Yes we could certainly look into a reward for raid interruption. But we have to careful or users could just form two raids with their alts and interrupt themselves. Half the scoops is an ok reward.. Something like every 2 forums you pwn back from a raid you get 1 scoop for.. Sure, I’d consider that.

Okay, but now this goes back to the issue Ricket mentioned earlier. If there is no limit to interruption but gains from raids are further limited, why would a klan set themselves up to be someone’s scoop source if the only advantage they’re getting from raiding is 30-something scoops, bumuming no interruption? Almost any coordinated interruption and a couple of unintentionally interrupted visits would quickly destroy that lead. I suppose you could figure out how to best use that mechanic to your advantage, but if you want to encourage more raiding by people who don’t do it now, I don’t think that will work. I don’t bother interrupting klan raids, since if it’s a raid with a lot of people, that is a pretty stable situation and they can recover quickly, not making it worth it. And I really don’t want to interrupt and discourage less experienced groups from raiding. But if you get a reward from interruption, people will just pounce on whatever group finally gets it together to make a go of it. I think that would be pretty discouraging.
