I know I yelled at someone to add that awhile ago after I couldn't access the Bum on the subway.

Plus that would only hit online players if we did - someone could wait offline until we stopped taking them away and made it into a prize item, then he'd log on with 200 of them.

The taxi missions actually require more work and attention than those other jobs, save for maybe trash since you have to precision click. But if the overall goal is to 'grind for money' I'm going to take the best long-term approach (at the time this was mining, being the only leveled job.. now flowers might be on-par to a further extent, I think max bouquet matches level like 60-70 mining).

In the case of mining, or even shells/bouquet making if you buy raw flowers... you can just turn on that second monitor and watch a movie. Even before I had dual-monitors I remember minimizing Graal and watching entire trilogies (Matrix, LoTR, Godfather) everyday while nonstop mining to the point where I could mine the old 33 rock rooms with my eyes closed.



Why would I spend all these hours having 'fun' with a taxi and making just a percentage of the money, without any incremental rewards (like levels). When I could zombie my screen and watch movies all day while gaining levels and extra money.

Imo the jobs should mostly be changed to be like mini-games, something that's really fun but requires you to actually play it. Think along the lines of that Mining game that was posted on the Coding forums; it ended up being used on a recent Maloria for some time. That **** was fun.

Lol... wouldn't the first approach be to add a player login mechanic that removed/replaced them (after making them untradable)? Not sure if serious with this.
