Title: BADGES++

[BADGES++]
Now Live on The Pokemon Server
Trading In Your Badges
To trade in your badges, you must talk to the respective [Gym Leader] and give them the material badges that you would like to convert.
They will type the /givebadge <full name> command, and you will receive the badge.
This is the same command as it is to receive a badge after a normal gym battle.
REMEMBER: You can only have ONE of each badge at a time.

SEEING YOUR BADGES
To see what badges you currently type, type /badges <region>
This will show you what badges you have and which ones you still need to get.

Fighting the [Elite] Four
When you fight the [Elite] Four and admin will use the/takebadges <full name> command, and you will lose all of your badges, starting the fight.

Please direct ALL questions to me at this post OR in game.

Everything sounds great, just one question.

Question #1: If and when the Elite player takes that badges, does it go to his/her badge collection? And what if they type the /takebadges command whenever they choose.

No. The command just deletes the badges off of the server.

Why not just give the admins the take away command? It's not like anyone can fight anyways without an admin being there so that would prevent abuse.

Maybe hold on to your physical badges and turn them in at a later date?

Yeah, I know a lot of people who have multiple of the same badge. They are going to be pretty pissed when they see this

They won't be allowed for turn in. Eventually the Trade-In process will be done, as it has been for any badge trade in the past. When it's over (don't ask when, I don't yet know) it will be impossible ot get badges by giving an item, and the unobtainables will simply be illegal novelty items from a time since past.

Anger is understandable, but honestly, this is how it was supposed to be from the beginning. Users only get one badge from the leader, and then the leader doesn't need to be challenged again until the Elite 4 is challenged again. Sadly, we couldn't enforce it because it was only the memory of the leader to be relied on.

This is also why I support 2 elite 4's because a user can choose to follow the harder elite 4 after trying the previous one, and not collecting all 8 easy badges first.

I must say im not very happy with this new plugin. We will now lose all our multiple badges we worked so hard to get. We cant even keep them to exchange them multiple times in future.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: ArchieSalt on April 15, 2012, 09:08:34 am
There must be something we can exchange the badges for. Maybe money?

Why is it BS.

because people lose there badges because off this and once again people lose work they do .
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: 1cec0ld on April 15, 2012, 09:31:01 am
So rather than calling names at the plugin and labeling it, why don't you proactively suggest a compensation for the loss?
Title: Re: BADGES++

fore saying BS ? 2 letters ?
lol fore that !
and btw 1ce I LOVE IT when you put my name so big on the forums <3

Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: 1cec0ld on April 15, 2012, 09:36:24 am
If no solution is found, it appears that way. As stated before, it was never supposed to be that way. It's always been desired to have just one badge from the gym. We were loath to allow multiples.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: ArchieSalt on April 15, 2012, 10:40:43 am
It still doesnt negate the fact that plenty of people spent a lot of time gaining multiple sets of badges. and their time is simply wasted now.
Title: Re: BADGES++

i agree archie
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: Rigby on April 15, 2012, 12:30:06 pm
After achieving one badges achieving the next would subsequently be less meaningful or worthwhile, until badges are worth nothing to said person.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: Equin0x on April 15, 2012, 12:55:49 pm
This is good, and its not hard to gain multiples of a badge. It just means the leader is easy for you to beat so you exploit that and get as many badges as you can. Thanks to this I can finally train in peace.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: ArchieSalt on April 15, 2012, 01:35:54 pm
Equi has a good point. At least this way, people wont have a reason to challenge gyms constantly.


I suggest this.
ANY GYM LEADER, PUT A SIGN IN FRONT OF YOUR GYM SAYING THAT ONLY ONE OF EACH BADGE CAN BE OBTAINED UNTIL USED AGAINST ELITE 4


Otherwise people may challenge hoping for extra badges when they cant get any
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: Paradox on April 15, 2012, 02:26:11 pm
Why would you even need 12 sets of each badge? If you have it, that means you can beat them. It shouldn't take long to beat them again if needed.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: Warmonger_2 on April 15, 2012, 02:55:32 pm
What about mine and archies badges? Do we just loose them if we dont get back on before the trade in date? Also maybe put like a $200 value on each extra badge traded in?
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: ArchieSalt on April 15, 2012, 03:20:53 pm
I dont have any badges. And according to your terms. You shouldnt have any either

and maybe you could sell old badges back to the server, perhaps 1k per badge (or so. I don't know how the economy is set). Set up a shop at spawn that does it, maybe in Oak's lab. This would ease the anger of those who have multiples.

Correct. Unobtainable items will simply be a novelty after this.
Title: Re: BADGES++
Post by: 1cec0ld on April 17, 2012, 10:37:58 pm
Can we rename /checkjohto to /checkbadges? And we don't need it to spell out that 4 is enough, all we need to see is the count.

Perhaps /checkbadges (regionName) so we can see if they qualify for johtoGymLeader status as well.

We use badge count for Kanto Gym Leader status, as well as JohtoTrainer and Johto Gym Leader, so it does depend on which region. And that extra line saying "its enough for johto access" is just a waste of chat...

So we can keep our old badges as souvenirs?

Burn them, or give them to the leaders to be burnt when you exchange.

I'll change that command and add the functionality when I get home tonight.

It has to be the full name and its also case sensitive
Title: Re: BADGES++

I'm aware of that.
