Thus, i dont know whether providing an online gambling service is legal, but if it was, it might be worth expanding on the idea?
This has very little to do with an ingame gambling facility, but for the record that would be legal so long as it doesn't involve any real money (afaik).

More specifically with your proposal, i am unsure as to how exactly this will help newbies, however i'll go off and read your other thread now.
If I help my new galmate reach rank X, I can earn resources. It's incentive.
