so why dont we spice levelling up?
maybe make it possible to attack people whilst in jail, you get 10% rise in the exp gained, but also get another 10% added onto the jail time,

BBH quit too? Wow.Power leveling took it out of me for sure.My stats are still quite good,but when I decided to go from 33 to 40 it came at a time when I could not play alot,so it took forever! 11 weeks I think.I got bored out of my skull and then when I bought new home and trained it didn't feel the same.I could have got to the top 20 stats in 2 months but dropping from 333 to where I am now hurt.I kept thinking if I had done a marlo and trained as I leveled I would have been in the top 20 by now.Just look at my endurance XD.
I dont have the will now to start over.Shame on me!

or he can pull a CSJ/mudpies like I'm presumably doing. You know, with all my random targets, like only the Val ones after I offered a deal to not have any of them hosp'd anymore with Usha simply saying he wasn't gonna put me back in.
Yeah, definintely random there.

it's not so random if you read CI's stuff in my other thread when he wants me fed'd.
But for on topic. I kinda disagree with the power leveling. That's not why I stopped playing so seriously, it's because I can't not play to win. The waking up every 1.5 hours or less during the night, the having to train on my phone no matter what I was doing, not worth it. I didn't plan on being on this much even, just wanted to skill/career, but Val made sure I played a little more than that.
The power leveling made it fun. A new level, a chance to see how much better I could increase my trains, what crimes I could succeed at better, and how much more money I could make in a day. Being able to make no more than $55,000 at lvl 32 compared to up to $80,000/day some days at 36 was awesome.

As I haven't pwrlvled I can talk just about my impressions, and they r that I'd probably get exhausted at such a high pace 4 a sustained amount of time. Of course, there r ppl who might have fun watching the same movie 5 times a day adding a new movie each week, but I'm not 1 of those.
If that wasn't your reason it's ok BBH, but I'd prefer that to saying that u quit playing because u can't win, don't u think it sounds childish?
Have a happy semiretirement dude.

I can't play not to win = I can't play at any other level than my best. Never once did I have the ambition to be the next Pun or Ush. It's also hard to just not log into this game after putting so many hours into day after day; hence, I have nothing left but my weapon and armor for now so I'm forced to limit my play. I never intend to go inactive; I'm not fully retired; I'm just not bettering my character any longer.
My return may come, but an extended break is in order. All it takes is a click of the $100 button a few times, and I'm back where I left off.

Everyone needs a break now and then.
