I've been here approximately one year or so, & I purchased all buy skills available; however, I now have 400 at this time. I have thought how neat it would be if there were additional skills we could purchase to help. I know this has been brought up in the past, and probably several times before. I thought it would be nice if we could transfer buy skills to new agents from other agencies, to come and help the newer agencies check cases or work on treasure hunts, in exchange for a few buy skills, that is, if Ben can create a way to do this. We could post it on the board here that we need help so that all agencies could keep track of whats going on, and who is where. This would help the newbies in the older agencies as well as the newer agency in need of help.I have tried to think of other ways they could be spent but I couldn't really think of anything other than more skills created to help our arch type, and Ben has pretty much covered all of it. I'm sure there's something else that could be useful. Anyway, I'd love hear some responses on this, cause these 400 buy skills are burning a hole in my head....and no comments on that please..hehe. Ah that's OK, you can comment all you like. Happy Sleuthing everyone. Wow, it's lightening here and a bad storm brewing, so I have to hurry and hardshut my computer off. I will come back and read this when the storm is over. Bye.

What about having two options in opening a treasure hunt, either use buy skills or money. Here's another thought, trade in buy skills for cash or use them to get special equipment from "The Order of Socrates, Dies, or La Costra Nostra?"

Oops, sorry everyone, but I didn't mean to mislead anyone. The amount of buy skills I stated above is not correct. When I checked to see how many I thought I had, I only glanced and had looked at the number of total skills spent which were 400, instead of the amount of buy skills left to spend which were 198. I told my spouse, Goldfinger, that I really goofed this time, that Ben will probably check it out and think what in the world did she state that, lol. I knew when I glanced at it that it sounded like an awful lot of buy skills, but since it's been sometime since I last checked, I just assumed I had this many..lol. If anyone here has 400 or more, that would be Bella Luna....for she's been here a long time and has won many a treasure hunt. Well, I'm still anxious to spend what I have, but if there's never anything more to buy, I'll enjoy seeing how many I can collect, as I continue building my experience points.

How about an auctioning system (has been stated before)? The auction would be for a certain exclusive skill or item. It would last for a long time, like a week, and whoever bid the most points (and has them) wins the item/skill. I don't know. Just a thought.

Hey, jojo. Just checked back by to see if there were any responses. The auction sounds good. Who knows, there might be some neat skills added that we can buy in the near future.
