Making lending less hassle in 3 steps.

[JoeDaStudd]

Hi all,

 

 

 

I was thinking up good ways to increase the ease of lending.

 

 

 

1. 0.1% allowance for lends

 

For each hour over 1 hour you gain the allowance of 0.05%.

 

 

 

Example

 

10m lendable item

 

 

 

Length - Allowance on top of trade limit

 

Until logout - none

 

1 hour - 10k

 

2 hours - 15k

 

3 hours - 20k

 

...

 

24 hours - 130k

 

 

 

2. Multiple lent/borrowed items

 

 

 

Based on the your quest point your allowed to lend/borrow upto 4 items at one time.

 

 

 

Every 70 quest points you gain the ability to lend/borrow 1 extra item.

 

 

 

0 to 69 quest points - 1

 

70 to 140 - 2

 

210 to 280 - 3

 

280+ - 4

 

 

 

3. Ability to return item if no money is received by either party during the lending.

 

 

 

example

 

 

 

Player A lends player B an item for free

 

Player B has finished with the item and Player A would like to use the item.

 

Player B returns the item using the discard option.

 

 

 

This only works if nothing other then the lent item is used in the trade.

 

 

 

 

 

Why

 

1. Is there to remove/minimize the use of junk as well as make lending much easier.

 

2. Promotes questing and is much more helpful for both the lender and borrower. Numerous items I've lent small items out to help people only to find I've shot myself in the foot as I can't let out another item.

 

3. Gives players more of a reason to lend out item to help people. Ever lent out an item to help someone complete a quest only to need the time back before the lending time is over? You can't get it back even though the player has finished with the item.

 

 

 

Sorry if it looks a bit rushed it is/was.

 

 

 

Comments, suggestions and so on all welcome.

 

 

 

Thanks for reading,

 

 

 

Joe

If you lend "Until Logout," the person lending can use the item back on the original player and they get it back in their inventory.

Yes, but I was to lend a fury to a friend wanting to do cave fights I would have to either lend for a set time or not logout at all while they did it.

 

With the option to discard during a timed lend it helps both parties, they can lend something else I get my item back.

 

The no value of the trade stops RWT'er from abusing the other tweaks.

 

Theres been numerous times where I could have done with the item back and they have been don with the item. But theres nothing either party can currently do, hence the tweak.
