    Donations can be a lot more valuable than ECD. It's almost like rewarding people for getting scammed.

    Also, another reason productivity has gone up could be an automation of the work force

    How would it? You earned that money and you got back the money

    What you are saying is that without scammers Ecc would be lazy

    Alright guys, I think you've both made your points and opinion. If you would like to further discuss anything, I suggest you talk via forum pm.

    Again, irrelevant.
    No, I'm not saying that at all. I'm saying with the idea of a charity fund run by the server, the scam victims awarded this "prize" would become lazy as they wouldn't have the need to work as they just got money back, for free. Your twisting my words around. Read it right next time, thanks.

    We're discussing the suggestion, like we're supposed to. He's just gone totally off base.

    No, they just get the amount of money they got scammed back and no more prizes

    You've both already expressed your opinions, so there's no need to continue bantering over this issue.

    And also, I have a question after they get their money back, will they stop getting prizes?

    Yes indeed, but, they will become lazy because they expect every time they lose, they will be reimbursed. That just creates a lazy player base in terms of working. This is quite similar to the "Resident Scholarship Funds", pointed out by AgentHare.

    USD > ECD. This could be taken advantage of to get free donations.

    So you are referring to a moral hazard?

    My suggestion is that other users help the person scammed by buying a raffle ticket to get a coupon code. The raffle ticket money will go to a Server Admin or Phys then to the person who was scammed. The person who was scammed has no part in the raffle.

    This won't be a problem @AgentHare because there will be 1-2 winners per raffle. Also, as I said before this is for the bigger scams.

    I feel like this would be abused in order to get a free coupon code. If someone is scammed, they should received something similar to what they lost in return, not something to make them happy and feel better.

    Maybe, we lower the amount you receive if rewarded the coupon code. @clou44 you have to remember no one would want to payback some else's problem. The big question that everyone asks them self is,"What's in it for me?" It's a motivater. I'm not sure if the ECC community is willingly to accept a higher tax in lotto either.

    What? You're making no sense and are adding nothing to the debate at all. You're throwing random ideas out and then twisting my words.
