vBCredits

[Blank101]

If you've been on the forums in the past few days you've probably noticed a new donate button along with a credit count of 0. This is because we have installed a forum modification called vBCredits. Beginning now, you will be able to earn, trade, save and gamble virtual credits.

Now there isn't much use for the credits (yet), but the next patch will be including some new features to make the credits more worthwhile. This system is entirely open, so you can decide on how you want to earn credits. In general, the best way to earn credits is to find your own way to support Pawn. This system may change a lot over the next few days as we tweak everything to get it right.

How to earn credits:

-Activity: Earn 5 credits every day just by logging in.
-Thread views: Every 100 views of your thread earns you another credit.
-Thread replies: Every 10 replies of your thread made by other users earns you another credit.
-Contest winnings: Moderators have the ability to give out credits. You can earn some by participating in official Pawn contests and tournaments.

Special: Members of the usergroups (Pawn Assistants, Tech Team, etc..) are on a payroll of 10 credits per day for their services and support to Pawn.

How to lose credits:

-Infractions: Infractions received will multiply against your credits. You will lose 5 times the infraction points. The more severe the infraction the more severe the credit penalty.
-Reversed credit earnings: Any credits earned can always be reversed by moderators. Spam posts that are deleted will not only deduct the credits you earned, but also remove what you earned from your account. For example: If you make a post and earn 1 credit but then the post is deleted you will lose 2 credits. Spammers be warned.

How to trade credits:

-Donate: To donate credits to another player you can use the donate button located on the player's profile or beside any post they have made.

Note: There is a 5% tax for all donations.

Banking:

-Checking account: Used for transactions and temporary storage of credits. There are no fees associated with moving credits through your checking account.
-Savings account: The savings account is used for long term savings. Every 30 days you receive a 5% interest bonus to your savings account. Maximum storage size of 5000 credits. Transferring credits to and from your savings account invokes a 2% fee. There is also a waiting period of 1 day for deposits into your savings account with a cancellation fee of 5%.

Raffles:

-Purchase a 20 credit ticket to be entered into the weekly raffle. The winner will be selected randomly on the Saturday of every week. You can buy as many tickets as you want.


Keep in mind that moderators can track all trades and earnings. If you try to cheat the system you will be caught and penalized.


**EDIT** I have removed the 200 character bonus credit because of the posts on the map making forum. Map codes are very large.

**EDIT 2** I have lowered the usergroup paycheck rate from 20 to 10. 20 was a bit high.

**EDIT 3** I removed the post and thread awards of 1 credit. They were creating too much spam on the forum. Also, the referral bonus has been removed as well.

[Bonk]

[Nightmare]

[Stonch]

Cool,

There is going to be alot of spaming going on now lol.

[Hurrikhayne11]

i just wish people with the high post count at least got their credits from the beginning. :(

[Chickletman]

Get ready for the trolls.

And thanks for the update.

Rofl, tis a shame I left teh usergroups D:!

[Professional]

What's the use of credits, what do we get from it besides respect =D

[Pook]

Finally. Now people can have sig shops and get money for making it. Thanks.

[niceguyeddie]

buying and selling GFX and thats about it.

[watsurface]

Thanks for the new feature Blank!

[brohana]

What do you get from the raffles?

[DaMan]

Now there is actually a point in this crap. :)

[Bonk]

Wait, won't this amount to more spam?

[Chickletman]

Blank, can we get credits for past accomplishments D:?

[brohana]

Blank, can we get credits for past accomplishments D:?

Having about 5000 credits would be nice.

:D

[kj446]

Thanks,Blank!!

[Chickletman]

Having about 5000 credits would be nice.

:D

rofll, I wont even find a use for them, but I want them all!


I want them ALL!!!! >:0

[duh13]

What can you get for them?

[SketchZ]

Thanks Blanket. :\


Anyway you can make a donation bot.. so we can give away credits when a team wins a tournament/map of the week/sig of the week?

[Hamzter]

awesome, but i noticed one HUGE flaw.....

its gonna encourage trolls and spammers..... =/

hows this gonna be prevented?

[WhiteRanger]

Watch these noobs start spamming the forums now.

[Bonk]

Make sure to use them wisely.

[Da2Shae]

Sweet system blank!

Why dont we have the reputation system on these forums?

That'll increase the amount of people trying to help each other.

[Brandon0104]

That answers my question. =D

[kingralph100]

Sweet system blank!

Why dont we have the reputation system on these forums?

That'll increase the amount of people trying to help each other.

Ya great new thing and also thats would be nice with the reputaion system and stuff

[quickkillerz]

YES, so since im in 2 usergroups, does that mean i get 40 credits a day?

[Dylan]

Pretty nice addition!

[Pook]

Wait, can you go negative in credits?

[Bonk]

Wow this is very cool
ok so what doe sit mean when you donate does that mean that you lose your credits when donating to someone?

Duh. Like donating to charity. If you donate you don't keep your money.

[Hurrikhayne11]

YES, so since im in 2 usergroups, does that mean i get 40 credits a day?
that's pretty nice if you do.. lol.
i get 20 though. :p

and pook, hopefully they don't go to negative, but i think they can since it subtracts for infractions.

[Kau]

Thanks so much. I wonder what the credits will be for. More fun for pawn. YAY!!

[wut]

This is a bad idea for pawn.

Credits/Money are really only good for gfx sites,

where most people are more mature.

[ReaperPlaya]

This update is teh 1337!

BLANK FOR SUPER ADMIN! :0

[xPsychopathx]

It's gotten to the point where I don't want to use forums as much as I used to.
It'd be much better if you could give credits for kills instead. This is just bad.

[Timeline]

this ounds really cool!

[UreOnMyHitList]

nice job
pretty cool update

[M1dnightCobra]

THIS IS GOING TO BE SWEET!!
lol thanks blank...

[luka102]

[airsoftman03]

Thanks so much Blank!

[Puffer]

The "Statistics" tab in our profiles is still broken.

[BladeXI]

Impressive I hope everyone will have fun with this feature, thanks blank :)

[DaMan]

The "Statistics" tab in our profiles is still broken.
Yea, we need that fixed. It's getting annoying.

[Nightmare]

[MEHELLO]

Thanks Blank!

[OmegaLemming]

[NuMbA]

AWESOME!!! i want to have more credits than everyone

[spamband]

Yea, that would be really cool.

[LiteMare]

I should have tons of credits :)

I think moderaters should have Infinite Credits

[Souless]

LOL Wow
What do we do with them anyways?

[Ryuk]

Blank said that the credits will have a use after a future update. I wonder what the credits will be used for.

[Garlics]

Seems like the game has gone to a different level I really like.

[Transcend]

This is causing a lot of problems. I hope what the credits are actually used for is useful.

[Garlics]

How is it causing problems? Maybe When you have lots of credits it can be used to have an advantage over people.

[spamband]

He is right.

[Garlics]

He is right.

Thanks It's true we might need it.

[henry535]

so the question is....

WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE CREDITS?
buy signatures O_o

anyway, i cant wait till you add new features to this :D

[whynotman]

Im still a bit confused about this. But I like the sounds of it all. Cant wait for updates. :D

[Hurrikhayne11]

You're right, Alvandmonkey and Modalex trolled their way up to the top with over 90 posts.
I think a couple of infractions would be a good idea.

[Nightmare]

im happy to see the edit about the 200 character bit been removed. is it cause i kept saying how map codes would rape the system? :D

[Hurrikhayne11]

im happy to see the edit about the 200 character bit been removed. is it cause i kept saying how map codes would rape the system? :D
or even saying huge words..
i was actually considering the huge words lol.
like really really long words. D:
well it is good it's taken out.
and wow, every one of spamband's posts were spam to get on that top 10 credits list..

[Ryuk]

and wow, every one of spamband's posts were spam to get on that top 10 credits list..
lawl, big words would have been a pretty good idea to get posts with over 200 characters. For example I can say,"My most favorite dish in the entire world is Lopado*temakho*selakho*galeo*kranio*leipsano*drim* hypo*trimmato*silphio*karabo*melito*katakekhy*meno *kikhl*epi*kossypho*phatto*perister*alektryon*opto *kephallio*kigklo*peleio*lagōio*siraio*baphē*traga no*pterýgōn."

There, I have a post with over 200 characters. XD
Good thing Blank101 took that out.

[xxweedxx]

If that isn't spam I don't know what is ^^^^
besides from this post =)

[Nightmare]

i agree with hurri's comment on spamband though, hes done the spam, now all thats left is for him to be band ;) im so awesome at plays on words :O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! try for 200 !'s. worse that ur attempt at spam huh?

[alvandmonkey]

i agree with hurri's comment on spamband though, hes done the spam, now all thats left is for him to be band ;) im so awesome at plays on words :O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! try for 200 !'s. worse that ur attempt at spam huh?
omfg that is too funny lol. Any more rhymewhymes :D!? spamband trolls more then anyone I know. isn't it funny that he is unban when blank releases a troll update lol.
You're right, Alvandmonkey and Modalex trolled their way up to the top with over 90 posts.
I think a couple of infractions would be a good idea.

Ok I didn't even troll and that post is a troll
and also I just post as I see a topic that I like I don't post for credits...As you can see I don't brag on how much credits I got...
Posting is just my thing.

[Ryuk]

XD, I was just showing an example of how it could be abused.
That's an actual word, btw.

[Ravin]

Wow.

[spiket]

If you've been on the forums in the past few days you've probably noticed a new donate button along with a credit count of 0. This is because we have installed a forum modification called vBCredits. Beginning now, you will be able to earn, trade, save and gamble virtual credits.

This system is entirely open, so you can decide on how you want to earn credits. In general, the best way to earn credits is to find your own way to support Pawn. This system may change a lot over the next few days as we tweak everything to get it right.

How to earn credits:

-Activity: Earn 5 credits every day just by logging in.
-New Thread: Earn 1 credit.
-New Post: Earn 1 credit.
-Thread views: Every 100 views of your thread earns you another credit.
-Thread replies: Every 10 replies of your thread earns you another credit.

Special: Members of the usergroups (Pawn Assistants, Tech Team, etc..) are on a payroll of 20 credits per day for their services and support to Pawn.

Transferring credits to and from your savings account invokes a 2% fee. There is also a waiting period of 1 day for deposits into your savings account with a cancellation fee of 5%.

Referrals:

-For every 2 referrals you sign up to Pawn you will receive a 5% bonus to all your credit earnings. Maximum of 25% bonus. Example: If you signed up 10 people for Pawn then every time you make a post you get 1.25 credits instead of 1. Be sure to tell who you are signing up to fill you in as the referrer in the registration page.

Note: There are certain requirements to make sure that referrals are legitimate, so signing up a bunch of your own accounts will not work.

Raffles:

-Purchase a 20 credit ticket to be entered into the weekly raffle. The winner will be selected randomly on the Saturday of every week. You can buy as many tickets as you want.


Keep in mind that moderators can track all trades and earnings. If you try to cheat the system you will be caught and penalized.


**EDIT** I have removed the 200 character bonus credit because of the posts on the map making forum. Map codes are very large.


I Think This Is Going To Be A Great Idea!

[Hurrikhayne11]

it's going to be a little harder to post and earn credits now.. but at least it's stopping the spammers.
hopefully people don't go and start making random threads about it not working now.
just pointing that out. >_>

[Leonardo]

Darn. Now I can't go for 1k. I have to wait everyday for 5 credits. Lucky for me, I got people with credits. :D So they can donate to me.

[henry535]

i never got 5 credits for logging on, and never 10 credits for PA :(

i really dont care much bout the credits,
thing is,
they should remove alvandmonkey's credits...(spammer)
he probly spammed and made noob accounts to donate credits to him :(

[gunerysergent]

Thanks blank, the new updates witht he credits are well. I did want the pay-check to be a bit higher though. Like at least 15.

[alvandmonkey]

will the credits come back at all?

[Chickletman]

will the credits come back at all?


too much spam on the forum. Also, the referral bonus has been removed as well.

Wow, nice going Alvand, your spam ruined the new update!

[alvandmonkey]

Wow, nice going Alvand, your spam ruined the new update!

Wow dude it was a question ok. Noone told me if they were getting back up and also it isn't just me that is trolling I can name plenty more people that are right this second. For example Tehoutlaw.

Wow dude it was a question ok. Noone told me if they were getting back up and also it isn't just me that is trolling I can name plenty more people that are right this second. For example Tehoutlaw.
He's not nearly as bad as you...but whatever, we'll have to deal with the consequences whether we like it or not.

[alvandmonkey]

He's not nearly as bad as you...but whatever, we'll have to deal with the consequences whether we like it or not.

Yes he is he is so much worse in like 15 of his posts yesterday he literly wrote spam spam inside his post. And I avtually write stuff so no. And if I spammed don't you think I would be banned already?

[niceguyeddie]

Your both just a couple of mavericks- I mean spammers.

[whynotman]

I think this is a good idea, and pawn is at least gettin an update so stfu ppl and let Blank101, and JP do what they do best. If you dont like it LEAVE.

[boomy]

This sounds pretty cool. I just have one question, if you can track how ppl do and what they do with this, you guys should be able to stop hackers from playing and ban them for hacking.

[Pooshonmyshoos]

How do we end up getting something we don't need before we get something we need. . . Like an automatic picture resizer.

[alvandmonkey]

I think the credits should go bye bye
All it does is cause some lag trolling and spamming
For some users the credits are like weed
ADDICTIVE.
And it makes them want more and more and more of them.

[WhiteRanger]

He disabled it..


Finally.

[TheCriminaL]

dude it got annoying like i had 332.... before this hole giltch thing i think i should at least get mine back... its kinda dumb i actualy think they should just take credits away

[alvandmonkey]

dude it got annoying like i had 332.... before this hole giltch thing i think i should at least get mine back... its kinda dumb i actualy think they should just take credits away
A few of those whoever was on your account before took like 100 away from me and gave them to you somehow.
And I had 253 So yeah...

[alvandmonkey]

Thanks for this update Blank101, I need help i dont know who sends me these credits and what does the raffle thing do?

Sorry dude but blank has taken away the credits for right now.
And who knows when they will be back.
And the raffle was for winnign credits.
It is like the lottery in real life.
You pay for the ticket and then a drawing then someone wins the money. And the credits WERE going to be for buying stuff.
IT was basically for money.

[pacyaw]

maybe you can use credits for buying weapons lol (yes i stole this from CS)

[EaEaEa]

[Hurrikhayne11]

what does cridts do what's so special about them?
the credits can't do anything right now, except be donated and entered in raffles in your user cp.
there is no specialty to them, yet.
but we are hoping in the future, either they are removed, or they will actualy be able to be useful.

[Brenndann]

thanks blank

[Bojandu]

Thanks Blank thats great and all, but how do you deposit your credits into the bank?

If you've been on the forums in the past few days you've probably noticed a new donate button along with a credit count of 0. This is because we have installed a forum modification called vBCredits. Beginning now, you will be able to earn, trade, save and gamble virtual credits.

Now there isn't much use for the credits (yet), but the next patch will be including some new features to make the credits more worthwhile. This system is entirely open, so you can decide on how you want to earn credits. In general, the best way to earn credits is to find your own way to support Pawn. This system may change a lot over the next few days as we tweak everything to get it right.

How to earn credits:

-Activity: Earn 5 credits every day just by logging in.
-Thread views: Every 100 views of your thread earns you another credit.
-Thread replies: Every 10 replies of your thread made by other users earns you another credit.
-Contest winnings: Moderators have the ability to give out credits. You can earn some by participating in official Pawn contests and tournaments.

Special: Members of the usergroups (Pawn Assistants, Tech Team, etc..) are on a payroll of 10 credits per day for their services and support to Pawn.

How to lose credits:

-Infractions: Infractions received will multiply against your credits. You will lose 5 times the infraction points. The more severe the infraction the more severe the credit penalty.
-Reversed credit earnings: Any credits earned can always be reversed by moderators. Spam posts that are deleted will not only deduct the credits you earned, but also remove what you earned from your account. For example: If you make a post and earn 1 credit but then the post is deleted you will lose 2 credits. Spammers be warned.

How to trade credits:

-Donate: To donate credits to another player you can use the donate button located on the player's profile or beside any post they have made.

Note: There is a 5% tax for all donations.

Banking:

-Checking account: Used for transactions and temporary storage of credits. There are no fees associated with moving credits through your checking account.
-Savings account: The savings account is used for long term savings. Every 30 days you receive a 5% interest bonus to your savings account. Maximum storage size of 5000 credits. Transferring credits to and from your savings account invokes a 2% fee. There is also a waiting period of 1 day for deposits into your savings account with a cancellation fee of 5%.

Raffles:

-Purchase a 20 credit ticket to be entered into the weekly raffle. The winner will be selected randomly on the Saturday of every week. You can buy as many tickets as you want.


Keep in mind that moderators can track all trades and earnings. If you try to cheat the system you will be caught and penalized.


**EDIT** I have removed the 200 character bonus credit because of the posts on the map making forum. Map codes are very large.

**EDIT 2** I have lowered the usergroup paycheck rate from 20 to 10. 20 was a bit high.

**EDIT 3** I removed the post and thread awards of 1 credit. They were creating too much spam on the forum. Also, the referral bonus has been removed as well.

[Kryssx]

Don't ask to be a moderator. Because it ruins all of your chances of being one. And Blank101 won't care if you give him credits or not. He can give himself credits if he wanted to.

[XD99]

he really could if he wanted

[sellon]

[TheCriminaL]

They are for buying things in the future. You cannot buy anything yet but you will be able to in the future.

[TheZombie]

[xyzradio702]

What are we saving credits up for? weve waited for weeks

[Hurrikhayne11]

What are we saving credits up for? weve waited for weeks
Nothing yet but donating to people and entering them for raffle tickets. (20 credits a ticket)
Just keep saving. :o

[FusiouS]

Well I am sorry chick but you are wrong. Ban me so you don't have to face your error.

Keep in mind that moderators can track all trades and earnings. If you try to cheat the system you will be caught and penalized.

That shows you can not cheat the system, it does not say that you can't transfer YOUR credits from one of YOUR accounts to another one of YOUR accounts now does it?
So I demand crim be unbanned, he did not break a rule at all.

If I get inf or anything for this oh well, what are you going to prove, that you can give infs? Scared to admit you are wrong? EXACTLY

You can transfer your credits from your alt accounts. What rule is broken here? I honestly don't see what the big deal is about credits and how it could give you such a big ban I say just take them away.

[Chickletman]

You get 5 credits a day for logging in. He went on alts(Ips matched) and gave himself credits. That is exploiting the credit system. I gave him a cheating infraction, Firstmate extended the ban. Deal with it.

[JamesHuang12345]

I really don't know where the donate button is.

[zagert]

donate button is next to the number of credits the user has.
