    As none many of you noticed, there is another label under your name titled 'Points' then a number. That number is... well, how many points you have. Every time you post a message, you earn 1 point (0 points in the Off Topic section). Every time you post a topic, you earn 3 points (1 point in the Off Topic section). Every day since you've joined, you gain 1 point. Every time you become friends with someone, you earn 3 points. Simple, right?
    Right now you're probably asking: "So, what do I do with my points?" Well, you give them all to me. this is a shop, where you can waste spend your points on things like custom titles (of your choice), name changes, and other stupid nice things. Here is the list of things to waste your points on buy.
    ___________________________________________________________________


    • Custom title - Minimum of 4 characters, maximum of 12 characters. - You type your own custom title and send it to us. If we approve, it will appear under your name whenever you post. You may change it more than once, but each time you change it, it will cost you. Price: 150 points for the first change, 100 points for the rest.

    ___________________________________________________________________

    • Name change - Minimum of 4 characters, maximum of 15 characters. - You can change your name. Be careful! You can only change your name once! Your old name will appear under your old name like this:


    New Name
    (Was: Old Name)

    Price: 170 points.
    ___________________________________________________________________

    That's all there is, for now. Don't worry, though. More stupid nice things will be added as you earn more points. If you have any questions, post it here!

    Thanks,
    Aero

    You could do something where you can gamble some of your points to try to make more Very Happy

    Like pay 5, and you have a 50% chance of making 5 more tongue

    Another forum I was at had something similar...
    although there was a glitch where you could deposit points in the bank without actually losing what you had in your 'pocket' so everyone had tons of points

    well no one really used the points...
    there was also an army system where you could by weapons and men and stuff
    no one ever used the stuff though
    I think a few people changed their names and that's pretty much it...mind you there weren't that many people to start off with either

    how about if for say 100 points you can put an image into your sig

    for 5000 points (or whatever) you can get your own page on the website

    Great idea, this should get people posting more. But custom titles only 120 points? Make that a little higher, it isn't hard to get 100 points.

    You already have over 100 points because I made it so that Moderators start off with 100 points already. But I'll raise it a little higher.

    Unfortanutley, they were cancelled due to Zeus's request. You can still buy a custom title saying that, you know.

    Site owner? Heck no. Head Moderator? Well, I can give you the custom title, but you won't actually be a head moderator.
