    It's  great when you get up into the 30th level of visiting the springs, but please. Really? Do we have to come on every single day just to keep our level up? I stopped coming on to res because I missed one day due to the fact that I had a funeral to attend to.
    Someone once asked if we could loose just a couple points after not visiting for several days, I think that would be good. Also, the prizes shouldn't be negative, I've lost almost a hundred thousand tu already and my pets are loosing health.

I agree that the 'punishment' for not going to the springs everyday seems a bit severe. I recently lost my 280 day streak, and was very disheartened to have to start all over again.

However I don't think the 'negative' prizes so far like health points and tu loss is consequential. The most you ever lose in one go is like 100k, which can be so easily made back. The only complaint I have is when the springs make you lose stat points, because there is absolutely no way to gain them back.

No support from me-- The Springs are a prize for coming on to Res every day, a reward and a privilege. 
I think they should stay as that, particularly since some of the prizes (like colour changes) can be very valuable and if you get high enough it would be quite easy to maintain at least a Tier 3 standing even if you were gone for weeks.

They would become less of an accomplishment and reward for your vigilance if it was made a hundred times easier to keep your spot, in my opinion.

What I consider a better alternative s Tier drops. Say you're in Tier 3 and you're gone for a day-- now you're in Tier 2. That way, you're not at rock bottom if you managed to climb to the top.

Then again dusty. Imagine having a 200+ days streak
And get sent all the way down to 16?
I would support the idea of going down a tier. If only there werent only three tiers?

There isn't a difference in prizes from 16 days or 200 days, so I don't think that's really a problem. xD
I'm still for the total clearing if you miss a day honestly, I think just going down a tier is generous.

The problem with adding Tiers is that people will want more prizes too. Colour changes are already really cool, the only thing I can think of to add in terms of making it even "better" and more generous is maybe Tier 4 would be the removal of negative effects like tu reduction or health reduction.

Support from me. I just missed a day yesterday due to RL family emergency and dropped back down to 0 from 139. That's over 4 months of logging in every. day. My streak was the only thing that kept me coming back to Res every day. Now that I've lost that, I don't even feel like coming back. The "punishment" is way too heavy after we've been so loyal to Res.

I suggest that for every day missed, we drop, say, 10 levels. Then it's not excruciatingly painful if we miss a day or two -- especially if, like in my case, it couldn't be helped. But those levels will rack up (or, down) enough to hurt if we're away for awhile.
