Marks Exchange (At a 2:1 Loss)

So here's my crazy idea: make a mark exchange system, but do it at a 2:1 loss ratio, so as to encourage people to still play the different content rather than just letting them play the content they like and/or that rewards the most.

So say I've got 100 omega marks, but I need nukara marks? I can swap those 100 omega marks for 50 nukara marks.

Same thing with all the reputations including Fleet Marks.

If you've got marks of one kind and needs them of another, you can swap them in - but you do so at a 2:1 loss.

Thus it's still more efficient to play a mark-specific mission than it is to do the swap; but if you're in a pinch or you're willing to sacrifice such, you can swap what you've got for what you need.

    That's a crazy idea alright. 2:1, don't think it'll be worth the effort and time...

    Bunny catcher 300 mark mission to 150 of any i want? Sound fine

    Borg stfs reward tons of dilithium as well.

    I like the idea... but dont think its gonna fly.

    Dev's are clear that they want you to play the content that rewards the specific marks... part of how they justify content is by number of plays... if we could all just STF our way to all reps... thats what a good number of players would do... I have over 20k Omega marks on 1 toon alone... at 2:1 I'd never have to play new content (or even meet a Tholian) to level in that area.

    And that is why they don't want marks to be exchanged...

    Sitting on 45k Omegas... are burning a hole in my bank account.
    Having a use for them other than dil ore would be nice.
