This suggestion involves making it so that instead of every forum having a set range of pwnage and attack numbers, each thread has a set range of pwnage and attack numbers, and each forum has a certain number of these ranges. A forum could have a heavily offensive type of thread, a heavily defensive type of thread, and a type of thread with pretty good in both categories. Some thread types have “titles”, which are highly rare and grant them special abilities. Mousing over a thread gives it’s stats. Sticky:Stays at the top of the forum. Stronger than a normal thread. As long as this thread stays alive, new threads will be made periodically. Depressing:Unavoidably inflicts some damage upon entering the thread. Making G! one of these could make it more unpwnable. Heartwarming:Thread can choose to heal itself with a typical post rather than attacking you. BelovedLog in to see images!wn this last, because destroying this thread makes everyone hate you and hit harder in future threads. And many others. |

Seems more complicated than simple. |

will the player get boosts as well? otherwise a lot of these threads just become weaker geronimo threads… (u hit for 1000, they kill u due to power boost) |

No, they’re not like that. Like, maybe instead of how it is now, the l35s would have one type of thread that only hits you for 200 but has loads of pwnage, and another that hits you for 600 but can be killed swiftly. Players get bonus in the form of the opposite of boosted threadsLog in to see images! |

For those asking for more strategy, realize that’s largely also a major shift in a bunch of other things. A lot of the high end moar files would be totally ridiculous if folks spent 5-10 minutes each forum instead of 30-150s on them. Domination Vanilla and Lemon are both based heavily around the time it takes. As it takes more time, it will augment the advantages of teams of people working together over solo users.
Not that I’m against such things, but nothing exists in a vacuum. |

Hackmeister Posted: This is my simple suggestion. You should be glad you didn’t see my other, more complicated suggestion, which could make it take up to 30 minutes to pwn a forum.

This would single-handedly kill the RNG for farming .moar files. Imagine finding HOFF with a Sticky thread. I’m against all the RNGs out there so for me it would be a good thing, but chances are CZ wouldn’t agree with me.
Idea looks good, may need some shaping tho. |

Just make it a small random percentage chance, adjustable based on the difficulty of the forum. Or exclude certain forums from having certain ‘thread types’. |

Doable and interesting. If it gets done, it will probably be done as an addition to Ep 3. That’s when the huge changes to gameplay are done. |

I was thinking that the way stickies work, they wouldn’t keep the forum afloat forever, just far longer than they would otherwise. Like every time you pwn three threads, two new ones appear. |

I’m all in favor of less grind and this sounds like a good way to do just that. I fully support this idea. |

If anyone’s interested in what I consider my better suggestion, TM me for it. I won’t post it publicly for now because it involves moore changes and I’m afraid I’ll get lauged out of flamebate. |

Very much signed. Could be interesting to have some additions to pwning a thread or forum. |

Great ideas. This would make FWZ look more RPGish and less straight forward as it looks now. With a little effort put on, it’s a great improvement. |
