Every 3-4 days I've got ~150k unspent LP. 20k is a quick hunting session for me.

-1 to OP; it would seriously discourage people from playing after they earn their daily LP, no matter what the amount.

20k is 3 Lvl X bears.

This is the terriblist idea ever, for so many reasons. :)

In fact all you'd do is cripple new characters and make older characters godlike.

Indeed. If I only harvest my wheat, grind it to flour, and make farming hats from the straw, I gain 100k LP in about 3 hours.
That's at 400% learning, thanks to decent tea.

100k LP. And then, I haven't even made bread dough >> Pirozhikis, and other bakeables yet.

Furthermore, the OP's idea sucks.

I hope to god the OP is trolling.
20k cap per day is NOTHING. I can make that in less than 30 minutes if I go on a good hunting trip.
This game is a sandbox game, we can do what we want when we want. If we want to grind LP for skills we should be allowed to.
Putting a cap on games makes it not only boring as hell but takes out a ton of the fun.

20k LP is less than one field of wheat.

My thoughts exactly, since each harvest is 36 lp. your field'll be 555 square tiles

I get the 100k LP mentioned with about 280 plots of wheat.

even less if you add the lp for straw hats!

36 LP for harvesting, 36 LP for replanting, about 90 LP for making hats, about 90 LP for making flour.
So that's about 250 LP per plot of wheat (at 360% learning)
Add another 100 LP per plot when crafting bread dough, and another 140 for making Pirozhikis out of that, then you get to 500 LP per plot of wheat harvested.

For my 280 plots of wheat, at 400% learning, that's 155555 LP every harvest, if I have enough chantarelles and onions.
So, 20k cap, like suggested in the OP, is absurdly low, and would be gamebreaking for me. I'd harvest an hour, and log out, because doing anything more would gain me nothing, except some foodstuffs.
