Default Earning Norn Points After R10

I was wondering if you think that earning norn points after r10 is a good idea? like sunspear by having no cap for the bounties in Hard Mode.

No I don't see why anyone would want to advance their alleigance points past the r10 cap, there is no reason to. Skills don't become more powerful and it has no effect on the title effect either.
But its always up to the person if they want to get x norn points just to brag, but they arent visible so it would be rather pointless

Shado, Why would it be a good idea? ask yourself that first, before asking if it's a bad idea.
Don't do stuff because you can, do stuff because it makes sense.

Is someone actually advocating the advancement of grinding in GW, saying you want to grind? Blasphemy!

I think for every title with xxx points, it should MAX and stop increasing when U have the max tier...

I absolutely HATE to see 50,565 points on LB instead of a perfect, round 50,000...

Same for drunkard, sweet tooth, etc. (But atleast those titles can be somewhat manually adjusted. With SS/LB, you sometimes get 50,001 points, which is highly annoying, because all the other titles look so "perfect".

But then again, this would only be a shallow update, but it is nontheless something that annoys me. (WHY can't it just show 50,000 SS/Lb points, it looks better...)

how about, converts all points after their designated caps into points that you can exchange for a Zaishen Key

Because it shows experience. Also, my 130k+ LB points from the old DOA days, for example, allow me to calculate roughly how many Abaddon's forces were crushed during my adventures.

Leave it as is since it is not broken.

this would be only not pointless, when anet would implement some content for reputation points over r10...

say you get 200k Rep and you will unlock with that a set of new Quests of (insert race here), which would be replayable

when you get 300k, you get a Minipet

you reach 500k and you will be able to buy another very special Race-Elite Armor, which has complete new look and is no reskin

you reach 750k and you will be rewarded with 250 Creme Bruless, 250 Fire Waters and 750 Rockets

you reach 1 Million Rep and and you will receive an eternal tonic, with that you can transform into [insert race here]

however, others have sure soem good ideas about this too... somethign such these rewards would be the only thing, that i could imagine for high rep amounts after r10 as rewards

Also, useless.

I think r10 is high enough for the reputation titles, anything more is nervebreaking.

Grinding is a waste of time. Also, those suggestions aren't realistic, might want to revise them so people can have a life. /notsigned

Same concerns here.

You can still go past r10 now doing quests and dungeons, might take you forever to even get 10k rep but it's doable if you have nothing better to do :/

5 milion rep and you get uber ursan mirite??

On a serious note, /notsigned, to both suggestions in this thread. First one is useless, second one is lolgrind.
