Points Store

First topic message reminder :

Hey Guys
Over the past few weeks, there has been a lot of talk about points and what to do with them. I think that an automatic points store should be made so Administrators don't have to spend their time doing point exchanges over the admin panel for people instead of enhancing their forum. I believe the points shop should include things such as this:

• Username Change
  
• Buy a Rank (A little field to type in the rank they want, the rank can added to the ACP)
  
• Buy a Signature (For forums like ForuMotion that only allow signatures for staff)
  
• Buy a Home (A HTML page of their own that they can get made/make themselves as like a home. There could be a link in their posts and profile like a little contact button with a home on it. I've seen something called "NeoHomes" on a forum called Neoseeker, and they seem to be a great success)
  
• Buy a Social Group (Create a group that they can manage, it can be anything they want like "Xbox Lovers" or "Horse Riders", etc.)
  
• Buy a Coloured Name (Simply place the user in a group that has the colour they want)
  

I understand that it would be hard to make these things happen automatically, so I've come up with an idea. The points can be automatically subtracted from the user. The admin(s) of the forum will recieve an E-mail telling them that [Username] has bought a [thing] and you need to [do something]. Here is an example:

Dear Clug,
Hrtxf has just bought a coloured name and you need to create a group in the admin panel with the colour #5babe8 as the colour the usernames will be.

Thanks,
Automated Email System

I think this would be a great idea and would make points a lot more useful in forums.

A points store? Yes, a use for those points. I agree, we need this. It's much better than handling a lot of requests manually.

Thanks for all these votes! We HAVE to almost be there.

BUMP! Come on everybody, there's more than 49 members on ForuMotion! We need more votes!!

Bump

BUMP.

I've voted yes This always made me a sucker to come back to forums if they had this king of thing

Awesome... thanks for the vote

bump

Vote Yes.

Nice Idea. Is this for 'spending' points on these stuff?

Seriously, forumotion should have this, it would make them that much more popular if they did.

Thanks for the votes, and yes to Wellbe6.

BUMP. Come on Forumotion, we've got like 60 yes votes!

Voted yes as well. Would make things a lot more easy.

Got my vote i am sick to death of going in and doing all the work my self and if im not in for some time it gets a back step

so this would help a lot

other sites have this so why Don't we ?

Awesome. Thanks for the votes

Another BUMP. We're getting close to 100

HELL YA!

Yes for the point system

T-Up! The points store module is very interesting in most of vBulettin Forum. why not make it on our forum?

I like the idea minus this:

# Buy a Home (A HTML page of their own that they can get made/make themselves as like a home. There could be a link in their posts and profile like a little contact button with a home on it. I've seen something called "NeoHomes" on a forum called Neoseeker, and they seem to be a great success)

# Buy a Social Group (Create a group that they can manage, it can be anything they want like "Xbox Lovers" or "Horse Riders", etc.)

We're getting closer and closer to 100

Voted yes. Great idea.

Awesome 20 votes until 100!
