So I had this idea . It would be cool to be able to convert LP to SP.
It would help the new players get incentive to play more . It would be an option to every player in the game. It would promote more gun skills .(Pew Pew) It would help keep the faction market regulated. (better prices) It would create more wealthy pilots (to buy those faction ships and mods) It would motivate more activity in general
The average missioner does 3 to 5 missions a day , but not every day .If he traded in ALL of his LP for SP, it would amount to a small percentage over the long haul .
Can anyone think of a downside ? I mean a real "not good for the game" bad effect ?

So much hostility ! So much fear!
I'll restate a couple things , respond to a couple , argue a couple.
Missions are the only place where LP are earned , so thats why its the only option for exchange .
ANYBODY can do missions . Acting like its exclusive is pretty narrow minded . The option is there and every player would have the choice.
Old players are only half the success of any game (or less) What makes games grow and evolve is NEW players. Getting them in and getting them hooked. We all know that SP to an old player isnt half as important as it is to the new player.
Whatever game your infering I go back too.. I never played it. I'm betting at this point you have more experience there than I do.
LP doesnt add up very fast . It takes months to get 500000 LP , which at a 1:1 trade in is only worth about 10 days training time . A reduced exchange rate would be possible.
More Titan pilots is a bad thing ?

"More Grind is a Bad Thing" isnt very McClever at all , its just your opinion , and your choice.
As for WoW . See paragraph 6 .

Edited by: RavenPaine on 06/03/2010 22:05:02 I agree that missioning is the most risk free isk making . And in some respects its unbalanced as to risk vs reward. The fact that most ppl refer to it as "grinding" also infers that its not very much fun. And I agree that if you Mine or Trade or Manufacture ,It might feel unfare .(You still dont get LP in those carears anyway tho)And those are the carears that would\should have equal balance . PvP is not a carear choice btw.
As to my playing time . Look me up ingame . Ive done almost everything there is to do , and I'm not a newb by any standards . This Idea isnt all about Me Me Me . I have missioned a lot , but I'm way past the point where faster skilling would give me an advantage over...anything. It would just be a nice option to have. For everyone.
Post Script: Also good points Revenge . Thanks btw so far , for all the solid arguments guy's.
