
2. people will write serious posts
3. all skill levels will be true
4. hmm... more job to the admins? heh... maybe I or some other no-lifer with lotsa free time can be the map tester instead -.-
5. hmm... did I mention no spam?
and maybe a button in the top of the screen that gives you 24 minerals but than will remove 30 of your minerals as soon as you have them... in case someone's going for mass quastion answering.

it sounds kinda Werid but it also sounds kinda cool

it would stop spamage

but i dont think the Map should speak for the map maker what if they have skills beyond compare with Triggers but never make a map?(thats almsot what i am im good with a lot of Triggers and i dont make maps)

also if someone goes inactive or on vecation they can do a vecation thing so if they go inactive they wont lose nor gain minerals while they are away

i dont think if you post in Ideas and Concepts it should take 8 maby 3 or 4


those are my pointers and what ever dont need to take them and yea

No.

lol i love that





o well it was worth a try Aqo

I don't think anyone should get a set amount of minerals every day just for having a certain map making rating... I mean they might not post for months and be getting minerals? Seems like that system would discourage people from posting, not like anyone posts for minerals, there just for fun .

i dont care for my minerals when i hit 60 or so i randomely give them all away to people

I think the skill level thing should be that everyone can set their own level and if they want to they can send a map to be reviewed and then have on their skill level make it say "Confirmed" to show that their skill level has been reviewed by an admin

"3. all skill levels will be true"
I feel I deserve this "Advanced" rating.
I have never finished any map, but my skil lwith triggers is definitely not newb, noob, or average.

lol

"Yes, it's new and it's kewl!"
I think its bad and sad... lol

although devilesks idea sounds good

Sounds too advanced for me

Oh yea thats me
Although I have completed like 2 maps and a ton of unfinished ones xD, hmm a lot of them could be experimental maps

It sounds good but it probally won't go through.

I almost liked it. Almost.

Too many loopholes, could discourage posting becuase of the cost and you can go into negetive minerals anyway so you can post all you want, which is kinda good except the -3948 minerals part. My response would be the same as IP's, "No."

It doesn't matter if you know how to make hyper triggers, use switches, make units invisible, write 64 action complecated triggers, etc etc.
the whole point about map making is actually making maps.


... awesome explenation why.


but I said that if they don't post for three days they start loosing minerals.


Well, I don't agree.
imo people like health that say their skill is advanced but don't know how to make triggers in the levels of a begginer are just annoying, if everone had their real skill level you'll know better who you're talking too.


yah... life aint ez.


after reading IP's post... it sure won't go.


I don't think so, people will still wanna post to get the 'regular member' powers and to keep their minerals pumping...

IP doesn't have to explain anything.

I didn't said he have to...

I got a better explanation from the guy who is the most affected by this system. It's not IP or M&M it's me!

Here it goes!


Hell no.

This means instead of checking every single map in the DLDB for quality and integrity I also have to rate them all? And with this rating you are asking for I need to play the map several times to make sure.
That means i ahev to drop out of school and life.

Why would I be charged by helping someone? It's plain stupid.

If I go on vacation I lose money.

The newer people will start complaining that us older people and mroe advanced people have way mroe money than them thus making the system unfairer.

Dude this is an awesome idea but it will stop people from playing games in arcade we should put a timer for how long the user has to stay on before he can get minerals???

I agree with ezday. So what if I never finished a good map in over a year. =\ I can still help people with all kinds of random crap. And beer has a very good point.

The arcade is just for fun. In the amount of time you can get 10 minerals playing a game in it, you could get about 100 for posting on the current system.

You missed the point of my post, my suggestion was let people set their own, but then have an option to send a map in to have it reviewed and Confirmed by an admin, and on your map making skill it could say Confirmed underneath.

what about a trigger test, when you first register, your a n00b, you can take and re-take tests every 5 months, then youre score on that would decipher your skill level. then also a sent in map they could get a "confirmed"
