Don't start that blame game again jr...instead how about letting the people who change your avatar and title enjoy their purchase for a week or so.

It was a joke.:wink2:

But it was my user title, and I left it there until I changed my avatar later that night. Which didn't go with the user title, so I changed it too.

Don't worry, it was a admin who did it that time and didn't pay for it, they changed it manually.

I have a concern with the gifts option, fun as it is to play with the new store. We seem to already have issues with the perception of cliques, and this system is going to perpetuate the problem. I liked the awards system which seemed to be recognition from the community for certain agreed-upon reasons rather than personal messages on display. Besides... ain't enough vcash on the Planet to make badges for all my friends here. :wink:

Not that we're taking a vote or anything, and even if we were, we should probably continue to try things out for a while. But FWIW, I'd like to see us consider doing away with this particular option, or setting an expiration date of just a couple of days.

I completely understand your point, but this is the "dead season" as far as Buckeye football goes which obviously serves as the core foundation of our community. If we are going to roll out a new set of features that can be percieved as both fun and distracting this is definately the time of year to do it instead of say..scUM week.

The new "toys" will definately garner more attention now as they are new but just like most toys we recieved as children the excitement wears off and we also find ourselves drifting back to our core interests that don't fade after a few weeks of use.

I personally think a time limit would probably be in the best interest for the gift icons but I also think we should let there be a bit of a trial period with the new features before more permanent tweaks and policies are implemented.

I think you have a good idea here. Another option would be a 5 gift maximum, show who your real buddies are as they rush to gift :wink:

I don't want to get rid of it though because it's a feature normal members can use that can let them show respect to another poster, such as how we can award GPA's.

Well, here's the updated feature list. I believe all options are now listed.


eStore

1) Points Options

Bank
Money deposited in the bank will acrue at 2% interest. Money in the bank is safe from Theft.
Cost: None
Tax: None
Expires: No expiration
Usergroups: All

Summary: There is no cost to you to deposit money in the Bank. There is no 'tax' charged for this transaction and no expiration to the event (money deposited stays there indefinently). All Usergroups may access this feature (registered members, mods, sr. mods, admins, etc.)


Donate
Cost: None
Tax: None
Expires: No expiration
Usergroups: All

Summary: This will allow you donate some points to another user. There is no 'tax' charged for this transaction and no expiration to the event (money transferred stays there indefinently).


Thief
Cost: Currently, we believe that a failed attempt results in the loss of the amount you attemped to steal. Where that money goes is unclear at the moment (probably back to the bank?)
Tax: 9.75%
Expires: No expiration
Usergroups: All

Summary: This will allow you to attempt to steal some points from another user. 'Tax' IS charged for this transaction and no expiration to the event (money stolen or lost stays there indefinently). Success rate for theft is 15% and the max amount you can steal is 100,000. You lose 5 rep points for a successful theft and 3 rep points for an unuccessful attempt.


Buy Lottery Ticket
Cost: 500 dollars for the daily lottery and 1000 for the weekly lottery.

Usergroups: All
Max Tickets: Purchase a maximum of 5 tickets per daily or weekly lottery

Summary: Try your luck at the lottery to win some points/money. 'Tax' IS charged for this transaction and no expiration to the event (money won/lost there indefinently).

The current daily lottery pay out is 21,683.90 (starts at 10,000). I assume this number is adjusted as money is added/deleted from purchase of tickets.

The current weekly lottery pay out is 100,000 (starts at 100,000). I've seen no change in this number. Could be the low number of tickets sold or simply a 'capped' payout.

Well, that's it for now. There are some other features to cover, but above is all the purchase options currently available. Of course this is all subject to change. Clarity may alter the specifics of any of these options and there is still much daily useage information that is still unknown. Please add that as it becomes available.

Some final information on points and purchases. There are several other categories/settings that I didn't list. They (generally) are ways that the point system can be multiplied for various reasons (points per thread, per thread view, per reply). Safe to say they are such small amounts as to make their discussion irrelevant. Other omitted setting have little bearing to end users of the system.


eBux Settings

Paycheck Period? Weekly (specified usergroups can be assigned a weekly paycheck)

Points For Registering? 1000

Points For Birthdays? 200

Points For Referral? 50

Points Per Profile View? 1

Points Per Posted Character? .0001

Points Per Good Reputation? .0001

Points Per Bad Reputation? .01

Points Per Poll Creation? .1

Points Per Poll Vote? .05

Points Per Thread Rate? .5

Points Per Calendar Event Added? .5

Points Given for Adding a Profile Picture? 100

Points Taken Away for Removing a Profile Picture? 150

All Attachments Cost 0 Points

Bank Interest Percent - 2%

Bank Interest Interval - Weekly

Bank Interest Interval Resets on Deposit



eStore Settings

Senior Member Age - 55

Senior Member Discount Percentage - 10%

Loyal Member is Registered for X Days? - 120 days

Loyal Member Discount Percentage - 8%

Item Refill Interval - 172800 seconds or 2 days (not sure if this option is overridden by other eStore settings as most of those show a weekly refill)

Federal Tax Percentage - 3%


Again, these settings are subject to change at any time.

Maybe we should charge people 10 points for starting a thread and increase or decrease that depending on the rating the thread receives. If the thread gets a rating of 5 stars you get 100 point, 4 stars = 50 points, 3 stars = -10, 2 stars = -50, and 1 star = -100. If someone is out of points they can't start a thread. That would keep donny away forever because he would never have enough points to start a thread. It just seems like rewarding people for starting threads is a bad idea.
