Forums Credits use?

[IDubHD]

Hey
So i through of the idea, what can credits be used as.

And i came up with the idea, that the credits could be used for revenue share.

So like for every 1000 credits you get like 2% revenue share
or something like that

What do you guys think about this idea? leet me know

I'm not sure whether Freedom! would do this as it would take away money from them for virtually nothing in return but hey, maybe they would!

I honest think it is a bad idea.
First of all; People would start spam the forums to get fast credits so they can higher their revenue for a few extra cents.
Second, there will be alot of work to actually make it work.
Third, then I believe the fact that having revenue shares individual from each user would make new users irritated.
Since they will have the 60% while some maybe have 70 or something

I would have to agree with @LifelessDane on this one, I don't think this would be good concept to do due to a number of reasons :-
1) First of all it wouldn't make that much financial sense to Freedom, as people could spam posts on the forums, and get higher revenue share, for little, or no work
2) It could lead to users making multiple accounts to share credits between them in order to get higher revenue share
3) It would have little to no benefit to those people not linked with the Freedom network
4) The implementation of this could be quite difficult to organise and arrange, as you would need to check credit amounts, also would these then be redeemed for the revenue increase or just automatically be given out to those with the set amount of credits?
5) Theoretically for people not partnered with Freedom, they could use this to rack up forum points and then join at stupidly high revenue shares

That was the point I made, exactly.

2) It could lead to users making multiple accounts to share credits between them in order to get higher revenue share

You can only connect one Forum account to one Dashboard account too though, so that wouldn't be a large issue.

3) It would have little to no benefit to those people not linked with the Freedom network

Well there would still be other rewards for them, also the Forums are there to get people to join to a certain extent.

4) The implementation of this could be quite difficult to organise and arrange, as you would need to check credit amounts, also would these then be redeemed for the revenue increase or just automatically be given out to those with the set amount of credits?

I think you should have to pay the credits AND Forum Staff would need to approve it (of course only if it gets added) whatsoever.

5) Theoretically for people not partnered with Freedom, they could use this to rack up forum points and then join at stupidly high revenue shares

I think 10% more or something would be a maximum cap for more share through Forum activity...
