Well, I get that. I get that you only let people who are dedicated to your thing to make changes and do stuff, but on the other side of that coin, people are less likely to adopt something they can't make their own.

Imagine you've just bought a house (yes yes, I know I didn't purchase anything), but I wasn't able to paint my house or do anything until I had greased the local politicians and went down and picked up trash in the park for a few weeks, or whatever. It's going to be a lot less sexy for me to want to move to a place where I can't immediately start doing things to my plot of land without having to jump through hoops.

I don't know, perhaps that's the price you pay for a better system. I'm just saying what I've felt in the past, and still do at this point. (And hoping I can get some damned points so I can level up or something LOL -- so I CAN adopt Snapzu.)
