Can someone please explain the following to me:

1. Donate. What exactly is the purpose of that?

2. What is "Bank" and how do you use it and what do you put in there? I see people with points in the "Bank". What's that for?

I think Donate is used to give the pointless some points, like if I had a whole lot and you didn't have very much I could give you some.

Bank is just like a savings account of sorts, you put your points in the bank and it earns interest, cause when you buy stuff it charges tax!

Yep! You earn 2% interest on your points in the bank.
And I love all of you but I won't be donating any points!

Or, if you want to thank someone, say a siggy maker, for doing something special for you.

I am getting one point for posts sometimes and 5 for others. Why is that? Ok it doesn't seem to be doing that now.

Have you seen the glowing thread sticky? I think it looks like that. I want the colored username!

check out Anne's profile.... or if you go under vbplaza "most sold" you can click on view on the right of each product, you can see who bought what and for how much....I am saving up for a cool user name too, it's like 1000 and some points, plus tax

I havent' had that happen, but I know the other day Susie wasn't getting any points for her posts- I'd PM a Mod

It just happened to me now when I posted in Fur Pics
- do we only get 1pt for posting there instead of 5?

Do you get one pt for starting a thread? Hmm I got 1 pt twice when I had started a thread. First time I was confused with the odd # of pts. It could be the interest too? hmm

We're still tweaking the system, so you may notice some changes during the process. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience!
