Prolly cuz it only takes a few days to get to max level, so after that people only sign in to work real quick.
Change the exp/levels as well as the 16k prize credit amounts.
30 HIs
150k models
20 Thefts
These were all implemented back for the two day blitz round and they worked great. Now that its back to two weeks, people get the quick as hell, almost defeating the purpose.
It should take more time to reach the goals/peak level on here is what Im saying.

me and keith were talking about it.
if anything those prizes should take an entire round to claim, if they even get claimed at all.
Those def need updated. They need to be goals instead of being reached 20 hours into the session.
I dont blame the racers. They only need to race til 57 or so, then anytime they get on they get HId to hell. Make it take twice as long to get to 57. No reason max level should be reached after just a couple days.
There isnt really any reason to be online now a days

I honestly don't see a problem with the HI's or the Boosts (well other than the boosts are usually done with the help of friends which essentially takes the competition and fun out of it.)
I also don't think making it harder to get to 57 with the current experience system is the route to go since this affects everyone in the game. Now I can hear you now, "obviously it affects everyone in the game" but my point is this, with the current experience system and the bonus system it is VERY difficult for a non bonus exp player to get near 57. I have done it one single session, it took most of the session, it cost me $ for creds simply to race and honestly the last 1000 races WERE with the bonus.
Now this is going to sound strange coming from someone that has taken 2nd place pretty often lately but.... the prizes are simply too big. You get too many credits, with the current racing system anyone with the time can fly through the levels not because of the experience but just through sheer volume.
Lower the prize creds, change the exp system to the one I've been pushing for months and I think it will balance things out a bit. IF you do that you can adjust the exp a bit, but honestly I'd rather see more levels and attainable prices at the higher end than making what we already have harder.
How many new players do you think give up on level 10? They are going to assume that each level following gets harder....

Whether or not the exp or levels are changed, I dont really care. I spent time racing, enough to realize that its not for me.
If anything, eliminate double exp. That way it takes everyone ALL session to attain max level, like it is supposed to. This whole get to 57 right away, then barely log in just to work the rest of the session is lame. If people arent online, whats the point of even having players. We could have 1,000,000 active players but if theres only 10 on at a time its F*cking lame.
The HI, theft, and Recruit DEFINITELY need adjusted. Calder may disagree, but he wasnt here for the 2 day round when those "low" goals were implemented. They need raised.
I say 500 k sounds about right for recruit....
50 or more for HI
50 or more for Theft.....(although who really gives a sh*t about theft)
It should take close to a full 14 days to reach goals if they are going to even be there.
