This idea came up to my mind some days ago and i would like to make it, but i first need your feedback and what should be improved at it.
I have been thinking in a system of rewards for helpful people on the server.
If someone was helpful with you, assisting you with problems, or questions, then you will be able to give him a cookie (1 per day or 1 per week, i will review this at a later time).
People will be able to see how much cookies he got at his statistics. Indeed the player with most cookies is the player with most helps at the online community. There would be other ways to win cookies, by events, or other kind of official announces, and you will be able to change them for rewards or something worth the time you spent helping, the ones i will review at a later time.
Indeed this system needs to be reviewed to evade abuses.
What do you think about it? Would you like it? Which rewards you suggest?
I like it, but it needs to be implemented perfectly to not be abused. We don't need more player or admen caboose.
What can you abuse with cookies? ........
Seems pointless imo.

Making fake accounts to give yourself cookies and get rewards for that.
Instead of making a system to reward players with fake cookies, maybe the person they help can give them money? There's no difference between the two.
-1 for me
It's not really needed in my opinion, no one will really use it.

This is meant to give players abit of more interest in helping players and being kind with others, will also help people to host more events and give cookies at them as rewards, which will let you change them for stuff in the future.
Yes its like money, but you get them by helping and participing in events, which is way different than work. This will make alot of guys being helpful.
I like the idea because it will get people to help new players. 3 years ago, people helped each other...now they just answer peoples questions with stupid answers, just trolling them. Perhaps there should be a way to take cookies away?
Also, I think there should be a message sent to the player, something like: "you have received a cookie from XXXX, reason: XXXX" it would be nice if total cookies showed up on stats too.
What reward do you get for having cookies then? (Or a certain amount), else who gives a fuck about having cookies that you cant eat?
No, everyone will just give cookies to their friends or pay people to give them cookies, sorry but -1
Not bad idea,but we don't need that.
Great idea but players will beg for cookies to get reward, so I am neutral.
Spam and corruption will come up instantly, people begging to get cookies / paying to get cookies.
But I have an idea of a possible reward. If someone gets a number of cookies, lets say 10, he will have a 50% discount on the car of his choice in a certain dealer, lets say Autobahn Used Autos.
I think you should enable smiting karma to punish those unhelpful players >:D

It was enabled, but it was disabled, so no.

You need to have 10/something posts to be able to give cookies anyway.
Im neutral on the suggestion; based on what people said about the begging/randomly giving.

This
Its not needed. In the end it will be another popularity contest thinghy and im pretty sure it wont be used for rewarding helpfull people.
It would be better if admins or moderators could give out cookies for helpfull players. If you let every player do this, it will end up in just another thinghy for fun and cookiespam wil begin xD
cookies to give away but no limit? every day you get 3 cookies to give away but 3 is max so next day you get 3 cookies but if u had already 3 its stays on 3 and not 6.

I really dont like this idea, as some people will be like "if I helped you, give me a cookie" like on SAMP forums, begging for rep, but in this case cookies. so -1
scripters, the word admins hate just because they only give them work to do
still this suggestion sucks
Isn't this just like Truckmania huh? Why you are going to copy some stuff :/

Thats what i thought at the start, maybe give cookies at official events, just like find all the christmas presents and get 10 cookies.

I told dobby the same thing tonight lol
Maybe having 50-100 cookies will help you to get an specific card for 50% discount

And who cares about your opinions, you are pointless at the server. If i had to script something based on your feedback i prefer to do it without asking.
cookies on forum should stay on the forum.. something on forum like this should not cross over to the server, and besides I dont want to lose my current cookies, ive worked so hard on
In the end this suggestion will result in the following things
- If rewards are gonna be made for X cookies, complainst of abuse/ unfair cookies or biased cookies will be made.
- Nobody is unbiased, everyone has a small leniancy towards friends of favoured players.
Im sorry man, but this will cause more shit to control for staff, and its just not needed.
Ok then you just missed a chance for something new on the server.

Maybe, not everything you consider a positive new thing for the server, might actually be a good thing.
Cookies IG would just be abused, i dont want that, i dont need that. The idea is cool none the less, but it will be abused and then become my or another staff members problem and thats notneeded. :)
