Credits?

[JogaBonito]

Hey all, I noticed theres a new thing called Credits under my name

What is it used for :)

[Landazar]

They're trying to make it a form of currency.

[JogaBonito]

So what, you can buy stuff with it?

[Dlav123]

landazar how do u have so much?

[Skullcaptain]

Cause I traded with him long before the forum reset.

I lost my 145 fg :(

[Sophist]

"Credits" are the same as forum gold from the last incarnation.

Anyone who lost credits is encouraged to PM Administrator and it will get sorted out.

[Skullcaptain]

You're the Admin also right? Can you help me then?

[Immortal_Daemon]

It's a form of forum gold (fg).


Essentially it's an attempt to turn the site into a JSP-ish website, though there is obviously no point to it since JSP is the site people will use.
Not to mention you raise your FG by posting more. This means if the FG was ever to be used for trading, it would promote extreme trolling.


EDIT:
It is for this reason (as well as many more) that FG and the post counter are 100% useless for this forum.

[JogaBonito]

So basically....credits in this forum = useless?

You're the Admin also right? Can you help me then?

I'd prefer specifically business-related(ie real forum issues such as gold etc) PMs go to the Administrator account, and the general complaints / trolling / flames / insults / flirting / trying to sell cheap prescription drugs / etc be sent to my account.

[Nosferatu]

Well pretty much, yeah...you could always give them to me for free though(PLEASE).

[DarkPrinceLoki]

i dont even remeber if or how much fg i had before the reset.....
