Kwee,
I had an idea that may be simple coding and a great fix of the XP gain issue, and I'm wondering if you can run it pass the devs to see what they think. 
If they could add some coding the would keep a log of what customers you have ID, (which later could used in adding a customer rolodex 
) Then they could add a second piece of coding to the XP reward code to check your customer log, and if your current customer is not on the log is then added to the log and you are given an XP bonus.
) Then they could add a second piece of coding to the XP reward code to check your customer log, and if your current customer is not on the log is then added to the log and you are given an XP bonus.So instead of just IDing one customer over and over again, players would want to ID as many deferent players as they can. I know it not easy to get customer pre-master for IDs, but with stat migration and some lower prices then master it should not be too hard.

I actually asked about your customer roladex idea and it was nono'd b/c of time constraints. I'm guessing it isn't simple to code

Hehehe, that is why I said "which later could used in adding a customer roladex "
I really don't know how simple or hard of coding making a customer list would be, nor coding an reward for for IDing someone not on the list. But I feel it would really add to the profession something the devs would like, andwould be the most bang for the buck (as they like things to be)

P.S. IF an customer list was added, they could also "Later" add badges that say you have ID 100 deferent customers.
What IDer would not want that?

I asked several weeks ago Voor, when you first came up with the idea. In general though I've been told no new features are likely to be added at this point.

Sorry ifI'm beinga pain,but just want to make sureI understand correctly. When you say "I asked several weeks ago" did you asked about "rolodex" or "New Customer Bonus"?

I asked about the rolodex, which I figured might be an easy thing to code in. Keeping track of all of our customers as well as which ones are new in a certain timer period does not sound like an easy thing to code.

It is most likely an easy thing to code, however I'm thinking that the strain on the databases might be what keeps the DEVs from implementing it.
Now, I'm certainly no expert on databases, in fact I detest them with passion.
Anyway, I'm thinking that if all Image Designers have all of their customers as well as the date of the last ID session stored, that would be a huge increase of data...
