Feature Good Idea/Bad Idea? Rare Threads

Full support here, this’d just rule.

edit: It’d even result in many more people completing lower-level .moar files, which would also go nicely with the .moar file market (if it does get implemented).

And if you wanted to make it a really endgame thing, perhaps rare threads could be impossible to find wihout having equipped an item, received at the end of ep. 2.

That’s an interesting idea.

One of the potential problems with rare threads would be if they popped up randomly when someone underleveled was trying to pwn a forum for the story and wound up getting screwed over because a rare thread appeared that he wasn’t prepared for. The previous idea was just that they’d only appear after the forum has been pwned by the player at least once, but that doesn’t make much sense lore-wise. Maybe a special type of Web Spider or something would allow the player to “locate threads by important members” within a forum or something. Though I don’t want there to be too much new equipment for such a system.

Another benefit of having a Golden Spider or whatever as a requirement would be that speedrunners could simply not equip it and thus not risk getting screwed over.

Well, I could come up with the excuse that they’ve been avoiding the forum for a bit, but after you, the player, throughly t[h]rashed it, they feel the urge to come back again, either to rebumert themselves in the chaos, to find entertainment in the reconstruction, or figure it may be a bit of cleansing to the forum’s populace. The Spider idea is good, too.

With the optional addition of a golden spider, this idea is a must have, IMO.

This is a fantastic idea. Special items from all the NPCs as well as a use for the Special Items slot would be awesome. (And I sold the male reproductive organblaster on my Troll alt because it wasn’t a Special item at the time, and I needed the flezz.)

****ing signed, along with an optional golden spider or somesuch. Also, additional spiders with different capabilities would be handy as well.

I’ve seen somewhere talk of having contests or volunteers to actually produce .moar files, as in, completing a sound file would actually get you that .mp3. Rare threads -> more mid-level files get completed -> work isn’t wasted on them. It’s the best idea ever goddamnit

I do believe I got 1000th view (unless someone sniped me in the some-odd seconds it took to get from subscriptions to the thread).

... oh, and BUMP, I guess.

I AM SURPRISED THAT THIS WEBSITE IS STILL AROUND

Full of Win.

And replayability too. I love the idea, it would make the game more than pwn and run.
