Hard resets nuke progress and goodwill. They fight gaming but also erase authentic effort, pushing users to rivals. Prefer soft decay: points age unless refreshed by meaningful actions. Introduce seasons with rollover bonuses, where past merit discounts future grind. Make resets narrative—mechanics change because the product did, not because scorekeepers got bored. Offer conversion sinks—badges, governance weight, fee discounts—so effort crystallizes into permanent value. People accept endings if they keep souvenirs that matter. Burn fatigue, not trust.
