What is your suggestion's title?

Gold Gifting​

Suggestion Details:

Hello, I'm Java. I'd like to propose a 'Gold Gifting' feature. This would enable players to share gold with others using a simple command: /givegold (username) (amount).

As gold is typically acquired through purchases, events, or giveaways, being able to gift it would spread joy and foster community spirit. To clarify, this suggestion only applies to gold currency, excluding iron currency, which can be obtained through voting.

Implementing this feature would:

- Enhance player interaction and engagement
- Encourage kindness and generosity within the community
- Provide a unique way to celebrate special occasions or show appreciation

I believe 'Gold Gifting' would be a valuable addition, and I look forward to your feedback. Thank you for considering my proposal!​

How could this idea help improve JartexNetwork?

The 'Gold Gifting' feature can help us in several ways:

1. *Increased player retention*: By fostering a sense of community and encouraging kindness, we can create a more positive and engaging gameplay experience, leading to longer player retention.

2. *Improved player engagement*: The ability to share gold can lead to more interactions between players, creating a more dynamic and social environment.

3. *Enhanced reputation*: By allowing players to show appreciation and celebrate special occasions, we can enhance our game's reputation as a positive and supportive community.

4. *Potential revenue increase*: If players can gift gold, they may be more inclined to purchase additional gold, leading to potential revenue growth.

5. *Valuable feedback and insights*: By implementing this feature, we can gather feedback from players and gain valuable insights into their behavior and preferences, helping us make data-driven decisions for future updates.​

Extra Information:

Nope, that's all.​

As an idea itself it's really great but it could easily get exploited. Many players could gift to a specific player all of their gold (mass gift) and since gold never expires they could just keep it in their balance until enough people are found to pull off this smart stunt. HOWEVER, I came up with a few restrictions to ensure no exploits like this one will happen if this suggestion gets implemented.

Gold gifting restrictions
1) Every player can only receive gold from only 1 player per month (the player who is receiving the gold MUST accept the gold from the other player).
2) Every player can gift gold to only 1 player per month.
3) Staff members aren't excluded by the above restrictions + they have a limit of how much gold they can gift to a specific player per month (that's because staff members get paid in gold currency so they have a lot of it).

I would love to see this idea getting implemented in the network but with the necessary safety measures. +1

Mhm your idea is great, but gold can only be bought or win by events or giveaways. So, I don't think people are that dumb to just give all there gold to only one person. But yes you are right, too.

And I agree with your suggestions too.

Many people with only a little bit of gold gifting it all to a single person. So let's say for example 10 people have 200 gold each from being top voters/chat events/giveaways and they gift it to a single person. Then that person has 2k gold and can buy dia rank. Now you might wonder why is that a bad thing. Well, that gold doesn't have real value since it's basically free. No one paid for it so it's lost money for the server.

Yes, but i think thats a good thing, People wont give their gold for nothing. It would just mean that people would trade ingame items that might not be worth that much for less gold!

 

[InfamousMadara]

it seems like its risky but if we look at it, its hard to find any risks.
1) Hackers can just buy stuff from your gold and /gift themselves anyways
2) Any command related issue probably wont even happen because this is an important thing

It would just integrate gold as the highest value currency in every gamemode, which i think is very cool.

+1. I think this is a good idea, there are minimal risks to this. If it's clear what they're trading is actually a currency, then there is not much chance of people unknowingly trading gold/iron.

I suppose to some degree this could be exploited, but only if something goes unnoticed during development which causes duplication or something of the sort. Even with the restrictions you have suggested, people can still gift their gold.
