At least from the store description, it seems like they’d be the snobby kind of shop-owners to do that.

I think it’d be a good way to reward buildr participation, instead of more submissions I don’t wind up using ad infinitum.

no

why so even more over priced kyoubia shops can pop up

I’m not sure but there should be a limited number of items in the store, especially moar files. The nature of moar files is to be dropped from forums, but now it’s changing and I think the unlimited number of moar files will destroy the moar market.

Is the rampant downvoting really such a big problem as everyone says?

Well, I guess I’ll find out during this week, since this is the first time I’m seriously taking part in forumbuildr in a few months…

This.

Also, what if you aren’t good at writing? Thus, you will never get a high buildr score.

Yeah, you have to be REALLY good or really “popular” to get a good score right now.

Make a cool logo, topic icon, style, etc.

I for one, am not funny enough for either buildr, nor can I use paint/photoshop, so I would be screwed.

Bad idea. I don’t like the idea of exclusivity of in-game purchases based upon a meta-game factor.

Even though I have a decently high buildr score (I’m in the top 40) and I run a Kyoubai shop, I wouldn’t want to see this happen.

whats the consumers co-op precious

ItemBuildr’s Consumer Co-Op

This is the store where all of the winning submissions are listed for purchase. Price is affected by Frugality, just like all other shops (except Ppwn Shoppe purchases, of course).

I don’t think this is a good idea, for the simple reason that if a certain buildr score were required to access in-game content, everybody would feel obligated to use all of their 7 submissions per week, which would result in even more work for everybody else in order to separate the good ideas from the chaff. Not only that, but if “not having a good enough buildr score” would cut people off from in-game content people would get more bumhurt if/when their submissions are downvoted/not accepted.

Not only that, but having a buildr score requirement to use the co-op, would mean the shop is less effective as a flezz sink, since there would be fewer of these items created, and what the game really needs now is not “less efficient flezz sinks.”
