I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but I think it would be pretty cool if this forum had a currency system. I would like to have one!

Bad idea. We're not here to exchange play money. We're here to learn how to make real money.

I have to agree with Lpspider, as soon as all the lame mods start being install I feel this site will lose all credability! Personally a forum like this needs to meet only the core need of its users, which is:

Learning

Want to play games go to a teen chat forum

If you guys looked at forums that do it like NamePros.com you cans ee that they have "REAL Play Money" members there can buy not only upgrades, but also register domain names, donate to charity, it also can be traded for real money to paypal and acts as a currency/trade system

Yep, DNForum does this as well.

Sounds like an OK idea to me, not sure if many people would use it though.

**Slevin** · 08-02-2006, 02:06 PM

sounds good to me, especially if free domains are involved

**imported_Shan** · 08-02-2006, 06:19 PM

Sounds like a bad idea to me. Members would post just to earn points and we wouldn't be getting much quality posts around here.

**Lpspider** · 08-02-2006, 07:15 PM

On the off chance that this was implimented, it'd have to be backed by real money and careful planning. X points get you domain/hosting/advertising or cash or some such thing.

I don't know, still think it's a bad idea. Just my thoughts.

Thats one of the reasons why NamePros became so popular. If people can make money off this forum, I believe it would suite the forum name.

I actually think this is a good idea. NamePros has one of the best systems imo. I've done many many successful transactions with their NP$.

I think this would be a good idea, if the mentality of the forum wouldn't be to post and make money because of it, but to post to learn how to make money
