Hi, i'm new here. How does the points system works? How do i purchase something with points? The F.A.Q section doesn't really help much other than for requesting stuff. I saw posts where the author puts up an item for 1000pts and people in comments were posting "+500pts, pm me". I'm really confused to what's going on. Can somebody explain it to me in detail how it works? Thanks in advance and sorry, english isn't my first language.
January 28, 2023 at 11:08 pm #1919901I’ve figured out how to get points but what i’m confused is getting an item i like with points. I’ve seen posts for items where people in comments offer points below what an author puts up for. Is that a bargaining or some sort?
January 28, 2023 at 11:22 pm #1919912@lucianlink The "author puts up an item for 1000pts..." is the request section of the forum 🙂
Every offer (+500Pts etc) in that thread is a point reward for that particular item from XY members ( it's a prize pool 😀 )The "PM Pls" is just a formality, the filling on the forum happens mostly in private messages 🙂
If someone has that item, they can send a DL link to the offerers via a PM, and the members will send back their point rewards for it (it's a private method, so the DL link won't be public for the whole world). Of course, the Filler can post that item right away on the main blog as a fully public post (but the reward will a bit different like @ethiopia said)
IF you want to FILL something - The best method is to check the forum, if there is a thread for that X item, send the PMs to the offerers, wait a few days - so they can send the rewards to you, then post it on the blog as a public DL.
This sticky thread is covering the forum request fillings: ( this is what you found 🙂 )
January 28, 2023 at 11:32 pm #1919916IF you would like to have an item:
1, Check the public blog (maybe it's already there)
2, "Search the forum" (right side of the forum), if there is a thread for it, add your reward (+500Pts or something) and wait till someone kindly fills it (just make sure that you have enough points to cover your offer/reward)
3, If the thread is already filled and closed, but the item is not on the public part of the site, then PM the filler:📣 REQUESTS: How can I get a Request Item once the Request is Filled & Closed?
4, If there are no threads for that item you can start a request thread for it.
