Guild Wars 2

Upgrading camps, towers, keeps, SM etc costs supply and gold, which comes from the player that orders the upgrade. There is no personal benefit at all to, for example, buy tier 3 (fortify) SM. It costs you 2 gold though. It doesn’t really encourage players to spend that much amount of gold for a server while there is no personal reward for it.
Luckily there are enough people that do it anyway, including me, but would it be an improvement to grant a personal reward when someone buys upgrades in WvW?

Would it be a good idea to grant a personal reward when upgrades are bought?
I’m not sure in what way: Karma? Luck? Laurels? BoH? Loot? (tier 7) materials? Or a combination of these?

What do others think of this?

When I buy something in monopoly I use monopoly money, not real money.
Why not have the upgrade cost in WvW-tokens instead?

At least achievements and a title, so people can know what you’ve done for the server.

After you’ve spent 8 years doing that activity, yep.

Assuming the game lasts 8 more years.
