Post Reset on Levels?

At the moment Wintersun is in its Alpha stage. What would be different if all the levels of the players would be resetted? Would it create an Enlightened or will it create extinction to the old but make way for the new?

Give me a reason why not or why we should let there be a reset of all player levels.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me.

Reason to reset levels

People abusing exploits during alpha/beta stages unfair advantage on new players.

Also I think it will tease old players back as everyone is on a level playing field.

Sounds more like it's for your own personal benefit... I think completely resetting the levels would cause new and old players alike to just throw in the towel. Especially if they worked hard to reach their current level. Now, I can see your reasoning for this and I also think it is actually a pretty good idea. I think it would be quite nostalgic to some people (especially me). That is, having a fresh start and experiencing being a newbie again. But we must also acknowledge the negative effects as well. And if we are to go through with this, naturally, we would need a fix for the overpowered NPCs and an advanced notice stating that the levels will be reset.

Nothing to do woth any personal reasons in fact it sounds to me like your against it for your own personal reasons, Old a new players have already thrown in the towel and besides most alpha/beta games always reset level once out of said stages.

Not up for resetting the levels of players, except in the cases of 'exceptional' abuse during alpha/beta stages

I am thinking of some form of level 'entropy' however, so that if you don't play the game for 6 months the XP should 'degrade' somehow. still thinking about the best way to do this as it should prevent 'stagnation'

Basically everyone that's above the level 70+ abused the pet bug, so that can be an exceptional abuse during the beta/alpha stages.
