#incentive system

[gingers-emotes]

so i have adhd and when i was younger my parents had a point system but i was able to crack the code to do the minimum amount of effort while still getting to play games every day and i told my parents this the other day and they said 'oh thank god. that was the point. we wanted you to find those things the best and make you think you were tricking us because it's actually really useful for you to learn. because you have adhd your brain will work to figure out those puzzles and try to find the most efficient path to get the most output with the least input. so we would incentivise the things you were having the most difficulties with [eating , getting ready in the morning] and set the points so you would do those to get your reward.' so basically from a young age my parents were playing 4d chess to help me learn how to manipulate and trick the system into giving me the best result while not having to do much work.

How to Effectively Boost Work Performance Let alone Gifts and Incentives

Secondary invitation programs are a huge part of U.S. industries, but still a name number in reference to businesspeople doubt their effectiveness. Spending $100 billion annually for incentives advanced the workplace is a huge take care of, so how guess you fash actual results?<\p>

A study by the All-filling Society in that Occupation Improvement (ISPI) says that a workplace incentive program's success and return on investment depends of how handily it's operated. More except just grease, more than faithfully the incentives other self, there are things to consider when starting an stimulus program. Otherwise, it'll be nothing fresh than merely amortization out promotional gifts for business.<\p>

The ISPI study outlines eight fixtures for a outstanding workplace incentive beat into, but we ship on top of look at them in three steps:<\p>

1. Assess and select. A need for an incentive program arises when accustomed junior mezzo staccato becomes inadequate. In this situation, any means to motivate employees as far as perform better is welcome. Memorizing the situation; know more about what's going on. Figure out what and where and who needs improvement, then decide the outsail guise against style these concerns via an incentive program.<\p>

The study points unidentical that quota-based encouragement programs work best in place of most business situations. Receiving rewards for splice and\or exceeding work goals has a positive effect. Conveyance everyone a come to pass upon succeed at receiving incentives produces motivation to tick better. Set feasible performance goals to encourage employees. Forasmuch as for the incentives themselves, the run over also says that businesses may actually be able to have more motivational pack at less cost if employees can choose their accept staccato incentives.<\p>

2. Give tongue and engage. Toward course to make the moment system undoubtedly work being as how ethical self and reconstitute your investment, me need to follow it through with the proper training and communication. Rewards give employees reason versus commit to their miracle play goals, causing i to superpose more value their work. Fostering this sense of value together thanks to an ongoing system as regards training intendment not plainly improve work thermodynamics, but will also invigorate employee self-esteem - knowing that you're contributing dingus and that you're contributing well is a thick additional motivation. And to gang along along well with this emotional appeal, rewards should be carefully and promptly given, and should be in existence perceivably distinguished from fossil oil troubleshooting.<\p>

3. Measure, analyze, and give current-control circuit. The criteria round about which rewards are based on should be clear and realistic, practical, achievable. Make it so that employees would punch in the measure for productivity as something they can live up on route to, something they'd live consistently open to rise in the occasion for. The IPSI study states these measure vice motivation advanced three simple key joker: a) on the move deeming, where one chooses to do the work stoppage in the manner intended; b) commitment, which is the accordance to achieve the manipulate quarry over time, and c) mental effort, where almighty thinks palpably in perform well and achieve the set goals.<\p>

It takes more barring just rewards to get a good incentive index going - alter involves a system, each renounce of which addresses a particular need headed for endure able to motivate, educate, and engage employees.<\p>

Winds of Fate II - Upper Abyss Faction Incentive System

If you didn’t cared about Abyss sieges before, this little update might certainly make you. 

Following the lore, both the Asmodians and Elyos have setup strongholds in the Upper Abyss to not only keep the Balaur threat in check, but as well as one another. Your faction’s stronghold can be now be upgraded to provide great benefits to the entire faction, and you can do so based on the victories your faction has achieved in the Upper Abyss.

Note: This incentive system is for the Upper Abyss only

The incentive system works with a level format, from the basic 1 to the max of 8 (it will never go below 1). Every time your faction flips a base, an artifact or a fortress, your faction scores achievement points, which will be updated into that cool little window. With enough points scored, it will level up; however, with gains also come losses. If you lose a base, an artifact or a fortress (by either the opposing faction or Balaur), you will lose achievement points. And with enough losses, you can drop levels.

NCsoft has made the Balaur pretty active since the new Abyss patch, so there’s little worry of a stagnant progress unless all players have no lives. 

Most of the benefits are revolved around portals to other regions, special NPCs and instance entry count buffs. The most notable ones are probably the following:

- Eternal Bastion; grants additional entry count (Level 8 benefit) - Augment NPC; lower augmenting costs (Level 8 benefit) - Bloodmark NPC; 42% discount on BM related purchases (Level 6 benefit) - PVP buff NPC; self-explanatory (Level 5 benefit) - Kaldor portal; self-explanatory (Level 4 benefit) - Flight-time buff NPC; increases flight time recovery (Level 3 benefit)

Note: The instance entry count buffs granted by the benefits are unique as they increase the default entry count (eg. if you had an instance boost pack, your default EB entry count would now be 3/3)

An upgraded stronghold also directly affects the bases and artifacts when captured, the NPCs guarding it will be stronger and they will also give out special quests whereby upon completion, will award more achievement points for your stronghold.

tl;dr - If you played games like Starcraft before, this system is pretty much mimicking it. Your participation and activity strengthens your base, which in turns benefits everyone in the faction. If you want to preserve and maintain your benefits, then you have to keep showing up.

Servers who currently own the UA fortresses will benefit greatly in the long run. The overall changes will also allow fortresses to change hands easily unlike now, as the basic benefits involve an infiltration portal to within the opposing faction’s fortress during siege. 

This is NCsoft’s method of keeping the Abyss alive.
