    Title of the idea: A NPC that accepts mesos donation
    Purpose of the idea: Mesos sink
    Details: When the server reset at 0:00, the NPC will do a GM like smega to announce the highest donor. Players can't check or know the current highest donor or the amount until the announcement.

    You've heard of Maplestory.... what about OAKFABLE

    There's something already like that, it's the donation pales in towns for medals, not implemented at the moment though.

    Oh cool. Not too familiar with the medal and family system. I was not very active when GMS implemented those. Thanks for the info and crushing my dream!

    Wouldn't this just be feedback that can be posted in the feedback board? I'm confused

    Maybe it is better for this to be in the feedback section instead of general discussion.

    Is it possible to move the thread over, or should I just close this and make another one?

    What would be a good incentive to donate is applying a sort of RNG reward to it. For example that you get a medal with random stats that lasts for a month, and the stats have higher chance of being better for every X amount you donate (maybe every 100m you get a 1% chance increase on getting better stats). Of course with this the % increase is not cumulative with each new donation and only counts for the current donation

    Please use the format <3

    Is what your suggesting an add-on to my suggestion? Also the purpose of this thread is not for one single idea that I posted. I was hoping to be a compilation of many ideas from everyone.

    Yeah it's more of an addon.

    Uh, AFAIK the Feedback subforum itself is a compilation of ideas from the Royals community. How is posting in this thread different from straight up creating a thread in the Feedback subforum?

    I always thought doing an all time donator (per town. Example Top Ellinia Donator), and a temp 1 month rush.

    That way some guy who wants to dump 50b, can hold onto something, but gives people in the small time something to fight over for a month of glory.
    You could make your own thread with your own format (or lack of), but this one is here, might as well compile similar posts together

    Well...You have a point, but at the time I was thinking it'd be nice to have one thread to capture all my own ideas whenever I had a lightbulb on without making a new thread every time.

    I have all sorts of random ideas from time to time (a lot of them I don't remember anymore), and I didn't feel like making a new thread at the time so I didn't capture it. I guess I wanted it to be a little more casual without offending anyone or having people calling me out saying it's a stupid idea. That's one of the reason I put it in general discussion at first.

    Title of the idea: Royals Battle Royale Chamber
    Purpose of the idea: mesos sink
    Details: Pay a fee (5m or so) to enter a special room with a buff NPC and with an unkillable dummy target NPC for 5 minutes.

    Outside potions are not use able in this room, and player can purchase buffs from NPC with mesos. Buffs will last until you leave the room. Buff selection includes each and all party buffs available in MapleRoyals (echo, se, si, mw20), and attack buffs at different values (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 40, 60, 100, 120).

    Talk to the buff NPC with option to leave or start the 1 minute timer for player to start attacking the dummy for 1 minute. DPM counter will be at the top for player to take a screenshot at the end of the minute.

    Title of the idea: Allow smuggling tickets from party quest
    Purpose of the idea: "Promote" pqing as an alternate way to level instead of leeching
    Details: I know the smuggling tickets out of PQ to build up speed to clear future PQ was not part of the game per design, but it gives players more motivation to attend PQ instead of buying leech. I believe smuggling tickets in Royals a couple years ago was "allowed" and LMPQ for an example had healthy amount of people recruiting and joining party. Now days most of the PQ are relatively empty.

    Love the idea. Creates competition among the community to out-damage your peers. As an add-on, I would suggest either:
    • Awarding a medal to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd highest DPM players to gain recognition in game (resetting every 24 hours or so)
    • Adding a ~ command that allows players to view the current top 3 players such as ~chamber
    • Simply adding an NPC similar to the guild rankings board that shows the current ranks for the day and highest DPM all time
    As an add-on to my add-on, going with the medal system I would like to see the highest DPM player all time have a permanent medal until they are knocked off the top by someone else. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd medals can be reset daily. None of the medals have to even have stats if people would view that as unfair, just use them as a status symbol and recognition for being a top attacker in Royals.

    You could even break it up by class to keep it more fair as some classes will outperform others in DPM naturally. IE: Top DPM Hero, Top DPM Nightlord, Top DPM Bishop, etc...

    I thought about something similar to your recommendation, but I fall back to the old school taking a screenshot and post on the forum.

    Reason being it will be a lot less coding/bugs to exclude the medal system, and require posting on the forum will promote or attract more people to use the forum more frequently.

    I agree, but if the purpose is Meso Sink as suggested, more people would be willing to play along if it had in game rewards rather than forum. Not to say you can't still post your results on forum.

    Could be as simple as the WoW target dummy.

    Static, bajillion HP target. Attack and when it gets no attack after X amount of time, it calculates how long you attacked, and how much damage you did. Or, give it a static Y amount of damage (1 to 5 million) and have it just time you to see how long it takes.

    We already do this with around 12 hours notice. Unless it is an unexpected emergency server check - like what happened today.
