    It's a forum. It's not an economy.

    Want credits? Earn them.

    I'm really like the idea of say, divide everyone's credits by 10 or something.
    In no way that's stealing, as EVERYONE gets their credits divided.
    Either that or take off the last digit out of everyone's credits.

    Right, and don't buy them.

    Just stop the buying of credits for a while, while using some of the other credit deletion methods.

    Yea because that's fair for everyone.

    Your current credits: 1,256
    Minus last digit: 125
    Credits removed: 1,131


    EBK's current credits: 100,000
    Minus last digit: 10,000
    Credits removed: 90,000


    Quite a difference.

    How about you stop giving credits for posting, and maybe link the Arcade to it? Say like, 1st place will get you 15, 2nd 13, 3rd 10, 4th 8, 5th 7, 6th 6, 7th 5, 8th 4, 9th 3, 10th 2 and 11+ 1. This way, people would be limited to gaining 15 credits PER arcade game they play, as you can only hold a single score.

    People hack the arcade.

    Plus, this forum isn't based on the arcade.

    Dividing credits from members would be horrible for those like me who hardly have any credit intake. I don't post a whole lot, or if I do, it's in a crew topic whereas nothing is gained. I get credits by accepting "jobs" or making a graphic at my little shop. I have two orders right now actually.. got them via PM. Heh.

    Charging for shops & auctions sounds good, but I don't think sapping current members' credits is any good, or fair. Moderators get paid right, so I'm sure none of them would mind the sap, but the rest of us aren't as credit happy or fortunate for that. ^_^

    the rate should ghet back to 5$ =1000 creds.

    You can do something with the marketplace imo.

    Start a shop - donate 100 creds .

    Have a auction - 10 % or 50 creds go back to GR.

    no more creds for posting .

    And i think for the SOTW's , ask 20 or 30 creds put everything together and take half for GR.

    I think more people will work on ther skills to when they have to compeet to gain creds.

    Like logos and temps and sigs.

    And about the last digit . its like some1 esle allready stated . That really isn't fair for the most of us .

    And i think the post "pwerfull" members gained them buy making great work . Like sigs , avas , ....

    thats just my opinion.

    Me.

    Actually, the staff on this site do not get paid, from what I was told.
    @ Dhrone - That's what I said in my post, lol.

    Is there anybody who can add a plug in to charge a "tax" on every transaction that takes place on Gamerenders? Either it would be a certain percentage of the credits sent OR a fixed amount; I think this would be a good idea as well as charging a certain amount of credits for opening a shop, etc.
