tip system?

Re: tip system?

Or Sprite, you could set a limit to how many times one user can tip a certain user for a particular post. That way, it might be easy to track. Don't forget, this could also show through the credit transfer log that way it's easy to track people trying to abuse the system.

Perfect. That would work great I think.

Re: tip system?

Here's something I've run across in a few other communities, see what you think.

Instead of giving credits, users can accumulate "karma" by what other people think of them. People may "praise" (give good karma) or "smite" (give bad karma) to users that make posts that they approve or disapprove of. This has a few benefits over the credit transactions:

-It can be disabled for the Garbage Bin much like post count
-Credits are not cheapened any further than they already are
-Limitations on who can give karma when may also be enacted
-When giving karma, the user may add the reason for doing so in a confirmation screen

It's worth a shot. One site I know that uses the system is http://www.overworldrp.org

Karma will be whored, with 5 credits it gives it a little more meaning.
Who gives a shit about "karma". If I wanted karma I'd go FC Planet KARMA.

Re: tip system?

This would be pretty cool I think. Maybe add a field to give more credits if it was really helpful. I am assuming that the tips come out of our own credits.

Gives an incentive to give good posts. We probably should do more 1day bans for people begging for credits to balance.

Actually, I change my mind.

It lets posters know who the more respected posters are, and who's to be trusted. Five credits is absolutely nothing. That's like the difference between someone doing something for you for free, and them doing it for you in exchange for 1/5th of a penny.


+1 support. If the credits thing goes with it, then obviously it would take the credits from your own pool instead of creating the credits. Maybe make it so that only Veterans can give/take karma.

I like this idea.


Please tip me if you agree....

Re: tip system?

Yeah there would need to be something to prevent people from using a bunch of alts to up their own "karma".

Re: tip system?

should be 5, 25, 50. A fill in the amount type deal would cause too many problems IMO. If you really want to tip someone that bad to give them over 50 credits, there's always the FFR Shop.
