    Lightbulb Refundable Items

    Hey Graalians,

    Today I was thinking about new ideas for graal and I came across a quite popular idea, refundable items. It might be cool to be able to refund items if you don't like them or dont use them anymore.
    Now some people might think this would ruin the game, make it too easy, etc. but it wouldn't be a full refund.
    Let me explain, Items would only be refunded for a similar amount they're worth. Here's a list of things that could change items values:

    • Items worth would automatically be halved when bought-(BAR=200,000-half=100,000 Gralats refunded)
    • If the item is a gun, the worth is less if it isn't in perfect condition-(Uzi=perfect condition+time pass=Rusty Uzi lowering the price)
    • The item could also lower depending on how long you've had it or if its a melee, how many kills you've gotten with it.


    So as you can see it would'nt be completely OP.

    Let me know what you think about this.

    There had been too many posts about refunds. An admin already said that we are not a rental system. About the refund rates, again this idea has already been posted. 50% is still too op. Even 25% is still even too op. I got no ideas about refunds but thanks for trying to help out with refund problems!

    It would be nice too but no. Creating this kind of spam thread is bad enough for era reputation. Decreasing the amount of hard earn just to get a refund to everything?

    Not all the same. Some of the people were even convinced that it's a horrible idea. Like me ^_^ At least explain why it can't happen. No reason to be a dick and straight up say "Never" and that's it. At least give justification.

    This would take away the income of the server (people would have less reason to buy Packs), which would take away at the ability to pay for the server upkeep, which would result in the server being shut down.

    Refunding any item that has to do with gralats would result in less gralats being bought, and, as I said, would make the server go bye-bye. Sorry, but no.


    Edit: Honestly, if they were to do any sort of refunding, the most they could do is like 2% :P Even that would hurt the server slightly.

    Everything that needs to be said has been said on many threads. When admins say that it won't happen because of income and it is not a "rental service" that is pretty conclusive evidence. If people would use the search function then it would save a lot of time.

    There you go ^_^ You did it, you grump.

    "Income issues, too many other threads on this. Sorry, no." That is literally shorter than your "nope, never going to happen. Many threads on this, and they all turn out the same.".

    I won't argue the rental service thing. Wanna guess why?

    Will this help to stop getting off topic?
