The Currency System

Over the next few days we will be introducing a few unique features to Blackstar, some of which the EC will be more than familiar with. These are a Cashmod, which is basically a points system where people get currency for posting, and a Store Mod where you can sell items, such as a one page story made by you or some other kind of creative work. Al can explain the system much better than I can, but needless to say, I feel you all will enjoy this system.

Well, the store's are up, but don't go rushing off just yet. We are going to do some modifications to them to make them even more usefull, so they are still only quasi done.

So can we start creating stores yet or should we wait until the system is done?

I have a few ideas for things to sell already.

Edit: Woohoo, just earned my first gerbil!
I shall keep him, and call him squishy and he shall be mine.
He shall be my squishy.

Sorry to double post but can I suggest a slight simplification of the money system?

I can deal with things like earning Yen

58.68 for a post but when I earn Yen

0.040000000000006 for editing one it gets a little silly.

Edit: Also what do these modify buttons on peoples profiles do?

Modify is a mod only feature, it allows you to modify a person's cash...so in theory if someone did something on yoru board that you disapprove of, you can fine them 500 Yen

.

And why it's carrying so far is beyond me, but I'll check on the settings.

I assumed it wasn't deliberate. Thats a little random even for you.

And now it says I've exceeded the alloted amount of posts and won't earn any more.
How am I supposed to fill my gerbilarium now?

(For that matter how am I supposed to buy the gerbilarium? Those things don't come cheap.)
