haha I know the struggle with Drills and the Slots xD
Dunno how in line with the norm my experiences are but thought I'd put 'em out there regardless. There are other areas of the site I'd like to engage in (BQ/DQ! Games! Actually working on my pets! Posting on the forums!) but just don't have time for them. I'm not discontent with the current system, and it's very much my own choice to prioritize quests over doing those things, but... questing is far and away the steadiest, largest source of income on this site for your average player (aside from buying and selling csc/items that require csc). I'd pretty much be shooting myself in the foot if I didn't.
I don't know if you start getting too 'chancey', I know at least I would less likely do quests. There is a reason I do not do chance bags/machine, I feel the reward isn't worth it in the end. So I think some of these suggestions are a little too 'chancey' or have the potential to be.
Also hope they do not become too time consuming to where I wouldn't feel like doing them, looking at you Major Drills and your leviathans.
I wouldn't care about the less quests as long as the sp didn't plummet to where I was making NOTHING for a day. Obviously 12mil (last 2 days) way too much, but I like my 2-3mil (avg) for quests.
Although many of the suggestions could be interesting I would just be worried about how they are implemented.

I can't really agree with only being able to do 3-5 quests per day from each Quest Giver (unless this was just meant for Saggi). Doing the quests the way they are now and selling the rewards is honestly the only way I even continue making sP on this site. I don't know how to RS efficiently, haven't vended in months, don't sell CSC, or create/sell CWs.
I'd like more of a mid-ground on sP. I have no idea what to do on quest prizes. Maybe make them rotate every month to a whole new set and they don't get put back in until that following month the next year? Could space them out for every 6 months. Could also have it not give out as many items per quest. Like maybe only a chance at getting a extra item and it's only sP?
I don't like the idea of dropping the number of quests again. Like said, they really don't take that long to do right now. Sure, some people don't have the time to complete all quests every day, but that's normal in any game. If we keep restructuring things to suit the players with the least amount of time, then those of us with more time to spend on Subeta will just get bored.
Now if you change any of them to be more involved (like Major Drills), then yes, it makes sense to up the payout and reduce the number of quests. But as it is now, regular quests take maybe 15 seconds to complete, which isn't any time at all.

I personally would dislike this. Two days ago was the first time in ages i was actually able to spend time on subeta and i did my quests and they were done super quickly (no gold apparently makes a huge time difference. Less quest, less time invested.). And then I had this void: what now? What does one do without quests?
Vending became worthless, restocking isn't exactly my favourite hobby, the games get boring: so how do you make money and how do you spend your time if everything is changed to require less time?

ia that I wouldn't like the number of quests lowered further. Doing my regular quest rotation takes all of 30 minutes. Doing BQ takes me another 30. Doing all of the regular quests takes me about 30 more minutes. So, an hour and a half total if I feel like grinding through all of the quests.
After that I run out of things to do. I hate Drills, and BB needs a revamp. Games are too unprofitable compared to questing and RSing to be anything other than frustrating imo. RSing is not my bag. Vending is totally useless now. And I've got anxiety so I'm not exactly going to lurk in the SB or the chatty forums all day talking about nothing with strangers.
I don't always have lots of time to spend on Subeta, but when I DO have the time I end up spending it not on Subeta b/c I feel like I run out of things to do.
If quests were to be dropped down to say 5 a day then I'm going to have to find another site to waste my time on. I'm not meaning this as the threat "I'll leave if you do x!" I mean it as I'll have nothing to do. I don't like to battle, restocking is a hell no, I've given up on working on my pets (beyond tossing items in tcs), I don't like to chat in the forums, and games can only be played so much a day on the ones I can play.
Quests are what keep me here. If I stop messing around I can finish all but Drills, Sarah (can't do her), and Battle in under an hour. I think I'm one of the ones who falls outside the normal here. Back when quests were 30 a day I usually did all of them not including Sarah/Amy.
I don't know though what I'd do if they were made more like Drills. omg I get bored 3 quests in. I still try and get through them if I have the time before midnight.

No thank you to only 2-5 quests per day for each quest giver. I liked when the quests were halved from 20/30 to 10/15 since the original numbers were crazy high even for frequent players (especially before the shop search buttons were added to the pages), but dropping to less than the current numbers is going to seriously limit what players have to do on the site. This seems like a potential revamp that focuses on the typical user with an average of fifteen minutes a day that they play on Subeta, and it kinda seems like it shafts the users who tend to spend more time each day onsite. The quests currently only take all of an hour to complete excluding Major Drills anyway, and that's with a gold account.
I actually am okay with how quests are running right now-- because it's the best way that I've learned to make sP on the site. That's also where I've gotten better items to restock my shop with. I also dislike the idea of making a limit of 5 quests per NPC.
My only complaint about Saggi is the times when I spend a few mil on the quest and get 100k in return. Then it feels like a waste of my time.
I actually like how the quests are as of right now. He has been asking for less items that aren't as expensive. Also, I am still getting 100k+ for each quest I do. I wouldn't mind receiving 1 rare item instead of points from him, even if it was just for every tenth quest you do for him. That might motivate people to do all 10 quests for the day if they get a nice prize at the end (like the Wizard).
