What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Giving SCPs XP for participating in testing and sampling two basic ways to do this. When an SCP is sampled the first time with a syringe it is given a good boost of XP. Additionally SR+ or perhaps just regular researcher+ and jr researcher *with approval obviously* can do !credit (scp number) for example to credit the 096 you would do !credit 096 for double SCPs like 939 when you do !credit 939 it will credit both 939s
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I do not think so
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Encourages SCPs to actually engage with the rp of testing and sampling instead of wanting to murder those who do try to test or sample because you only get XP if you murder.
Makes it more likely for an SCP to get on when called for testing or sampling.
Helps SCPs gain levels even when not breached encouraging them to actually be on even with a high breach timer
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
If abused this will make it so someone can power level any kind of SCP I suppose, a cooldown can help which should be a cooldown for ALL SCPs when you credit the SCPs.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
[Response here] I do believe this would potentially help encourage SCPs to actually participate in testing and sampling, I do think it should be accepted because to many SCPs are too murder happy.
