This was originally posted by me under the Preview Shard Foundry forum. I moved it over here to get opinions and comments from current authors 
NO this is not a we need to be able to decide what kind of treasure since that would obviously be abused by some folks. What I am suggesting is a way of flagging a player who has completed several foundry quests as a chain and then a Treasure chest that rewards appropriate to the player class/level and time spent doing the chain. Perhaps a function of time and waypoints.
This would be rewarding to the authors, players and Cryptic;
the players it would reward them for spending the time playing an entire series of foundry quests,
the authors would be rewarded in that they would have people taking the time to play the entire series and honoring the work they invested in making the foundry series, also players would tend review longer series with appropriate rewards and perhaps even tip more
Cryptic would be rewarded in that players and authors would spend more time online playing, AND it would be a good way to identify possible authors for future expansion or content. I point to the success of such games as ARMA and Operation Flashpoint or Counterstrike where there is/was an active player authoring component. Several well known modders from these communities now work for the various companies or for other game design companies.
