Please no. There are already no reason to choose SSL over drug. It is immoral to extort more money and effort from their part.

EDIT: Please notice that it is drug users who are have the advantage here.

Effectively it saves you trips to rehab and frees up your drug cd to use Vicodin and Cannabis, on the top end of the spectrum 50 points is 2,700,000. Plus you won't need to use lsd since you'll get all the happy boost all at once, giving a slight buff to the gym gains. This change allows those who do want to use the SSL a way to not completely fall behind until Xanax users unlock better gyms. In fact it might even cause a big money sink, since it could be more gym gains than the weaker gyms despite the extra energy.

Think about it. Each player that joins that is -500 million, then they get into gyms that are able to beat ssl. Now they start using Xanax or Ecstasy. Say we have 1000 players do that. That is 500 billion $. Over a long period of time, you'll overdose on LSD and you'll miss out on several gym training. Is that not worth the extra money for it if you are worried about your stats but not so much that you'll use Xanax each day? Or is the only focal point you disagree about is the amount of points for this special reifll?

1. You are not forced to rehab, addiction recover with time.

2. Vicodin and cannabis are not that useful themselves, Vicodin are useless without high stat to back it up, cannabis are useless beside for the merit.

3. 2700000 net you 3 XANAX = 750 energy, you still get more gym gain if you throw in 2x - 3x energy.

4. 300 happy? come on

5. You do realize that SSL user are already paying much more that drug user in order to catch up with them, They have to use can and FHC everyday to get close to drug user and DRUG USER CAN USE THOSE THING TOO.

6. Are you suggesting SSL user should drop their SSL membership and use drug as well? Money sink? This is immoral.

7. Everyone know the best way to deal with LSD OD is to take more LSD, the happiness fill back quickly.



p.s. Your work are very unreadable, did you really think through what you write?

MOSTLY saying no here because it would screw over people like me - taken 1k LSD, am in SSL, under your suggestion i lose my 500mil gym membership
Cryptic [2059197]

You didn't even read the suggestion all the way or your concern would've been addressed.

@ gorly I'm not saying they would have to. But it would be a viable way to get stronger. Vicodin has a use and Cannabis does to. If I changed the points to cost 30 for the special refill would that make you happy? It'd cost about the same as a refill + lsd (well minus rehab). The happy is more just to give close to what 3 lsd would over a day. Going off on a rant and rave over cost is nonsense. No numbers I'm using here are completely solid other than the energy given ( which would compensate for loss of lsd with donator status).

No.

What I'd like to see is the drug limit become time sensitive, meaning you can choose to stop being a druggie. Maybe no Xanax or Ecstasy for 30 days resets the counter. I say 30 days of literally 0 usage as you'll lose out on a lot of gains if you switch back and forth regardless, but you don't want the counter to be so long that most people won't touch it even with the option to go for it.

More people might try it if it's not "You go for it from the start or you never get it".

You could also then have a logical reason to lower the limit of Xanax and Ecstasy to balance that. Maybe 10, or 5, or maybe even 5 each, but again, 30 days of none of that to reset it, allowing very limited drug use, I'd go against a straight 0 limit as SSL is still inferior in stat gains.

As an additional argument to that, you can't expect a new player to make that big of a decision right from the get go, they are going to want to climb up and get a foothold, making it time sensitive would make it more open, as well as move the decision to allow experienced players to be able to make a fully informed choice to go for it.
