yeah,it would be a good idea to stop abuses !
for instance,to be able to give a cookie to a new member,this one should have at least more than five or ten posts,so the "welcoming cookie" would be cancelled,,and the newbie would be obliged to prove his sincerity to earn his very first cookie

i totally want a cookie because me and my sister are having a race Â :angry:to see who can collect the most cookies

~! do you know where i could find some members? please.~ :tong

First...don't use excessive emoticons in your posts. Second...do something worthwhile and EARN THE COOKIES. Don't beg for them. That's totally unbecoming a member of this forum.

This is a perfect example of "cookie abuse". You register to participate in the forum and NOT just to collect cookies (which aren't edible anyway).

maybe is a good rule to don't give cookies only for a poor reason... I give songs for cookies....

... But perhaps here are a lot of great people who want to make others happy

Nope. Only the administrators can 'eat' cookies. You do not lose one when you give someone else a cookie.

Eh... cookie abuse.

I've seeing them in other fourms.

The system here is different (no cookie loss).

If you post some and someone enjoys it very much, they may give you a cookie.

Tatasenko · « **Reply #52 on:** October 28 2006, 05:17 am »

i just wanted to ask a very essential question which is starting to annoy me...
is there any way to know WHO gave us a cookie?
i mean that sometimes i receive a cookie without knowing the one who has done this kind deed,and so i can't thank him properly

!

like said before,a cookie is a gift given to reward a member for something interesting he has posted,so by receiving a unknown cookie from nowhere it is like if someone threw away a cookie in a bin

it would be profitable to view in our profile the names of the generous donors

Arcademan · « **Reply #53 on:** October 28 2006, 12:07 pm »

We thought of that but I personally think it's better this way. Most people will tell you when they gave you a cookie but there are those who are shy about it. Any others agree or disagree?

Tenkuuken · « **Reply #54 on:** October 28 2006, 12:53 pm »

Being an anonymous cookie donor sounds fine, actually.

tsuki · « **Reply #55 on:** October 28 2006, 12:59 pm »

um...i agreed with Tatasenko-chan!! *hands up*
i dunno who gave me the first cookie!!
the second one,hack.<3.fly-chan gave me coz i helped her!
so,it is better if we know who gave us cookie in profile settings!!

Perhaps there could be a check box in the account setting of every member able to give cookies saying "Always include my name when giving cookies"? That way, if the cookie giver doesn't wish to be anonymous, the receiver will automatically know who gave it. That could also lessen the amount of off-topic posts with people informing about, and thanking each other for, given cookies (not that that appears to be a problem, but still). Also, when a non-anonymous cookie giver gives a member a cookie, a little form with the headline "I gives you a cookie because..." could automatically pop up, to be filled in and sent alongside with the cookie if the giver wishes to.

Maybe it's too complicated, at least the second part of my suggestion.

Tatasenko · « **Reply #58 on:** November 01 2006, 07:07 am »

you are right Ando,it should be normal to know the reason why we have received a cookie,and the member who has given us it should be free to reveal or not his identity,so everyone would be satisfied on the two sidesÂ

!

moreover,knowing who is the donors would be very helpful for the moderators to detect the abuses!
for instance if a newbie has oddly gained a huge amount of cookies in one go,the moderator would have the possibility to check his profile so as to find the cookies' traffickerÂ

so now it's up to you to decideÂ

And the question to follow would naturally be: are there big money to be gained in the cookie trafficking business?

Jokes aside, I don't really think cookie abuse is that major a problem here, but I, as not yet being able to give out the sweet things, feel that sending a PM or writing a post in a board with the sole intend of informing about a given cookie is a bit... too much. Some (optional) automatic thingie would be preferable.
