A quick fix potentially increase activity on the forums (and boost revenue for CZ) is to lower the cost of avatar and title pranks and possibly lower the cost or lifespan of wordfilters/emotes.

If stuff is cheaper, people will buy more of it. That’s just a fact of consumerism. And pranks are fun. YOu can cause drama and point out fabulous persons and whatnot.

Revised pricing could be a ‘LIMITED TIME SALE LOL’ to see how it goes, too. the worst that happens is people buy more stuff, right.

People dont want to waste three irl dollars on a 93x93 picture when someone else will change it back seconds later. One or two dollars, however, might get more interest.

oh and CZ, if flamebate improvements (klan admin, locked threads, etc) are actually on the horizon it would be nice to know.

The USD to BP ratio ranges from $1.67 for 1 BP with the lowest package up to the $1:1 you get with the FoF III. That means that at most right now an avatar change is $1.67. To lower to the cost of the Avie and Title changes (which are already at 1 BP) would require a rework of the pricing plans, which has potential for mbumive bumhurt.
