How would you like to see it work?
What can CCP do to monetize rollover SP?
Should nublets be granted the privilege to grind to the SP values of top vets, or just to a certain value?
Was CCP Nothin fired for speaking on the topic of rollover SP?
Why does this game need to be a second job if I want to keep up?
Who decided that this current system was good enough to keep in place for so long?
CCP Nothin wrote:Now, in regard to the weekly skill cap and the implications of it:
We acknowledge that the current implementation of the skill cap still isn't quite there yet. It doesn't quite allow people to choose when to play as freely as we would like, and it also adds some unnecessary complexity when it comes to using active boosters. This is why we are working our way towards a rollover SP system: instead having your pool of bonus SP being reset according to a fixed weekly cycle, you will steadily accumulate bonus SP to a pool over time that you can then empty through fighting in battles. As a result, everyone should be able to better choose when to come in and claim the available SP. Moving to such a system would have the added benefit of allowing us to make active boosters to give out a constant value over time by having them influence the rate at which SP accumulates into the pool instead of just multiplying SP received at the end of each battle.
The quote comes from the link in my sig, and shall be my battle cry.

But in reality, I think CCP knows that if we have rollover SP, we'll no longer need our weekly SP fix, and the habit keeping us playing Dust might be kicked.
For this thread, I actually don't want likes. I want people to chime in. I edited the OP to reflect this, as I don't want this to be viewed as a like farm.

I want it to be a message to CCP that a video game should not be a second job to keep pace with others, and I should decide when I want to play. IF YOU AGREE, DO NOT LIKE THIS POST. POST IN THE THREAD INSTEAD, EVEN IF IT'S JUST "+1". Troll post. You've been around longer then i have. You know as well as any Vet the reason they haven't added in the rollover system was because it became completely borked due to the booster multipliers, and they haven't figured out how to address the issue. I know this from the multiple threads that have popped up over the past year and a half, asking what happened to it, with the DEVS responding with the above answer. You enjoy farming likes more then playing the game, don't you?
Actually, if you could read the big, bold letters at the bottom of the post, I specifically ask for no likes. If I wanted to farm likes, I'd jump into some "TANKS OP" thread and agree.

I noticed.
Yet the only reason for a troll post is to garner likes.
Continue trolling.
If the only purpose of a troll post is to garner likes, then wouldn't the OP asking you to NOT like the thread make it a non-troll post?
Continue talking out your ass. It amuses me.

That's why I'm suggesting a method that should see the same average of log ins and playing but it will be spread out over the weak instead of Wednesday through Sunday
I actually had never considered a moving cap like that. It's definitely better than what we have now.

this is all want to start to get rid of proto Wednesday and dead server Tuesday. it wouldnt change how much you get currently at all but would be an improvement to flexibility. Can you explain this further? I'm not sure if I get it. Weekly cap without boosters is 190k, or 27k per day. So if it is reset on Wednesday, and I play on Wednesday, I can only earn up to 27k toward my cap and then it goes back to 1000 SP per match? What prevents people from waiting to play until Monday/Tuesday so that 6-7 days worth of cap are built up, and using boosters as usual? Wouldn't this only change the grind days?
Basically, you get 27k added to your cap every downtime. You could look at it as seven separate SP pools, one for each day in a week. If, after a week, you didn't use all of the SP in the oldest pool, it would be overwritten with the new 27k, and all unused SP would be lost.
So yes, you could grind out 27k on Wednesday and cap out for the day, but you'd get another 27k tomorrow. If you didn't use all of Wednesday's 27k by next week, you'd forfeit any remaining SP and be bumped back to 27k.
As he said, this would allow you to save up for a few days, then play the game at your leisure and cap it out, also alleviating "Proto Wednesday" and "Dead Tuesday".
