What if the forum had a store where people can buy things such as Change Username, Add Glow, change Custom title, buy there own forum and Change Avatars.

But we can get all that for free now.
I think you earn money by posting.
Well that wouldn't encourage spam.
For 10000E, you can buy administration.
Ok so you are telling me that we can Change our usernames if we want to for free with out asking the admins.
No. But a constant stream of changing usernames would become garish and annoying.
Message boards with money/experience systems are fairly irredeemable.
You should tell Jojo that.
While a system of some sort like that could, if done well, add some fun to the forum, it would be hard to implement. It would either be stupid, annoying, worthless, or just lead to spam.
EoFF should be like somethingawful after all
that would suck.
5c to post a usernote.
Cid would make some good money outta that.
I'd leave this place if such a system was put into place. So you better get cracking.
I'll give you 8 bucks and a half-eaten chocolate bar if you make me an admin.
If it was quarter-eaten you'd have had me.
Even my idea? :(Quote:

But I'm not recommending that for EoFF :p
Yeah, but that's...#unreal. The place for prepubescent 12-year-old girls and krissy.
I seem to recall you registering there :p
1. It encourages spamming to earn currency.
2. This is point number two.
3. User Names, Custom Titles, and avatars are already open to anyone (with minor restrictions) and glow text is very...unprofessional.
4. Its pretty stupid too.Quote:

That's true. We'd have to use real currency, though. None of that made-up Lord of the Rings stuff you guys use over there - I doubt Sean wants to get paid in gold dubloons or anything. By the time we're done, we could all be wearing gold plated diapers.
I thought this would be about selling EoFF merchandise, which is a good idea, but instead, it isn't. And now disappointment sets in.
The Lord of the Rings currency is hobbits. Everyone knows that.Quote:

Because prepubescent girls are funny. Plus, Kishi told me to take pics.Quote:

Hey, I'm still that ace! :D
Hey, I took designs for weeks. If you think those are unimpressive you should see the ones that didn't make it. -_-;
I am so getting my first kid the Unleash the Fury Onesie.
As far as I can tell I'm the only one who has ever bought anything from that store. It was an ED hoody :)Quote:
