I have a brilliant new forum idea! Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Peep this. Post counts turn into something that we can give and recieve. It could become a kind of currency.

So say someone on the forums helps me out or agrees with me on something. I could repay him by giving him a couple hundred posts. Then, his post count would go up by whatever amount I give him, and mine would go down accordingly.

The possibilities are endless!

I'm bloody serious about this! I'm sure someone has the knowledge to implement such a feature.

What a dumb idea.

Then post counts become meaningless.

They show how veteran someone is on the forums...

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Post counts are meaningless anyway. A person used to be able to spam his way to various titles.

Maybe veterans would get the most anyway, cos they have had longer to do nice things and get given them. No-one would give away vast quantaties anyway, because post-count would still be a nice thing to have.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Bribery, extortion, special "favours" to mods...think about the possibilities.

Got spare money?

Yeah, and like if you're about to be banned, you could have the option of getting banned or paying bail in the form of post counts

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

We once had the "Apolyton independent nation", where the unit of currency was @ and the starting wealth for everybody was determined by their post count.

Perhaps we could determine who the veterans are by looking at the date they registred.

Just a silly idea.
