Credit/Store System Live [Part 1]

[EpicNPC]

EpicNPC now has a Store/Credit system which will be fully functional by the end of this weekend. The first part is up and running so all members are now able to earn 'Credits' for certain forum actions. These credits can then be used to buy account perks, such as custom titles, colors, username changes and more.

The store will be setup tomorrow and I'll a full list of what can be purchased will be posted once that is setup.

Members will also be able to purchase credits via Paypal if they wish to enable certain perks right away, this will also be implemented tomorrow.

Members can earn points for the following

1 Credit for every day they login (every 24 hrs)
1 Credit for every post, poll or vote
3 Credits for every new thread
10 points when you refer someone and they complete the registration process
50 points for all new members
-10 points if you are given a warning or infraction

I'm still testing this part so if you see any errors with the credits you should be earning, please post here.

I had negative credits as well, until I just posted something in the forums.
Oh well. Seems like a good idea to me though

 

[EpicNPC]

There's a bug with new threads. The credits aren't given and each time a user edits the thread, they actually lose points. It'll be fixed and credits will reset once a solution is found.

Love the idea...Epic getting more epic.

Cant wait to see this feature fully functional. Good work.

 

[EpicNPC]

Ok, the credit system is back online and should be working now. The bug with threads has been resolved, but I will give it another day or so to make sure everything is working as intended before moving on to Part 2 and implementing the store.

Please report any bugs here.

sounds good!

Lovely!

 

[EpicNPC]

The credit system is being temporarily disabled for the rest of today.

 

[EpicNPC]

It seems the Credit system is causing another addon to not work. I've disabled the credit system again until this issue is resolved.

UPDATE: Currently it is back on as I'm testing a possible solution.

 

[DefineValue]

Interesting idea looking forward to seeing what kind of perks and stuff can be purchased.

 

[-Xtra-]

Will they be reset again? The credits?

 

[EpicNPC]

No, the credits will not be reset from here on out. But I had to disable the system again as the fix did not work.

Ok, Mike. Have an issue. I referred 2 new users that bought from me offsite. They both complete registration and I did not get the 10 credits each. :C

 

[EpicNPC]

PM me their usernames. They have to add you as a referral during registration.

Weird, for some reason you are loosing points for activity. Mike will have to take a look and see what's going on.

 

[Sakura]

So someone who randomly signs up will have 50 credits, but I have -1, soon to be zero, for having been around for 6 years?

Ok.

 

[MMOCutie]

I don't understand why I have -9 credits......

 

[EpicNPC]

It seems in-activity was causing members to lose 1 credit for each day they were inactive, I've removed that.

 

[EpicNPC]

New Threads credits have been temp disabled for troubleshooting purposes. They will be turned back on tomorrow.

Ok.

This. I would like to have the same 50 credit boost as new members.

 

[EpicNPC]

Unfortunately credits cannot be pro-rated, so everyone starts at 0. New members get 50, which might seem like a lot now, but it isn't. You'll get a better idea of the value of credits once the store is implemented.
