    I was thinking, why doesn't the forum have a shop where you can buy credits via paypal? Given how popular the site is, and how most times people post in the auction room asking for credits, it would be a cool addition if the site actually had like a stock exchange sort of thing, where people could cash in or out there credits...

    i.e. person x could sell his credits to the site for $x... then those amounts of credits are automatically on sale for anyone to purchase with real dollars or whatever....

    Im just thinking of a way of doing it, that you guys would agree with, really i don't see a problem with rich people spending dollars on credits if its going to help the site in 2 fold,

    1) the site itself makes lots of money
    2) the site gets the credits back eventually through default of them going in circulation till someone sells them back to the site lol.

    Could work like a currency exchange where you always Sell back to the site for less than you buy from the site, (but not LOTS less, but enough so the site always makes a profit worth keeping the system running).

    Plus for people like me and a few others, who would be buying credits purely to donate them back through GR mafia, would be again 2 fold for the site.

    It wouldn't create a false economy, people could still make auction threads or whatever and hope, but overall would work for both the customer and the website as a whole.

    Where?

    I don't mean people selling credits in forums, i mean a pure link on the site where GR itself sells credits direct via paypal, if that already exists, then this thread can be closed, however, Its not in the gr store.... that i can see nor any of the bank options.

    Nor is there an easy to see link to it.... which if it exists you wouldn't think it would be hard to find.

    Dude, I'm pretty sure gamerenders won't buy it's own credits. This really won't happen, and if your wanting to purchase some credits, you can always post it up in the offer/request section.
