Oh? Why not? It won't fix the problems with the current system forever, but at least, it won't take half a year to level up anymore again

Until levels get far apart agin and people complain again, which is why they have yet to do it.

it's still better than nothing.

Not really, newgrounds would have to calculate more levels resulting in more(unneccesary) bandwidth use. In actuality, it makes thing slightly worse.


Also, has Tom or anyone said whether the level requirements will still be distributed linearly? I could imagine a system where they're not, which would also make it easier for people who haven't reached the highest levels yet to level up.

You don't need new levels to do that.


And of course, the new pictures will probably look cool. :)

Or they might suck, once they're in though you're stuck with them. And that's only the least of the problems with it.

I have no idea how there'd be more bandwidth needed because there's more levels.

You don't need new levels to do that.

Indeed, but also introducing new levels would make the transition easier, since the difference between an "old" and a "new" level would be clearer.

Or they might suck, once they're in though you're stuck with them. And that's only the least of the problems with it.

The ones that Tom posted didn't suck, at least.

I have no idea how there'd be more bandwidth needed because there's more levels.

The quote above your statement explains it. Calculating all the new levels and distances between and how it effects users, which there are a lot of, will suck a lot of bandwidth.


Indeed, but also introducing new levels would make the transition easier, since the difference between an "old" and a "new" level would be clearer.

Not really, all you have to do is cap level 30, which is much simpler.

I'm not pestering them - I'm just not chastising them.

The quote above your statement explains it. Calculating all the new levels and distances between and how it effects users, which there are a lot of, will suck a lot of bandwidth.

I'm still not sure what you mean, unless you're confusing bandwidth with CPU power (and seriously, do you think that that's really a problem? I don't know how big NG's server farm is, but I doubt that calculating XP requirements for 60 instead of 30 levels each day will be a big problem. Not to mention that Tom and Wade and all the NG folks aren't stupid, so if it really were such a big drain on system resources, they simply wouldn't have done it: thus, the mere fact that they *are* implementing it proves that it's not going to be a problem with regard to resource usage.)

Not really, all you have to do is cap level 30, which is much simpler.

That'd work, although I'd personally be more in favour of doing away with the whole "only those users with the highest amount of XP are level 30" thing. Still allow people to deposit, but don't make the level requirements go up anymore. (Or was that what you meant?)
