    About purchased

    was just thinking right now while reading the front page

    thought - players could buy new songs from other players at a lower price

    player 1 - buys the song from the shop for 100000k

    other small new players buy from player 1 for a lower credit amount

    result - some veteran players could earn credits / new/poor guys could get songs/ and some social interaction on the way

    so if there are going to be like 20 new songs in purchased and everyone will be a 20k buy so only few could actually buy them all
    and those few could half/risk makeing a profit from buyers

    could be done with the challenge/transfer system a mix of them both..

    /end thought

    So like pirating? I am kind of confused on how this would work.

      Why?

      Just sell the song in the shop for the same price.

      Fair to everyone.

      This isn't capitalism.

            whatever in my imagination its pretty cool

            say theres going to be 1mil worth of songs to buy in purchased.. like 50 songs..so no one person could buy them all except few. then everyone could buy from their friends using this in game system ..
            where you write the user name..
            pick the song write the credit amount like the current transfer system..
            then the other side gets a accept/decline in game message for this deal
            buyer gets the song cheap - seller get some credits - everyone buying from everyone..seems nice

              what if the point is that 99% of the people won't be able to buy them all?

                down with communism, you gotta work hard in this capitalist society to make a living out of a measly max 40 credits per song. that's nothing at all nowadays, nothing at all.earn the songs yourself! lol

                  yes currently there is not many songs to buy so you can earn them yourself

                  my suggestion there is a different system that will only work with a big mass of songs to purchase so many it will still be hard to get them all and you will still have to earn them.. by getting a large amount of credits like it is currently


                  50 songs worth 1 mil
                  buy from the shop - full price
                  buy from a player who has the song - half price
                  for a player to get all the songs will still cost him 500k
                  only the dynamic will change to a community one with some profit options and strategy

                  also i think purchased songs should appear on the profile as tokens
                  4 token windows

                  Tokens
                  Still Tokens
                  Achievement Tokens
                  Purchased Songs with token graphics

                    So what you want to see is someone who happens to have a lot of credits being able to get a whole lot more credits for basically doing nothing. Not sure how that's a good idea.

                      If they "sell" the song, that would mean they don't have it after someone else has bought it from them. Also, if someone bought the song from someone else, at half price, then someone buys the song from them, wouldn't they just completely make all their credits back from that.
