Bank points? I always wondered what that meant under my points info. I have been trying to thank everyone who does fostering - so I look for the fostering people. Also, thanks to people who answer my dumb questions, etc. So, mostly I give thank you's.

I'm a spender and a giver - but since I post so often, I pretty much have points in the bank earning interest.

Speaking of which, it looks like you need some more points to buy some presents with.

I am a banker but they usually don't stay for long. I like to give gifts but I also love to donate to Tammy

I hadn't banked my points for a while but did so the other day. My gifting depends on the mood I'm in or if a post inspires me.

I spend my points too fast to save them up!
I don't really see a need to keep cyber points... I like to give out gifts to new people, people who need cheering up, or simply if someone is so sweet to me! I
LOVE
getting points and gifts from people, and I'm sure others do as well! It feels so good when your having a bad day, to get online and see someone gave you a gift- and someone cares

I am saving mine to go on a huge shopping spree someday. I have had a few people give gifts to me and also donate points to me. That makes you feel really good when you have someone to do that for you!!
So I bank when I think of it, so I can get the interest. Every little bit helps!!

I never have points long enough to bank them.
Plus, I just don't care to earn interest in something that is only cyber and can't be used in RL

Are you a spender or keeper?
I am a spender and LOVE to give out gifts to everyone.It makes my day to make someone elses a bit brighter.
I am a spender too, and I really love to give out presents, I buy them all the time.

I have been here awhile now and still have no idea what the points are or mean or what to do with them, so I just ignore them.

The vbPlaza Menu button at the top ought to help. You can save them, give them away, or more commonly buy presents for people. I see you have some, that's how you get them for people, with your points.

You can also buy fancy stuff like the names in different colors.


I've never banked them, I like to buy presents and I'm not a very competitive person. I get them when I get them.

How do you buy present for people, is that what those little icons are next to the person's post???

If you go up to the vbPlaza menu in the top thing (like User CP FAQ Member's List) and click "Give Gifts" you can choose a present and the person you give it to.

Then they get a private message saying they've gotten a present, and it shows up under their total posts, join date, etc. You have a birthday cake and a baseball.

I don't bank or spend them. I've actually never bought anything, for myself or someone else. It's just not a feature of this site that I've ever really explored.
