Donations, bank, shop. - Posted By ashkir (ashkir) on 2nd May 09 at 12:29pm
vForums has an awesome additional profile fields feature. But, I'd love a banking, donation, and perhaps shop system to go with currencies if we set it up that way. I know this seems like the standard JavaScript request, but I think it would be awesome to have this a built in functionality to general boards or RPG boards that would enjoy them. Perhaps advance options in Additional Profile Fields?
A lot like the PHPBB mods would be awesome. I like the donation system the most for points/currencies though.
Well, I think this speaks for itself Oo.

If i remember correctly, i think some sort of currency system was talked about some time ago, though i don't think anything came of it at the time. Ross can confirm as my memory is shocking

Whats wrong with doing everything yourself? Sure I guess if you have a really large forum, it'd be hard for several staff. For my forum, I have an Item, Weapon, and Magic shop. It's a small forum, and easy to manage, but I manage it myself.
It may be a good idea for a huge forum. But for a small forum, I think 1-2 staff members would be able to take care of it.

i love the idea of a donation system and stuff... Its a very great feature for any RPG forum, and even some general forums, so i'm up for it and unlike what DM was saying, i have to say that small forum or big forum, its not as easy to maintain as he seems to think
Though i have to say there is a perfectly good code taht was made for probards that would work if someone would take the time to convert it, though it wouldn't work with the additional profile option unless someone did some recoding to have it do so, but it would only check for select varaibles, so you wouldn't be bale to have your own money name.
