I'm sure the people who actually claim the faucet would prefer something different to take its place as well provided the reward was still equal. Still looking for suggestions on that.
I still think the faucet is necessary, but throwing some suggestion around won't hurt... here's some of my suggestions with their cons (in my opinion, anyway), they are ridiculous as usual.
1. the only thing that I can think as an "equal" to faucet is rakeback. but it'll lost the one important feature that faucet has, helping newcomers get used to the site.
2. a level-based tip rains is also equal. but there's a big problem with that (alts, acc selling, and maybe some more)
3. you can also reward users for getting achievements and leveling up, that will reduce the account selling problem; but it'll make the chat spammy unless you remove the chat achievements.
there you go, now I can sleep in peace
