Re-setting RP points

[Pollux]

I could hardly ever devise a more pointless "fix" to such a non-issue, even if given a full time job at the goofy non-issue fixing think tank factory. Which by the way- FL owners- is a job I'm open to take (especially if the payroll if in RP points lmao)

But what is this talk about "RPP that are logged and those that aren't" ?
When and how did this happen? How extreme is this gap in the worst of cases?

Anything that shows up as a row (point with a reason + admin who gave it) on the character page is "logged": https://fearlessrp.net/character.php

If there's any difference in the amount of entries there versus the points you actually have (number above them all), the remaining are all "unlogged" and would likely be removed for any revamp. For most the difference shouldn't be too much, but there are extreme cases where people would lose a lot more. The reason behind removing them is simply due to it being difficult to track and validate; some players have an extremely suspicious amount of "unlogged" points which we're unable to validate or track at all. In contrast, logged points tell us when it was given, who by and what the reason for it was. If we transferred any points 1:1 to any new system, that new system is pretty much useless unless we inflate the cost to insanely high numbers which just makes it unobtainable for most. If we only transfer "logged" points, it isn't as bad. This definitely runs the risk of removing many legitimate RPPs, but it is the only clear way to maintain some reward for those who already have points while balancing progression in any new system.

For context, discussions so far about any new system would have them be single use but any items purchased also being tradable. Less like the current linear "reward" system and more of a second currency that you obtain via roleplay. This is why we would need to reduce the top end of points in some way so we can actually balance it around regular players rather than just the top few. We'd also be able to hand them out much more often without having to worry about inflating it if they're a currency. It's very early in planning, but definitely a better system so far.
