Pretty self explanatory subject.  It would be cool to be able to "gift" prestige to other players.  I know I have a buddy that is playing that I don't think would be willing to drop a couple bucks on prestige.  But if I were able to give him a bit of a taste of how nice having prestige is (beyond what you start with) , perhaps he'd be more apt to buy some when he runs out.

Hi Nietzsche,

You can (currently) purchase prestige for other players if you are a sitter on their account, if that helps!  You can't spend their prestige (whilst sitting) but you *can* buy prestige for them to spend, whilst you're logged in as a sitter.

Having said that, I quite like the idea of gifting prestige to accounts - so long as it isn't "free" prestige: otherwise you can imagine that people will create X accounts and then gift their 25 starting prestige to one account...

But, all-in-all, a good idea I feel, and I'll run it past the rest of the dev team for thoughts about implementation.

Best,

SC

Would it also be possible to work in some sort of mechanism to allow you to utilize your own prestige while sitting an account?
