Then the problem lies in the fact that a bunch of players can get together and easily farm CQ's off eachother with no skill or commitment at all required, it won't reward time dedicated PvPing. Why put together CQ rewards (And I'm sure it will require quite some fidgeting with the database to allow transactions based on CQ's) when people can so easily circumvent the intent of it? And if the devs wanted to try prevent this then they will have to play with the CQ system even more.
So above all differences of opinions (Yes I'm agreeing to disagree with others), you have to think about the development time for it, which I'm not sure is worth it right now when Rarebit is taking a risk moving the game development cycle in it's new direction.
What if they put in an item or another amount to track (named something like I don't know, Combat Points?) that you got along with CQ so they wouldn't have to reset CQ, but you could only earn a certain amount a day. That would greatly hinder people who would just farm them to get whatever item, they wouldn't have to reset CQ, and it would make the content last longer as it'd take a longer time to get the item.
Thoughts?
Even in that case people can still aquire the points without taking part in PvP and just take turns killing eachother. And still, there would be some fiddling required in the system to somehow allow transactions between these "Combat Points" and actual items.

Not quickly nor efficiently, since once you kill someone it takes a while before you can gain a CQ off of them again.
6 people all walk into datamine on the same mission team, then all go about killing eachother and the last person suicides. 6 CQ points for all, they sit down and chat for 5 minutes then kill eachother again. A little over a CQ a minute at that rate.
"That would greatly hinder people who would just farm them to get whatever item". Wouldn't stop them, but it'd be a good enough fix. I don't think there's a way to 100% stop people from farming CQs if CQ rewards are introduced.
OMG 15 pages of useless wishes!
Yall must realize that we will never receive nothin from SOE!

I do believe there was a time when people thought we were never going to get an email system, much less an email system to mail items to ourselves/others.

The best thing would be, to get a dev. to answer if this ever going to happent.
Oh yeah we are so lucky, now we have a mail system.......even hello kitty adventure island has a better system!
Dude open ur eyes, SOE will not give us nothin, i'm here since the begin and i dont expect nothin just cause of my loooong time stickin here.
I have almost 16k cqs so im one of the most interested in this, but i know i will never receive nothin, even like a VET player i am.

How do you know of "Hello Kitty's" system and since when did they "promise" us anything?
Indeed, nothing at all has changed in MxO since the transition to SOE, nothing new added at all.

GF, lol.
K.. maybe I already responded to this...
Ordinarily I'd read all 20 some pages of responses, and double check but In this case its simple...
NO
Heavily exploitable. And besides the whole point of C(ombat)Q(uantity) Points is useless bragging rights. So please, have fun (the real point of PvP), do your braqging and stop asking for other stuff.

I could have sworn CQ stood for "Combat Quotient"
