Considering how long the ascended server has been neglected by the game administration, it is no wonder that many have neglected their accounts there. Punishing them for doing so would be counterproductive.

So if you want the ascended server to affect main more, then reset is the only fair option :)

That would never be fair to those who played it so much. Only way a reset would work is if there is a new bank on ascended, everyone gets dmu they invested in the bank and any life force they've invested as cache and it resets. That way those who spent the time get what they put into it back out, yet the game can change based on new ideas. If all you are suggesting is to completely reset it, then it's just another suggestion about how we think this should be removed because we didn't spend the time on it. :roll:

One could say the same about main... Reset it because some havent worked on the accounts as hard. Most of us would be in uproar if that was suggested :-D

The only issue atm is the balancing of the server, and the unattractiveness to those who haven't played to actually get started. But I believe that is one of the reasons why jason introduced the soft and hard cap on levels. So accounts that aren't as powerful can catch up.

CSS the **Filtered** out of the thing to make it less fugly, change the game style a little though keeping to the essentials so we stay true to the game...

To the idea of double descension. I am not really a fan. Being able to inflict that much cost damage to someone is a bit OTT. I believe ascended and main need to be more intertwined but subtlety is the order of the day, not brute force.

Problem is, you loose your bonus for 14 days, when you then take out 8 days personal PPT, and 1 day alliance PPT, your really only affected for 5 days. And if your really cowardly, just go on vacation for the last 4 days.

I support the idea as its a way to start removing resources from the game. Not just the odd mass/sab here and there, but large costs. ATM, the only downside to being de-ascended and loosing the bonus, is just the effort to build yourself up a little stronger so it doesn't happen again
