[Query] Store

Should there be an option where we could actually utilize the medium of Gold, Rings, Points, etc., and have a "Store" where you can purchase certain items, like a custom made trophy, rank title, colored username, Graphic request, or anything else someone could come up with? I do not know if I support it, thus, Site Discussion.

I don't really care much.

You aqre very welcome. Glad I could do business with ya.

I'm pretty sure you don't understand. Sarcasm.

Depends on how you get the moneys.

I would like it

Depending on how many posts you make, and I'm sure it's adjustable in which forums you get however many currencies.

I like this idea very much, but implementing it could pose a great challenge.

Like, you get gold from your posts/topic activity or something. Then you can use that gold to upgrade your profile by "buying" info fields or upgrading your trophies or something.

BTW, Zezzy your sig pwns.

Finally I can blend my ultimate avatar with my ultimate Death Note.

and that note I made at the bottom: "...Because he knows"


Well... I'd like to see you take a whack at it.

Excuse me for going off topic one post.
It's just so creepy. He's behind this glass (which I imagine to be a one-way mirror), and that creepy smirk! GAH!!!
It reminds of... Santa. Like how he always knows whether you're good or bad? I always thought that Santa used like a telescope that would see through walls and could actively monitor everything I did, and that freaked the crap outta me. Sure, he has his bugs and his hidden video cameras, but when it comes down to it, nothing can escape his raw intuition.

Interesting, I never thought of it that way. I wrote "He knows", because when I first saw the picture it looked like he was slightly sad, like this is a banner of him being so well thought out that he knew Light was going to kill him, so this is L's banner of "I know when I'm going to die.....

*Slight smirk... heh heh..."

Because he knows all. It's a nice tribute in a way. Okay, unless you have reply to this, this is my last off topic post. :P

GAH!!! I can't resist!!!

Does he really look sad? I think he looks as goofy as he did when he first met Light in person, and was, err... "making friends" with him. Near the end, when he was nearing his final moments, he seemed much more neutral, not his usual goofy, smiling self. As in, his speech got slower, more dramatic, and he didn't do all of the normal L'ish things such as spinning in his chair and generally acting like a kid.

In that sense, I had thought of that pic as from earlier in the timeline, when he was in the middle of investigating (hence his peeking into a window spy thing).

But of course, pictures are meant to be open for interpretation.

This is a misunderstanding. I interepreted this when i first saw it, when it was a much smaller image, and I could not clearly see his mouth. But, I standy by my note: "because he knows" for two reasons. One, because he knows when he will die, and two, because he knows exactly what you are thinking at this very moment... secretly peering into your mind.

This is a very good idea actually

I agree it should be made.

It does sound like a rather interesting idea, but it still could pose a small problem. Seeing that they would recieve this through posts, some members may begin to reply with spam just to increase their rank, which we do not need.

I specifically said, it's a possibilty with points that you can alter the forum on how many points you get. It depends on whether it's an option or not.

I missed that part. Still though, although we could control how many points a user can recieve for every reply within the specific section, such as one point for each post within Random, some users could still send spam replies within other areas where replies would give them a larger amount of points.

I see your point. Well, still. The seller could be obligated not to sell to spammers. It's not like the buyer can do anything about it. It's the seller's choice to give it to him or not.

I like this idea, and I approve of it. Like others, I just wonder about the execution of this feature though. I personally think a Forum Store is one of the most unique features to have.

If people do spam to get points just don't count the spam posts as points

Uniqueness, certainly. I've never seen any other forum where going to the forum itself is like an MMO.

Also, on the issue of spam, it's not as if the store will have anything really worth spamming for. I'm thinking maybe like 200 posts for like a trophy, or maybe some amount for a personalized title under your name.

There are a lot of forums like that.
