Thal's balls why are you using the abomination that is comic sans

I like to see how people react.

Also, not always using it. Most for fun atm.

@Evergrey - Fun fact: Comic Sans actually influences others to not take your posts seriously. Yay, psychology!

Now someone already notice this! o_o (But it didn't show comic sans in mobile so... nevermind )

On topic, that's nice idea IMO. More option = more nice things happen.

yes, i read it.

so your position amounts to.
Not enough time for yourself? Sucks for you, fix your life.
Too much time for yourself? Sucks for you too, "play the game" harder, "fix" your life.

shouldn't they fix the game instead? why does that have to be the way the game is? what is wrong with his proposed system?

the Leve system is better and is already part of the game.

I dunno where you got the "Too much time for yourself? Sucks for you too, "play the game" harder, "fix" your life.", I never wrote anything about "too much time for yourself". =/ If you had too much time for yourself you could easily spare some time for a dungeon a day, so there would be no problem to begin with.

Why does it have to be the way the game is? Well, last time I checked I could not do anything the game wasn't programed for. So we have to bid to the rules of the game as how it is for now. If they change it sure, then you can.
I also never said I was against the idea, just said that all it require is 30 min a day to cap before the week is over. And that if you are working & studying so much each day that 30min is out of the question, you might be working too much. Don't you think?

And finally, how some people will always fall behind. Tell me, does everyone in the game have everything that everyone else does? yes/no? And why is that?
It was just a simple fact, nothing personal.

If allows ppl to play this game more like a game than a job then yea go for it. There's no reason to why they cant add this in as it will allow for ppl to have more options.

More options = a good thing

This is just a game if u can't make it, ur life won't end. I've been in those times when I couldnt complete my cap of the week cuz my RL was more important such as work/school/hanging out with friends/travel to another places/going to the movies, etc. Why do we need to have everything. If u need to cap ur tomes of the week then u r showing that u see the game as another job.

Couple questions.
1) Lets say I quit the game for two months right as Esos get released. Should I be allowed to start back up and have auto access to accumulate 3600 tomes and be just as geared as the people who payed 30 bucks and put in the work?
2) Lets say I kept playing the game for those two months. All I did with my time was spend it lvling DoH / Dol, and then using them and I made 200 mil Gil. I can now get all of the tomes I missed, be rich, and be as geared as the people who focused on the tomes. Is this fair?

p.s. I don't have an actual opinion as to if I like the idea or not. Kinda indifferent.

I'd assume you only accumulate allowance points while you have an active account. Does anyone know how leve allowances work in that regard? If you're down to say 20 leve allowances when you drop your subscription, then a couple months later you resubscribe, would you come back to the 20 allowances you'd left (plus maybe another half-dozen or so for that day), or would you come back to a full 100 leve allowances?

As for putting in the work, you'd still need to put in all the work it takes to earn the tomes. You'd simply have more allowances to grind through. If anything, the person who waits and tries to catch up by grinding more tomes at once has to do a bit more work to earn them, since you wouldn't have things like the once-a-day Roulette bonus helping you along. The difference would be that currently you're not allowed to put in that extra work to catch up, and with this proposed accumulating allowance version, you could.
