Re: The GF Store?
 

So something costs like 5000 points and all you can do is post a reply at 1 point per message, is their any easier way to earn points?

Re: The GF Store?
 

Stealing could be considered "easier" to some than posting, but it is quite a risk you take when you try to steal. Sorry for my laziness, but I am just going to copy and paste the various ways to get points:

I take that back, if you visit another forum you could advertise GF and get 300 points per member you get to register. However, they might not take kindly to advertisements, just like this forum doesn't unless it is in the proper forum.

oh cool :D i tried stealing....didnt work i lost all my green gems and now i got -42 karma :cry:

how long do you have to leave money in the bank for to get interest? i have left mine in the bank for bout a week now and its still the same

Re: The GF Store?
 

Sorry, n0e asked everyone to keep it a surprise for everyone else who didn't know. :)

However, I think there must be some sort of bug because lots of people have reported leaving the points in for a few weeks and not gaining anything. However, I have. :uhm:

Re: The GF Store?
 

I wonder, does adding points into the bank reset the amount of time it needs for interest?

Re: The GF Store?
 

a surprise is right.....a surprise to see all my karma and gems dissapear

Re: The GF Store?
 

I don't think so. I have deposited points and it still keeps giving me interest the next day. However, withdrawing points is a different matter...

Re: The GF Store?
 

say if you got 1000 points and you deposit it and you get 10% interest you would get 100 points added into your total, wouldnt you?

Re: The GF Store?
 

Theoretically, yes. Though my interest at times has been as high as 400 points a day, yet I have never deposited 4000 points in one day. I think there is some sort of hack in place that adds it all up and divides it up and gives you the interest everyday. At least that is what I have been able to make out.

Re: The GF Store?
 

so if i had 3000 points in my bank i would be getting 10% more onto the total and the next day the total would be like 3300 points and 10% more?

Re: The GF Store?
 

Well, I am going to say you would have to ask an admin because I truly don't know how the interest system works, or if it is working for others at all. I can tell you one thing, you have to wait a lot longer than a day before you gain interest.

Re: The GF Store?
 

oh i see.....im starting to hate banks :( lol

Re: The GF Store?
 

Your 16? Better learn soon :lol:


The store is awesome! Well... all except for losing all my karma down to like, 6 reds. :vikki:


I think the points per post should be two or three.

Re: The GF Store?
 

I don't know about that. It would be slightly better if you could get it to calculate the size of the post you made. Obviously just saying "Lol" is less of a post than a well thought out opinion in the pub that takes some time to read.

Then again, those who make really good posts tend to care less about what you can do in the store. In the end I think the current system works best. I really didn't like the idea of the store at first, mainly because I thought it would end up abused with people trying to flame each other through custom titles and banning people for no reason. I have yet to see any of this happen so I am all for the store.

Re: The GF Store?
 

i like it, we should keep it i think :)

Re: The GF Store?
 

Oh I absoloutely agree. Keep it. Yea, it's a good idea to make it calculate how long your post is, or even to give you, say, 2 points per 50 letters or something.


But do you get points if you post in Spamming Forum or anything?

Re: The GF Store?
 

I don't think so. But rember karma is tied to the points now. So fo every point of karma you get you also get 5 Store pts:uhm:. Now the only thing worth buying it the cahge cutom title:(

Re: The GF Store?
 

Spam forum you get nothing since it does not increase post count.

Re: The GF Store?
 

Guess i missed something... :confused:

Re: The GF Store?
 

My opinion is, that you should only have the store add something to the site, not take certain things away. That way, people who aren't interested won't be affected, and those who are can indulge themselves. Some people aren't interested in the darned thing, yet they are now being forced to buy a title which they used to be able to use freely. Your title is actually useful, for example, if you're on holiday you can make sure everyone knows by changing your title accordingly. Either lower the price of the title to next to nothing, or just make it as it once was. Now that you can't buy your way into AM, and the standard members can't go around brandishing colours and tricking n00bs into thinking they're mods, I have no other complaints with the store.

Re: The GF Store?
 

Everytime I think of referal's, I get scared because I dont want to get suspended.

Re: The GF Store?
 

I think I found out what the interest is.
