Chests
 
Ok brace yourselves, my ideas usually aren't good
Well, people always have mazes and stuff, and say how there are "black gralats" at the end. Now some people honestly have a maze, and there's a code at the end, and you tell the person and they can invite you to their guild house and unlock one for you, but that's such a hassle.
I was thinking there could be a special chests, (here's the stupid part) and you can set amounts for the people to take when they open it. I bet there are many flaws, but here are some solutions:

What if someone just keeps opening it? Well, there could be a feature where you can only open it once, like the chests around Graal City.

Where will this money come from? Maybe, you can have a bank account, and every month you have certain amount of gralats in it, and if the balance is lower than the amount of gralats needed in the chests, it will close your home until you either lower the chest value, take out the chest, or add more money to your account

Is this a form of donating? In a way, yes. There should be a maximum amount also, to avoid someone hacking accounts and stealing money all at once. Maybe it can be 500 gralats.

For Example: Suppose someone says "farm for me for an hour, and I will give you a gold!" At this point, the player will set the chest to 30 gralats, and maybe even have a timer to set it for an hour,

Or maybe you can just buy preset chests at a store with fixed amounts like 100 or 500. Like you said though, it has flaws. People can abuse it just to give Gralats to their friends all the time.

you mean donating? that could very well just be another use, instead of a prize

If you want to call it donating, sure. I think I would honestly rather have a trading system if it's sole purpose was to give Gralats to people. The prize chests are a better alternative to farming for hours in order to come up with a event prize for your guild. This way, the guild leader(s) can spend more time preparing for the event instead of farming for the prize. Maybe there should be a weekly limit on how many you can buy so you can't just use it for donating purposes.

They tried a trading system the results |FAIL| but your way of seeing things makes more sense, they could find ways to abuse that chest idea in a mere 3-4 days and then that'll cause scamming to be a problem AGAIN

Something that could make scams less frequent could be a unfair trade warning system
Basically pretend that you are trading 2k gralats for 10 gralats , the system would detect that this trade is not fair and giv you 2 warning messages of warning that you could be scammed at that moment and it would be completely on you ( kind of like te call of duty reset level and stats thing if you play cod )

Ik this would be kinda hard to script and stuff but it's a suggestion :)

The system wouldn't be able to even detect you're trading in the first place since you would be taking Gralats from a furniture item in an owners house. The intention is not to even trade the Gralats. They're supposed to be used as a prize. I'm not trying to ridicule your suggestion. It would just be impossible to do.

what are you people talking about this isnt trade.. this is a chest.. you go up to it, and get your reward. There is no trading

samies first good idea? NWB

Nuno Ares 11-03-2013 02:39 PM

Maybe when someone opens the chest, it goes in the inventory of the owner? and to place it again, he has to pay a small fee? (50 gralats)
You could also add a key or password system… the key or the password would be at the end of the maze and the chest at the beginning? so that people could be able to see that there really is a chest and not a scam?

This I like.

It might help to balance it if they made the chests with preset gralats in it cost more than it should. After all your getting a chest and gralats. For example: if you wanted to buy a preset chest with 500 gralats you would have to pay 1k or more for it. You would basically be paying for the gralats and the chest. Maybe after words the chest would dis appear or you could set it like the other furniture but not be able to refill it. I think over charging for a preset chest with gralats in it would help keep it from getting abused.
