What's up with the 5 xp???????????????????????????

[war_hawk]

This doesn't even make sense WHY WOULD WE WANT 5 XP, that helps nothing with leveling up. We usually have about 1000 xp before we level up. I've heard people abuse it but I don't even know what they are talking about. Can you guys support this or whatever, I'm not into much forums and stuff but this is dumb. I want omgpop to change it back to 50 xp. Also on that note, what if were trying to help recruits level up? 5 xp?? 5xp??????? That will not help them at all.....

They changed this because people would "abuse" the recruit system by giving their friends xp and them not actually leveling. In the past, it took only 25 days for an account to grow from level 1 to level 10 without playing a single game, if you gave 50 xp every day. The Crew has said that they didn't like all of the recruits taking up unnecessary space on their server if they weren't ever going to play any games on the site. Now that you can only give 5 xp per day (it's been like this for months, it just has still said 50 until now), the incentive is much greater for you to recruit people and actually get them to play games to level up to level 10. And hopefully by the time they reach level 10, they'll enjoy the site enough that they'll continue to play. It's a win-win situation for the recruiter, the recruit, and the site itself.

Sure, this makes getting star through recruits tougher, but it's also more rewarding. Think about it this way. Let's say you told 10 of your friends to sign up just so you could level them to level 10. Have you really gotten anything out of it besides the STAR? Not really. Now let's say you recruit 10 friends, and encourage them to play until they reach level 10. I'm sure that some of them will enjoy the site, and stay to play even past level 10, and you've been rewarded with new friends to play with on the site as well.

Read this post (click) from the OMGPOP staff about it.

It's been like this for a long while. You only just noticed it because they changed the button. The whole point of the recruit system is for users to keep playing, even after they reach level 10. If the XP gift is 50 xp, recruits will simply create an account and leave.

Lol I like how everyone is just noticing this, though it's been like this for awhile and the button just hasn't been changed.

I guess you are right, but none of my friends want to join this site, I send them the invite link and they just say no automatically lol. I already have 10 recruits but they haven't played for months now, even tho I've asked. A few are close to level 10 but 5 xp everyday won't make a difference. So that isn't really fair, if people don't like the site after they join it isn't my fault. I told them to join and try it out but if they don't want to play anymore I'm not going to constantly bother them about it.

I know I just noticed....I'm not like seeing how much xp they get? I heard about this before but I thought people were just spreading rumors and since I didn't notice anything change I just thought nobody altered anything.

WELL I'M NOT CHEATING RECRUITS, HOW WOULD I KNOW WHAT KIND OF XP THEY DO OR DON'T RECIEVE. You seem suspicious, hmph, hmph.
