Money making continues to be a hassle for some on this site (graphics pay roughly half of what the ISFL pay and as a media grader there is a lot of underappreciated and underpaid written media) and those that put in the work to maintain a max earning account are de-incentivized to really care moving forward. I'm not talking about crazy ridiculous peaks. It's more about longevity.

Sure this is a broad sweeping change that will likely increase parity in some ways. Stats will likely be unchanged (interested to see how that is impacted, though). But I can only seeing the increased turnover turning a lot of people off recreating. Simply too much of a slog to get one year at the top and then fall off a cliff. But it is what it is. Hopefully it does work out in the long run. Feel sorry for the S53 and S54 people. I'll still have another year before I get hit in the face with regression now. So whatever.

If money making was such an issue we would see more people applying for site jobs. At present we get next to no applications, if people are having trouble with cash I suggest they apply for the multitude of positions available.

Depends what job tbh. If we're talking about jobs like SHL GM its just that people don't want to leave their friend group. I do think money making is a problem though. Some people simply would rather make money when they have time (graphics/media) than try to fit a site job into often busy schedules. 

I'm fine with regression speeding up if we're properly correcting the cost of updating/equipment. Boost graphic and media base payouts by 20% and maybe things will be a little less hard to swallow. Because right now it looks like a lot of work for less payoff now.
