1,000 posts

So I noticed Nayru is approaching 1,000 posts and it got me thinking. 500 posts is where the final ‘incentives’ are, everything else is just playing at the top. But, while Nayru hardly needs more of them what if we added a free black ticket for reaching 1000 posts to be used specifically on that character? It would still keep things fresher at these higher levels and, while Nayru is known to win in the voting a lot and many will have earned a ticket by that point not everyone will. I don’t see it becoming a problem of too many tickets either since in ten years it would be the first time someone got to 1,000 posts and if it’s kept tied to the character to earn it the far reaching effects are kept minimal. I’m easily years from this holding relevance to me but it’s just a thought.

The mods are talking about potential further growth and ideas have been speculated. So it's not an unobserved notion, I can say that much.

TBH I've always been in favor of BTs for every 500 posts. Not to devalue awards but I feel bad when I end up winning too many lol, people who stick around should be rewarded too. the ones I do win I try to use on group stuff though, usually. to pay it back a little

Beyond that though, yea, what Ilheod said. While things haven't exactly been uh... moving super fast lately, we have been discussing dealing with the 500/1000 milestones in various ways. And I look forward to eventually having something more concrete! Hopefully that doesn't come across as me circlejerking myself lmao.

I never really thought about this but 500 posts is a respectable contribution to the life of this rp and 1,000 much more so. It really would be nice for people that contribute that much to the site to be rewarded in such a way. A ticket for every 500 posts seems like a nice incentive reward to work towards and takes enough effort to earn that people wouldn't be able to simply exploit the system for it as the attempt would be highly visible far in advance. I strongly support this idea. Of course, I'm just a person on the internet with an opinion whereas the mods are the ones that have to deal with any issues this system might eventually raise.
