Accepted Increase passive income for Researchers

[Broda]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Increase the passive income that you earn but for Research roles. Double it.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Unsure.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
- Incentivise activity on the Research role. It is a core position on the server and the roleplay behind the entire SCP Universe.
- Draws players away from combative roles and encourages more passive roleplay.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- Could end up with some AFKers for money, but call staff.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
This suggestion was done by Pennington (UK DoR) and I heavily agree with it.

Research is the core part of this server's roleplay and in my opinion a department that sets the standards for if roleplay is healthy or not. Recently, combative roleplay has been so obnoxiously dominant, research has had very little opportunity to flourish within this server.

Secondly, Captain's earn more than Executives. How does this even make sense where you'd hire the most educated scientists in the world?


For reference, here are the salaries for the standard MTFs:

It needs to be far more to incentivise people to play passively, rather than combatively.

Only thing I can think of is some people could abuse it to afk grind money taking up slots would something like reports being submitted /graded by an exec+ to get a payout or something maybe? I just wouldn’t want people aftking on limited slot jobs.

Staff can kick people back to D-Class for afking in limited slot jobs

Not because this will incentivise role-playing (extra money will not make a good researcher), but because it makes sense for researchers to make more.
