phedre said:Keep in mind that rit scrolls and catalysts don't come from the production point portion of treasure policy. They are based on attendance numbers. They are not intended to have value when they travel, even though the items they create can. The arguement here seems to be that there should be another form of treasure that can travel which would come out of production points... while I think it's a very cool idea in theory, I have to agree that it's a lot more work put onto an already hardworking group of volunteers.
Treasure policy is treasure policy (which, make no mistake, I am well versed in). Whether it comes from the production pool or the ritual allotment is irrelevant; the idea that if something came out of treasure policy it should have value all over the Alliance is unsupported by existing policy. My point in referencing scrolls and catalysts is that there is precedent for items distributed within the framework of the treasure policy to have no value outside of the originating chapter.
Would it be nice? Sure, but what I'm reading in this thread sounds a lot more like entitlement (why can't I transfer this legit treasure?) than creative collaboration.
