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:

Quote:

There are a couple of ways to get points.
1. Posting
Each post you make gives you one point, every new thread is worth ten. For each view to your threads you get .1 points.
2. Stealing
In the store you can attempt to steal points from other users. Your chance of successfully stealing depends on who has the most points out of the two people. The defender is lightly more likely to prevent your theft with the new modifications to the system. If you fail you lose the points you tried to take from them along with losing 50 karma points. (As of right now the karma system is down)
3. Donations
Every so often you meet a really nice person who will donate points to you. These people are very kind because not only do they lose the donated points, they also are taxed 2% of the total cost. Oh, they also pay a base sum to donate in the first place.
4. Interest
Leave your money in the bank long enough and you will begin to collect 10% interest.
5. Referals
Refer to someone to this site and you will recieve three hundred points. Note, they must register and enter your forum name into the referer box.
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.

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:

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

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...

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?

Ensign Riles July 15th, 2004 06:03 PM

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?
