New Pusher Bot Program, Push or Get Pushed, Your Choice :)

Post by Oof » Sat Aug 09, 2003 11:41 pm

Ok, here's the deal, tell your friends and your chain family! We are going to try running a formal pusher program that will start up during the next week or two. I'll put out rules for being a pusher, if you would like an easy way to push a level 50 quickly to level 70 or beyond, so watch the boards on Monday or Tuesday. I'll try to put the rules up for it then.

Basically, it will require having a character you can leave logged in a significant number of hours per day, having very high base loyalty on the character, and dumping everything bit of the XP you get from the hunters until loyalty, until we say it's high enough. ;) After you are too high a level to use for the bottom of the chain, you can untrain loyalty and get all of that XP back to use for whatever you'd like to use it. There will be other guidelines for having a pusher too, but the ones above are the main ones.

During the last few weeks, we have been testing the idea of a fairly relaxed horizontal pusher program for the chain. That idea seems to work. I have purposely almost completely NOT hunted Borg during the last three weeks while we've been running a pusher bot at the VoD LS. I decided to not hunt him directly for a couple of reasons. One was so I could easily tell which XPs were from the pusher effort. The other is that I have been hunted Oof with the pusher when I can, and Oof and Borg are on the same account.

Borg has a 147 million XP credit right now, all of which came from the pusher effort. The other thing to note about this is that only a small handful of people have been hunting with the pusher bot. Highto last hunts consistently during some of the mornings, Acaddict hunts almost every single night with the bot and usually puts 20 million a night into it. There have been several other people hunt too, and some have been consistent with the hunting, but I can't think of any names right now. If I left your name out, I apologize. :oops:

Another BM is sworn directly to Borg, but there are a few characters under Borg in the chain now, so we need to get a little more organized on the pushers. There is a new pusher on the VoD LS now. Her name is Trade Camel. She is sworn directly to the bottom of the FC now. I may still leave BM up there at times, at least until people learn Trade Camel is the official pusher on the LS. She will probably last for a couple of weeks before she outgrows the job.

So, make a fellow, recruit Trade Camel, and go help out the lowest members of the Food Chain. You will be helping yourself out too, in the process. :D

Hiya Oof,

Widow-Mage (above) was enquiring about this for me.

I've uploaded my stats to your site, and have been officially accepted to the chain. I'm guessing that I'm at the bottom, as no one is swearing to me (yet) - so I was wondering if you would like another pusher?

I have a cable connection, so I can leave him logged in for about 20 hours a day. I'm in the UK too, so I won't be playing him at peak US times. He's currently level 53 (stats are uploaded - The General). I agree to pump his loyalty as per your terms.

If you're interested, just let me know where / when I would need to leave him.

Cheers,

The General
