Suggestions of other things we can buy with FC's

Postby Netherrealmer » 21 Feb 2020, 12:31

We use FC to buy advertisements but we should have other ways to spend it. I hope these features will be considered.

For 100 FC a person can have their articles or discussions pinned for a week. If your topic is pinned, old thread bumpers cannot bury your creation. Make it a buy one take one deal.



For 2 FC, a person can have their article or discussion with no response to get bumped back to page one.

for 10 FC a person can personalize the appearance of forumcoin whenever they log in.

If you look at the list of ad opportunities Fergal has posted, there is already one in place for this that has been available but practically unused for years:

Sticky Ad
Stick your thread in one of our forum sections.
Only $1.50 for one week or $3 for one month.

You can always bump your topic back to page one at no charge just by adding content. How many would take the added effort to look up and write in a request to spend FCs in another topic to do the same thing?

It will be interesting to see a lot of new features once CyberFreak completes all testing and installs the site upgrade. No idea if it will include anything for this option, but it may be something he can consider.

I tried bumping my own zero response thread, it didnt get bumped. So yeah I am willing to lose 3 fc if we have an option to bump them if someone makes a bumping spree of a banned member's discussions.

It looks like the most lucrative deal.Many new joinees can avail this deal at the expense of a little bit of forumcoins to get a second chance to promote their article.

Take a look at my user icon. That is a gif image. It is small, but it is next to my name in every post and it is not at any extra charge. Many other members also use gif images instead of a still picture. Just look for gif images and use the one you like for your user icon image.

You're right!
Maybe we could pay FC or reach a milestone of FC to get a bit of flavor text under our usernames.
For example, instead of "Community Moderator" we could get "ForumCoin Fanatic" or something like that.

Maybe FC should start offer and some hosting service for FC. I see we can buy domain but hosting could attract more webamasters or users to start their own projects and not being scammed.

I suggest we have a market place. Where you can have verified vendors approved to list their products. Then have the ability to click and checkout. Then FC can act like escrow, to hold the payment until both parties are happy.

Because as it stands, it's all dependent on the trust you have for the vendor. A very risky affair.

Please consider the bumping for FCs because there are members here who mass bumps old topics which buries newer topics to the point they wont get a fighting chance. Its discouraging to make a new discussion if someone buries it in page 3 minutes the moment its made.

Thanks for the suggestion fergus1234. Are you suggesting that we give members the opportunity to bump their own topics in return for a ForumCoin charge?

New discussions needs a fighting chance especially with members who bumps 30 old discussions in a row lurking around.

Users are able to bump their own topics (in most if not all sections) by using the "Bump topic" feature at the bottom of your own topics

I think you have to wait 48 hours since the last post in the topic and if you bump it and no one replies, you can't bump it again until someone replies to prevent users bumping topics every other day repeatedly.

Thanks , It's a life changer. I have better fighting chance now if someone decided to bump 30 discussions and bury a new topic I made or a topic I want to discuss.
